Springtime in Bushland means misery

Ah, 'tis springtime in Bushland, when all Americans think of planting and renewal, of flowers and veggies, of surges, purges and splurges, of Gingrich and DeLay confessing to doing the extramarital "horizontal bop" whilst Karl Rove jokes about beheading small animals on C-Span and tries out hip-hop.

Nero! Grab your fiddle! We're in for a helluva hoedown.

Since the fish rots from the head down, let's start with Dubya's springtime dance of denial. It's sort of like doin' the hokey-pokey but with deadlier consequences. Warning against the Senate's attachment of timelines to a war appropriations bill, he actually said that such timelines would put our troops in danger. Because, as we all know, illegal and botched wars don't.

He also finally got around to visiting Walter Reed Hospital; a MONTH AND A HALF after stories broke depicting our wounded veterans sharing space with fungus, mildew and vermin. None of his folks were to blame, Bush said. "The 'system' failed you and it failed our troops and we're going to fix it."

This mysterious "system" is run by terrorists, no doubt. Worse yet, Democrats.
