I Are One...
(1)
An interesting 'exchange' between the press and the prez. I stumbled across this in The Wik several days ago:
"On August 2nd, 2006, during what would be the last White House Press conference in the briefing room before it underwent major renovations, Sam Donaldson shouted, "Mr. President, should Mel Gibson be forgiven?" – referencing reports of the actor/producer's alleged anti-Semitic remarks. Mr. Bush laughed and looked up to see who had asked the question. Bush joked, "Is that Sam Donaldson? Forget it...you're a has been! We don't have to answer has beens' questions." To which the famously outspoken and aggressive reporter retorted: "Better to have been a has-been than a never was."
Ever heard the expression, 'freak magnet?' I are one...
A video worth watching. Part of its charm is the music.
"Why I am no longer a Christian." I read an entire book on the subject many years ago (by Bertrand Russell).
