Most Ridiculous Headline Of The Day (so far)
Le Menu d’Rapprochement: Spinach salad, Spinach Souffle, Baked Tuna au Spinach, Greek Spinach Pie.
Seriously, does Dubya thank for even one second that sucking up to the Donks will gain him anything at all? If so, he really is dumb as a rock. If you think the venom and bile from the Angry Left has been bad so far, you ain’t seen nothing yet. Supreme Court judges? NYET! Roll back tax cuts? DA! Cut funding for war in Iraq? MOST ASSUREDLY, COMRADE! Impeach BushCheneyHaliburtonCo? THE PROLETARIAT DEMAND IT! --- LEFTISTS OF THE WORLD UNITE! WE HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE BUT OUR MINDS! (giggle-snort-BARK!-BARK!)
Bush Invites Democrats To Lunch
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Wed Nov 8, 2006 1:29pm ET163
After voters delivered a sharp rebuke of his leadership, President George W. Bush made conciliatory gestures toward top Democrats on Wednesday, pledging to work with them and inviting them to lunch.
He invited Nancy Pelosi, the California Democrat who will become speaker of the House and Democratic Whip Steny Hoyer of Maryland to lunch at the White House.
Bush also plans to meet on Friday with Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid of Nevada and Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the No. 2 Democrat in the Senate.
Bush telephoned Pelosi and Hoyer, who hopes to become the House majority leader, early on Wednesday to congratulate them on their wins. Perino characterized the call with Pelosi as “very friendly” and said Bush also spoke to Hoyer, Reid, Durbin and the two heads of the Democratic congressional campaigns—Illinois Rep. Rahm Emanuel and New York Sen. Charles Schumer.
“In all of those calls I would say there was a strong spirit of goodwill and the president said that Congress has changed but issues don’t,” she said.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
