Presidential Gathering

All the living presidents gathered the other day, as you probably know. Here's a short video of Bush being awkward and Obama being awesome.

Here's a really depressing line from the article:

"All of the living presidents were last at the White House in 1981: Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter and the incumbent Ronald Reagan. On that day, all the presidents stood in a circle inside the White House, discussing news of the world. The dominant topic? Then, as now, it was the Middle East. "

New gameshow: Bush, Kennedy, or other!

I would really like to see a gameshow that asks contestants to listen to stories of idiocy and decide whether the stupid acts were committed by a Bush (W. Bush and Jeb leading the charge), a Kennedy (Ted, Arnold, and the various Juniors!), or a mere mortal (a la these guys). Just a thought.

P.S.- I always feel compelled to specify exactly which Bush we are talking about even though there is rarely confusion; this is simply a personal enjoyment of exactitude. That said, my fallback of 'W' has been taken by Oliver Stone. My solution: I will refer to our current president as either Walker Bush or W. Bush, assuming that not many will confuse either of those monikers with Herbert Walker Bush or H.W. Bush. I just really don't want to give Stone any more press than necessary because I can't even elevate that guy to hit or miss; having seen five of his movies I would only consider Platoon to be a good movie (the others I am thinking of are: Alexander, JFK, Any Given Sunday, and The Doors).
