To our surprise and delight, there are consequences for carving great chunks out of the world's progress.
As you'll remember, some great news out of last week is that no publishing company is interested in paying good legal tender for stinky ol' George W Bush's memoirs, a sale that's been a foregone conclusion for most other modern ex-Presidents. Today, more great news: President Bush is being both ostracized AND emasculated by book publishers, as his wife, Laura, is reportedly fielding all kinds of multimillion dollar offers for her memoirs.

The Obama family has already been given delightfully awesome nicknames, and by "nicknames" I mean code terms the Secret Service uses to refer to members of the family, although since this is already leaked on the Internet it's not so much a "code" now and just more of an "awesome nickname," so my original point stands.
Anyway, all the Obamas have names now beginning with the letter R, and they are way better than those of the Clinton family, who were referred to as Eagle (Bill) and Evergreen (Hillary), or the Bush family which was Tumbler (George W.), Tempo (Laura) and Sheepskin (George Sr.).
If you guys ever want to use your ham radios to listen in to your Secret Service station, get ready for President-Elect Renegade.
The Republican National Convention attempted to match the star-studded DNC with a comedic routine by First Lady Laura Bush, who took to the stage to defend her husband's 8-year mistake.
'America is in the middle of a heated campaign,' she said, '… but you haven’t heard very many facts.'
'In honor of our nominee,' she continued, 'let’s call this a little straight talk.' The First Lady proceeded to tick down a list of President George W. Bush’s accomplishments, including the 'No Child Left Behind' education changes, freedom for Iraq and Afghanistan and HIV-AIDS relief in Africa.
'You might call that change you can really believe in,' she said with a grin.
Or we could call it a load of crock.

Here's the first picture to surface of Josh Brolin and Elizabeth Banks as George W and Laura Bush in W.
Nice resemblance; too bad the Oliver Stone film's script seems to have been written by a Freshman English major with a chip on his shoulder.
That wacky Ellen DeGeneres convinced Jenna Bush to ring her father, POTUS George W Bush, during a live taping of DeGeneres' show yesterday.
After some gentle prodding from Hollywood's most beloved lesbian and her wide-eyed audience, Jenna called the First Family's private telephone line for a chat.
Nervously waiting for her parents to get on the line, Jenna said, "They're going to kill me." Horse feathers! Everyone knows they only kill other people's kids.
Headline on Your Shoulders is extremely infrequent and, because of this, a winner wasn't announced for the last one, nor will it be. However, a winner will be announced this round. We promise. So take your best shot, because the photo is too good to only let the few here at Jossip have at it. If you're unsure what "it" is, it's First Lady Laura Bush among a breast cancer awareness group in the United Arab Emirates. It's a good cause, but the photo sure does look like these last seven years have felt. Good luck.
