An iconic report card

An iconic report card

A blog joke was born:


For those who weren't following the news of those days, it's hard to get just how giddy and sycophantic the press corps was toward these endless phony-baloney presidential photo ops.  The "secret drop-in" in the dead of night to serve the troops Thanksgiving dinner was especially bad.  And Atrios memorialized it with that "self-evaluation" report card (which had been in the news as an unrelated story).


*I don't know if everyone also recalls that the famous image of Bush serving the turkey was actually a picture of him carrying a decorative turkey centerpiece. The revelation of this fact evidently still irks the right wingers, which makes me happy.
