What? Oh That? That's Just The Sound of Bill Clinton's Head Exploding

KABOOM!



It's the handshake heard 'round the world. Now call me skeptical, but we've seen the Israelis and the Palestinians stage this kind of thing before. I don't think this little gesture is quite as favorable as some might hope. When it's in one group's charter to destroy the other... well... we'll see.

On a related note, the Bush administration is sitting pretty freaking pretty right now. Let's tick off the counter, shall we?

1. Freeing the Afghani people (especially its abused women) from the Taliban? Check!
2. Holding democratic elections for the first time in Afghanistan's history? Check!
3. Booting Saddam Hussein out of power? Check!
4. Holding democratic elections for the first time in Iraq in 50 years? Check!
5. Keeping Americans safe from more terrorist attacks? Check!
6. Getting Republicans the House and Senate majority? Check!
7. Helping the peace agreement between the Israelis and the Palestinians? Check!
8. Lowering taxes? Check!
9. Rocking hard at speeches and press conferences? Check!
10. Making me proud (and more than a little enamored) of my President? Check!

Okay, #10 was a little personal (love you, Laura!). But if you think for a second that the Democrats are happy about this, you are SOOO wrong.
