False Note


Did you see George and Laura Bush on American Idol last night?

American Idol raised nearly $70 million for needy people around the world, which is a great thing, including money for victims of Hurricane Katrina. The Bushes took the opportunity to thank viewers for their generosity.

The Bushes may remember Hurricane Katrina, right?

It's a shame that the Bush administration bungled potential foreign aid to Katrina victims totaling more than $800 million. The Washington Post reported the story over the weekend. You can read more here and here and here.

D'oh!

Here's how I would rank last night's performances, from best to worst: Melinda, Blake, Lakisha, Phil, Chris, Jordin, Laura Bush, George Bush.

I know who I'd be sending home to Texas.
