Lack of Enthusiasm

By Sniffles

Was it just us, or did the Worst Person Who's Ever Lived seem particularly unmotivated in his White House appearance yesterday?

His weary delivery, his lackluster tone of voice, and his all-too-evident reading of a prepared statement made it nearly possible to see the invisible gun held to his head. We cats expected him at any moment to say that at least the Haiti earthquake has decreased the surplus population.

If there was another instance yesterday in which George W. Bush appeared interested and engaged, we cats missed it. In the meantime — and to paraphrase Dickens — we'd just caution Bush that in the sight of Heaven, he may be more worthless and less fit to live than millions like those poor suffering Haitians.
