Scott McClellan always made me wince as press secretary. He didn’t have the smoothness and knowledge of Ari Fleischer. Tony Snow blew McClellan away in competency. Sour grapes on McClellan’s part I am afraid. One theory is that his mother ran for governor of Texas as an independent because the GOP wouldn’t support her (they supported Rick Perry.)
President Bush is in the great state of Utah tonight! He came for a couple of fundraisers for McCain. The first one was at a supporter’s home on the Avenues in Salt Lake City (by the Utah state capitol building.) He then flew in the Marine One helicopter to Mitt Romney’s house in Deer Valley for another fundraiser this evening. He will meet with President Monson of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. It is tradition for Presidents to meet with the First Presidency of the LDS church. Now I have to go do research and see if that one president before President Bush ever met with them...
And snugs, lots of good pictures of President Bush for you to post tonight.
Ah ha! Payback time then, eh?
