God, hes left as on aur oun.
Ouch.
Noted on the way to somewhere else:
US Sen. Edward Kennedy will receive the 2003 George Bush Award for Excellence in Public Service.
The award, which recognizes an individual’s or group’s dedication to public service at the local, state, national or international levels, will be presented to the Democratic lawmaker at a dinner ceremony Nov. 7 following a speech by Kennedy at Texas A&M University’s Rudder Auditorium.
[...]
Former President Bush has the sole discretion on who receives the award, said Penrod Thornton, deputy director of the George Bush Presidential Library Foundation. Thornton said he doesn’t think the award is anything other than a way for Bush to honor Kennedy.
“Knowing President Bush, it was more about personalities and contributions of the individuals and it didn’t have anything to do with politics,” Thornton told the Bryan-College Station Eagle for its Saturday editions.
Cutting 41 rather more slack than I myself am wont, Martial respectully disagrees with Thornton’s assessment. (Via Kevin.)
