Now we hear that Bush was "targeted for assassination by Marxist rebels" during his visit to Colombia. "No evidence" has been recovered of plots that "don't seem to have advanced very far," but so what?

Yeah! Terrorists hate him! Marxists hate him! (I thought we were supposed to believe there weren't any more Marxists, but what the hey, for old times' sake.) That's our guy! Brave and resolute in the face of terrorism and assassination! Yeah!

Remember what I said a couple of weeks ago about kiss the boot? Remember?
