QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Laura Bush on George W. Bush

The latest quote of the week comes from the Xanax Xombie, speaking about her husband, the Cuervo Corpse, a quip pulled from Mrs. X.X.'s Thursday interview with NBC's Brian Williams:

He is emotional. And, you know, he has a very soft side, which I know, of course, most people haven't seen, because he is a wartime president.

The emotional thing we know about: We saw the debates, including, most notably, the grouchy, snapping president. But the "very soft side"? How does that work with a purportedly steely-eyed rocket man? I mean, to me, "very soft side" conjures up commercialized images of toilet tissue and maxipads. Doesn't really jibe with the whole "mission accomplished," the "kind of guy you want to have a beer with" thing, does it?
