During my daily perusal of cnn.com this morning, I discovered this gem, courtesy of Jeb Bush.

TALLAHASSEE, Florida (AP) -- Florida Gov. Jeb Bush told a delegation of lawmakers that he had "some juicy details" about the sexual orientation of a missing Miami girl's caretakers.

During a meeting Wednesday, Bush implied that the two women, who had just been charged with fraud stemming from the investigation into Rilya Wilson's disappearance, were lesbians.

"As (Pamela Graham) was being arrested, she told her co-workers, 'Tell my wife I've been arrested.' The wife is the grandmother, and the aunt is the husband," Bush explained, using his fingers to indicate quotation marks to emphasize the word "grandmother."

"Bet you don't get that in Pensacola," Bush told his guests, a group of lawmakers from Florida's Panhandle.

An attorney for one of the two women called the governor's comments "outrageous" and said the women are sisters, not a lesbian couple.

Does 'Bush' mean 'braying jackass' in the original Latin?

*sigh*

I just came back from a 'business lunch'.

Heee!

I had more than my fair share of sangria. We ate a lot, and we drank a lot, and right now the last thing I want to do is work. So I don't think I will.

*grin*

GRRRRRRR

FOX, in their wisdom, has pre-empted Firefly and John Doe in the NYC market in favor of showing the Yankees/Angels game.

I normally wouldn't care who wins, but now, I hope the Yankees lose in a large, humilating way, just for spite.
