Malloy, on Tuesday, repeatedly referred to Bush's successor as "President Crazy."
What's the title of the song where Willie Nelson sings the words: "there's nothing I can do about it now"?
Barry let George W. Bush walk. Are any members of the clergy urging Barry to turn Dubya over to the world court? Barry has sanctioned the continued torture of Bradley Manning. Is it any wonder that Arianna Huffington didn't think it worth while to pay folks for material that disapproved of George W. Bush's political agenda? Wink wink nudge nudge. You go right ahead and rant about "war crimes" all you want.
If the nuclear accident in Japan precipitates the end of the world, there's not much use in trying to live blog the process. If it's just a big boo-boo that will intrigue historians centuries from now, there's no use wasting time scribbling out alarmist columns that will ring hollow in the future. What's done is done. Like the croupier says: "No more bets!" Just watch the ball bounce around on the roulette wheel, now.

It used to be that this columnist actually advocated a renunciation of George W. Bush's war crimes. Now, we hear the voice of Judy Collins, explaining the Barry Obama philosophy: "through many days of toil and strife, we have already found that grace . . . and faith will lead us home . . . when we've been there 10,000 years . . . than when we first begun . . . I once was lost, but now I'm found. Once was blind but now I see."
After all these years, it still boils down to what Howard said at the conclusion of "Treasure of the Sierra Madre:" " It's a great joke played on us by the Lord, or fate, or nature, whatever you prefer. But whoever or whatever played it certainly had a sense of humor! Ha! The gold has gone back to where we found it!... (Curtin joins Howard in boisterous laughter.) This is worth ten months of suffering and labor - this joke is!" or as Ned Kelly once said: "Such is life."
