Bush's New Politeness Policy

As we described, President Bush mentioned the importance of civil dialogue, then later mentioned that his policy in Iraq is the only option. In fact, here's his latest greeting to Democrats:

Oh, cherished colleagues!
Oh, most amiable of adversaries!

Let my entreaties find favour in your able ears and wise countenances.

I humbly seek your acknowledgement of the remaining alternatives, which are but my way, and the highway.

Oh, learned advocates! Hear my plaintive plea!

The most excellent favour of a reply is requested by high noon, on the morrow; or, that you shall purchase safe passage out of town.

Your servant and the Lord's,

GW Bush
