ANOTHER SCANDAL FROM THE GANG WHO COULDN'T SHOOT STRAIGHT

Another day, yet another scandal for the Bush administration. Can this administration go more than a couple of days without the Bush ball o' yard unraveling some more? What could possibly be more fun for a liberal like me to watch, than one scandal, one bone-headed move, after another? The amazing thing to ponder is the President's approval ratings, inexplicably (and undeservedly) somehow over 30%. Obviously, there is a lot of stupid out there. Here is an excerpt of the latest from the Washington Post.

WASHINGTON - Randall L. Tobias, the deputy secretary of state responsible for U.S. foreign aid, abruptly resigned yesterday after he was asked about an upscale escort service allegedly involved in prostitution, U.S. government sources said. Tobias resigned after ABC News contacted him with questions about the escort service, the sources said. ABC News released a statement last night saying Tobias acknowledged Thursday that he had used the service to provide massages, not sex. Tobias has been Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's point man in an ambitious effort to overhaul how the U.S. government manages foreign aid, a key part of her "transformational diplomacy" agenda.

Just two days ago, President Bush lauded Tobias for his work in the administration leading "America's monumental effort to confront and deal with the HIV/AIDS epidemic on the continent of Africa."

Deborah Jeane Palfrey, who operated the escort service, was indicted on federal racketeering charges in February and has threatened to expose her high-profile client list. Palfrey has contended that her escort service provided clients with college-educated women who engaged in legal, sexual game-playing for $275 per 90-minute session in their homes or hotel rooms. Prosecutors allege she ran a prostitution ring.

I wonder how the administration is going to spin this one? HIV/AIDS RESEARCH?

And that is the "World According to Kimba."
