[politics]

Having professed at least a passing interest in politics, you might expect me to have something to say about the fact that president George W. Bush was visiting Canada this week. Well, it has been a source of some small amusement to me how the media (well, CBC anyways) and other politicians have gone a little crazy about the whole thing. I mean, really. He was only here for thirty hours: one day in Ottawa and half a day in Halifax. That's not enough time to conduct any business. He was just saying hello. Calm down, for heaven's sake. It's almost embarrassing.
