snark capacity -- "stranger than fiction" doesn't even start to describe the irony -- but the procedure itself is very very important; I find myself wondering if any of the vets with traumatic brain injury could benefit from it. We've got a whole bunch of 'em in need. Whoever stages Bush's photo ops made a wise choice here -- at least, insofar as selecting a target that has significant value intellectually, medically and in a format capable of eliciting compassion. And whoever laid out the physical print page had a great sense of humor. ("had" 'cuz s/he is probably at Gitmo now, but likely still laughing his/her butt off in-between waterboarding sessions)
