Edgar Bergen to Leave Charlie McCarthy

According to the Wall Street Journal, Karl Rove wants to spend more time with his family – deep in the heart of Texas. Could the Bush boy’s boat be sinking so quickly that even the biggest rats are deserting it? Or is this a Cheney micro-coup – that will allow him to rule “unencumbered by the thought process” (as the Car Guys would say). In either case, the Bush boy is about to lose his brain (as James Moore and Wayne Slater call the bathetic malefactor). The image is startling but also dangerous: W running around like a chicken (hawk) without a head!
