Maybe There's Hope for Kansas After All

Are they still screening shrubya's audiences?

Perhaps this brightened their day a bit:

Someone asked Bush at a question and answer session at Kansas State University if he'd seen "Brokeback Mountain," since he's a rancher and all. Bush said he hadn't.

The president, clearly caught off guard, hemmed and hawed when asked his opinion of the movie.

Bush -- after some hesitation, and laughter in the audience -- said he'd be glad to talk about ranching, but said he hasn't seen the movie.

...The guy who asked the question told the president, "You would love it. You should check it out."

Check it out? He's practically living it. Although he's probably much more interested in the sequel.
