"I don’t give a goddamn," Bush retorted. "I’m the President and the Commander-in-Chief. Do it my way."

"Mr. President," one aide in the meeting said. "There is a valid case that the provisions in this law undermine the Constitution."

"Stop throwing the Constitution in my face," Bush screamed back. "It’s just a goddamned piece of paper!"

Andy Borowitz: TB Guy Tops Bush in New Poll - Politics on The Huffington Post

Andy Borowitz: TB Guy Tops Bush in New Poll - Politics on The Huffington Post: "In the latest sign of erosion for President George W. Bush's job approval rating, a new poll released today reveals that Mr. Bush is now less popular among the American people than the so-called 'TB Guy,' Atlanta attorney Andrew Speaker.

While the president's approval numbers have been in a virtual free-fall in recent months, few political insiders expected him to be trounced by Mr. Speaker, who has been accused of exposing airline passengers to tuberculosis.

Additionally, the poll results are historic in another way, since they mark the first time that a sitting president has been deemed less popular than a quarantined disease carrier."

This is great. When you think about it though, even if all of the people who were in contact Mr. Speaker developed tuberculosis, he still would have caused less deaths than Bush.
