>Bush has been the weakest president in 100 years.... Not necessarily. I'm in the middle of Harding's biography. After like a month, he didn't even want to be President anymore! He just wanted to play golf and poker, drink scotch, and shake hands with people. And Bush wanted to ride his bike and run on his treadmill all the time. Could be they're twins. My favorite cookie from NYC: "At at a time when any decent baker should have been selling racially harmonious black and white cookies [edit.aka Half Moon cookies] by the truckload, one Greenwich Village bakery popular with celebrities and shows like Sex and the City has outraged neighbors by selling a "Drunken Negro Face" cookie in, um, "honor" of President Obama. [Video below.] A shocked customer tells My Fox NY that Ted Kefalinos, proprietor of Lafayette French Pastry, asked her, "Would you like some drunken negro heads to go with your coffee? They're in honor of our new president. He's following in the same path of Abraham Lincoln; he will get his." gothamist.com It used to be you could only get them in NYC and upstate, but now there are couple of delis in LA that carry them. My favorite snack would be to get a box of them and eat them with milk.
