At the risk of beating a dead horse on this Canada-Mexico passport thing, here's a truly incredible comment from President Bush on his own administration's initiative: "When I first read that in the newspaper, about the need to have passports, particularly today's crossings that take place -- about a million, for example, in the state of Texas -- I said, what's going on here. I thought there was a better way to do -- to expedite legal flow of traffic and people." First read it in the newspaper? That splashing sound you hear is Condoleezza Rice and the entire Bureau of Consular Affairs being thrown over the side of the White House ship.
