When I was younger, I used to make up the silliest lies to tell my parents about what I was doing, where I was going, etc. I would deny blatant facts until I was blue in the face, even though I knew deep down that my parents already knew about things I was doing. Does anyone else feel that dubya expects us to pat him on the back and say, "It's okay. Mommy/Daddy's here for you. We know you messed up, but you're young, and that's what's expected of you..." All those in favor of having a grown-up president say "I". |
