Parting is such sweet sorrow. ...


A nice thing about orderly succession in a democracy is that violence is kept to a minimum. The incoming administration tries to keep a civil tongue on the faults those who previously led. One of the few recourses that waning leaders have is their Parthian shot.

I was duly surprized that "W" didn't say anything sardonic at his last press conference of his successor. I guess he was too busy trying to explain his mistakes.
