Perchance to dream

I was watching the National Memorial Day Concert on PBS this evening, and I saw that Colin Powell was in the audience. I couldn't help wondering if he felt any regrets about his testimony to the UN as he heard stories like these. Then I wondered if President Bush was watching, and I imagined a news story I'd love to see:

BUSH GOVERNMENT FALLS
President Resigns, Cites "Remorse"
Cheney Also Quits, Hastert Becomes President

Washington -- Tonight, George W. Bush announced via press release that he was resigning as President of the United States. The release stated that he had been watching Memorial Day events and was suddenly overcome with grief. It stated that his faith had been "badly shaken" by the heartbreaking stories he'd heard from widows of veterans, and that he recognized that the entire Iraq invasion had been a "misadventure." The release went on to say that Vice President Cheney was also resigning, as he recognized that he'd been the principal architect of the war.

The full text of the press release was unavailable at press time. More to follow.
