Things are slow going this day after Christmas, so whilst you break-down boxes, put together kids’ toys and try to get your daughter’s latest Barbie out of the box, enjoy today’s ‘BushWhack’ing…

• Some people in Iowa are complaining about being inundated with political phone calls, ads and mail over the holidays. To them I say this, perhaps if you weren’t so damn full of yourself that you had to place your caucus on January 3rd, you wouldn’t be experiencing this. I guess what I’m saying is; get over it…
• CNN reports on what the Bush’s gave each other for Christmas… is this really what accounts for news nowadays?
• And have we mentioned? That it’s a SLOW political-news day?
