Delusional Arrogance: Bush Forgives Gore For Election 2000
Mr. Bush made no comment
when the Nobel was announced, and today, the two stood silently, and a bit
awkwardly, during the photo opportunity.
But the president did personally telephone Mr. Gore to extend the invitation,
and the White House changed the date of the event so Mr. Gore could attend. Mr.
Bush’s press secretary, Dana Perino, told reporters the president is willing to
let bygones be bygones.
“This president does not harbor any resentments,” she said. “He never has.”

Steven King Interview
I just
filmed a segment for Nightline, about The Mist, and one of the
things I said to them was, you know, "You guys are just covering — what do they
call it — the scream of the peacock, and you're missing the whole fox hunt."
Like waterboarding [or] where all the money went that we poured into Iraq. It
just seems to disappear. And yet you get this coverage of who's gonna get
custody of Britney's kids? Whether or not Lindsay drank at her twenty-first
birthday party, and all this other sh_t.

going on is whether or not this cop [Drew Peterson] killed his... wife. And
meanwhile, you've got Pakistan in the midst of a real crisis, where these people
have nuclear weapons that we helped them develop. -
