Of All the Horrifying Things George W. Bush Ever Said...

...this is hands-down, far and away the most horrifying.
President Bush campaigned today in North Carolina, where he...took a back-handed swipe at Senator John Edwards, the state's freshman Democratic senator and now Senator John Kerry's choice for running mate.

When a questioner in Raleigh noted that Mr. Edwards had been described as charming and a "nimble campaigner" and asked Mr. Bush to compare the one-term senator to Vice President Dick Cheney, Mr. Bush snapped back: "Dick Cheney can be president. Next?"
