Any comments on the Post Card size Letter from Bush* to Clarke

[Toots]

In Bush*'s own illegible scrawl. It was not on paper with the Presidential letterhead but an index card size scrap paper and it was a note from Bush* praising Clarke for everything he had done.It was an official reply to Clarke's resignation letter. Kind of throws a monkey wrench in their talking points that Clarke was un-liked and un-wanted. I found the note quite hilarious myself for the slovenly hand writing and the very undignified appearance. I was sort of surprised it didn't have doodling on it.

5. I believe that Clarke

Has a whole lot of CYA material at home (uhhh. make that undisclosed location with instructions on what to do with it should something bad happen to him, and an auto mailer plan set to mail it to every member of the press around the world if something does...which is the very least I would have in place if I were outing something like this)


I am changing my tag line to say - All edits always for spelling

6. Anybody here ever do handwriting analysis?

I don't know if there's anything to handwriting analysis anyway, but I thought it was sort of funny that Bush's handwriting had those ridiculously big, looping descenders.

I read an article on handwriting analysis a few years ago, and the only thing I recall from it is that big descenders are the mark of a big ego.

I thought that was sort of funny.

8. Wondering, How Many Words Were Mis-Spelled?

I'll give you odds, the unrepentant drug store cowboy mis-spelled
more than one word!

10. I don't know how but there are many brilliant minds here at DU

It was on MTP this morning, so I'm sure it will show up here.

11. The post card is standard issue

It is what Congress, Senate and WH use to write personal notes. It is enbossed and of very good quality. They use black or blue flair pens. Just because bush is a jerk that doesn't mean that the paper was not a very personal way to communicate. I would like to write him a note and say your a jack a.. bush.

12. It was standard Executive notepaper, apparently folded once

It's the same cream laid executive paper I'm sure every body in DC uses for VIP corresondence.

Nothing unusual about it.

13. To be fair,

Uncle Dick doesn't allow Bush* to use sharp instruments.
