Dick,

For your clever ways to "get Bush," I think no one commented because of basic flaws in the plans:

1. Unless you're a brain-dead vegetable, cf. Terry Schiavo, people are not allowed to sue on your behalf. For Michael Schiavo to sue Hannity's ass off, he'd have to be willing to do it, when the plain facts on the ground are that the man dearly wants to get on with his life. And as my junior high journalism teacher told me, "Puppies are trained on yesterday's newspapers." Give it a year and few will know or care. Besides which, to sue Hannity you'd need a mint of money, including funds to pay Michael Schiavo to take more time from his life for this nonsense, which would of course immediately call into question his motives for bringing suit.

2. With the "Dukakis question" or any other uncomfortable question, assuming you can sneak a ringer into the White House Press Pool to ask it in the aftermath of Jeff Gannon, what's to keep Bush from waffling, ignoring the question, or blathering some non-answer about his Christian faith that starts with a ritual "Gosh..." and a blank look?

3. Obviously the second shooter was the aliens in the cloaked UFO, cleverly disguised as a grassy knoll. I thought everyone knew that.
