Irony, Thy Name Is Dubya

I suppose that when you're a runaway President who is never called to account for his excesses by the other branches of government you're bound to wind up in some ironic situations.

First, how about Dubya presiding over "Law Day" festivities yesterday, one day after the Boston Globe chronicled how Dubya has designated 750 laws passed by Congress as ones he doesn't have to follow or enforce. Jack Balkin has more on that here.

Second, remember how a couple of days ago Dubya indignantly said that the U.S. National Anthem should only be sung in English? Yeah, well, he didn't think that back in 2001, when Jon Secada sang the anthem in both English and Spanish for Dubya's inauguration. Sounds like a flip-flop to me - draw up impeachment papers, STAT!
