Mark: "Today president-apparent George Bush toured Iowa...while his opponents, presumably, kept busy elsewhere." We're always happy to welcome back our old friend Alice P. Schwartzman, even though she no longer reps the homeless underclass, right, Alice? Alice: That's right, ducks! I got a roof over my head now - rafters, ridgepole, collar ties, shingling - the whole crazy ten yards! It's prosperity with a purpose - keeping me dry! Mark: Speaking of which, I take it you've been tracking George II's restoration bid... Alice: Yes, and it's very exciting. I'm a big fan of the Bush name - I think it's my all-time favorite dynasty... I love the idea of going back to the good old days when a Bush was in the White House, and...and... wait a minute - didn't we throw him out? Mark: Well, no one can remember. And who's got time to look it up?
