Bush Signal: Hail Texas or Hail... Someone Else?

Fidler on the Roof - whose Blogmaster occasionally posts comments here - had this first, but now the story is starting to spring a life of its own. Norwegians and heavy metal rockers alike saw a signal given by George W. Bush at the inauguration as a Satanic gesture.



However, calm-minded folks who remember that Bush was also governor of Texas note that this is simply the "Hook 'em horns" symbol of the University of Texas. Still, in the current hyperpartisan climate, ultra-leftists will look for any sign or signal that verifies their conviction that W is the Devil... or the Anti-Christ. And to be honest, ultra-rightists are still looking for signs that the Clintons are allied with the devil, as well. I wonder if the next President will be able to drink a glass of water without it appearing to be an ultra-something political statement.
