Heh-heh, ah Magoo, paying a visit to the bakery was a great idea -

Confound it! This article's only about some fellow named Thomas White, who was chosen by that Cheney fellow as the new Army secretary. Someone felt the new blood was a little bit green, y'see, so they nicknamed the fellow after Magoo - ah, ah, there's the catch in it all! Heh-heh...yessss....

Now, if I can only remember where I put that bread...

Thomas White today, and Thomas White yesterday (Thanks to the Wayback Machine). One could almost say that his resume had been sanitized for your consumption.

Absolutely. Great stuff, michaelonfs, thats the kind of stuff that sends Maureen Dowd into a frenzy.

Has anyone here heard Thomas White's voice? I heard him during his congressional testimony concerning his years at Enron. He sounded disturbingly like Bill Clinton - voice (and Arkansas accent), equivocation, word parsing and all.
