George W. Bush is wearing a
ZZ Top hat this morning. I wonder if he's a fan of the band's 1976 song
Arrested for Driving While Blind ... "When you're driving down the highway at night/And you're feelin' that wild turkey's bite/Don't give Johnny Walker a ride/Cause Jack Black is right by your side/You might get taken to the jailhouse and find/You've been arrested for driving while blind."
