    Don't count on Brain Williams ever realizing what little credibility he has.

    Just went to Brian Williams' web blog to see what he's got to say. He's getting misty about what a wonderful job Bush has done on the AIDS front:

    "When weighing the legacy of President Bush, we must count that African mother who is alive because she is receiving treatment, and her baby born without HIV/AIDS who may one day be a friend of the United States and a leader for the world."

    I have to admit, if Bush has done anything good at all, this is it, but I have very strong doubts that a different president who would not have attacked Iraq, who would not have tortured, who would not have spied on Americans, who would not have ignored global warming, who would have not ignored all the warning signs that our economy was about to implode, I doubt such a president as that would have, unlike Bush, ignored the AIDS crisis. Brian is living in a dream world.
