One day ends, and a new one begins.

Are you better off than you were eight years ago?

Tomorrow George W. Bush will become an ex-President. The set at the prop ranch at Crawford will be struck, if it hasn't already, and the now former Commander-in-Chief will retire to the loving embrace of those who are better off than they were eight years ago.

I sincerely hope someone keeps an eye on his post-Presidential adventures. What he does in the years to come may help clarify what has gone on in the past eight.

Tomorrow a new day will dawn at noon.

Absolutely, though perhaps I could be even "more better" off with better leadership. I keep hearing how bad off this country is, but just about everybody I know is doing well.
