The ultimate sacrifice

I feel much better about George Bush after hearing what a courageous step he has taken to sacrifice himself for the good of our country. From Frank Rich:

This month, in case you missed it, [Bush] told an interviewer that he had made the ultimate sacrifice of giving up golf for the war’s duration because “I don’t want some mom whose son may have recently died to see the commander in chief playing golf.”

[I have just a twinge of a suspicion that the real reason behind this is that he may be embarrassed by his golf game and not want the public watching while he flubs a shot.]
