Happy Belated Fifth of July
It's not enough to co-opt the flag and country music; yesterday we discovered that the President has also made the Fourth of July his very own:
Q Do you have anything on [the President's] birthday [July 5], anything at all?
MR. McCLELLAN: He celebrated that last night.
Q He did?
MR. McCLELLAN: Yes, he had a celebration - yes, they had some friends over to watch the fireworks and they had a birthday cake.
Hey, it worked with 9/11.— WONKETTE
