From the back seat of the car on the way home from church Sunday:
Owen: Bush is a bad guy.
Me: uh, well, I don’t like President Bush. Some people like him though.
Owen: He was president and he wanted to start a war and he did and lots of people died. Now he’s not president.
Me: Well, actually we’re in the middle of choosing our next president but we won’t know who that will be until this November.
Owen (in a tone of disbelief): You mean he’s STILL president?
Me: yup
Owen (in a tone of disgust): DANG it
Great temperature check to realize that while technically he’s still the prez, the lame duck period started, oh, when Obama won Iowa?
