reality-based educator

Here's another example of the incompetence and ignorance of those in Bushworld:

The office of Health and Human Services Secretary Mike Leavitt called Sen. Craig Thomas's (R-WY) office Thursday afternoon to request a meeting with the late senator, the Washington Post reports.

Thomas passed away on Monday after a seven month battle with leukemia.

"Needless to say, grief-stricken Thomas staffers were stunned."

Oops.

Guess nobody in the HHS offices was watching the news last week.

I wonder if they know about the guy with TB who slipped in over the Canadian border?
