Turns out, Bush and his "people" were scared of Harry Potter and thought it would rain down witches on us!! Maybe I'm "misunderestimating" (that's Bush's word, not mine) his administration, but in a new book by Matt Latimer, a former speechwriter for Bush, he claims that "people in the White House...object(ed) to giving the author J.K. Rowling a presidential medal because the Harry Potter books encouraged witchcraft."[source] Now, granted, the story is light on facts, but I totally believe that the most idiotic administration ever to fumble into power in our great country would react in this way. I love this story...well....any story that confirms the Abbott & Costello-type atmosphere that must have been running amok in the White House during the Bush years. I picture like an episode of the Teletubbies, except they are all in suites and bathe in oil and money. Ha. Harry Potter rules!!!!!!!
