Whoopie! According to the
Washington Post, Dubya is calling in Daddy's political fix-it man in a new movie that mysteriously came out too late for the Hallowe'en season:
The Return of James Baker III
It seems Baker will be put in charge of making international money markets feel warm and fuzzy about Iraq's $120 billion debt.
Of course, Bush isn't losing any sleep over a U.S. deficit (one-year's shortfall - not the country's accumulated debt) that is easily four times the size of the entire Iraqi debt. This should make for some useful Democratic talking points.
