President Bush said in his first post-election interview with CNN:

“I regret saying some things I shouldn’t have said,” Bush told CNN’s Heidi Collins when asked to reflect on his regrets over his two terms as president. “Like ‘dead or alive’ and ‘bring ‘em on.’ My wife reminded me that, hey, as president of the United States, be careful what you say.”

The interview, aboard the USS Intrepid in New York, came after the president addressed a Veterans Day ceremony.

That’s the big question Globe faces this week.

While we’ve seen that Globe consistently features stories for the senior citizen set, I’m not so sure this one  will fly off newsstands this week.

President Bush’s approval ratings are at an all-time low and I’m not sure many would want to be seen with a cover of George Bush in their shopping cart.  (I admit I’m bias on this one and can’t stand Bush.  There, I said it.)

Thoughts?

The New York Post offers a fitting full-page tribute to Tim Russert.

The tributes for Tim Russert continue, including Bob Schieffer, Walter Cronkite, Nancy Reagan, Ethel Kennedy, George Stephanopoulos, Bill and Hillary Clinton, John McCain, Barack Obama, President Bush, Andrea Mitchell, Brian Williams and Tom Brokaw.

In case you missed it, here’s the photo the New York Times selected for George Bush’s final State of the Union!  

If you’re an alarmist, this probably is not the issue for you!   Radar continues to have a blast making their covers — and this one is no exception!   President Bush riding a missile waving his cowboy hat is a priceless image!   Plus, the cover lines are diverse topic wise and definitely grabbed my attention, especially “The Agonies of Oprah” and “Faking it on Facebook.”  (Editor’s note:  My pictures on Facebook are completely real except the one with my sixpack abs!)
