Held Barack!

Oh dear, and just when we thought we were making progress!
From NewsBiscuit:
America today woke up to the news that George W. Bush will remain US president for a further four years after officials from the Electoral College ruled that he had failed to secure the grades needed to graduate from the White House. A sub-clause of the US Constitution requires a serving president to be held back and forced to repeat a term if he does not make the necessary progress.
While I’m sure we’re all aware of the importance of learning lessons, we’re equally aware of the sheer humiliation in being held back like this, and who among us can claim that it’s productive? Surely it’s best to let the poor boy go on to a Gerald Ford-like existence of corporate sponsorship and cushy board appointments, no?
