DUBIOUS DISTINCTIONS
Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld receive an honor:
"We admire these leaders as fellow citizens who have the courage of their convictions and are willing to do the very difficult and unpopular work of living up to principles of freedom and democracy rather than accepting the expedient or popular," said Wheeler, now the head of entomology at the Natural History Museum in London.
Of course, this would probably sound a lot better if they weren't being honored by having slime-mold beetles named after them!

Congratulations on this great honor, gentlemen.
