It's interesting that George Bush thinks that "klieg lights" are a key accessory in a meaningless spectacle -- in this case, Congressional attempts to find out what his political hacks were up to in firing prosecutors -- because the last time that "Bush" and "klieg lights" came in the same context was when his staging team set up such lights for his post-Katrina speech from New Orleans, bathed him and the background cathedral in light, and then shut down the power right afterwards as he left the floods behind him.
