Bush Honors Civil Rights Icon Rosa Parks

Yesterday, President Bush spoke his obligatory praise of Rosa Parks:

Bush Honors Civil Rights Icon Rosa Parks

President Bush praised Rosa Parks on Tuesday as "one of the most inspiring women of the 20th century."

The civil rights icon, who died Monday night at age 92, set an example that helped touch off a movement that "transformed America for the better," Bush said. "She will always have a special place in American history, and our nation thinks of Rosa Parks and her loved ones today."

No words of praise from Vice President Cheney too? Surely the man who voted against the Equal Rights Amendment and other civil rights legislation would have great things to say about Ms. Parks. Nothing?

Guess he's hiding out in his bunker again.
