A co-worker of mine told me a quote about how Bush compared picking a new medicare plan to buying a car.  Huh?  Is that supposed to mean that it is easy or hard?  What an ambiguous analogy.  I decided to try to see if I could find an audio clip on PodZinger where Bush actually says it, just to be sure what he’s making the analogy to.  I didn’t actually find him saying it, but I did find a clip from PBS where Bush is talking, and then the pundits talk about the car analogy.

So, I tried to think of a few ambiguous analogies.  Here we go:

• It’s as easy as setting the clock on your VCR
• It’s as easy as putting together that toy you bought your kids
• It’s as easy as filing an insurance claim 
• It’s as easy as finding the WMD’s
• Mission Accomplished!
