For those of you who desperately miss Seinfeld, and are not satisfied by the reruns, DVD releases or even racist rantings of Michael Richards, DON'T DESPAIR!

NBC has agreed to pick up the option on my new sitcom, BUSHFELD. Here's an excerpt from the pilot, called THE PITCH FOR WAR:

SCENE: THE OVAL OFFICE

CHENEY: I think I can sum up the Iraq War for you with one word: NOTHING.

BUSH: Nothing?

CHENEY: (Smiling) Nothing.

BUSH: What does that mean?

CHENEY: The war is about nothing.

COLIN POWELL: (To Cheney) Well, it's not about nothing.

CHENEY: (To Colin) No, it's about nothing.

POWELL: Well, maybe in philosophy. But, even nothing is something.

CONDOLEEZZA: What's the war's premise?

POWELL: Well, I would go to the U.N., and make a presentation about mobile biological labs and we would pretend there are threats of mushroom clouds, yellow cake and apocalypse.

CHENEY: Yeah, but nothing happens to trigger the war. You see, it's just like life. You know, you eat, you go shopping, you read. You eat, you read, you invade Iraq.

Typcially, for Bernstein, he gets right to the point. What is the single biggest crime of the Bush administration?
