Oops: Mag Runs Obit of 'Colorless' HW Bush

Reports of former President George HW Bush's demise were greatly exaggerated earlier today when German magazine der Spiegel erroneously published a partial obituary, reports the AP. Adding insult to premature death, Spiegel memorialized Bush as a "colorless politician," whose presidency only looked good when later compared to that of his son, George W Bush. The obit appeared briefly on the website, before quickly being taken down. The elder Bush, for the record, has left the intensive care unit and is reported to be improving.
