but it's come true anyway.
Come the millennium, month 12
In the home of the greatest power,
The village idiot will come forth,
To be acclaimed the leader.
Saw this on a site that debunks internet hoaxes and thought it was funny. As they point out on the site, Nostradamus' predictions were never this clear. Besides, too many people predicted this one

On a humorous note, if you type in dumb
mother ----er into Google search last week, the top result would have been a site about President Bush. Wired News dismisses talk of a Google mole, and reveals that the words had actually appeared in the link text of another site.
I just tried it and it's still there.
Did Nostradamus predict how much damage
he could do in just one week? ...206 to go!

One reason why, even if you wish to believe it's true, it's not -- The 12th month of the millenium is December 2001, not December 2000.

Well, one of our fore-fathers had the right answer, regarding the "Village Idiot"
============================================
George W. Bush was thrilled at being able to spend his first night in the White House, but something very strange happened. On the first night he was awakened by George Washington's ghost. "President Washington, what is the best thing I could do to help the country?" Bush asked. "Set an honest and honorable example, just as I did," advised Washington.
With all the excitement of the White House, Bush couldn't sleep well and the next night the ghost of Thomas Jefferson moved through the dark bedroom. "Tom, what is the best thing I could do to help the country?" Bush asked. "Make the government accountable to ordinary people, not the rich," advised Jefferson.
Bush still couldn't sleep well and the next night he saw another ghostly figure moving in the shadows. It was Abraham Lincoln's ghost. "Abe, what is the best thing I could do to help the country?" Bush asked. Lincoln replied: "Take in a play."

I found this on a humor site the other day...
The White House
January 12, 2001
Mr. John Hinkley
St. Elizabeth Hospital
Washington D.C.
Dear John,
As we prepare to leave Washington, Tipper and I wanted to drop you a short note to tell you how pleased we are with the great strides youare making in your recovery. In our country's new spirit of understanding and reconciliation, we want you to know there is a bilateral consensus of compassion and forgiveness abroad throughout the land.
Tipper and I want you to know that no grudge is borne against you for attempting to assassinate former President Reagan. We, above all, are aware of how the mental stress and pain could have driven you to such an act of desperation.
We are confident that you will soon make a complete recovery and return to your family to join the world again as a healthy and productive young man.
Best wishes,
Al Gore
P.S. George W. Bush is ...king Jodie Foster.
