At least he isn’t ruining Monday for us!

And one to the list of reasons why you’re glad you don’t live on the east coast.

Those poor folks, who’ve already waited a week for the season finale of “Prison Break” at 8 p.m. on Fox, are going to have to wait another 20 minutes while President Bush yammers about immigration reform.

Seriously, couldn’t it have waited until, say, Friday night, when there’s nothing good on TV and nobody’s watching anyway?

We’re safe, though, unless he goes on for more than three hours, in which case we all lose.

Bush’s speech will start at 5 p.m. our time and can probably be seen on every channel known to man, so use the time to mow your lawn.

I’ll take this opportunity to remind you of real news:

The season finale of “Prison Break” airs at 8 p.m. Monday, followed by the second-to-last episode of “24” on KCPQ, Channel 13.
