 Politalks And Fuzzy Math 

 

George Dumbya', Our Idiot President

I wouldn't tout Reagon(Bush)omics overly much. Arthur Laffer, who basically invented Reagonomics, disavowed them as a failure a number of years ago. And even George Bush Sr. called them 'voodoo economics'. The deficit EXPLODED under RR, and we're going to be paying the bills his admininstration ran up for another 12 years even if the economy remains golden. You can scream and point at the Democratic congress of the time all you like, but the fact is, vastly increased defense spending + big tax cuts DID NOT = a balanced budget, as Reagan very wrongly kept telling us. Bush's budget gives tax cuts to the rich. 43% of his proposed cut goes to the richest 1%. Only 12% goes to people making about $39,000 a year. Lets remember the Clinton/Gore record, you won't see this kind of success for at least 4 years:

His Fradualency, George dWi Bush

Is this guy for real? I mean, he's as dumb as a stick. What on earth are the republicans thinking? I guess after one intellectually challenged republican president, why not another.

 

        Here are some political cartoons that sum up what I think of George D (riving). W (ithout). I (ntelligence) Bush

If after seeing this, don't you question his intelligence? Now, in his proposed "bujjit" Dumbya reveals that he would earmark one billion dollars for R&D of wind and solar energy if-IF-congress approves his wonderful plan to invade Alaska and drill for fossil fuels. HOOBOY-Dumbya means to take both forks in the road simultaneously. He will follow the one to the dead end of nonrenewable temporary profits at the expense of a pristine wilderness but follow the one that leads to the future and true energy independence only as far as a pittance will take us. And the gesture of true forward thinking is dependent upon acceptance of the proven failed past thinking. Yeah, you take that fork in the road Dumbya. I think Dumbya is about to fork himself. Instead of sticking a Black & Decker drill into Alaska, why not use a word that has not been uttered since 1979, conservation. The most popular vehicles are the ones that get the worst miles per gallon. Why not enforce CAFE laws on trucks and SUV's. Why not raise the average mpg to 26 from 20 mpg? Would it really kill you to not stab the gas pedal when you merge on to the freeway, or not do a burnout at the stoplight? Would it make you croak to be driving a 4 cyl or a 6 instead of a V 8 or V10. My 1985 Dodge Aries 2.2 (W/EFI) gets 29 MPG in the city. It can do 60 up the grade on the 7 Mountains in Lewistown, Pa. It has pep, and has great economy. Instead of the Suburban or Excursion, why not a Caravan or Voyager? Both can hold 7 people and cargo, but the latter gets better mileage. I don't mean to be preachy, but there are better ways of beating OPEC than drilling and ruining Alaska. 

Don't let the warm fuzzies you feel when Dumbya is told to do something decent by a puppeteer he has christened by his statement "I trusht his jujjmint"--delivered in that little boy lilt--make you feel any less violated by this Master Hypocrite and Pawn.

Don't forget that this former cocaine using and alcohol abusing addled mass of recombinant brain cells- that deer in the headlights look, the pinhole pupils---with the aid of a conscienceless Supremely Biased and "result oriented" Court with the likes of Clarence Thomas making decisions that affect a nation, is our abductor.

The little boy lilt is due to the fact that he has had to be a very good boy ever since he was caught being a very bad boy. He has had to make a career of kowtowing to his superiors/bankrollers/confessors--daddy's moldy oldy friends.

I would love to embrace the platitudes bantied about bipartisanship, working together, etc. However, the Bush presidency is founded upon duplicity, manipulation, falsifications, and tamperings with and by the very institutions originated and maintained to preserve our Democracy. He knows that he and his 'legal team' obstructed the truth. He knows that many Floridians were illegally denied their right to vote.

He is like a thief who invites you to sup upon your own stolen plates or ride in your own stolen car. He knows the foundation of his 'presidency' is corrupt and exudes a stink that will never go away. We may be stunk with him and his Father's retreaded cronies now, but it is the hope of this page that none of this is repeated in 2004.

My memories of Republican assaults on head start lunch programs, the environment, corporate liabilities, individual rights and common sense-and the wedding of same to a terminal Diabolic Perversion of Christianity leave me feeling bitter, and fearful of what the future holds. I hear the same old mantra of tax breaks for the rich, obliteration of the environment for a three day supply of oil, the leveling of mountains for a handful of gold.


A candidate who ran on the platform of 'states rights' and who platituded us to death with such sayings as "I trust the will of the people" made a liar out of himself when he fought the will of the people that would have been revealed by hand counts in Florida and fought states rights as exercised by the Florida Supreme Court. Bush fought the will of the people and states rights and was 'saved' by a blatantly partisan and pretzeled logic pronouncement by the Supreme (sic) Court of this (platitude coming> Great Nation of Ours.


"Castles made of sand crumble and fall into the sea-eventually."

 


The Bush presidency will not weather even a minus tide of truth.

 

Bush's Song (Sung To The Tune of "The Beverley Hillbillies")

     Come and listen to my story 'bout a boy name Bush.
     His IQ was zero and his head was up his tush.
     He drank like a fish while he drove all about.
     But that didn't matter 'cuz his daddy bailed him out.
     DUI, that is. Criminal record. Cover-up.

     Well, the first thing you know little Georgie goes to Yale
     He can't spell his name but they never let him fail.
     He spends all his time hangin' out with student folk.
     And that's when he learns how to snort a line of coke.
     Blow, that is. White gold. Nose candy.

     The next thing you know there's a war in Vietnam.
     Kin folks say, "George, stay at home with Mom."
     Let the common people get maimed and scarred.
     We'll buy you a spot in the Texas Air Guard.
     Cushy, that is. Country clubs. Nose candy.

     Twenty years later George gets a little bored.
     He trades in the booze, says that Jesus is his Lord.
     He said, "Now the White House is the place I wanna be."
     So he called his daddy's friends and they called the GOP.
     Gun owners, that is. Falwell. Jesse Helms.

     Come November 7, the election ran late.
     Kin folks said "Jeb, give the boy your state!"
     "Don't let those colored folks get into the polls."
     So they put up barricades so they couldn't punch their holes.
     Chads, that is. Duval County. Miami-Dade.

     Before the votes were counted five Supremes stepped in.
     Told all the voters "Hey, we want George to win."
     "Stop counting votes!" was their solemn invocation.
     And that's how George finally got his coronation.
     Rigged, that is. Illegitimate. No moral authority.
     Y'all come vote now. Ya hear?
