Meanwhile Dubya's parents bought his degree from Yale, he got lots of
"C"s on hs report cards, he couldn't run a business in the private
sector even though people kept giving them to him, he lied to Congress
and the American people about the existence of Weapons of Mass
Destruction and got a lot of people needlesly killed, he's so out of
touch he didn't know about the biggest hurricane in history even though
it was all over the media and was so uncarring as to make jokes and
laugh about the high times he'd had in Gnawlins as he flew over the
devastation in Air Force One.....
Dubya seems to think the presidency is a carnival ride he's on. Fame
and fortune were handed him unearned. Photo ops where he dons a hard
hat and wears protective glasses (but leaves his suitcoat and tie on)
while it takes him over a dozen whacks to drive an 8d nail don't serve
to convince me he works for the American people or that he has ever had
a callouse on his lily white hands.....
So I smile and say: "Welcome to the Republican Party." too Panzon,
because I see the irony in this situation and have biting sarcasm in my
heart.
