Bush Fatigue
by Ed Naha | May 7 2007

You know we're in trouble when our President's father tells Larry King that the country is suffering from "Bush fatigue."

You know we're in trouble when Laura Bush tells the nation that nobody suffers more than she and her husband when it comes to Iraq.

You know we're in Lewis Carroll territory when the most memorable Dubya moments of the last two weeks consist of Bush dancing and drumming with a group of African musicians, appearing on "American Idol" and Bush celebrating Cinco de Mayo with a mariachi band.

You know we're down the rabbit hole when Bush re-defines himself as "the Commander guy" and it takes the White House forty-eight hours to correct the official transcripts to "a Commander guy." This is closely akin to changing the statement "I'm THE moron" to "I'm A moron."

I think "Bush fatigue" is only one of many ailments we're suffering from.

There's "Bushlexia." The symptoms afflict those who either listen to or read statements by Bush while attempting to find logic in them. Severe migraines, dry heaves and spit-takes are the result. The antidote? Diagramming sentences, brushing up on grammar and re-reading the speeches of F.D.R. and J.F.K. in order to remember what a real president sounds like.

"Bushedelia" attacks those who actually attempt to connect reality with anything that comes out of Bush's mouth. For instance, Bush insists that the Democratic-spawned idea of attaching a timely withdrawal table to further funding of the Iraqi screw-up would result in "chaos." This is opposed to the Sesame Street situation our invasion and occupation has caused. Last month, 104 American troops died in Iraq. In the first six days of May, there've been 25 deaths. In five years, 3376 American troops have died. The overall effect of Bushedelia is identical to what was referred to as a "bad trip" in the 1960s. So far, the only known antidote is swearing at King Kong volume whenever you see his kisser and vowing not to drink the Kool-Aid.
