Bushmas (9/11) : A new national patriotic holiday is in the works.
Edited on Mon Sep-15-03 08:07 PM by TruthIsAll
Republicans are pushing legislation to make 9/11 a new national holiday. It will be a permanent celebration of the transformation of Bush from lifetime failure to religous deity. A saviour who became our "very popular war time president" when he was called by God to rid the threat to mankind of evil-doers and liberals.

This religous holiday will appeal to fundamentalist Christans who await the rapture, messianic neocon/media-centric, former liberal Jews whose parents fled Hitler and worshipped FDR while they struggled to survive during the Great Depression, Muslims who lost their way and no longer hate us for our freedoms, blacks who applaud the patriotism of Colin Powell and Condoleeza Rice, Hispanics who support a Bush Coup to overthrow Venezuelan President Chavez, anti-Castro Cubans who would conspire to assassinate Castro, and Catholics who believe in the sanctity of life for those invisible sperm ejected into toilet bowls during masturbation.

The First Bushmas will be celebrated the week ending 9/11/04, during the Republican convention. Happiness and Rovian good fear will be overflowing and a new, joyous terra war will signal the oncoming Rapture and start of the Holy War to make the world safe for roaches.

We wish you a Merry Bushmas.

2. They'll do anything to get rid of Labor Day
They are doing everything right now to get rid of the US labor force.

3. The very popular wartime president
Decided to take monthlong vacations twice during the war, as well as once just before the war started.

I have never heard of a wartime president that would be so irresponsible as to even dream of taking a monthlong vacation during "wartime".
I might add that when we were at war with Iraq, he took a vacation every weekend.


Surely I am not the only one who, when watching him give a speech, thinks about how satisfying it would be to punch him in the face.

7. So, if it's made a national holiday
How long before the stores can advertised their "September 11 Sales"? (Remember, it's your patriotic duty to SHOP)

14. I thought that that started on 9/12!
My wife & I decided that we would buy NO product that had an ad campaign of the "Show you're a good American by buying my product" ad line. :puke:

That sort of mentality, I believe, would never have happened under a President Gore, who would have genuinely made every effort to unite us, probably in the face of constant rethuglican opposition! :crazy:

10. You know I am hoping the Rapture comes soon
and takes all those people up into heaven and then maybe there will be peace on earth for the rest of us at last.

11. No, because
I am certain that none of these people will be taken to heaven. Many of them will be shocked, angry and confused when the rapture happens and they are still here on earth. Who would have thought that a life of intolerance, greed, and hatred wouldn't get you into heaven?

15. Yeah, I don't think there is a might about it
I think the most fitting punishment for these people would be to send them to whatever hell they think you and I deserve to go to.
