3. Good article - this portion jumped out at me...
"And strut he did: Ol' George looked every bit like the turkey he is, trying to show " command of facts" by roaming around, thrusting his neck forward at every opportunity.

It was a repulsive show, which will undoubtedly fool pundits as it has all along, if preliminary Talking Head gas is any indication. Still, anyone who wasn't embarrassed to have the world see that this jackass is our President just wasn't paying attention. A hollow shell of an intellect, spouting the same platitudes that could have been draped over any "conservative" candidacy of the last half century, Bush hit at the safest of targets:

5. Not a Turkey. A Banty Rooster.
That's pronounced 'BainTee Rooster'. And I doubt many will know what I'm talking about.

8. What a Great Piece!
TomNickell, I think I know what you mean by that "rooster" reference.

What a great piece of writing that was, Penguin. I think the guy i particularly right about one thing: Hasn't anyone been paying attention? I, for one, have been downright embarrassed by this court-appointed president.

We need to take care of this, folks. Let's keep working toward a huge turnout on Nov. 2 and get Kerry and Edwards into the White House.

No more embarrassments!

Splendid!

And I love the way those Mrs. Robinson lyrics fit in.

Most of all you have to hide it from the kids.

Only a few weeks left of this ugliness. Well, a couple months more I guess. * will make a really ugly lame duck.
