An Open letter to Shrub
Edited on Fri Dec-03-04 09:34 AM by alevensalor
I put together a couple of feelings about our fascist overlord, thought you guys might want to take a look, let me know what you think.

Dear Mr. President,

I am writing to tell you something very simple, and I will attempt to use smallish words for your benefit, as I understand you are currently beginning your second term, and have very little time to learn to read. I’ve been busy before, so I can understand that.

What I have to say is this: Your ultimatum, directed at your own people, “You’re with us or against us", is preposterous and prima facie ridiculous. Oh, sorry, “prima facie” is a term that means “at first glance, without further investigation".

1. Check your spellling
It's rather rediculous.

Also, prima facie is probably not the term you'd want to use. Why admit that you are only taking a first glance at his ultimatum, and not investigating further?

2. Trying to play at a level

He'll understand, superficial and small. I just saw the spelling error, corrected it. Feeling silly.

3. A rhetorical action or preaching to the choir?
Like he reads, or would read it, if he did read?

Or like, he would consider it if he did read and read it?

Boy in the Bubble II does what he wants, or what his puppet masters tell him he wants to do. In fact, if he did read that letter, (or if somebody read it to him) he is said to screech and fling poo when enraged and off-camera.

4. ROFLMAO
True enough, it was more for us than him, really. Preaching to the choir.
