SSSHHH! (Memo Smuggled out of the WH!!!)
SSSHHHH! (Memo smuggled out of the WH!)
By Nancy Greggs

Apparently a kitchen staffer at the White House found this on the fridge door, secured by a “Support the Troops” magnetic ribbon:

Georgie:

Now that Mommy and I have agreed to come and live with you at the WH (in yet another effort to save your sorry ass, as we have traditionally done) you are technically living under our roof.

Therefore, you WILL obey the following House Rules until further notice:

Other than necessary public appearances, you are hereby grounded. That means NO telephone and NO internetz! And don’t think you can sneak behind our backs on that one – we know how to wire-tap, too.

When you ARE allowed out, you will stand up straight instead of slouching, and will stop that incessant ‘heh-heh’ cackling. The whole world now knows you’re an IDIOT – you don’t have to go proving the point every time you open your mouth.

Mommy has hired a tutor, who you WILL spend four hours with each and every day. Until you learn how to properly pronounce words like ‘nuclear’, you will not be permitted to threaten anyone, anywhere, at any time. Got it, bub?

The very next time you use a word like “strategery”, or refer to “people putting food on their families” in public, you will have your mouth washed out with SOAP! Mommy spent a fortune on your E-D-U-C-A-T-I-O-N (NOT “edumacation”!), and she is tired of being embarrassed. Doesn’t the poor woman have enough worries on her beautiful mind, without THIS?

There will be NO MORE sleepovers! And yes, that includes that Jeff Gucki character – the one who keeps changing his name. There’s something strange about that guy; he gives both me and Mommy the willies, and it looks like he’s been over here WAY too often anyway. This ban also includes that bin Laden fella – and you can tell him to get all of that videotaping junk out of the rec room, PRONTO! Jesus, you can’t even shoot a game of pool down there without tripping over those crappy “cave” sets you two wasted so much time building.

Mommy and I will now be THE DECIDERS when it comes to your playmates. It is obvious that despite our warnings, you’ve been hanging around with the ‘wrong’ crowd. We tried to get you to be best friends with Tony, that nice Limey kid, but you screwed it up – just like you screw everything up.

Uncle James is here to save your bacon – yet again. You will refrain from calling him by any of your cutesy nicknames. He is Mr. Baker or “sir”. I thought you learned your lesson when the Fundies found out they were referred to as ‘wackos’ and ‘wingnuts’ – don’t you EVER learn anything?

You will NOT take Air Force One out “cruising” on Friday nights with the excuse that you and your friends are just “hanging out”. Mommy and I weren’t born yesterday. We KNOW what Zig-Zags are used for, and we KNOW that stuff on the little mirrors is NOT an anthrax sample. We have also marked the levels on all of the J&B bottles, so don’t even go there!

Out of deference to Laura, “Barney” can stay – but that other pudgy dog, the one you call “Rover”, will HAVE TO GO! Mommy wants to have him ‘put down’, but I am willing to give him away – assuming it’s even possible to find someone willing to give a home to such a vicious, ugly mutt.

No, you cannot have a new country, so you can cross that OFF your Christmas list right now. You had two new countries to play with, and you broke both of them – and that’s not even including the one we’re living in.

Stop teasing your brother with that, “Nani, nani, I have a job and you don’t,” crap. If it wasn’t for Jebbie, YOU wouldn’t have a job either.

The Oval Office WILL be cleaned up immediately! That means all Lego will be picked up off the floor, Star Wars action figures will be put away, and coloring books will be stacked neatly in the appropriate cubby. It’s bad enough everyone here at the White House KNOWS you don’t actually do any ‘work’ – do you have to make it so Goddamned obvious?

Speaking of the Oval Office, that G.I. Joe wallpaper will be replaced NOW! Just how long do you think Mommy can keep photographers out of there? If you’re so enamored of the military, why didn’t you SHOW UP for duty instead of making Mommy write all of those, “Please excuse Georgie from the Viet Nam War today, because …” notes?

You will NOT contradict direct orders from me, Mommy, or anyone else now in charge by saying, “I don’t HAVE TO listen, because I’m the President and you’re not.” Guess what? YOU’RE NOT EITHER. At this point, that title is just a technicality.

All of the above rules will be OBEYED. You have been an unbelievable disappointment from the day you were born. We realize now that thinking that would ever change was just a baseless illusion – kind of like the baseless illusion that the Republicans would win the mid-term elections.

Junior, I’ve said it before, and I will say it again: YOU ARE AN IDIOT!

Love and Kisses,
Mommy & Poppy

2. Love it!
Was visiting my own mommy and daddy this past weekend (in their mid-70s) and my mother really had an issue with the way junior refused to pronounce Nuclear correctly. Oh, they both had plenty of other issues with him--I wasn't raised by idiots--but it was so funny that she focused on that one.

K&R

17. It should be adopted as an amendment:
"No president shall have the authority to deploy weapons he CANNOT PROPERLY PRONOUNCE."

6. I was totally down with it until the part about Legos.
You know Lego is too complicated for *. He has Lincoln Logs and he builds little Republican Log Cabins with Jeff Gannon everytime they have one of their sleepovers. :)

7. I know what you're saying, but ...
... I was thinking of the Special Edition* "Iraq" set. It comes with completely constructed schools, hospitals, and mosques -- and it even lights up!

It also comes with a special Lego sledgehammer, and a battery de-charger which shuts down all of the power within seconds.

To this day, the GOP are convinced that with just ONE MORE YELLOW CORNER BRICK, the whole thing can be put back together again.

Did you ever know that you're my hero. When I grow up, I wanna be just like you.

13. Now, how is Bush the Preppy going to enforce this edict against Bush the Frat Boy?
Well, now that the Military Commissions Act has passed and torture is ok, as long as the president says that torture isn't torture, the Bush the Preppy has devised a new torture for his wayward son (OK, his oldest wayward son; all four them are wayward).

It's a high tech version of the iron maiden. It's a kinder, gentler iron maiden. Instead of iron spikes, there are laser beams. It's called the Thousand Points of Light.

20. Sad thing is....it's probably more true than not.
Poppy is, yet again, bailing Dimson out of a mess he, himself, created. Too bad we had this guy selected for us.

good stuff and a belated :toast:

21. Yes, a belated ...
... :toast:, my friend! With all of the celebrating here last Tuesday night, we never got to meet up in the crowd!


And it IS a sad thing ... to think that the person holding the highest office in the country is nothing more than a fuck-up whose parents have to bail him out, time and time again.

As I wrote in a piece earlier this year: "REMEMBER WHEN the president was someone you looked up to, and not just the butt of every late-night talk show joke?"

22. You need an invite to...
...the Bill Maher show.

Better yet, you need your own show. Too funny!

I know why you aren't in favor of immediate impeachment. You're having too much fun lampooning the Rez!

26. Thanks, puebloknot!
Just for the record, I am pro-impeachment - just want it to be done with patience and meticulous investigation, so there are no doubts or loopholes for the little guy to crawl through.

Besides, after living with Mommy's nagging and Poppy's "God-you're-an-idiot" sideways glances for a few months, the Bad Seed will probably WANT impeachment - just so he can get AWAY from both of them!

27. Madame...
...you give me hope!

Only one doubt remains about your thesis: Baby Bush may want to hang around for Mommy's beautiful mind 'cause he ain't got one of his own!

28. Ah, so true!
But Mommy and Poppy have OODLES of money (especially after what Poppy made from this war) -- maybe instead of buying Junior another country to wreck this Christmas, they can buy him a BRAIN!

(But then that begs the question as to WHY they haven't done so after all of these years -- maybe they just looked at him, and figured he wasn't worth the financial investment.)

29. I hate to let this get out...
...but the name "Walker" is prominent in my mother's family. I shudder to think.....

And I hear that Mommy and Poppy are cousins. Do you have any skinny on that?

Suppose M & P bought Junior that super-dooper codpiece with their millions (gold-plated?) for his "Mission Accomplished" celebration? Two of my uncles were in the Thunderbirds and swooped down on aircraft carriers, just like Georgie, but I never noticed them strutting and groping like he did that day! They're on the other side of the family, though. Not the Walker side. They're from the James side (Jessie James, first cousin five times removed or something like that).

Maybe they're just not as genetically endowed as Dubya! Or maybe Mommy and Poppy spent the brain money on something else! Think?

24. You are SUCH a goofball, Nance...
Edited on Tue Nov-14-06 09:58 PM by Mythsaje
Great humor to this one.

And I've been SO serious today in contrast.

You should consider checking out my journal to see what I've been up to. I think you'll like it.

On edit: My recommendation just put you ahead of my "Voodoo Economics" thread by one.

:)
