"Make The Pie Higher"

[k j]

Just a little ditty to start the day. ;-)

This poem has been around the internet for a few years. It hit my inbox again yesterday, so thought I’d share. It’s made up entirely of actual quotations from George W. Bush.

(The poem is attributed to Washington Post writer Richard Thompson, but I have no idea if he compiled it or not.)

MAKE THE PIE HIGHER

I think we all agree, the past is over.
This is still a dangerous world.
It’s a world of madmen and uncertainty
And potential mental losses.

Is our children learning?
Will the highways of the internet
Become more few?

How many hands have I shaked?
They misunderestimate me.
I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity.

I know that the human being
And the fish can coexist.
Families is where our nation finds hope,
Where our wings take dream.

Put food on your family!
Knock down the tollbooth!
Vulcanize society!
Make the pie higher!
I am the Decider!

1. And somehow all those little slips, were suppose to endear us to Bush

There were also:
- his comment that he doesn't think about OBL
- his comment that we can't win the war on terror - rescinded by his minders and not repeated
-His comment that he was not for a volutary army - rescinded by his minders and not repeated


Kerry simply dropped the word "us" - in a stupid joke.
