Else he wouldn't have even placed.

7. Tearing away the veil of being civilized
His naked incompetence and aggression tore apart the veil of civilization that the current authoritarian GOP hides behind. All their BS fell apart and Bush's ineptitude may lead to long term democrat majorities.

I guess that is praise. Voter apathy is probably at all time lows due to Bush.

and she said all she can think of is the rebate checks.
(after relatively gentle probing she admitted she had not heard that this is now more money we owe China)

stayed up for it, and, sitting on the floor in a corner of the kitchen floor at about 1pm he piped up at the small TV propped on the kitchen table:
"and I thought this was going to be boring"

14. I appreciated it when George W. stopped in New York to congratulate Jason McElwain. . .
on his remarkable basketball game. From what I saw, Jason was thrilled to have the President recognize his accomplishment, and that is a big part of any President's job.

he was a uniter, not a divider. Of course, I don't think he thought it would be the rest of the world and over half of his own country united into hating him.

and he's not counting more than a million innocent Iraqis,

55. I appreciate Bewsh for destroying the Republican party.
That old buffoon free-trader, flat-tax bastard Steve Forbes was on his channel CNBC this morning, stating that McCain has "an excellent chance of gaining the White House". Uh, in what universe? One that still buys into the George W Bush school of hyper-Reaganism?

Oh, BTW, Forbes is McCain's "economic adviser". Astounding. What's your grand "advice", Steve? Tell workers that unbridled corporatism, free trade and job offshoring is great for the economy and will lead to better paying jobs here? Yeah, try finding 6 non-lobotomized people in this country who still believe that line of horseshit.

What Forbes doesn't get is that his party is a stenchy joke that stopped caring about the needs of the American people decades ago. Guys like him think that just because Bewsh is going to get off scot-free and Americans really did nothing to stop him, that means America must not be that pissed about him or his actions. The reality is, Americans are too busy scrambling to make ends meet to storm the White House with torches and pitchforks.

That doesn't mean your party doesn't suck the ass of the dead, Steve-O. It means that they'll make you pay in 2008 thanks to your man Bewsh showing us why voting against our best interests will, INDEED, bite ALL of us in the ass.

Hopefully, those fucktwats will learn their lesson that America really ain't into neo-fascist ideology and that 1984 is supposed to be a work of fiction, not a blueprint.
