Bush: 'I won't step down, and leave the country to traitors'http://www.smh.com.au/ffximage/2008/06/15/mugabe_wideweb__470x319,0.jpgOoooops. Seems as though I had a Faux News moment there. Guess that ain't W after all. At least Bobby has the honesty to tell it like it is. W can only Wish - At least, that's what I hope...

1. This is how dictators operate. |
|
and this is why the Legislature will not impeach, or enforce a single subpoena.
We can have a peaceful revolution in November (hopefully), or become a banana republic in a matter of weeks.

2. A few years back, I had a very similar moment with a Bush "loyalist." Check this out |
|
I was talking with some people about the situation in Asia, and this Bush kool-aid drinker came over and caught most of it, but not the beginning:
I was mocking a pompous ass parading around as head of state with no real qualifications for the position other than his father had held the same office. He liked to pose with the military although he himself had had no real military experience. His version of economics had ruined the economic situation of the country. He was pretty much cut off from the real world by sycophantic yes-men, and thought of himself as as true leader instead of the clown (albeit dangerous clown) that he really was.
So, this angry (they're always angry, come to think of it) Republican "patriot" came up to me and lit into me for dissing "our President and Commander-in-Chief." I informed the guy that I had, in fact, been talking about North Korea's Kim Jong Il, but if he saw that many similarities, he probably had a point.
The mumbled response as he turned away was, unfortunately, in Bushese or something, as I never was able to make it out.
