U.S. President Pot, meet Zimbabwe’s Kettle…

I believe it was Abraham Lincoln who said “It’s better to be quiet and have people think you a fool, than open your mouth and prove it”.

Or at least something very close to that.

Well, here’s a quote from “Voice Of America”, published on June 28th, 2008.

“U.S. President George Bush is vowing to take new action against Zimbabwe’s government for what he called a “sham election” Friday that ignored the will of the people.”

Was there ever a guy more qualified to recognize a “sham election”? 

As you can see, there’s no need for an official White House proctologist.

This is the official residence of the perfect asshole.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A great impersonation of Robert DeNiro, eh?

Now appearing as “The Raging Bull-Shitter”.

Continuing, “In a statement Saturday, Mr. Bush ordered the secretaries of State and Treasury to develop sanctions against what he called Zimbabwe’s illegitimate government and the people who support it.”

I’m sure the people of Iran are breathing a sigh of relief these days as they sense the bulls-eye moving off them, they must be feeling like the Afghanistani’s did when Bush shifted us over to Iraq, while looking to get to that guy, you know, Saddam Hussein.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hey, wasn’t there some other guy that he was looking for?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh yeah, that’s him!

Well, mission nearly accomplished, nice work Bushie!!!

Does She Have A Flat Head Too? *

To really appreciate the title line of this blog, you’d have to know what a “spinner” is.

But I digress, I now know why John McBush always has that stupid grin on his face.

Cindy’s old? Hell, she could pass for 60

His current wife, Cindy, has a ton of money and owns one of the nation’s largest beer wholesalers.

However, he was banging Cindy while still married to his first wife Carol.

Carol was the wife that waited for him to get out of the prison in Viet Nam.

And then to show his gratitude, he divorced her and married Cindy.

…and, this is the grip that John likes best.

Cindy is years younger than McCain, but then again so is most everyone else.

Someone should ask Carol about the phrase “no good deed goes unpunished”.

And, ask John for a definition of “Family Values”.

Go B.O., Go Go Go

Hooray Barack! You’ve managed to make John McBush McCain reveal what a whiney inner bitch he is by pulling the dirtiest trick you can play on a republican, using their secret weapon against them. That secret weapon is, of course, MONEY. This explanation is provided for those readers who are either from another country, or are a graduate of the American public school system. Money manipulation has always been the republican’s stock in trade, Herr Karl Rove must be twisting in the wind at this point, simply frothing at those flapping jowls. Or perhaps just picking his nose with his thumb.

Should the press persists in asking why you’re not taking the public money, the answer is the same as the punch line to the old joke about why a dog licks his private parts; Because he can……..

But, the true high point here is that you will cause the republicans to have to cough up a lot of cash to try to keep Bush-III in the running, thereby draining away funds from others of that ilk in lesser offices.

This is a clear ground rule double, a great job Obamie-wan!!!

Obamie-Wan has such a nice, natural ring to it, so my permission is hereby granted to the Obama campaign folks to use it as they see fit, just remember where you got it from after the election when you’re looking for people to place on the warcrimes trial jury for Bush, Cheney, Condi, Rummy, Rove, a host of other lesser weasels, and many of the “Supremes”.

Hmmm, who do you think had more guys close behind him,

Bush or Liberace?

No thanks Karl, I really don’t want to sniff your thumb.

That’s all I’m asking……..

Great work there Bushie….

F.E.M.A. = Forget Any Monetary Assistance.

Bush broke all his previous records for getting to a trouble spot, arriving in Iowa even before the water was finally dried up. The real crap happens tomorrow in the deeper South with the rivers cresting, but George will be long gone.

With hurricane Katrina, it took nearly a month before he flew over.

“Hey, those people look just like ants!”…   “Mr. President, they are ants, we didn’t take off yet…”

Well, o.k., he waited about 40 years before he went to Viet Nam, but you know a guy has to be careful, if he went earlier he might have run into Jane Fonda. You know, I think she could have kicked his ass.

Jim Morrison and his backup band……

A.K.A. “The Doors”.

For some reason a previous posting I did has received a ton of hits the last few days. It’s the one that dealt with the strange choice of some folks to say that Jim Morrison wasn’t the Doors, but only one of four guys in the band.

I didn’t (and still don’t) buy into that theory, and I said this in the post.

Anyway, he’s still (as far as I know) dead, and so is the group. There have been no new hits from the Doors, not one has surfaced since Jimmy achieved room temperature and started blowing dust farts. 

Did I hit a nerve, or is it just the anniversary of the birth / death of James Douglas Morrison? I suppose I could look it up, but it’s just too tired out and I’m getting late.  ZZzzzzzzzzzzz…

The lizard king is dead, long live the king.

The lizard ces moi, adieu mon frere……

Bush Library Burns To The Ground…

Both books have been totally ruined!!!!

One wasn’t even fully colored in yet!!!!

But seriously now, can you find any reason to use the words “Bush” and “Library” in the same sentence? Well, here’s one, there will be an official George W. Bush presidential library.

Oops, I did it again.

I used “George W. Bush”, “library”, and the word “presidential” in the same sentence.

But you know, the world really does needs a safe place to keep a copy of “My Pet Goat”.

And also secure storage for the memoir Reuters’ reports Bush is thinking about writing.

Geeez, that’s a big 3 fer; “Bush” and “thinking”  and “writing”, all on the same line.

Hmmmm, how about this:

Bush is said to be thinking about writing an honestly researched, well thought out, grammatically correct and truthful story about his ongoing efforts to achieve world peace, while at the same time keeping the U.S. economy on steady ground, without somehow pissing off other nations around the globe.

Can anyone top that?

I’m waiting……….

Psssst… It’s a secret, right?

A while ago I had posted that as much as I really like using my Gmail.com account, it makes me a bit nervous that my mail is being read, even if only by some sort of program on some computer somewhere, and the content is then used to drive money making (but not for me) advertisements to my email reader. 

Last week I opened an email from a friend, and he was telling me of how many problems he’s having with his Corvette, and somehow the side space featured an ad for Chevrolet.

I have to guess that at least for today, the algorithm doesn’t take into account whether or not your word usage is positive or negative, it just scans for names or other searchable by database items that it can link to advertiser dollars. But even knowing how fast computers work, the fact that the pages open with the ads in place so quickly is a bit scary, are these words selected while the email is still being held in the pipeline before you can even check for your email?

All the above has been percolating in my brain for a while, and what has surfaced is this:

Perhaps when I do a Google (what do you think the “G” in gmail stands for?) news or image search, my subject’s search words run through a similar protocol filter and are sifted for content and then added to my Google master file (laugh if you care to, I believe that it exists), since all of the google / gmail information is linked by the cookies that are placed on my computer?

And that information goes where?

What if you’re a teacher, and you click on a news article in “Google News” about a teacher that was arrested for having kiddy porn on his (or, be fair now, her) computer? And your G-mail account has a few older undeleted messages to you from the PTA and the local school board, ones that might identify you as perhaps being in the world of education?

Related quote to think about:

“… if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.”

Friday, June 20th at 10AM…..

……. Will that date finally mark the beginning of the end for the Bush crime family?

Yesterday, June 9th, 2008, Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers officially invited the former white house press secretary, Mr. Scott McClellan, to testify under oath on Friday, June 20th at 10AM.

McClellan’s testimony will will add power to the work of democratic Rep. Dennis Kucinich, who once again defied his party leadership yesterday and called for the impeachment of U.S. President George W. Bush for his role in launching the Iraq war. The Ohio representative described his proposed 35 articles of impeachment against Bush on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives.

Kucinich accused Bush of executing a “calculated and wide-ranging strategy” to lie to the American citizens and our Congress, which lead many of them to believe that Iraq was a great threat to America. 

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D*, California) has several times said she opposes any attempt to impeach the Republican president, who will leave office next January, saying such action was “off the table”.

Exactly what dirt the republicans have on Pelosi is not publicly known at this time, but it must be some really good “under the table” stuff to make her work to protect that bunch of lying weasels. 

Kucinich, an outspoken Iraq war critic who has consistently voted against funding the war, and led anti-war efforts in Congress, offered a resolution to impeach Vice president Dick Cheney in April 2007. That also failed to work, leaving Cheney free to continue his hunting trips.

Many Americans have accused the Bush administration of providing misleading information before the 2003 Iraq invasion, as well as violating the rights of U.S. citizens with its ongoing warrantless surveillance program.

The White House of course denies the charges, much in the same way they refused to acknowledge the six meetings with lobbyist Jack “Meihoff” Abramoff.  Bush, for some reason can’t remember those meetings.

Who could have predicted that?

How John McCain Can McDo It…….

It’s not that I’m in any way looking forward to Mr. John “Bush-lite” McCain getting in office, after all he was the bottom third out of three possibles that were in the running that I could have voted for. But it’s so obvious of a scheme  that I think I’ll post it here and rely on the dating of this posting to prove it was my idea.

The following is the complete idea that John McCain should present as his own in his first debate with Barak Obama, if he can pull it off, he’ll walk away with the election.

John, you know there’s only one first place winner and anyone else is a loser, i.e. 2nd place is the 1st loser.

Anyway, here it is:

“My name is John McCain, and on my first day in office as your president I will use the power of my new presidency to do exactly what George W. Bush did, at least as far as his war policy. Much like George was able to re-direct the focus (both news and our weapons) away from Afghanistan mere months after 9-11, and move it for no real reason over to Iraq, I will move the cross hairs of our arsenal away from Iran, and set them on the elite of Saudi Arabia, where we can watch another regime change take place on t.v., from the comfort of our homes.

After moving anyone that’s part of the Saudi royal family off to live on a small desert island and fend for themselves, with none of their slaves to take care of them, we can watch the events on that island on a new reality show called “Pretentious Island” as the inbred weasels proceed to kill each other over the last can of Camel lube.

Upon installing a new and Western friendly group to fill the vaccuum left by Saud and his thousand or so related princes, we will “recommend” that the oil industry be nationalized, and owned by the poor of that country, with the profits from the oil to be used to provide education and health care to their people.  

I don’t think that plan would work in the U.S., but for those folks who will greet us with flowers in their streets, more power to them.  

Next, we will have summary executions live (so to speak) on t.v. of any and all people found to have had a hand in manipulating any part of the stock exchange through action or inaction in any part of it, but especially the petroleum industry. And those lawyers that defend them as well. And their lobbyists, just on general principles.”

That’s all it would take to have John McCain in the white house and heading for Mt. Rushmore in just a few months. Crap, as long as he was kept in a good supply of depends I’d even consider pinching my nose closed and voting for him.

Well, maybe.

Oh yeah, did I mention $1.65 cent a gallon gas to you? Check back in time to see what the price per gallon was before “W” was giving those reacharounds to his Saudi friends.

Please notice who was careful to use his “left” hand?
