I can honestly say that George W. Bush seems like a statesman when compared to Sarah Palin. Just when I think this woman has reached the lowest point on the “dumb scale,” she puts her head down and burrows far deeper. Not too many people can look like an idiot multiple times, within days. But she can.
I have never seen a public figure with such thin skin. It seems it doesn’t matter how petty or ridiculous a joke or jab may be thrown at her, still she gets her panties in a ball. Whether it’s David Letterman, the “elite” media, the Obama Administration, or now Family Guy, does she really think she can win these silly battles? What’s more, who in their right mind would want to fight them?
At one point it may have worked to play the victim to the big, bad, elite media. Now she just sounds like a real bitch. She has cried wolf a dozen too many times, and now she just serves as fodder for the news media. But I guess this is to be expected. After all, Sarah couldn’t handle the rough and tough Alaska media, so how in the hell are we to think she is capable of functioning in the national spotlight?

There was a certain e-mail (SPAM) going around speaking ill of Obama and his presidency. They did a comparison of the things Obama did and a “what if” if GW did the same. I couldn’t help but responding to each claim. Personally, I think Obama has done nothing in a year, but it’s a better nothing than GW did in eight.
If George W. Bush had been the first President to need a teleprompter installed to be able to get through a press conference, would you have laughed and said this is more proof of how he inept he is on his own and is really controlled by smarter men behind the scenes?

Yahoo! is my web browser’s start page, so I get a glimpse of the headlines when I start up Safari. See anything striking in the top news section? Gun violence much? To say this country, and indeed the world, doesn’t have a gun problem is like telling a right-wing, gun-toting redneck that his beloved NASCAR racer doesn’t use round wheels. The quizzical look on his face is the same found on my face when I hear the NRA saying that there isn’t a gun problem, people kill people, not guns, and all that jazz.
I used to buy that line, “guns don’t kill people, people kill people.” And maybe in a sane and moral society, that line works. But we are dealing with anything but sane and moral. We are living in the downward spiral of something that was once great.
I don’t have time to write anything substantive on this issue, I just wanted to make a point. Hopefully, I’ll be able to devote more time to this topic and expose these gun-rights morons for the illogical and misinformed people they are.
Do I need any other examples of George W. Bush’s failed war on terror? No, not after today. I am resigned to the fact that my civil liberties will be eroded to the point where I don’t realize I’m free anymore. And by the way, this is his war. The American people do not share his feelings on this one.
Today I was surprised to see my USPS Priority package come back to me, returned from the Post Office. It seems that they are on some kind of “heightened alert” and all packages weighing in at over 16 ounces must be presented to a retail clerk. What they should have said is that for being a good citizen, not breaking the law, you have to stand in line for 30 minutes rather than placing a stamp on your parcel and quietly, easily dropping it in the box.

Pwnt! Well, another of the “good reasons” we went to war with Iraq has proved a myth– along with all the others, like WMD and Saddam’s nuclear ambitions. I wonder if Bush and Cheney still hold these “truths” self-evident? Morons!
In a report released today (wow another Friday release, go figure) by the Senate, Saddam Hussein regarded al-Qaida as a threat rather than a possible ally, contradicting assertions President Bush and Dick Cheney had used to build support for the war in Iraq.

As promised, George W. Bush vetoed a proposed stem cell bill. The bill would have eased limits on federal funding for embryonic stem cell research. It was his first veto in his 5 1/2 year Presidency, although not the first stupid decision he has made.
It has been reported that Bush is all in favor of idiotic stem cell research– something he has benefited immensely from!
The veto came a day after the Senate defied Bush and approved the legislation, 63-37, four votes short of the two-thirds margin needed to override.

President Bush gave a speech last night about his plans for a comprehensive immigration policy. In true Bush fashion, he did in all in under 20 minutes, and nobody really knows much more than they knew before.
The only real new idea was a plan for an immigrant ID. This ID would allow immigrants to be tracked, and would allow prospective employers to verify the person whom they are hiring is really who he/she says they are. This would be a really great idea, except for the fact that this does nothing for immigration reform. It may help locating people already here, but without real immigration border control, ID cards will just remind us how much our immigration policies are failed.

Enough! George W. Bush is a moron. Doesn’t he get sick of giving the same terrorism speech over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over?
Having been snowed in today, and my satellite reception knocked off for a few hours, I was sickened, but not surprised to hear Bush giving a speech about terrorism when the signal finally came back on. What the hell is his problem? Why is this nut a one-trick pony? Does he just use the same speech, changing phrases here and there to suit the day’s events?
