Joy
and Bliss Under the Reign of “King George”

"Sometimes when I consider what tremendous
consequences come from little things…I am tempted to think
there are no little things." Bruce Barton
The last tax cut enacted by Bush’s Republican-led Congress
was supposed to create 1,000,000 (one million) jobs. The truth
has been quite the opposite. Jobs have been evaporating from
all sectors of the economy. More than 500,000 were lost in
the last quarter alone.
Iraq was “capable” of a “mushroom cloud” over American cities.
The truth has been shown by more than 3,000 US inspectors
who have turned up nothing – dirt, dooda, zippo, nada.
The only way to have “healthy forests” is to cut down all
the trees. Hmm . . . Think about that one for yourselves.
You, dear readers, are bright and thinking most of the time.
I can count on you to not miss the forest for the trees.
Iraq is such a “success” and the “mission accomplished”
is so wonderful and going so swimmingly we just want to share
the wonderful feelings of “liberating” the Iraqis with our
dearest friends, the French and the Germans. As long as they
want nothing to show for their efforts but dead soldiers,
that is.
We will “leave no child behind” as long as that child needs
no food, shelter, education or a nurturing environment to
grow up into.
We will be “compassionate” as we make certain that there
is no industry that cannot allow the “market” to develop for
a greedy corporate beast that pays no taxes (only collecting
“subsidies”) and we will forego all regulations (except “self
regulation”), because we know that there are no CEOs or CFOs
or Boards of Directors that will allow negative things (like
faulty products or services) to occur.
We have been shown that George’s and Dick’s best friends,
Kenny Boy Lay and Halliburton, have only the best for the
taxpayer and consumer in mind.
We know that Colin Powell had voluminous pages of lies to
wave in front of the United Nations Security Council in February.
But we had an evil dictator to overthrow – never mind that
the highest officers of our country lied about why we went
into Iraq.
Our national debt is expanding to the tune of One Billion
Six-Hundred Million Dollars ($1,600,000,000) a day – everything
is going to be rosy in the next quarter – recovery (even if
it’s jobless) is occurring right before your very eyes!
If you don’t see it, it’s because that darn ‘liberal’ media
is just neglecting to tell you the good things! You know those
people that sit around the tree holding hands and singing
KumBaya, they only tell you the negative stuff. Stuff like
dead soldiers and wounded servicemen and women - the ones
wearing kevlar vests, so if they’re wounded, it usually means
they’ve lost arms or legs or had a massive head injury. The
‘libral’ media is just fixated on death and destruction, don’tcha
know?
I heard a really funny one today. The Bush administration
has told Iran that they have “one last chance” to get in line
and if they don’t do what George wants, then he is going to
tell that irrelevant United Nations on them! Don’t you think
that will be a hoot? I’m just certain those other countries
are going to sanction another war (they didn’t sanction the
last one George started)?
With a mere fifteen months to go to the November 2004 election,
we the voting public can only look forward to more joy and
bliss under the reign of “King George.”
I would tell you to rest easy, we can vote him out of office,
but I fear that the electronic voting machine community has
decided to rally round George and circle their wagons. With
millions of taxpayer dollars being used to purchase machinery
that has been proven unreliable, with no paper trail to verify
the votes, with software that is easily corrupted, and tallies
that can be manipulated, we may be in much more trouble than
any of us can imagine.
Diebold, E S & S, Sequoia and Science Applications International
Corporation have one thing in common – these companies are
owned and operated by heavy hitters in the Republican party.
