Mark Morford: George W. Bush Means Nothing
You cannot reach me, Dubya.

Go ahead, ya smirkin' Texas lug, stumble around all scrunched and blank eyed and pseudo-manly, shove this country into a bloody unwinnable war and lie about all the reasons why, gouge the economy and ruin the schools and embarrass the nation every single day as you mangle grammar and meaning and truth. It doesn't really matter.

Go ahead, toss those useless $400 rebate checks to the depressed and jobless populace as some sort of bogus humanitarian gesture as you quietly force an increase in their property taxes to pay for your record-breaking deficit brought on by the tax cut no one wants. Ha. You are so cute.

There is so much more going on than you know. There is so much deeper understanding and wider knowledge and higher winking and you can't touch any of it. Do you know this? You need to know this.

You and your brethren are like this sticky toxic mist. You will burn off in the sun of awareness and orgasm and breath. This is what makes it so fun to watch, so magical and visceral, such a divine circus, a rich tragicomic pageant. Do you sense it?

1. That wasn't bad at all!
Made me think about 'sixties anti-Nixon poetry, music and art. How far we've come...or not. *sigh*

2. "...a strange and banal rash on the ass of time."
The single greatest line ever written about the GOP in a mainstream journalistic venue.

Thanks for the link...

4. Excellent column , as always by Mark Morford...
Morford and Krugman are always on the money.

Morford is in always in Bush's face and reflects my thoughts, always.
