BUSH: "Seeking comfort from his nannies"
Bill Gallagher: 'Murtha speaks truth to Bush's lies'

Bill Gallagher, Niagara Falls Reporter

DETROIT -- Privately, President George W. Bush is having a political panic attack as he retreats to his cocoon, seeking comfort from his nannies. Babs, his mommy, wife Laura, Condi Rice and Karen Hughes serve as his ladies in waiting, assuring our courageous leader that the boo-boos he gets on his head will get better and those bad boys criticizing his war are just meanies who don't like him.

Vice President Dick Cheney, whose bum advice has cost him his male-nanny status, still is called upon for political valet duties. He made a pitiful attempt to quiet Iraq war critics and rewrite history. Cheney, the Lord of the Lies, still sticks to the bogus script he, more than anyone else, crafted: that Saddam Hussein was a dangerous threat to our security and war was the only way to save the republic.

"We will stay in the fight until we have achieved the victory that our brave troops have fought for," Bush bellowed last Saturday to cheering American military personnel at Osan Air Base, near Seoul, South Korea. Aside from the company of his nanny corps and at the coffee shop in Crawford, Texas, military bases are the only places Bush can feel appreciated these days.

These last couple of weeks have been grueling for Bush. He's been on the road to Latin American and Asia, and our leader hates to travel. He has to eat all that "fur'n" food, listen to "fur'n" languages, stay up past his 8 p.m. bedtime and pretend he's interested.

7. Are you serious with that? I see this piece portraying gwb as a whining,
immature, shallow cut-out of a leader. (Pretty much accurate, I'd say).

8. That's why I put the big smilie. Maybe I should have used the sarcasm one
Bill Gallagher once wrote a very scathing article about bush's so-called service in the TANG. He is no fan of bush, never has been.

:hi:

4. You gotta love the Koreans
I spent three years serving in Korea in the 1960s. The had demonstrations weekly in Seoul. They are a very politically active/responsive people and not afraid to show their anger at governmental injustices. My guess is that Osan AFB was the only place he could show his face safely. Besides it gave him another chance to play dress up and strut in front of all his loyal troops.
