Bush: The Missing Years

[mikeysnot]

SO this is the spin they are trying to portray the * as a special forces special secret agent.... this is sad because the macho men that read this rag will buy it, I got three pages in and did not see one point that they could substantiate.

"Afterward the mystery performer sat with Donahue and several of his fellow rifle-platoon soldiers, and the men quickly attracted a gaggle of young Vietnamese women. Over beers and shots of Rebel Yell, the stranger told them he was in the country on "government business," but was vague about details. He boasted that he "worked alone." He said he'd traveled throughout the warring country, and when Donahue asked if he'd crossed the border into Cambodia and Laos, the man grinned and winked. Then he showed off a pair of crocodile-skin cowboy boots he'd purchased from a peddler in Saigon. "I've been looking for boots like this for a month," the man said, rubbing his hand over the slick skin. "Mission accomplished!"

Bush appears to have been an unconventional choice for SUMS. The agency did not typically recruit from the Air National Guard

1. It's satire.

2. Of course not ... but read on and you'll see it's clearly meant as satire.

3. It has to be, BUT

people will believe it. I don't think I could read all of it but just the first two pages are enough to convince a pro * supporter.

5. honestly, I don't think they will believe it

they'll SAY they do deep down they know Bush is a cowardly piece of shit but HEY he is GOP and they put their party above their country.
Honestly, only real idiots could buy such utterly ridiculous spin or satire.

9. That is what I am afraid of

"Honestly, only real idiots could buy such utterly ridiculous spin or satire."

4. This has gotta be satire!

6. It is. You won't question that if you make it to the part where he

inflates the giant penis! (Sadly, I'm not making that up.)

10. I couldn't get past the second page...

In my original post, I had several paragraphs snipped and some comments that got dropped when I originally posted this???? So, maybe I should have finished the article....

BTW, there are devices that are surgically implanted into guys shlongs, to help with erection, size etc... so that wasn't the clue for me..

7. This is comedy...

It's a subtle satire.
Clues- "no official record of SUMS"
"Bush is multi-lingual"

Fucking great big clue- roadie with the Rolling Stones & the inflatable penis...
