Remember that SNL skit about if Bush became president?
They showed the future for each of the candidates if elected. It showed the world on fire and bombs dropping through the window of the oval office with Bush diving under his desk about to poop his pants and telling his daddy this was hard. How amazingly prophetic that was. If Gore had been president we might have all been bored but 600+ service people (and probably 3,000 9/11 victims) would still be alive.

1. Not to mention uncounted tens of thousands of Iraqis.
Collateral damage can be pretty messy.

3. Or the one when Daddy bush and shrub were hunting.. And
Daddy bush, realizing that his idiot son might actually win, propped his rifle up and aimed it as the idiot son as he contemplated shooting him. He put the rifle down after he reason that "Barr" wouldn't like it. I always think about how prophetic that one was. If you look at those election 200 SNL skits, they are all prophetic.

4. I would be vacationing in Europe if the real President Gore was sworn in.
I don't want to go to France right now, they hate Americans. I'd have purchased a house if Gore was President so I wouldn't fear losing my job, and then my house, and all my savings. I would have a child because I knew there'd be a healthy planet for it to grow up in, not some cesspool of muck. I'd have a tax break for purchasing a car that was fuel efficient and part hybrid. I could think of so many things my life would have if the real President Gore was actually calling the shots. The doom and gloom President is depressing...nothing but wars, oil, drilling, rape, high crime rates again, unemployment, hate, and then all this with shoving jesus down my throat. Bush is a miserable failure of a human being. His morally bankrupted America as well as financially bankrupted America. the S.O.S President (same ol shit)

7. Really? they've banned it.
I remember it VIVIDLY. They ran it twice, once on the election special they ran the Sunday before the election. I have always wanted to see it again. They shouldn't ban it.

8. Life imitating art . . .
The Bush (p)residency is too much like the movie "Being There" coming true . . .
