I'm not a big fan of folks who support John Kerry first and foremost "because Dubya is a bully." These are men and women who, when seen on TV, have clearly spent most of their lives getting pushed around--largely because, like Woody Allen or Kirstie Alley, they give off a vibe so obnoxious that it incites hatred in complete strangers. In fact, if you could reach through the screen and across the ether, you probably wouldn't mind smacking 'em around yourself.
No, if you're going to hate G.W., hate him because he's a total moron. Case in point: the following poem (forwarded to me by my friend Jason), pieced together from recent Bushisms:
MAKE THE PIE HIGHER
I think we all agree, the past is over.
This is still a dangerous world.
It's a world of madmen and uncertainty and potential mental losses.
Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning?
Will the highways of the Internet become more few?
How many hands have I shaked?
They misunderestimate me.
I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity.
I know that the human being and the fish can coexist.
Families is where our nation finds hope,
Where our wings take dream.
Put food on your family!
Knock down the tollbooth!
Vulcanize society!
Make the pie higher!
Make the pie higher!
