He Trashed The Place And It Didn’t Belong To Him…
The Down Jones Industrial Index is now lower then it was the week Bush took office…
But you know what? Even allowing that he may not have actually won either election fair and square, enough people voted for him that it was close enough to steal. If the economy is in a mess now, it’s because enough Americans decided that this spoiled rich man’s kid who failed at everything he ever put his hands to in his entire life, cheerfully knowing that either daddy or daddy’s rich friends would bail him out, was good enough for them. They didn’t want to elect a president. They wanted to elect someone who would put his thumbs in the eyes of all the people they hated. All the democrats. All the liberals. All the heathens and the dirty fucking hippies. All the uppity darkies, women, and faggots. They put a moral runt into the White House, as a way of pissing on all of them, and all the other undesirables who mistakenly thought that the American Dream belonged to them too. If they couldn’t have America all to themselves, then they might as well trash it.
Don’t think for a minute that when the misery of a broken economy reaches their own doorsteps that they’ll have second thoughts. No status or wealth or plenty could ever ease the pain of knowing that the people they despise are peacefully and contentedly living their lives as though what the gutter thinks of them doesn’t matter.

I’m not sure what the tie-in is here. But somehow this entry reminded me of something my Mom griped about long ago. She had been donating to and voting for Bob Dole for years. And then she got pissed off over some policy or direction that Dole went. It wasn’t just that SHE didn’t like the direction he took (Sorry, I don’t recall what the issue actually WAS) it was also that he completely ignored the will of the people and what it was that the Kansas constituency wanted him to do.
So Mom ‘pulled her support’ she had recieved yet another beg from Dole in the mail, asking for donations so he could "Represent the people of Kansas". Well Mom wrote a terse note back, included the mass-mailing his team had sent, and told them not to bother because she was switching parties because of Dole’s disregard of the people and being so out of touch.
His campaign sent back a form letter thanking her for her donation, and asking for more.
So mom wrote yet ANOTHER terse letter, and this time she had looked up his actual mailing address, and addressed it to him personally. It told him off, it told him how out of touch he was, the letter scolded him for licking up corporate politics and ignoring what the good people of Kansas wanted. She also told him she didn’t appreciate that her donations were being spent on sending out more and more glossy expensive mailings when a one-page xerox would do, and be so much cheaper.
She recieved back a personal letter from Dole.
It thanked her for her continuing support, and her generosity, and how much it meant to him personally that good salt of the Earth Kansans had so much trust and fath in him and yadda yadda yadda and thanks for writing in such a show of support…and included an envelope and a form for sending yet MORE money to him.
My Mom laughed, then cursed, said loudly that Dole is a complete idiot, then threw the letter into the trash.
I immediately dug it out of the garbage, as my Mom had made a mention that "Well, at least he signed the damned thing". (I was just begining my interest in collecting political autographs) I wanted the autograph.
The letter got lost somewhere along the lines, but at one point I found out that many politicians and celebs actually use "Autopens" that sign things en mass, even with slight irregularities to make them look real. So I dug out some of my collection and started comparing them against examples in an autograph collecting book.
Yep. Dole’s signature was an auto-pen.
Like I said, I’m not sure what the tie-in is to your blog entry, but it seems to really speak to just how out of touch our bLeaders are to We The people. And it speaks to some of the issues in your ‘Lipstick on a pig’ entry.
So what if Dole HAD won out against Clinton way back in the 90’s?
In retrospect, that creep Dole actually looks like a viagra-fueled tower of virtue compared to BushCo.
But can an auto-pen machine be altered to apply lip-stick to a pig?
