FYI, this ISN'T an angry rant! It's more of an eye-rolling, let's get real rant. I was inspired by the "Bush is Drinking Again" speculation... My reaction?
D'uh!
Who cares?
It's not like he's running the show anyway, right?
I mean, we've ALL KNOWN from day one, he's the puppet President! The perfect patsy if things go bad in the second term! (And... they are...)
Here are a few facts about Bush (OK, maybe not "facts", but certainly "informed speculation"):
- Bush is a puppet President.
- He is NOT part of the Christian Right. A true blue christian would NEVER call someone an "Asshole", as Bush did to a reporter in the 2000 campaign. Hey, I would know! My mother is a fundamentalist christian and she would NEVER use that word!
- He doesn't give a shit, personally, about abortion. Has he ever come out and said anything concrete on the subject?
- Is he drinking? Has he ever stopped? It matters only if he is actually fulfilling his role as President. Is he? For the answer, see point #1.
- So, if Bush isn't really making the decisions, who is? D'uh... PNAC cronies. (Ties directly to point #1)
- Bush is not a robot. He is required to think for himself every now and then (while his handlers cringe nearby). i.e "Bring it on", "Dead or Alive", "We're taking him (Saddam) out", "I've never made a mistake".
- Based on #6, I guarantee you he knew the simple facts about Joe Wilson and said, "Damn that Wilson, git 'im!". Note that I said "simple facts", any puppet President HAS to be a dumbass in order to be a patsy, if need be...
- If the PNAC neo-con agenda doesn't work out, will they have to answer for their crimes? No. See point #1.
- Bush has no integrity. Think National Guard duty shirking and you'll agree...
- Bush can't answer questions he doesn't know in advance. Think "planned rallies", answering 9/11 questions only if Cheney is there with him, etc.
- The neo-cons will turn on him in a heartbeat. The time is right. Because that's what you do to a patsy, you set him up to take the fall if the need arises.
- Can you say "Un-Indicted Co-Conspirator"? (Oh, and by the way, he's drinking again...)
My, oh my, what an interesting few months we have ahead of us...
