An experiment: Wherein I attempt to be a conservative for one week.
(Last in a seven part series.)
Day seven: The Bush Legacy. Freedom schtünk.
It has been a long and crazy week. There is so much Bush and so little time to embrace all of him. How can this love affair end so soon? How can I convey the thrill of his resonant authority whenever he walks into the room? How can I describe the contortions on his face that shows the strain he undergoes as he squeezes out each well-chosen word? Alas, no one can.
(more below the fold)
GW was alone in boldly recognizing unmet needs. Realizing that people were not spending long enough waiting in line at the DMV, he signed into law "The Real ID Act." This is not a national ID. It is merely a state ID that is nationally registered. For convenience, all foreheads and hands will be marked with the sign of our leader.
Government should be made smaller. This miniaturized government will be able to monitor all of its citizens activities.
Some homosexuals are good (Jeff Gannon) while others are our enemies (Ellen DeGeneres and France). Don't ask, don't tell. This was Bush's policy during roll call in the National Guard (where he risked his life testing the army's experimental "invisibility spray") so it should be good enough for our country.
John Roberts will be good for the United States. Through the doctrine of strict constructionism the constitution will be respected for what it is: the 67th book in the Bible.
Prisons are country clubs, country clubs where minority members were allowed.
Rights are selfish. Rights are unpatriotic. There are just too many of them. The Patriot Act will put an end to that. To resist the Patriot Act or anything with the word "patriot" you are comforting the enemy -- you might as well be fluffing bin Laden's pillows.
Perhaps Adenoid Hynkel summed it all up best when he proclaimed: "Demokrazie - Schtünk! Libertee - Schtünk! Free Sprechen - Schtünk!" Because free speech leads to free thinking and free thinking causes STDs, wild dancing in the streets and engenders doubts in our leaders.
