If Irony Were a Sledge Hammer . . .


George W. Bush's daddy was interviewed by some USA Today reporter this week and one of the questions asked of him was his opinion of Obama.

Mr. Thousand Points of Light responded thusly:

On President Obama:
“Right now Obama’s getting a pretty good ride, don’t you think, in the media?” Asked if the coverage of Obama is fair, he said, “Nice try.”

Gee #41, I realize at your age the memory starts to falter, your staring your own mortality in the maw, Babs ain't the lay she used to be, or, maybe you're just pissed and bitter that you couldn't have carpet-bombed a few more third-world countries with brown people in them in the loyal service of your oil industry and military industrial complex masters. Then again, maybe you're just a heartless, soulless, cranky old prick who's just an all-around rotten human being, but truly pops, did it ever occur to you that there are just simply some very basic and legitimate reasons the media has yet to sink it's greasy, bloodthirsty claws into Obama's hide?

Here -- I'll help you --- first -- he's only been in office 100 days. More importantly though, unlike your colossally incompetent, dim-witted son:

> Obama has yet to allow a major terrorist attack on the country on his watch

> Obama has yet to sit by on his ass doing nothing while watching a major American city drown

> Obama has yet to fill critical cabinet and government posts with rich campaign donors and family (oil industry) cronies

> Obama has yet to lie America into a catastrophic, idiotic war of choice

> Obama has yet to trash America's image around the world by endorsing state sponsored torture of prisoners

> Obama has yet to alienate long-standing allies and increase the global level of hatred of America by opposing all efforts to limit the impact of global climate change

> Obama has yet to allow some of his personal hacks to out and destroy the career of a valued CIA asset solely for political revenge

> Obama has yet to politicize with hacks and friends what should be the least political entity within the government, the Justice Department

> Obama has yet to employ warrantless wiretapping and spying on a mass scale of all American's private phone, mail and e-mail communications

> Obama has yet to preside over the wholesale deregulation of the finance industry, allowing greedy Wall Street hucksters to sell America down the river and financially ruin the nation

> Obama has yet to repress sound science as it relates to public welfare and social policies in favor of superstitious "faith based" religious pandering that has done incalculable damage to America's spiritual and social fabric

> Obama has yet to fuck up the entire world

So Poppy Bush -- do America and humanity a favor -- take your oil industry earnings and your entire dysfunctional, criminal family and your treasonous groupies, cronies, leeches, etc. -- and go buy yourselves a little island somewhere where you can all rat-fuck each other for eternity -- and leave the rest of us the fuck alone to get on with the important business of restoring America's prestige and honor in the world!
