   To boost my long-suffering self-esteem, I offer a few more Bushie moments   
   for the stupid to defend:   
      
   1.  His economic policy has produced nothing but record high   
   oil/gasoline/natural gas prices which, now has prompted a meeting of the   
   industrialized nations worried about a world wide depression.   
      
   The stock market- the republican's favorite indicator of economic success,   
   because it's rise means the rich are getting richer-has gone nowhere.  So   
   the rich definitely need another tax cut, oh yeah, and who cares about the   
   deficit?  Only the naysayers, the negative people.  And we know it's all   
   america's duty to be positive.   
      
   Oooh, what if you had no SS and a private account started in 1998.... oh,   
   never mind, it's just too much to figure out.  And since it's too much for   
   us, Bush must be right.   
      
   2.  A government report just issued stated that airport security is no   
   better now than it was before the attack of 9/11/01.  Ah, say the bushies,   
   but we had a report that proves it's all the CIA's fault, and so it's still   
   the CIA's fault.  Just look at Condee's high heels and dresses, and that   
   proves it can't be our fault.  The so called "news" media agrees.  The   
   stupid rest assured and listen to their congressman praising the "culture of   
   life" and condemning the judges, even straight conservative republican   
   judges, on a TV church program.   
      
   3. The Bush mis-administration has announced that a government report   
   published openly since 1985 will not be coming out this year.  That   
   publication describes the number of, and trends in, terrorist attacks across   
   the world.   
      
   Why shouldn't this report come out?  The Weed-in-Chief and his poisonous   
   alter-ego (however,  the executives of Halliburton and those of Exxon would   
   disagree with that adjective "poisonous", so, you see, this is a fair and   
   balanced report)  has already stated that we are winning the war on   
   terrorism.  And what more do the stupid need to know?  Nothing.   
      
   The report stated that global terrorist attacks in 2003 consisted of about   
   155 incidents.  In 2004 there global terrorists attacks amounted to about   
   670 incidents, a four-fold increase.   
      
   eeeuuuuwwww, said bushie.   
      
   bushie asked jesus what to do.  jesus said, do that which reassures the   
   least among you.   
      
   bushie decided to quash the report.   
      
   Because the stupid do not need to know things like this.  Or should I have   
   used that most overused and corrupted phrase "The American People"?   
      
   What _do_ the stupid need to know?  The stupid need to know that their   
   Commander-in-Chief is busy fighting stem cell research.  The stupid need to   
   know that their C-in-C is busy promoting Creationism and the teaching   
   thereof, thus helping in the grand cause of replicating the stupid.   
      
   There is no greater goal.   
   --   
   Anticlimax:   
   And that goal in no way impedes the goal of the owners of the ownership   
   society, which is so completely simple as to be perfect:  to own more.   
      
   If you are wondering about how simplicity = perfection, study theology.
