Every now and again I read something so mind numbingly stupid that I begin to wonder whether I may have dropped acid an hour or two prior to reading it and just forgot about it. But that would be unlike me, so I begin to wonder if the writer has perhaps taken some sort of secret Republican drug that turns them into gibbering loons, making them see the things ass backwards and all wrong. On that note, have a look at this steaming pile of word shit written by Rich Lowry the Washington Post Editorial Board.
CAN THIS PRESIDENCY be saved? President Bush’s approval rating has plummeted to a dismal 38 percent, according to the latest Post-ABC News poll. Democrats will rejoice at their improving prospects of recovering a majority in Congress. But a damaged president governing for nearly three more years in a dangerous world is no cause for rejoicing. With that in mind, we offer Mr. Bush, at no charge, some advice on a fresh start.
And then it gets really fucking awful. Anyway, as a way of punishing myself for past sins, I’ve been thinking on that fresh start concept for bit and I’ve tried to think of what sort of advice I would give that didn’t include a crude anatomical reference or two. Not an easy task, believe me. Really, the only thing I could think of that could produce a fresh start from the festering heap of filth and soiled laundry that constitutes the Bush presidency, would be if he and his entire administration resigned en masse and moved to Cuba, or somewhere else where they couldn’t hurt us anymore. But here’s the problem with that; we would have to find somebody in the line of succession who isn’t inept, corrupt, sadistic or otherwise worthless. I just had a quick look at that thing, and I don’t think there is such a person on the entire list. Sorry darlings, but there will be no fresh starts any time soon. But you already knew that.
