Insanity or Bust: Bush Statue Further Frays Liberal Nerves
The Powers That Be/MND ^ | Saturday, February 11, 2006 | Doug Powers

Posted on 02/11/2006 6:45:59 AM PST by Nasty McPhilthy

Bob Cesca, writing at the blog founded by the Gabor sister from the nether world, Arianna Huffington, points out something else to add to the pancake stack of things that bothers the left.

On Thursday, at the National Guard Memorial Building in Washington, President Bush was presented with a bust of himself. There is one interesting feature that is sure to give Democrats and Bush-haters of all shapes and sizes either hope, or the nervous trots.

Here's the bust:

Cesca points out that, besides wondering if the Bush bust is wearing a flight suit, if you take a closer look, the date of Bush's presidency says "2001- ". The lack of an end date has some Democrats freaking out. Read the short-busload of comments to Cesca's post. You won't find this level of bitterness even at a divorced women's meeting.

Some Dems are thinking that, because Bush was only "appointed" in 2001 instead of "elected", Bush is technically only on his first term, and may try to extend what should have been the default end date of 2009.

The good news? At least Democrats are admitting they lost in 2004. Whew!

There are some, however, who are expressing rank-and-file Democrat optimism-- which is as rare as humility in Bill Clinton. Some are thinking the end date could be sooner rather than later, as it is believed that impeachment proceedings are imminent.

Did it ever occur to them that maybe Bush had it done that way on purpose? Maybe Bush really loves creating an avalanche of frayed nerves among the left.

Things like-- throwing out the first pitch at a baseball game while still on an extremely heightened terror alert

--Suddenly showing up at the Baghdad airport for Thanksgiving grub with military men and women

--Being a "dumb moronic idiot" who yet somehow rose to the level of President of the United States while the pathetic campus-dwelling lifers, 35 year old losers living in their parents' basement, career whiners, and angry "passed over again for the promotion and somebody's going to pay" cubicle detainees log on to Huffington Post message boards and call him stupid

--And, sticking a landing on an aircraft carrier and jumping out of the plane in a flight suit, all drive them crazy.

Bush landing on the USS Abraham Lincoln was a particularly defining moment in his affection for point-blank right-hooks to the jaw of liberal disdain, and continues to drive his critics bonkers. Especially those like Ted Kennedy, who are far more likely to hit the water than the deck.

Also, Bush's headgear fit. Thanks to unfortunate precedent set by Mike Dukakis, who once looked as if somebody placed a khaki wok upside-down on the head of a mentally challenged Greek bobblehead doll, you'll never in a million years see another Democratic candidate wearing a helmet.

So, Bush receives an honor from the National Guard (a neat trick for somebody who "never served" eh?) and liberal sphinkters are all-a-pucker. All in all, not a bad close to the week.

As for Bush-hating liberals, the destination remains "Insanity or bust". In this case, they get both.

LMAO. If Bush had put 2001-2009, the Left would complain that Bush arrogantly assumes he is immune to impeachment.

The Left reminds me of a girlfriend I once had. Total Loon.

His pilot (Ooops, Naval aviator) may have stuck the landing but he certainly didn't. On second thought, let the moonbats think he did - it's good for his image. :=)

Psssst... Don't tell anybody, because if the secret gets out there are a bunch of leftists who are going to have sudden heart attacks, but...

The bust was created as the first step in a secret plan to add the likeness of President Bush to Mt. Rushmore...

I landed on a carrier once, but it was not as scary...it was on a Helicopter. The landing was easy, what was scary was flying at about 150 feet for miles across the Florida everglades and looking down wondering how many gators would be there to chomp on us if the chopper went down.

Gotcha beat. I drove a Subaru on the Connie. Across the flight deck, down the elevator, and through the hanger.

This cracks me up. "the Gabor sister from the nether world, Arianna Huffington." I think it is especially funny when Ariana goes after Chris Matthews. Chris who? And then what'sher name at the NYT did the same. Maybe he is paying them to boost ratings.

Then Randi Rhoades came on braying about Bush using the words terror, terrorism, terrorist 90 times in a speech. You know, just trying to scare everyone. So I looked it up. He was speaking to the National Guard and the subject was to update the military on the war on terror? Duh! Randi. I have to turn her off immediately, but I wonder what she wants to talk about instead. I suppose she is ignoring Iran for Abramhoff.
