GEORGE W. BUSH - AN EPIPHANY

GEORGE W. BUSH – AN EPIPHANY ©

by Norman Liebmann

One of the most notorious episodes of World War ll occurred when a one time famous football hero, as an American bomber pilot, did one of the most reprehensible acts a commanding officer can do under fire. His plane took some flak and he bailed out on his crew. It seems a perfect analogy for our lame duck President who will soon be bailing out on America. Indeed, no President ever seemed more poised to leave his country higher and dryer.

We need teams of semanticists to determine whether the Bush Administration is “winding down” or “moving on”. In any event, America is slipping away. The Bush mantra seems to be “In weakness there is strength”. We are moments away from Armageddon and Bush has OD’d on compassion. America is in a holding pattern while the administration waits for some Arab fanatic to light the fuse for the unthinkable.

Before leaving office, Bush is divesting control of key elements of American infrastructure to business interests in Swarthyland and Oogalboogladesh. It’s apparent his idea that U.S. ports are a liability didn’t fly, and he is marking time with regard to liquidating other American assets. Any similar Bush idea coming down the pike is likely to be dead on arrival.

Rather than having the courage of its convictions, the Bush Administration has demonstrated the convictions of its courage. The continuous saber rattling from Iran inspires cringing in Washington. Bush nurses Iraq along while allowing the rest of the Middle East to run foul with the pus of Islam. The War on Terror is impeded by considerations of comfort, convenience and compassion. The latter is by far the most dangerous. (Airports should be equipped with compassion detectors and commiseration sniffing dogs.)

Our President allows psychotics in Iran and Syria to send proxy fanatics to fight Israel while Lebanese civilians volunteer to be collateral damage. Democrats and Republicans whine about how much they hate terrorists. In the words of George Bernard Shaw, “Hatred is the coward’s revenge for having been intimidated”. Super power is defined by who is at the Launch button. It is said, the first insult unanswered is parent to a thousand others. Hugo Chavez’s vulgar remarks about Condoleeza Rice should have been enough to spring open the lids on the missile silos.

Europeans reproach the U.S. for Camp Gitmo. In Russia’s Lubyanka Prison a KGB interrogator can get a signed confession out of a bowling ball. Inevitably bowing to liberal pressure, terrorists henceforth will be detained in cabanas and the name Camp Gitmo will be changed to Geneva Convention-by-the-Seaside. Ultimately Bush might decide that compassion is not enough. The 82nd Airborne will be retrained to have a maternal instinct and sustain themselves in the field with estrogen-laced K Rations. Carrier task forces will bob at anchor like Princess Cruise ships.

Our leader has been overtaken by events. After restraint and compassion he’s out of alternatives. His ability to handle North Korea and Iran’s threat to the civilized world is being met with thermonuclear skepticism. As for the Democrat Party, the nation cannot find a pulse, much less a policy.

INVADERS FROM GUACAMOLE LAND

George W. Bush thinks of himself as another Dr. Livingstone doing missionary work among the heathen. He might consider, twenty minutes after arriving in Africa, Dr. Livingstone swore he was though making house calls. He wants to be remembered in history as the champion of the world’s chronic underachievers. No better way than to have his image sculpted on Mount Mexmore. There is already a motion picture in progress commemorating Bush’s efforts in this direction. Filming hasn’t begun, but the producers have already completed the English subtitles.

Like Charles Darwin, Bush has an affinity for anything primitive, especially Mexicans who lag behind the Galapagos Islanders who could at least climb trees and tease big lizards. One thing is certain. Bush will leave America as he found it – up to its ass in illegal aliens whose mission it is to collapse our culture. Iraq still remains his previous obsession - ignoring the fact that good taste generally limits obsessions one to a customer.

The civilizing process in Iraq, having failed, Bush is moving forward to Anschluss with Mexico. Karl Rove, the Joachim Von Ribbentrop of the Bush Administration, has been sent to woo La Raza (the Hezbollah, of the American Southwest) ostensibly to re-surrender the Alamo. Hence, Bush’s scheme to amalgamate all of North America has been de-pantsed. Bush can’t wait to hang this albatross around America’s neck - while most of us are hoping to find a way to tie a Windsor knot in it.

[Note: Vote-hungry Democrat and Republican politicians are preparing us for Mexico’s re-conquest of America by conditioning us with a sense of racial guilt. Some Americans are now reluctant to refer to themselves as “white” for fear of offending anyone who isn't.]

The liberals and its media machine keep telling us illegal aliens are wonderful people. It may be true, but it sure as hell is not noticeable. Bush has an irresistible fascination for primitives. If the process of Evolution has failed to coax them out of the trees Bush’s blandishments are unlikely to succeed.

Vicente Fox and George Bush are each other’s poodles. Fox keeps sending his ethnic moths to gnaw holes in the American social fabric, while Bush patiently presides over the dissolution of our nation. Americans are becoming intolerant of excessive tolerance and that will sound Taps for the GOP. (It is doubtful that the Republicans will win the next election. Hillary Clinton will get the illegal alien vote, promising to build an abortion clinic in every alley behind a Taco Bell.)

After leaving office, our vacating President can further ventilate his recently acquired left-leaning views by becoming a commentator on television. An appropriate name for the show would be Hannity and Bush. Sensing the opening, Alan Colmes will run for President, he having all the qualifications to become Eunuch-in-Chief. (John F. Kerry was merely helpless while Alan Colmes is totally hopeless.)

From the Clinton Administration to the Bush Administration we have gone from open zippers to open borders. Transylvania does a better job of protecting itself against incursion by undocumented vampires. Lawlessness on the border is no longer an oversight. It’s an addiction. Are Americans tired of illegal aliens? Has Jimmy Hoffa developed an allergy to cement?

Bush is convinced there is no disparity between legal and illegal Mexicans. That is approximate to the notion that there is no difference between Shinola and its metaphoric mate. Bush considers any quadruped without a counterfeit driver’s license as underprivileged. Unhappily, some people are homeless, but it is a redeeming fact that nobody has to live next door to them.

Anyone born in Mexico can hardly but perceive the grass as greener anyplace else – including Antarctica. The Arab invasion has made Europe an even more backward continent than Africa. Stoop laborers will do the same for North America. The hemisphere will be crossed by a new line of demarcation called the Tropic of Stupidity.

The Aztec version of the Nuremberg rally that took place in American cities revealed the Mexicans’ inherent hostility to their hosts. In turn, tourists who once regarded Mexico an attraction now consider it an affliction. They are regarded like the Barbary apes on Gibraltar. Long accustomed to being hand-fed, these Macaques have turned vicious and now consider the tourists as “finger food”.

Unhappily, in this world of enemies, compassion is the Bush sedative of choice. One way he might cure himself of his excessive sympathy for Mexicans is to take another trip to Mexico – but this time not as President of the United States.

ISLAM

The Bush policy in dealing with Arabs seems based on a single precept: when in doubt look like you mean no harm. The Iraq misadventure in nation building went down the tubes when Bush decided it would be a cool move to have the Marines play squat tag outside of Fallujah while insurgents within sharpened their scimitars and stuffed teddy bears with anthrax.

By making their children into little bomblets for blowing themselves into smithereens, Arabs seek to create the perception that Moslems don’t feel pain. Not only do they feel it, they deserve it. The general consensus is that Moslems are the dirtiest, smelliest people ever to infect God’s Earth. It is impossible to tell where an Arab ends and his camel begins. Mecca is the men’s room of the Islamic world. They leave their shoes outside the mosque even though they are more likely to step in something foul inside. All so-called true believers are expected to make at least one pilgrimage to Mecca for the ritual milling around a big black box. Presumably, it is the actual box that no Moslem can think outside of.

Until this writing there was not heard one inference, one hint, one allusion, or one suggestion that the U.S. should send the kind of high-tech weaponry to Israel that would level the playing field which Syria and Iran are doing their best to un-level. It appears, as far as Bush is concerned, there are only two kinds of rockets –those that go up and those that come down.

DIPLOMACY

I can think of nothing that gives me more a feeling of desolation then the G8 world leaders and the other process junkies (the means is the end) smiling while Moslems spill “infidel” blood in the street. Diplomacy is like sitting at a railroad crossing waiting for an endless freight train to pass by. The objective of process is more process, and no amount of diplomacy will coax the Islamic Preparation H back into the tube – or any other place it rightfully belongs.

The G8 Conference was of course a fiasco. The sound of sabers rattling from Iran has already brought Europe to its knees. It is 1931 all over again. Why discuss the merits of the Middle East conflict with Putin? Anti-Semitism is as Russian as borscht, and Katyusha is not a name made up by Eskimos. This will not keep Bush from opening the velvet rope to welcome the Russkies into the World Trade Organization, which is a global NAFTA and repository for economic conspiracies.

The appearances of world leaders tend to reflect their characters and intentions. Vladimir Putin looks like an outtake from Grimm’s fairy tales. "Chuminess" is an apt word to describe his relationship with Bush - “chum” being the stuff used to attract sharks. (Bush must think KGB spells cat.) Putin’s failure to exact retribution for the hostage-taking and killing of Russian school children in Beslan has not embarrassed him before the world. Apparently, it has not sunk in that Chechens are Muslims, and have the same reek and cruelty as Muslims everywhere.

France’s leader, Jacques Chirac, is world-class coward. Joe Louis once said of an opponent “He can run but he can’t hide”. If his opponent had been a Frenchmen he would have been able to do both. France depends for its defense on an Army that knows it can count on being rescued sometime, somewhere, by somebody.

We await the world leaders proclamation condemning Hugo “We Don’t Gotta Show You No Steenkin’ Badges” Chavez, and the ostrich-like Bashir Assad whose neck still cries out for a rope. It should include some reproach of that psychotic in Iran who was driven mad by an inability to spell his own name, and Kim Jong Il who will remain beloved in his country until he has starved the love out of it.

In the search for peace, inevitably the world looks to a United Nations Organization that has descended from futility into criminality, and turns to Kofi Annan, who looks like an aging turd in a $5,000 Yves St. Laurent suit. Annan agreed to blame the Israelis for the decline and fall of everybody and everything. It is the pivotal stipulation in his infamous anti-Semitism for Food agreement with Saddam Hussein.

PRETENSE ON THE POTOMAC

Political hypocrisy in the U.S. Senate has poisoned this generation. In an earlier time, these pretenders would have inspired Oscar Wilde to change the title of his inestimable play from “The Importance of Being Earnest” to The Importance of Sounding Earnest. While Syria and Iran have loaded the Hezbollah up with rockets, our Senate has not authorized shipping Israel even a Swiss Army knife. Boxer, Feinstein, Schummer, Lieberman, Specter, Feingold, (kapo mentality Jews in the Senate) have uttered precious few words in defense of Israel.

The U.S. Senate is a tower of apathy and the most incompetent empanelment in the history of governance. Democrats criticize Bush for his lack of “involvement” in the Middle East, unlike Bill Clinton who had a three room apartment up Yasser Arafat’s ass. Inertia reigns. The Democrats are in spinal deficit. The Republicans are in intellectual short fall, and the Bush Administration has become The Stepford Administration. The nation’s debt is going through the roof and Bush is thinking of appointing to his cabinet a Secretary of Squander. The White House will confront the exorbitant price of gasoline only after NASCAR drivers run dry and the Auto Club has to be called to tow the winner across the Finish Line. Saddam Hussein and Cindy Sheehan are both alive and well, while the Marines killed in Beirut, at the Khobar Towers, and the sailors aboard the USS Cole are not avenged. Something is not working.

It is time for George W. Bush to stop boasting about America being the world’s only super power and start demonstrating it by responding in a way that will set fire to every beard in Islam.

It's odd that the author doesn't provide a name.

In the absence of an answer to your post #83 and my post #94 in this rather lengthy thread, it appears the writer begins with a myth instead of fact. I have complete confidence in the intelligence of those on FR and if this incident actually happened, someone on FR would have reported it.

Don't get me wrong; I have absolutely no problem with the rules for those kind of posts. It's just the guy who chimes in in the second post reminding everyone of the "rules" before anyone even has a chance to post any pictures just kind of irks me.

It reminds me of the little cartoon dog and the big cartoon dog with the sweater. The little dog is jumping around the big dog asking, "What do you want to do now, Boss? Huh? What are we gonna do?". Clearly trying to get in the big dogs good graces he just manages to p!ss the big dog off.

and all along it was racist posters that won it for us.

we are at war...when we were at war with the Japanese, Germans and Italians we made them subhuman through media propaganda to make the fighting and killing go a bit easier.....we now need to use all tools in our war against radical Islam (or if need be all of Islam...as there does appear to be moderate Muslims, but not moderate Islam).

as far as your political correctness??

Political Correctness is Marxism with a nose job.

In a huff?

I don't do "huff".

I left for a while, and now I'm (somewhat) back.

I come and go as I please.

As usual you jump in to ridicule anyone with conservative opinions.I think this guy is right up there with Mark Stein and Ann Coulter. He understands the big picture and everyone on this thread would be wise to carefully re-read the entire article and take it to heart. He absolutely nailed it!

coming from you, I'll take that as a compliment.

Wanting to nuke everyone who opposes us IS NOT a conservative value, only an minority value on FR for a few nuts like yourself.

I'm perfectly willing to kill people who deserve to be killed (such as the Jihadists) and to also have the killing done in my name. We also have plenty of men and women in our military volunteering to kill the Jihadists because they feel the same way. I don't see why invoking racism to goad more people into helping is of any benefit. If the morally legitimate reason isn't enough, then why would a reason based on mindless bigotry suffice?

In this case, the "author" is also the "poster".

Pardon me while I borrow your Self-Appointed Posting Police hat, but I notice that you have made an error in punctuation.
