Why Send It To Washington When You Can Send It To Baghdad?

[cbertsch]

An article on the sort of speech George W. Bush is likely to give for his State of the Union address this evening provides the following insight:

President Bush is certain to focus on the economy on Monday night, reiterating his faith in Americans’ enterprise and work ethic, arguing for a short-term shot in the arm and repeating his call for low taxes as a permanent way of life. Mr. Bush believes deeply in Americans’ “keeping more of their hard-earned money, rather than sending it to Washington,” as his spokeswoman, Dano Perino, put it the other day.

Will there ever come a day when this Administration acknowledges the gap between rhetoric and reality? It would seem not. Then again, after doing everything in their power to sustain and strengthen a demographic either unwilling or unable to make that distinction, the powers behind our President may have lost the capacity to recognize that there are still people out there who lack that lack of insight.

You know they had to fly extra secret service agents over to Saudi Arabia during Bush's recent trip to guard the PILES OF GOLD that the Saudi Princelings were heaping upon him. The goal is to lower taxes so that people have more money to give to them. Again, they do not care how rich they are. They do not want people to be wealthier. They take pleasure in forcing the masses to grovel. They want feudalism.

It sure does seem that way. The fact that no one made a serious attempt on his life over there is ample proof of how things are really run. I know Michael Moore plays fast and loose, but those scenes from Fahrenheit 911 still resonate.
