Have to say I agree.......

Bill Maher's closing bit the other night:

"Mr. President, this job can't be fun for you any more. There's no more money to spend -- you used up all of that. You can't start another war because you used up the Army. And now, darn the luck, the rest of your term has become the Bush family nightmare: helping poor people. Listen to your Mom. The cupboard's bare, the credit cards maxed out. No one's speaking to you. Mission accomplished.

Now it's time to do what you've always done best: lose interest and walk away. Like you did with your military service and the oil company and the baseball team. It's time. Time to move on and try the next fantasy job. How about cowboy, or space man? Now I know what you're saying: there's so many other things that you as President could involve yourself in. Please don't.

I know, I know. There's a lot left to do. There's a war with Venezuela. Eliminating the sales tax on yachts. Turning the space program over to the church. And Social Security to Fannie Mae. Giving embryos the vote. But, Sir, none of that is going to happen now. Why? Because you govern like Billy Joel drives. You've performed so poorly I'm surprised that you haven't given yourself a medal. You're a catastrophe that walks like a man. Herbert Hoover was a **** president, but even he never conceded an entire city to rising water and snakes. On your watch, we've lost almost all of our allies, the surplus, four airliners, two trade centers, a piece of the Pentagon and the City of New Orleans. Maybe you're just not lucky. I'm not saying you don't love this country. I'm just wondering how much worse it could be if you were on the other side. So, yes, God does speak to you. What He is saying is 'Take a hint."

You'd have ti be a kool-aidaholic not to agree. But it's not surpising who will disagree.

Good chatting with ya yesterday. Your a good brotha. You have a year round ghetto pass.

...because Bill Maher is such a shining example. Didn't he get fired? Oh yeah, he did.

why did he get fired? and your hero lil bush? na,me one business venture he had that didn't screw up? "mission accomplished" indeed.

C'mon Tey, you're an intelligent guy. Haven't you ever noticed that sometimes 2 people of obvious intelligence can have completely opposite opinions?

From our own viewpoints we think, "How can anyone with any kind of smarts think otherwise?" But they do and from their point of view we are the "Kool-Aid-aholics."

Both camps think the other a bunch of dupes that have fallen for the party line propaganda.

It's OK to dislike Dubya for many reasons.

But 9/11 and Katrina are not in that list.

One was a terrorist attack planned years in advance, the other is the weather.

Kool-aid or not, you've got to be a mental midget to agree with Maher on those points.

Perfect point tailgater. There are dozens of politcal reasons to dislike Bush. 9/11 and Katrina should not be on that list. Say what you will about the man, but there hasn't been an attack agianst America or American interests since he started his War on Terror. Katrina was a natural disater that was mishandled on all levels.

Bill Mahr is a smart ass. He makes his living pointing out how stupid other people are but offers nothing.

THL,

good post and i largely agree.

tey

If you agree, why are all of your posts and retorts so laced with vile hatred and slams?

Remember how contrite and sad Bill Maher was when he was whining on every radio talk show that would have him that he did not mean what he said about the 9/11 terrorists? He certainly doesn't remember it.

Oh and in a footnote:

I am one of the die hard Republicans, not a Religous Right member, who is very disgruntled with GWB....but the 9/11 Terror attacks and Katrina are not on my list of why I am mad at him.

i dislike bush because he walks funny. kind of bouncy.

I dislike Bush because of the things he did after 911 and after katrina among a long laundry list of other things.

He didn't cause those disasters but he\his administration were in power at the time and are held accountable for their actions.

We haven't had an attack since is a non-starter with me. Lightning hasn't struck my forhead but I can't take all the credit for that.

Oh sh*t I forgot. Sorry guys.

Bush is good, Bush is great, all Clinton did is fornicate.

What Mickey said.

Politicians all suck

Bite my tongue!!!!

Bill Maher pretty much nailed it.

Charlie,On hurricane Katrina,he took money that was earmarked for levee reinforcement and used it for the war in Iraq. He couldn't prevent the hurricane but it was how his administration handled the aftermath. X

i didn't know you were a rhyming poet.

since bush is in office i have had cataract and lazar surgery, a 4 way by pass, and a staph infection.

i blame him, the bouncy walker.

we are missing the attendance of most of our resident righties.

What is there to respond to? This is a personal attack on Bush and his family by someone whom obviously dislikes them intensely. Bill Maher has a gift for sarcasm but there is little factual in his diatribe. Bill claims to be a Libertarian however, he is the leftmost Libertarian that ever I've heard. He preaches to the choir just like politicians do because after all, he's elected seasonally.

A Leftwing satirist, plying his craft. Some of it hits the nail on the head, some of it is just blind liberal hatespeak.

Notice how he doesn't bash Bush for not having an effective immigration policy? Where's the outrage?

You are looking for a Righty to chime in. You'll still have to wait. But at least you got a Moderate to chime in.
