Got this by e-mail today, perhaps it fits!


"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 shitty 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.' "

After Bush - the deluge

By Yossi Sarid



When the successful son of Barbara the First Lady is a first among

unequals, one sometimes succumbs to feelings of panic, and wants to stop

the world and get off. George Bush is without doubt the most terrifying

president America has ever had. Now one can sit in the submerged streets

of New Orleans and cry a river of tears over the fate of a human race that

has him as its leader. After five years in office, it is possible to pass

judgment on the legacy he is passing on, to the everlasting ignominy of

the denizens of this world.



What is so frightening about him and his leadership? Although "where there

is no vision, the people cast off restraint," when there is a messianic

vision composed of faith-based pie-in-the-sky, the earth seems to be

jolted off its axis and begins to spin out of control. As we know, Bush is

a "born again," and wherever people who have found the old-time religion

take their stand, intelligent people run away, as if from fire. Instead of

running the world and its inhabitants, as one may expect of the leader of

the free world, Bush acts as someone who is reinventing the world on a

mission from God.



As a first step in fixing the world, the president several years ago

refused to sign the Kyoto treaty. If the costs of fixing it are too high,

then the world can go to hell. The big avaricious corporations, the main

polluters, applauded him. What do Bush and the leviathans care if the

ozone layer is disintegrating, the greenhouse effect is intensifying, the

oceans are warming up, the desert is expanding not only in Africa and Asia

but also in Europe, and the number of hungry is growing by the hundreds of

millions? The world can revert to a state of chaos - so long as the

messenger does not violate his covenant with the Divine Providence and

with the supervisors down below. It may very well be that the warming of

the oceans contributed to Katrina, but who is going to tell a shepherd

what is good for his flock while it is drowning in a flood?



While "the fixer" has been on the job, there has been a breakdown of the

world order, which is intended to prevent the proliferation of weapons of

mass destruction. The UN summit that convened three months ago with the

aim of continuing to reduce the nuclear threat, was unable - for the first

time ever - to reach any conclusions whatsoever; the summit broke up amid

feelings of consternation and oblivion. Over 100 participating countries

perceived the American hypocrisy - who is allowed to have forbidden

weapons, and who is not - and a double-standard policy that is heading

toward a breakdown. Iran and North Korea were not the only revelers at the

gala finale of the failed summit.



The world according to Bush is now more polarized than ever. A new poll

that was released last week indicates that a decisive European majority -

approximately 72 percent - rejects his policies and does not trust him.

And how could it trust him, if this coming winter everyone will be paying

to heat their homes twice or more what they paid before he took the reins?

The global oil market has gone crazy. It goes without saying that the

aforementioned homes would be heated only by those who own a home and a

car, not those wallowing in life's dunghill under a blackened sky.



During his presidency global terror raised up its ugly head, and when he

suppressed it, it only spread further. That is what happens when you only

strike a blow, but do not attempt to heal. Although the murderous regime

of Saddam Hussein has been eliminated, it is being replaced by a more

murderous reality. Since the war in Iraq broke out, about 40,000 people

there have been killed. One doubts whether the murder victims really care

just who is killing them, or why.



Under the leadership of the fastest gun in the West, the United States has

proved to the entire world that it has no one to rely upon, and no one to

take example from. Even America's own poor do not take precedence. In the

prisons of Baghdad and Guantanamo, America's image as the sentinel of

human rights has been shattered. And in the graveyards of America, so has

its image as a country that offers a good life. And America's reputation

has even suffered in Beijing and New Delhi, for even there they do not

envy the morbidity and mortality rates of American babies, as publicized

last week by the Washington's central bureau of statistics.
