Posting this only because we havent had a good ol left wing right wing argument in quite some time.

Lefties gogogogogogo
MK/Beav: have fun.

The following 'speech' was written recently by an
ordinary Maineiac [a resident of the People's Republic
of Maine]. While satirical in nature, all satire must have
a basis in fact to be effective. This is an excellent piece
by a person who does not write for a living.
The speech George W. Bush might give:

Normally, I start these things out by saying 'My Fellow Americans.'
Not doing it this time. If the polls are any indication, I don't know who more than half of you are anymore. I do know something terrible has happened, and that you're really not fellow Americans any longer.
I'll cut right to the chase here: I quit. Now before anyone gets all in a lather about me quitting to avoid impeachment, or to avoid prosecution or something, let me assure you: There's been no breaking of laws or impeachable offenses in this office.

The reason I'm quitting is simple. I'm fed up with you people.
I'm fed up because you have no understanding of what's really
going on in the world. Or of what's going on in this once-great
nation of ours. And the majority of you are too damned lazy to
do your homework and figure it out.
Let's start local. You've been sold a bill of goods by politicians
and the news media. Polls show that the majority of you think
the economy is in the tank. And that's despite record numbers
of homeowners, including record numbers of MINORITY
homeowners. And while we're mentioning minorities, I'll point
out that minority business ownership is at an all-time high. Our unemployment rate is as low as it ever was during the Clinton administration. I've mentioned all those things before, but it doesn't seem to have sunk in.

Despite the shock to our economy of 9/11, the stock market has rebounded to record levels and more Americans than ever
are participating in these markets. Meanwhile, all you can do
is whine about gas prices, and most of you are too damn stupid
to realize that gas prices are high because there's increased
demand in other parts of the world, and because a small handful of noisy idiots are more worried about polar bears and beachfront property than your economic security.
We face real threats in the world. Don't give me this 'blood for
oil' thing. If I were trading blood for oil I would've already
seized Iraq's oil fields and let the rest of the country go to hell.
And don't give me this 'Bush Lied; People Died' crap either.
If I were the liar you morons take me for, I could've easily had
chemical weapons planted in Iraq so they could be 'discovered.'
Instead, I owned up to the fact that the intelligence was faulty.

Let me remind you that the rest of the world thought Saddam
had the goods, same as me. Let me also remind you that regime
change in Iraq was official US policy before I came into office.
Some guy named 'Clinton' established that policy. Bet you didn't know that, did you? Now some of you morons are considering another and more evil Clinton for president !!!! Go figure that one!! She wants to take your kids away and let the 'Whole Village' raise them! i.e. governmental indoctrination .. Look this one up you dumb asses!
The rest of you morons want to be led by a junior senator with
no understanding of foreign policy or economics, and this nitwit says we should attack Pakistan, a nucular ally. And then he wants to go to Iran and make peace with a terrorist who says he's going to destroy us. While he's doing that, he wants to give Iraq to al Qaeda, Afghanistan to the Taliban, Israel to the Palestinians, and your money to the IRS so the government can give welfare to illegal aliens, who he will make into citizens, so they can vote to reelect him. He also thinks it's okay for Iran to have nucular weapons, and we should stop our foreign aid to Israel. Did you sleep through high school? You idiots need to understand that we face a unique enemy.
Back during the cold war, there were two major competing
political and economic models squaring off. We won that war,
but we did so because fundamentally, the Communists wanted
to survive, just as we do. We were simply able to out spend
and out-tech them.

That's not the case this time. The soldiers of our new
enemy don't care if they survive. In fact, they want to die.
That'd be fine, as long as they weren't also committed to
taking as many of you with them as they can. But they are.
They want to kill you, and the bastards are all over the globe.
You should be grateful that they haven't gotten any more of us
here in the United States since September 11. But you're not.
That's because you've got no idea how hard a small number of
intelligence, military, law enforcement, and homeland security
people have worked to make sure of that. When this whole mess
started, I warned you that this would be a long and difficult fight. I'm disappointed how many of you people think a long and difficult fight amounts to a single season of 'Survivor.'

Instead, you've grown impatient. You're incapable of seeing
things through the long lens of history, the way our enemies do. You think that wars should last a few months, a few years, tops.
Making matters worse, you actively support those who help
the enemy. Every time you buy the New York Times, every
time you send a donation to a cut-and-run Democrat's political
campaign, well, dang it, you might just as well FedEx a grenade
launcher to a Jihadist. It amounts to the same thing.

In this day and age, it's easy enough to find the truth. It's
all over the Internet. It just isn't on the pages of the New
York Times, USA Today, or on NBC News. But even if it
were, I doubt you'd be any smarter. Most of you would
rather watch American Idol or Dancing with Stars.
I could say more about your expectations that the government
will always be there to bail you out, even if you're too stupid to leave a city that's below sea level and has a hurricane approaching.

I could say more about your insane belief that government,
not your own wallet, is where the money comes from. But I've
come to the conclusion that were I to do so, it would sail right
over your heads.
So I quit. I'm going back to Crawford. I've got an energy-efficient house down there (Al Gore could only dream) and the capability to be fully self-sufficient for years. No one ever heard of Crawford before I got elected, and as soon as I'm done here pretty much no one will ever hear of it again. Maybe I'll be lucky enough to die of old age before the last pillars of America fall.

Oh, and by the way, Cheney's quitting too. That means Pelosi
is your new President. You asked for it. Watch what she does
carefully, because I still have a glimmer of hope that there are
just enough of you remaining who are smart enough to turn this
thing around in 2008.
So that's it. God bless what's left of America.
Some of you know what I mean.
The rest of you, kiss off.
PS - You might want to start learning Farsi, and buy a Koran.

This wouldn't be right-wing / left-wing. It would be far right-wing / rest of the country. Bush is polling at an all-time low popularity, worse than Nixon the day before Watergate, way worse than Carter ever got. Everybody hates him except the crazy right-wingers who will love him forever no matter how big a fuckup he is.

You all can complain forever that nobody understands just how great Bush's term has been. You'll fit in well, right next to the guys who think Carter was the greatest president ever.

And once again you guys miss when I am just having some fun. It's obviously a ridiculous internet mailing. I just love watching yoy guys get all worked up.

I'm gonna plead guilty to taking this stuff seriously. I'm just a dumbass who never learns not to take ant seriously about anything ever.

Just to add fuel to the fire.....I'll take the Bush family (including Sr) over the Clinton family anytime.

Yes, Jr has turned out to be a major disappointment, but his dad was pretty good. The Clintons both massivley suck IMO.
