Skokie Swift (alias Tedo) has a great post today:



So this is what you call, compassionate conservatism. You continue to impose sanctions on Cuba just to piss off Fidel Castro, who's probably going to outlive another Bush presidency, and further squeeze the already impoverished regular Cubans, whose relatives in Florida you have to please to protect your electoral votes in November. Then, you bomb some independent state in the Mideast to show some "examples" of your experiment and justify it as part of the war against terror. Then you smoke out Saddam, whom your dad and the military complex created in the first place. Then you cut and cut and cut and cut taxes even when you are in the red and even if 44 million of your people don't have health insurance. Failing to find your WMD or Osama bin Laden, you drop a bomb by announcing that you support a constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriage virtually discriminating millions of your own people denying them equal protection of the law. Then you raise one hundred seventy million dollars from special interest groups to bankroll your re-election and roll over your opponent labeling him as unpatriotic even as he served in Vietnam while you were soaking up the sun in Alabama. Very nice.


Hehehe. I love Dubya-bashing. I really have no respect for morons, even if they are the President of the United States.
