After eight inglorious years the failed presidency of George Bush Jr is limping to its sorry end.
And about time too.
In just a little over ten hours W43 will be on a plane back to Crawford Texas where, if the good woman Laura has any sense of sense and honesty, she will have to tell Junior that he fucked it up good and proper. And if she loved him, she would also hand over a bar of Solvol to remove the blood from his hands.
And what an end.
Replaced by his political antithesis, W43 even had the temerity to honour Australia’s man of turd with a Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Pass the barf bag dear, Mother’s is not feeling well.
While it is not usually oneplanetmikey policy to wish politicians well I feel justifiably compelled to wish Barak Obama all the best. And really, he couldn’t possibly fuck it up any more than Junior.
However I would at this exciting hour remind readers to stay calm. Change does not happen overnight and Obama has inherited a desiccated economy, world wide hatred of his nation and not one, but two wars.
Obama will most definitely have his work cut out for him.
And readers, I would also suggest that the election of an African American to the presidency is not that great a leap forward. The US has, for many years, practiced equal opportunity. God knows they have the intellectually disabled running the country for the past eight.
