Shitty Sunday

Reports are that Iraq will be Bush's top priority this coming week as he attempts to reverse his rapid slide into the shitter. Speechifier William McGurn and crew are preparing rolls of TP for boy George.

Bush has already repeated the ignorance of "stay the course" which bled us 4 decades ago in a US murder spree. So expect to hear more "stay the course" this week in different terms. Bush's January State of the Union address was the first speech written under McGurn. A synopsis of that speech:

a. We have to help Iraqi take control of their own.
b. We have to shine a light on the problems with Social Security.
c. We are committed to diplomacy regarding Iran and N. Korea.
d. We are doing great economically.
e. We have outdated immigration laws.
f. We will end world tyranny.
g. We value family values.

As BushCo remains constipated on the Reality of Iraq we can probably eliminate b, c, d, e, and g. Bush will assure us our presence in Iraq will end world tyranny if we stay the course and help the Iraqi people take control of their own country. He will, in his best wheedle, flatter and toady to the memories of those who have already sacrificed life and limbs in Iraq. In his best methamphetamine inspired confidence he will label those too cowardly to "stay the course" as appeasers/pussies, not that bluntly but in proper McGurnism. Or in McGurn's rewriting of FDR, Lincoln, JFK as those are a few of his favorites.

We may hear a rehash of Abe Lincoln quotes on preserving liberty. The struggle is not just for today but the future, not just for the Iraqi but for ourselves. That God has planted the love of liberty in our bosom (make that heart or spirit) and future generations will rise up to bless and thank us, if we but stay the course. It is the eternal struggle between right and wrong (make that good and evil-doers) and we must not be tempted by the gloom of those who would have us turn away from the struggle. He could use a direct Abe quote: "Those who deny freedom to others, deserve it not for themselves; and, under a just God, can not long retain it." Yea, that sounds good for Bush's current quagstool.

On second thought, the old nazicons just might pull out some Fuhrer speech. It's not like the press will connect the dots or point it out. Some phrases (using the T words instead of Communism): "Terrorism and tyranny with its method of madness is making a powerful and insidious attack discouraging and dividing our nation…" That would put the blame for our lack of uniting back on terrorists, and also eloquently state the old "with us or against us" mentality of Bush.

"Terrorism and tyranny is a fight against culture and the idea of freedom, a war against tradition and honor. It is an attack upon all the foundations of our nation and thus an attack upon the bases of our life….We have to rise above our pain…" See, if we don't keep dying and killing we will lose it all. "It" being our right to make profit, consume gluttonously, gamble, drink, surf porn, and satiate our bases with whatever we damn well please but lets call it love for God and freedom.

McGurn glibbed so much in the first speech he wrote for Bush, the SOTU, with 40 minutes spent on alarmist Social Security b.s. that more of the same can be expected. But, maybe I'm wrong. Bush could order immediate withdrawal from Iraq, admit the DSM is true, and in order to fulfill his uniter claim he's calling for the arrest of hundreds of corrupt politicians, and turning in his resignation. Shit-cans himself (officially).
