Basking In the Afterglow

OK, the election has come and gone and my worst fears were not realized (see previous post). The Democrats got almost as much as they could have possibly expected and regained control of both the House and Senate. This has already begun to bear fruit. Bush has expressed a desire to a bipartisan approach to governance. What this really means remains to be seen. The Repug’s idea of a bipartisan approach before this election was to allow Democrats to apply lubricant before they were sodomized.

In addition, Bush’s dad has come to try to bail him out again. Has this guy ever successfully completed a task either with or without the support of the familia? Bush (the elder) has now thrown Rumsfeld under the bus. Bush (the lesser) is only the messenger (not a change). Bush (the elder) has run in some of his old cronies, including Mr. Gates and Mr. Baker. They will attempt to come up with something in Iraq that the Democrats can support and that will allow Bush (the lesser) to save a little face. This is an amazingly familiar recurring pattern. Whether it is covering up a DUI or a drug problem, keeping him out of Vietnam, destroying records of an AWOL military performance, bailing out a bankrupt oil company, letting him play at working for a baseball team, getting almost all the boys a state to play with or trying to put lipstick on the worst looking pig of an administration ever, Bush (the elder) has had a full time job getting his cronies to prop up his idiot child.
This election is a good start but 2008 can not get here soon enough for our country.

Hurry sundown, please hurry.
