Dubya The Dud
If you hate him and you know it clap your hands (louder I can't hear you). If you hate him and you know it (aha...now I do). Sorry about that, but I guess this is good a time as any to tell about my little obsession with good ol' Dubya. That man is too much for words. I don't know how the American people entrusted their livelyhood and wellbeing in his hands. Honestly, the thought makes me nervous. I remember the night of the election I was hoping Al Gore to win, and I was listening to it all night on the radio. I fell asleep sometime before the count came in, and woke up the next day and there was still no verdict! And everyone knows the rest of that story...*tear* My biggest ambition right now is to make George feel about "this" small. I'd love to meet him, shake his hand, smile, and ask "so George, how does it feel to know you're only here on a technicality, that in all honesty the majority of the American people wanted Al to lead them?" I wonder if he would become pale or just so angry his head will become purple and a vein will pop? Bad thoughts I know, but there is something about that man that brings out my most awful tendencies. Especially after that whole axis of evil speech. Did he think that was helping the situation? He ended up making things worse for everyone, including himself. In a way he was aiding the same Iranian hardliners that he has such a problem with. I can guarantee the problem there is worse now for the reformists since the clerics are probably saying "we told you so, try and make peace with the Americans and they pounce and you". Stupid stupid man. So on that note, welcome to the Dubya haters page, where we will spend our time laughing and pointing at his mistakes and his rather ugly face. In fact keep reading for some of the more interesting and pathetic things he has said during his time in office (may it be short).
