Bill Clinton, Al Gore, and George W. Bush were set to face a firing squad in
a small Central American country. Bill Clinton was the first one placed
against the wall and just before the order was given he yelled out,
"Earthquake!" The firing squad fell into a panic and Bill jumped over the
wall and escaped in the confusion.

Al Gore was the second one placed against the wall. The squad was
reassembled and Al pondered what he had just witnessed. Again before the
order was given Al yelled out, "Tornado!" Again the squad fell apart and Al
slipped over the wall.

The last person, George W. Bush, was placed against the wall. He was
thinking, "I see the pattern here, just scream out something about a
disaster and hop over the wall." He confidently refused the blindfold as the
firing squad was reassembled. As the rifles were raised in his direction he
grinned from ear to ear and yelled, "Fire!"

That's more or less what the strutting, incompetent, lying nincompoop
has accomplished in the past five years.

Entirely possible. He certainly has a remarkable talent for making himself
look stupid. One is of course bound to wonder how such a person could ever
become president of the USA. One is also moved to something akin to pity for
those obliged to endure such.

However this may be, don´t you people ever get tired of this ****?

See, we have something out here called wild trout streams. They aren't
created by a magic wand. These streams are all across the western
U.S., and they all flow from wild areas that need protection in order
for the stream quality to endure. The Bush administration doesn't like
that.

So, real fly fishermen will never get tired of pointing out crooked
folk who wish to take or devleop public land.

Mike, America has fallen victim to their own advertising. rather than
listen, or think, they (Americans) want to hear something in twenty words or
less that 'sound good.' A real logic deprived nation. Rather than say we
can not about the future and will not participate in any greenhouse gas
reduction, that we will postpone the problems and put them on our children,
we grasp the phrase the Kyoto Accords are 'not in our financial best
interests.'

Americans are unable to recall why we quashed Iraq and instead, use whatever
reason Bush is spouting.

...it has gotten so bad that most people vote for who they think is going to
be the winner, my god they think they are at a race track.

Good honest people who are otherwise very intelligent, have little or no
clue when it comes to our politicians. It's embarrassing not to mention
saddening....

....As to how W got elected, well....that's a long story.

....Wait! Let me finish!

Indeed, I fear you may be right. A very interesting analysis. Thanks.

Hope you and everybody else here has a nice Christmas.

We may as well all die now. Woe is us. hand wringing.

Despite the fact that we will all be dead soon (some would have you
believe sooner than later), at least I can wish you all a Merry
Christmas this one last gulp time. ;-)
