From Amoeba Music - MySpace.com - Bulletin Entry

This is from a bulletin entry on MySpace.com made by the fine folks at Amoeba Music -- at this time it's reprinted without permission, but it NEEDS to be reprinted:



the Bush family nightmare: helping poor black people

America must recall the president. That's what this
country needs: a good old-fashioned California-
style recall election complete with petitions, finger-
pointing and a ridiculous cast of replacement
candidates.

Just like Gray Davis had to do here in California,
George W. Bush must now defend his job
against... Russell Crowe! Because at this point, I
want a leader who will throw a phone at somebody.
Naomi Campbell can be vice president - only
phone throwers, people!

Come on, Mr. President, this can't be fun for you
anymore. You can't spend more of our money,
because you used it all up. And you can't start
another war, because you've used up the troops.
And when it comes to reacting to hurricanes, you
made your old man look like St. Francis of Assisi.

Your job has turned into the Bush family
nightmare: helping poor black people.

The cupboards bare, the credit cards maxed out
and no ones speaking to you - mission
accomplished!

Now it's time to do what you do best: lose interest
and walk away, like you did with your military
service and the oil company and the baseball team.

Time to move on and try the next fantasy job. How
about cowboy or spaceman?

Oh, I know what you're saying: "Hey, I've got three
more years, and there's so many other things I
want to touch." Please don't.

I know, I know, there's so much left to do: war with
Venezuela, eliminating the sales tax on yachts
and diamonds, turning the space program over to
the church, handing healthcare over to Halliburton
and Social Security to Fannie Mae, giving embryos
the vote.

But none of that's going to happen now. Why?
Because you're the first American president to
lose a whole city. Jimmy Carter never lost a city.
Herbert Hoover was a lousy president, but he didn't
concede an entire metropolis to rising water and
snakes.

You've performed so poorly you should give
yourself a medal. You're a catastrophe that walks
like a man. On your watch we've lost almost all of
our allies, the budget surplus, four airliners, two
trade centers, a piece of the Pentagon and the city
if New Orleans. Maybe you're just not lucky.

I'm not saying you don't love this country. I'm just
wondering how much worse it could be if you were
on the other side. Yes, God does speak to you.
And he's saying: "Take a hint."
