Lame Duck Quacks

I have the radio on during the day at work, subdued, but audible. I'm currently listening to the 'State of the Union' address by George W. Bush. The last one this reprehensible example of a machavellian politician will deliver, which should please millions.

It's a speech filled to overflowing with empty rhetoric, motherhood statements and promises which will last at best, 11 months. Filled also with war-like statements against Iran, talk of better care for the country's 'wounded warriors' and some extra special emphasis on the state of play in Iraq. A war this lame duck President started five years ago this coming March, and one which will continue on long after he leaves office, leaving that country wracked by sectarian violence and political corruption on a scale that dwarfs the efforts of Saddam Hussein.

Eleven months, America. That's all you have to cope with. Let's all sincerely hope that this military minded moron currently warming a seat in your Whitehouse doesn't take into his high-IQ mind that he needs to leave a bigger indelible mark on your country's history than he's already made. Thanks to George W. Bush, your national reputation, in many minds, is akin to the porcelin bowl in your bathroom. George W. Bush is that dirty brown stain on the back face of the S-bend.
