ME TO BUSH: RIDE INTO THE SUNSET AND GO AWAY FOREVER

I am back at home in Texas after having spent several days in Washington, D.C. I highly recommend a visit to the Smithsonian Museums, by the way, if you want to reconnect with who we are as a people, that is, before the Bush GOP twisted and distorted our ethos.

Moving on....

Below is a piece sent from a Barbara Ann Radnofsky (Texas candidate for US Senate 06) campaign volunteer on Bill Maher's closing remarks on his show. Remember, Barbara Ann Radnofsky is running against a Bush policy rubber-stamping and ethos distorting Kay Bailey Hutchison. LS

Mr. President, this job can't be fun for you any more. There's no more money
to spend- you used up all of that. You can't start another war because you
used up the army. And now, darn the luck, the rest of your term has become
the Bush family nightmare: helping poor people. Listen to your Mom. The
cupboard's bare, the credit cards maxed out. No one is speaking to you.
Mission accomplished.

Now it's time to do what you've always done best: lose interest and walk
away. Like you did with your military service and the oil company and the
baseball team. It's time. Time to move on and try the next fantasy job. How
about cowboy or space man? Now I know what you're saying: there's so many
other things that you as President could involve yourself in.

Please don't. I know, I know. There's a lot left to do. There's a war with
Venezuela. Eliminating the sales tax on yachts, Turning the space program
over to the church. And Social Security to Fannie Mae. Giving embryos the
vote.

But, Sir, none of that is going to happen now. Why? Because you govern like
Billy Joel drives. You've performed so poorly I'm surprised that you
haven't given yourself a medal. You're a catastrophe that walks like a man.
Herbert Hoover was a shifty president, but even he never conceded an entire
city to rising water and snakes.

On your watch, we have lost almost all of our allies, the surplus, four
airliners, two trade centers, a piece of the Pentagon and the City of New
Orleans. Maybe you're just not lucky. I'm not saying you don't love this
country. I am just wondering how much worse it could be if you were on the
other side.

So, God speaks to you. What he is saying is: Take a hint
