 Dallas
is an ugly little town. It's run mostly by oil barons and
real estate tycoons, the latter of which have been trying
to
build a toll road in the middle of our levee system for
years, a plan the Army Corps of Engineers admits is completely
daft. But the toll road would make these greedy bastards
an even bigger fortune
so their view is "So what if we break the levees?
We don't live there."
So it was here that George W. Bush, Fox News' favorite
war criminal, chose to roost after the most disastrous
presidency ever.
Yes, I know,
he was here before, in a whites-only community, from 89-94
but that was just to get his residency bone fides in
order to run
for governor.
Then
when
he
ran for
president he built a fake ranch in central Texas, a mirrored
funhouse he couldn't get away from fast enough once
he'd been airlifted out
of the White House in shame (His arrival in Washington
in 2001 was no better as his limousine was met
by a hail of eggs.) Now he's back in Dallas, barricaded
in an affluent, whites-only
enclave, at least until another opportunity to screw over
the public presents itself.
George Bush was never a real Texan. He was just an entitled
carpetbagger and now my city is stuck with the most useless
of his administration's
appendices... his conservative propaganda center, better
known as the George W. Bush Presidential Lie-Bury.
As an aside, you'd think Dick "Shotgun" Cheney would be
pissed that George got all the glory from this public
edifice considering Dick was the one pulling
the
strings all these years.
I guess Mr. "Go Fuck Yourself" will just have to content
himself with the millions of dollars he made as vice-prez
from all his Halliburton
stock.
As for the lie-bury itself, I've read a lot
about it lately, about how it's some quarter-billion-dollar
technical
marvel,
but
you know
what
you won't find in it?
As for Bush's speech during the opening ceremony it's
notable that the one word which most defined his presidency
never tripped lightly over his tongue...
Iraq.
A phony right to the end.
To be honest I'm not surprised that George's minions chose
Dallas in which to plunk down his lie-bury. After all,
Texas is well-known for its cancer research centers.
I'd briefly considered making occasional forays to the
facility to covertly slip full-color spreads from "Nuns-n-Buns"
into classified documents but I think I'll just donate
the $16 admission fee to the next homeless Iraq vet I
see.
--------------
Addendum: I would like to officially go on record
as stating that I in no way condone political assassination,
but at least
the death of John F. Kennedy resulted in the
passage of the Civil Rights Act. Unfortunately, the result
of this result was Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan and, ten
trillion dollars later, George W. Bush. Ugh.
The only real result from the assassination of George would
have been President Cheny. Double-ugh.
So, like I've said before, stop
shooting people.
