There are jackasses and then there are jackasses

The Dope = jackass

I suppose there are bigger jackasses in the world than the Dope, but they do not seem intent on wrecking my life. Donald Trump = jackass. Ask Rosie. On second thought maybe Trump is OK. Rosie is the jackass. Mike Tyson = jackass. Keith Olbermann = super jackass. Brittany Spears, Rick Sanchez, Mark McGuire's little brother, Tiger Woods, ,Tiger's 100 or so girl friends and a rather endless list of others all = jackass. But none of them are purposefully trying to destroy the country.

67% of Americans have rejected the jackass' Dope-a-care proposal but the jackass insists on continuing. This is the same jackass who admitted that his best and perhaps only qualification for being president was running a campaign for president. Talk about a self-licking ice cream cone. 52% of Americans fixated on hope and change, which has proven to be nothing more than smoke and mirrors, have saddled the country with this moron and we're not even half way through Sir Dopes a Lot's term.

God help us.

Charlie Rangle = crook

The Griffin noted that it's too bad about ol' Charlie. He liked Charlie - though not his policies or politics. I liked Charlie as well. A Korean War Vet and no holds barred straight shooter of a pol. I wish the Republicans had a couple. Charlie, it seems to me is the perfect case for term limits. He's nice guy or as the Griffin put it, "would make a pretty good neighbor." He goes to congress in 1971 a good descent man and in 2010 emerges a crook. Term limits would be practical not so much to save us from people like Charlie, but rather to save people like Charlie from themselves.

Tom Friedman = ChiCom loving stooge

Not too long ago Tom wrote a column lamenting the fact that America's messy democracy kept us from getting the things we needed to get done - done. Cumbersome democracy screwed up Kyoto and 100,000 other AlGore initiatives to save the planet like converting every American citizen not beautiful enough for the Lib jet-set into vegetarian mud farmers who live in carbon neutral mud huts. Tom explains, were we more like China, we could get these things done with a snap of the Dope's fingers.

Today Tom wonders why we can't be more like China when it comes to "Deferred Gratification." Using LAX as an example, according to Tom, we are letting things go and deferring maintenance to live for the moment. The much, much, much smarter ChiComs rely heavily on prison labor which there is no shortage of to improved their infrastructure, fore go momentary pleasures - like freedom - to keep things spic and span. You just have to know, were it 1939, Tom would be asking why we can't be more Germany and Italy? Sure those countries are led by despotic madmen, but damn it the trains run on time. Idiot.
