Published May 19, 2008 05:28 pm - THE PEOPLE SPEAK: Cowboy president lacks real backbone One of the funniest TV shows on Comedy Central is the animated “Lil’ Bush.” Focusing on lil’ George and his lil’ cronies, Condi, Cheney, Rummy and others, it’s both hilarious and infuriating because you have to remind yourself that this lil’ fascist has really done all these things to America.
So here’s a look back at our nation’s first-ever special-needs president. After a huge win during the 2000 primaries, Bush and Laura were basking in the cheers of their supporters when without warning a huge bang was heard. What turned out to be a balloon bursting made Bush believe it was a gunshot, so much so that this snivelling little coward was about to duck behind his wife. Blinking his eyes in fear, he realized he was safe and somehow found the backbone to stand up straight. His friend, former Mexican president Vicente Fox, once referred to him as a “windshield cowboy,” meaning he looked good behind the wheel but that’s about it. As Fox was showing one of his prize horses to Bush, this war president appeared reluctant and fearful around the animal. You see, Laura wasn’t there to hide behind. Earlier this year Bush told troops in Afghanistan that he was “a little envious” of them and that “It must be exciting for you ... in some ways romantic, in some ways, you know, confronting danger.” Yeah, I guess it is romantic when your daddy makes sure you end up in the “champaign division” of the Texas Air National Guard, your vice president gets five deferments during Vietnam, and you invade the wrong country while your friends in big oil and Wall Street rob America completely blind. We’re all feelin’ the love. That’s just the tip of the melting iceberg. I’m hoping to one day see an animated series called “Lil’ Cons,” where an ex-president and his lil’ neo-con fascists pay for their treasonous acts against the United States. Now that would be hilarious. Larry Parsons Warner
