The Worst President in 100 Years



I thought about what a good caption for this picture might be...

"Gee... I wonder what I'd look like with a Mexican Wrestling Mask on?"

George Bush’s incompetence has driven America’s debt load into the stratosphere. Each American’s personal share of the national debt is now in excess of 30,000 dollars. That’s insane!

In addition to the staggering debt load, America will need 43 Trillion dollars to meet its obligations for Medicare and social security. Add a defense budget (with all branches… including The Marines, Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, FBI, CIA, NSA, Homeland Security, FEMA, and INS…) and spending on the civil service and that could escalate well into the high 70’s.

I thought that Republican’s were strong proponents of small government and reduced spending? Bush is clearly the oxymoron to this conservative agenda. Never has this been more apparent than in the last month. Neo Cons are jumping from this ship in record numbers. It seems the party sees baby Bush as a liability. Is there any wonder why?

Hs failures are numerous. His tax cuts failed to ignite the economy. There are 5 million more people living below the poverty line than under the Clinton presidency. In addition, there’s a lower percentage of working age Americans that are employed, (or who are under employed…) and the manufacturing sector has been all but gutted.

New economy jobs are pouring out of the country and heading towards Asia with near reckless abandon. Not what I’d call a stellar economic record. Even Ronald Reagan’s Voodoo economics concept worked better. (And that was disgraceful!!!)

Then there’s the failure to achieve any real or concrete objective in Iraq. Saddam’s gone, and that’s great, but in the occupation’s wake, a civil war looms in the distance. More than two thousand soldiers have died, and end of the engagement is nowhere to be seen. It’s been three years since the shock and awe, and now it looks more like “Aw Shucks…”

Afghanistan isn’t much better, and Osama is still on the loose. Wasn’t he the one that America was supposed to be looking for? Isn’t he the terrorist that fucked with the Good ole U. S of A? (And just what exactly did he have in common with Iraq?)

Then there’s the brewing nuclear feud with Iran… During a recent press conference, Bush indicated, “All options were on the table!” But with North Korea, he just pussyfooted about. I guess all cranky America hating dictators are not made the same.

Let’s not forget the huge fuck up in dealing with the aftermath of Katrina. Not only has Bush managed to polarize the entire globe, but also now he set back race relations in America a couple of decades. (It was on shaky ground to begin with…)

Throw in some illegal spying on everyday Americans, the absence of WMD’s, fucking Canadians out of 5 billion dollars, and passing legislation that restricts individual freedoms and the fire under his but is stoked just a little higher.

But then again it must be hard when criminals like Scooter Libby, and Karl Rove surround you on a daily basis, and I’m sure Dick (the Shotgun wielding lunatic) and Donald (the freaky Nazi) don’t help much either.

But not to worry America... Bush can't be President forever...

Oh Great Marcus, Please tell us how you would fix all this if you got the chance. If by some freak chance you became the President of the United States of America tomorrow what would you do?

PS - you left out the part about the new law which alienates all of their illegal aliens, who also happen to be a large part of their work force.
