3 Days and Counting


GW Bush has been serving as president of the USA for almost 8 years. Only 3 more days remain of his second term and he's exiting the White House as the least popular president in history. Only 23% of Americans approve of his leadership and even worse only 16% consider the USA is heading in the right direction. 9/11, the Wars on Terrorism, the suspension of habeus corpus, Katrina, torture, the collapse of the stock market, and a trillion dollar per annum debt are only a few of his very low points.

Being a fellow C-grade student in college I tried to find something positive in his long reign. I came up with nothing. Nothing at all. But there has to be something.

The fall of Saddam?

Saddam would have abdicated for a billion dollar pay-off. GW said, "We don't do buy offs."

The collapse of the Taliban in Afghanistan

The 2001 defeat came only because the embattled country was on the verge of starvation and that victory was achieved by the Northern Coalition and not US Troops.

The Tax Cut?

That money went up to the rich and never came back down.

In fact it disappeared without a trace.

Trillions of dollars.

Poof.

So let's raise a glass for the end of the horror.

GW Fucking Bush.

Adios motherfucker.
