The Texas Hillbilly
(sung to the tune of The Beverly Hillbillies Theme Song)
Come and listen to my story 'bout a boy name Bush.
His IQ was zero and his head was up his tush.
He drank like a fish while he drove all about.
But that didn't matter 'cuz his daddy bailed him out.
DUI, that is. Criminal record. Cover-up.
Well, the first thing you know little Georgie goes to Yale.
He can't spell his name but they never let him fail.
He spends all his time hangin' out with student folk.
And that's when he learns how to snort a line of coke.
Blow, that is. White gold. Nose candy.
The next thing you know there's a war in Vietnam.
Kin folks say, "George, stay at home with Mom."
Let the common people get maimed and scarred.
We'll buy you a spot in the Texas Air Guard.
Cushy, that is. Country clubs. Nose candy.
Twenty years later George gets a little bored.
He trades in the booze, says that Jesus is his Lord.
He said, "Now the White House is the place I wanna be."
So he called his daddy's friends and they called the GOP.
Gun owners, that is. Falwell. Jesse Helms.
Come November 7, the election ran late.
Kin folks said "Jeb, give the boy your state!"
"Don't let those colored folks get into the polls."
So they put up barricades so they couldn't punch their holes.
Chads, that is. Duval County. Miami-Dade.
Before the votes were counted five Supremes stepped in.
Told all the voters "Hey, we want George to win."
"Stop counting votes!" was their solemn invocation.
And that's how George finally got his coronation.
Rigged, that is. Illegitimate. No moral authority.
Y'all come vote now. Ya hear?
FWIW, Bush opened his mouth yesterday and today the markets are selling off.
Just for the record!!!
(I'm not going to include any opinions in this post about what a moron I think Bush is, or how he looks like a monkey that escaped from a research lab, or how Dick Cheney is the antichrist).
I'm just writing this post FOR THE RECORD so that we can look back years from now and see that following the 2003 State Of The Union Address by W, the markets sold off (pretty) sharply the next day.
Peace!

You know, it's funny. I call it like it is - a selloff, and all the pro-Bush people are like "it's not that bad...it's not a real selloff."
Reminds me of my relatives whenever I mention making money as a daytrader. Normally they say that it's stupid gambling, but whenever I remind them that I consistently make money they're like "well, you're a nimble trader. It's easy to make money when you jump in and out."
What's my point, you ask?
My point is this: Some people will never be able to face reality for what it is - I mean, Reagan got re-elected, despite being dumber than the average actor - need I say more??
