 Posted: Tue, Jul 10 2007, 10:25 pm Post subject: The Speech George W. Bush Should Give |
| |
| Quote: | Normally, I start these things out by saying "My Fellow
Americans." Not doing it this time. If the polls are any indication, I
don't know who more than half of you are any longer. I do know something
terrible has happened, and that you're really not "fellow Americans" any
longer.
I'll cut right to the chase here: I quit!!!
Now before anyone gets all in a lather about me quitting
to avoid impeachment, or to avoid prosecution or something, let me assure
you: there's been no breaking of laws or impeachable offenses in this
office.
The reason I'm quitting is simple: I'm fed up with you
people.
I'm fed up because you have no understanding of what's
really going on in the world. Or of what's going on in this once-great
nation of ours. And the majority of you are too damned lazy to do your
homework and figure it out.
Let's start local. You've been sold a bill of goods by
politicians and the news media. Polls show that the majority of you think
the economy is in the tank. And that's despite there being a record number
of homeowners including a record number of MINORITY homeowners. And, while
we're mentioning minorities, I'll point out that minority business
ownership is at an all-time high.
Our unemployment rate is as low as it ever was during the
Clinton Administration. I've mentioned all those things before, but it
doesn't seem to have sunk in.
Despite the shock of 9/11 to our economy, the stock market
has rebounded to record levels and more Americans than ever are
participating in these markets.
Meanwhile, all you can do is whine about gas prices, and
most of you are too stupid to realize that gas prices are high because
there's increased demand in other parts of the world, and because a small
handful of noisy idiots are more worried about polar bears and beachfront
property than economic security.
