Fun with Politics (87)

Bitter a. 1 Sharp to the taste  2 sorrowful, painful, resentful, etc. 3 harsh

Can one single word in the English language change the race? Time will tell. Right now, the ‘bitter’ debate rages on, because we’ve temporarily forgotten there are more important things to talk about. Meanwhile, I don’t hear anyone attacking Obama on his actual politics. Is that a good sign, or not? 

Maybe Michelle Obama provided her husband with the “Colbert Bump”.  On the other hand, Spitzer had the CB, and in the end, it would have been better if he had never been elected.

 

Bush, while addressing climate change: “When I took office, seven years ago, we had a problem.”

Yes we did, George. In fact, the problem is still here. It’s you. You should have never been President. Future generations will demand an explanation of why we ever allowed you into the White House. “Why?” they’ll ask, with that accusing tone in their voice that only those with hindsight can afford. “You might as well have elected Mickey Mouse.”

And they’ll be right.

 

Let’s hope we don’t make the same mistake a second…I mean, a third time.
