George The Vulgar

Simple, vulgar George Bush's foreign policy is "Kill, kill, kill" and his domestic policy is "Drill, drill, drill". Those are the two primary missions of our would be emperor and chimp-in-chief. The goals were pointed out by two of the most powerful lobbys in our country---the military- industrial- complex and the fossil fuel industry respectively. And chimpy is the perfect messanger. He doesn't ask questions because he doesn't know what questions to ask. And this trait dovetails perfectly with the requirement to continue policies inspite of their real world failures.

Chimpy just landed in Rome. He will be visting Pope Benedict XVI. The Pope is the heir to the what's left of the Roman Empire. Chimpys Air Force One mentally juxtaposed to Vatican City tells a tale. The Roman Empire is now an enclave and a would-be emporer's transportation is more a sore eyeful like some graffitti on an ancient architectural wonder. Whatever the excesses and problems with the Roman's were -and there were many- the Romans did have a rich culture and style. That's more than can be said about chimpy and the Pope.
