Today's cartoon was inspired by the
endless animated expressions of Bush. Bush seems to have as much control
over his facial expressions as he does over which words leave his mouth.

"For days and decades, I dreamt of a long, winding, tree-lined road whisking
me through manicured, sprawling lawns. A gentle car floating along as it
delivers me in glittering elegance to the gilded doors of the Fourth
Estate."
- This is my favorite passage from "Ode to a Mercenary Journalist"

My Urge to Merge
Has there ever been a more thrilling time to be young and
fascist? I am now twenty-nine years old, as I have been ever since the fall of
the Berlin Wall. During my privileged yet embittered life, I have never before
witnessed such a glorious period as we enjoy today. Never-ending war. Severe
restrictions of civil liberties. Quaking journalists afraid to dissent from the
conservative party line. Economic hardship on the parasitic lower classes.
Federal courts packed with devotees of Richard Wagner music. An atmosphere of
abject terror, not to mention acid rain. It all makes me feel as clean and fresh
as a Summer's Eve. click here for more
"A lot of people are upset with the
French right now. A man in New Jersey was in the news for buying a $1,000 bottle
of champagne and then dumping it in the toilet. The man's dog supports his
position." —Conan O'Brien
This following poem is composed entirely of actual quotes from
George W. Bush. It was compiled and arranged by Washington Post writer Richard
Thompson.
Make the Pie Higher
I think we all agree, the past is over.
This is still a dangerous world.
It's a world of madmen
And uncertainty
And potential mental losses.
Rarely is the question asked
Is our children learning?
Will the highways of the internet
Become more few?
How many hands have I shaked?
They misunderestimate me.
I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity.
I know that the human being and the fish
Can coexist.
Families is where our nation finds hope
Where our wings take dream.
Put food on your family!
Knock down the tollbooth!
Vulcanize society!
Make the pie higher!
Make the pie higher!
No wonder the world is angry with Bush.
He's a pitbull with a pedigree pontificating .
