Our Brilliant El Presidente

This is especially for those not bright enough to recognize the enormous
danger of a biased press.


From: D. Brown

If George W. Bush had been the first President to need a
teleprompter installed to be able to get through a press conference, would
you have laughed and said this is more proof of how he inept he is on his
own and is really controlled by smarter men behind the scenes?


If George W. Bush had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to take
Laura Bush to a play in NYC, would you have approved?


If George W. Bush had reduced your retirement plan's holdings of GM
stock by 90% and given the unions a majority stake in GM, would you have
approved?


If George W. Bush had made a joke at the expense of the Special
Olympics, would you have approved?


If George W. Bush had given Gordon Brown a set of inexpensive and
incorrectly formatted DVDs, when Gordon Brown had given him a thoughtful and
historically significant gift, would you have approved?


If George W. Bush had given the Queen of England an iPod containing
videos of his speeches, would you have thought this embarrassingly
narcissistic and tacky?


If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi
Arabia
, would you have approved?


If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference to the
non-existent "Austrian language," would you have brushed it off as a minor
slip?


If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with
people who cannot seem to keep current on their income taxes, would you have
approved?


If George W. Bush had been so Spanish illiterate as to refer to
"Cinco de Cuatro" in front of the Mexican ambassador when it was the fourth
of May (Cuatro de Mayo), and continued to flub it when he tried again, would
you have winced in embarrassment?


If George W. Bush had mis-spelled the word advice would you have
hammered him for it for years like Dan Quayle and potatoe as proof of what a
dunce he is?


If George W. Bush had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to go plant a
single tree on Earth Day, would you have concluded he's a hypocrite?


If George W. Bush's administration had okayed Air Force One flying
low over millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown Manhattan
causing widespread Panic, would you have wondered whether they actually get
what happened on 9-11?


If George W. Bush had failed to send relief aid to flood victims
throughout the Midwest with more people killed or made homeless than in New
Orleans , would you want it made into a major ongoing political issue with
claims of racism and incompetence?


If George W. Bush had ordered the firing of the CEO of a major
corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so, would
you have approved?


If George W. Bush had proposed to double the national debt, which
had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year, would you have
approved?


If George W. Bush had then proposed to double the debt again within
10 years, would you have approved?


So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so
brilliant and impressive? Can't think of anything? Don't worry. He's done
all this in 8 months -- so you'll have three years and four months to come
up with an answer.
