Random musings of today.

The recent US presicents in a nutshell:

Johnson: Confused Rome with Washington but had a Texas sized change of heart and quit.

Nixon: Visionary, but those who knew how to feed his paranoia led him down the dark side.

Carter: Saw the problems, addressed them head on on without political prowess and was hated for the truth.

Reagan: A cross between McCarthy and the absent minded professor Fred McMurry

HGWRH Bush, More Saxon than Anglo, he played by WWII covert rules toward a new world order. We read his lips and they still seemed wimpy. He did however read the essay; The Art of War.

Clinton: Taught America the meaning of what jizz is. Gave the Free Market super capitalists an inch that soon turned into a parsec.

G W Bush: Swaggering kid who was going to outdo his wimpy dad. Did not even read the cliff note version of 'The Art of War'.
While claiming to be a decider he actually outsourced his outsourcing.

Barak Obama: Almost Vulcan in his emotional control. Performs a death defying balancing act in a very polarized and financially raped America.
