Siamese twins
Dear George,

You are the worst president of my lifetime, and probably of this country's
history. You led us into war under false pretenses. You have taken us from a
record budget surplus to a record deficit. Your policies have cost us jobs.
Access to health-care has not improved under your administration, and
probably worsened. You have pandered to the elite, the super-wealthy, and
the large corporations. You have turned your back on the environmental
standards and treaties. You have offered up give-aways to the energy and
timber industries with Orwellian names like "Clear Skies" and "Healthy
Forests." You have ham-strung AIDS work around the world by tying funding to
the promotion of abstinence at the exclusion of condom distribution. You
have played the politics of divisiveness, using the constitution as a wedge.
I could go on and on, but you know what you have done. And so do we.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of people who seem to be asleep at the wheel.


America is like a pair of Siamese twins, where one of the twins has a
genetic defect resulting in low IQ and a mean disposition. We can't kill our
mongoloid brother, or we kill ourselves. There was the opportunity for
separation, back in the 1800's, and perhaps, we should have taken it, but
its too late now. So, we are doomed to life with an idiot appendage dragging
around next to us, picking fights, drooling and spouting biblical passages.
In the end, our idiot brother will be our undoing. We are stuck.

So, what is the answer? Let the healing begin? No, I don't think so. This is
war. But you already knew that also.

I hope you choke on a pretzel, you pampered, inbred, dimwit.

A little harsh, I agree, but you can understand how he feels.

As for Gardner, I feel sorry for him. I don't trust his recollections, though. But again this thread is about the current administration.
