George Bush
Ray Evans, an old friend, reminded me of what Hunter S. Thompson said of George Bush. It may be more pertinent now than when it was written:"Let's face it--the yo-yo president of the U.S.A. knows nothing. He is a dunce. He does what he is told to do--says what he is told to say--poses the way he is told to pose. He is a Fool.
This is never an easy thing for the voters of this country to accept.No. Nonsense. The president cannot be a Fool. Not at this moment in time--when the last living vestiges of the American Dream are on the line. This is not the time to have a bogus rich kid in charge of the White House. Which is, after all, our house. That is our headquarters--it is where the heart of America lives. So if the president lies and act giddy about other people's lives--if he wantonly and stupidly endorses mass murder as a logical plan to make sure that we are still Number One--he is a Jackass by definition--a loud and meaningless animal with no fundamental intelligence and no balls.To say that this goofy child president is looking more and more like Richard Nixon in the summer of 1974 would be a flagrant insult to Nixon.Whoops! Did I say that? Is it even vaguely possible that some New Age Republican whore-beast of a false president could actually make Richard Nixon look like a liberal?"

Don't ya just love it?
I dunno. This one stands out for me.
"a loud and meaningless animal with no fundamental intelligence and no balls."
Very descriptive of many in the political arena.
He reminds of the lines from MacBeth:
"It is a tale told by an idiot. Full of sound and fury. Signifying nothing."
Imagine the power of tens of thousands of other web sites being able to easily
