DID BUSH TEACH THIS ONE TO BLAIR OR DID BLAIR TEACH IT TO BUSH? OR DOES IT JUST COME NATURAL TO THESE KINDS OF PEOPLE?

>


There was a story in circulation that right after James Baker had secured Florida and the Supreme Court for Bush in 2000, he went right to London and made it perfectly clear to Bill Clinton's closest foreign ally-- and if you'll think back that twosome really did look like a natural fit-- why he was now, like it or not, on the Bush Team. Whether it was promises or threats, it seems to have worked out. Although it never really does seem all that natural. Mags makes a go at explaining it-- as well as the latest bad habit Blair seems to have picked up from the Republicans.

TWEEDLE-DEE AND TWEEDLE-DIM
-Mags

George and Tony have shared so much over the years. They both conspired together to find grounds for invading Iraq. And, when it came right down to it, they finally gave the marching orders for that travesty on the basis of faulty intelligence… theirs.

Yes, Tweedle-dee and Tweedle-dim (yes, I misspelled that on purpose) are laughably similar. They both appear to be caricatures of real people. I find myself continually wondering if any fiction writer could have written these guys if they were not already here and on display. Who would have thought this scenario believable enough for a novel?

It is entertaining to hear George’s litany of lies and blunders repeated in a British accent. Embarrassing, I would imagine for the British. Even funnier is George’s stammering to the aid of Blair in joint press conferences.

The Bobbsey Twins shared a podium to announce that mistakes had been made in Iraq… no kidding. It may not be remembered, but Tony helped excuse George’s ducking Kyoto by diverting attention to China (all the while the US corporations supporting Mr. Bush continue to abandon American and Americans by worshipping at the Chinese altar of cheap wages and China’s willingness to subjugate workers). And, speaking of subjugation, don’t forget that British troops were also charged with abusing Iraqis, the very people they were liberating, or fighting, or whatever the war excuse du jour happens to be. Not to be outdone, they too had their Abu Ghraib moment.

We suspect Tony is the brighter of the two. But, let’s be honest: well-mannered and even polished, yes, he can’t really be all that bright. I've got to hand it to him for not falling for George’s disguise the plane to trick Saddam brain fart. But, he has marched his political party in lock step with George the Dimmer right into the same abyss of unpopularity.

These guys fudge and when they cannot fudge, they gag. They both threaten the press and members of their governments with charges of treason in order to keep their own incompetence under wraps. But, stupidity in these proportions is difficult to hide.

Both men have lost the best and brightest within their administrations through resignations. Competent and honest people can only stand the dissonance for so long. At least that is my theory. Plus, factor in the resignations happening because, well… some of those are the guys who have been or are soon to be indicted.

That brings me to the reason I even took the time to comment on the Poodle and Chimpy today. As a rule, that comic ship has sailed. However, it appears today that Lord Levy has been arrested. Who is Lord Levy? He is Blair’s and the Labor Paty's top fundraiser. Seems there is an investigation into charges that Tony and his team are influence peddling in the UK. You know, granting positions in the government and peerages for monetary support and "loans." No, surely NOT! Tony, Tony, Tony, say it isn’t true!

This, my friends is a knee slapper if I ever saw one. I mean come on, the jokes just keep on coming with these two. Really, these two men are leading what is left of the free world? Please, please who is writing this farce? Come out come out wherever you are!

Of course this is not a joke, but it cannot be real life either can it? People are dying so that these two men can save face and milk their political fortunes daily. They rob their nation’s peoples and whoever else they can, slipping their slimy fingers into the purses and pockets of the poor, the backward, and the weak. They do it for their own gain and what is worse, people help them do it.

Look Tony and George really ought to wander throughout history hand in hand, BFF (best friends forever). I say put ‘em in the same cell right after trying them for fraud and war crimes and anything else we can think of, right after they are run out of DC and London on rails, BFTTE (best friends to the end). It cannot be soon enough for me. Hey, what a great twin photo op!
