How Many Different Ways Can I Say "I Told You So" ??

All right! The press has finally caught on that Bush is a completely unlikeable moron, and they now report that the GOP is concerned that his failing presidency will hurt the whole party. Well, that and damage the United States of America. But, they're not so concerned with the latter as the former. See, the US of A can go down the shitter, for all they care, as long as someone from the GOP gets to be King Turd of Shit Mountain.

There are lots of problems with this story only coming up right now. For one, this would have been the story a full four years ago, pre-September 11th, except that the media then still thought it was cute to follow Georgie around and tell the public (for whom the media has nothing but utter contempt) what a neat guy he is and, yeah, he's really dumb but he means well. Even after that horseshit was washed off by the blood of 3,000 Americans on 9/11, the media continued to ignore Bush's outrageous behavior and dumbfoundingly bad policy decisions.

Now, the press wants you to know that the President is in a bad spot. Welcome to the party, stupid. Or, I suppose more accurately, the press wants you to know that it knows what you already know. See, all the media has been doing for the last five years is reporting what it wants you to think. That's right: ABC News manufactures consciousness--it decides what you should be thinking. Well, now that millions of people have run screaming from Big Media as if it were a shit-cannon launching cholera-infected feces, well NOW the press wants you to know that it has tapped back into reality and is on the same page as you.

No thanks, bitches. Your job, if you didn't know, is to go find news, investigate, and report it. Not to tell us what to think and say; also not to tell us what we already know. Your sole duty to the public is to tell it what it doesn't know, and to do so in a way that protects the public interest. In other words, the media is supposed to help us, not lecture us, or mislead us, or belittle us. And, for about five fucking years, I've been feeling pretty goddamn insulted by the way the press has been talking to me. When Bush stumbles, I don't call it a "victory march." When he misspeaks, I don't call it "colorful" or "creative." When he gets 1700 kids killed because he doesn't feel like telling the truth, I don't call it "decisive leadership." The media does.

Other interesting angles to the "revelation" (I wouldn't call it that, either) that Bush is a fucking asshole and a liability to the entire planet?

How about the hordes of shitsucking voters who went dutifully to the polls and affirmed that they like being lied to, humiliated, and murdered? Well, all I can say, besides "I told you so, you fucking douchebag idiots" is that I hope Bush gets you killed before he does me, so I can see your terrified faces as you get your ticket to Hell punched.

And for all you Democrats, or worse, Green Party/did not vote/threw your vote away assholes: tell me again that Kerry would have been exactly the same as Bush. Go ahead. I dare you to say it. Your lazy asses couldn't be bothered to do any work before the election, you run and hide whenever there's a real fight to be had, you sit around and jerk off over the fucking fantasy utopia that Ralph Nader or some other dicksucker promised you, and then you scurry back into the woodwork after the election, unwilling and unable to see that you, just as much as anyone, have fucked the entire nation over.
