The Sweet Smell of Success

Kudos to 'Gary from Phoenix' at BuzzFlash

"I'm getting sick and tired of my fellow Democrats saying that the presidency of George W. Bush is a failure. With the string of successes he's had, nothing could be further from the truth. Let me list a few:"

• He has successfully rid America of that troubling budget surplus and turned it into a $500 billion deficit.
  
  
• He has successfully helped America's trading partners have the highest trade surplus with us in America's history.
  
  
• He has successfully lowered the taxes for the richest Americans and corporations at the expense of 99% of the American population.
  
  
• He has successfully started another Viet Nam in Iraq after lying to the whole world.
  
  
• He has successfully pushed the price of gas up to the highest level ever here in America.
  
  
• He has successfully allowed American corporations to dramatically increase their pollution.
  
  
• He has successfully thrown about 10% of the population out of work.
  
  
• He has successfully allowed corporations to export our best middle-class jobs.
  
  
• He has successfully divided our country as never before.
  
  
• He has successfully driven our oldest allies away.
  
  
• He has successfully united the terrorists as never before (he said all along he was a uniter, not a divider).
  
  
• He has successfully broken his oath to uphold the constitution of the United States of America.
  
  
• He has successfully united Democrats (yay!) as they haven't been for years (I told you he was a uniter).
  
  
• He has successfully driven me out of the Republican party for the rest of my life.

"You know, with a string of successes like that, it's a wonder America is still standing. Vote a straight Democratic ticket in November; it's the only hope we have."
