Ten Reasons Why Conservatives Love George W. Bush

Article by
Journalist

Read comments (6)
10.   Great Articulation. During his press conferences I've yet to hear  

the president mispronounce a word or desecrate the English  language. Moreover,

I've never heard him utter anything of a moronic nature.  Well, except for the

time when he said "I know how hard it is for you to put food on your family."

 And let's not forget  he also stated, "I am honored to shake the hand of a

brave Iraqi citizen who had his hand cut off  by Saddam Hussein."  On second

thought,  it's clear that we have to deviate from the  articulate angle. What a

pity!

9.  He is so charismatic.  Whenever  I see the president,  visions of  Howdy

Doody spring to mind. For those 30 and under, Howdy Doody is the puppet  from

a  1950s children's  TV show. And just like  Howdy, Bush too  has an

exaggerated smile. Another similarity the two share is  that they're  both stiff as

a board.   Which explains why the president's decision to invade  Iraq was  

equivalent  to that of  a  puppet on a string.

8.  His patriotism. Unlike many  young men who opted not to go to Vietnam,

Bush served his country by enrolling in the National Guard. And as soon as

those military  records are found, just like the weapons of mass destruction he

adamantly   refers to,  everyone will appreciate this man's  love  for  his

country. What a man, What a man!

7.  He always tells the truth. That's right, our president is so honest you

can believe everything he says and then some. And for anyone who disagrees with

him, they're depicted as  "lip scrunching, jaw-jerking, anti-patriotic

liberals."  Case in point:  If   Bush says John Kerry  is too progressive to be

elected president-- it's probably true. After all this is the man who told us

umpteenth times that  Saddam Hussein has  ties  to Al-Qaeda.  And on that note I

can honestly  say, Dubya  gives new  meaning  to  the phrase TALKING LOUD AND

SAYING ABSOLUTELY  NOTHING.

6. His sense of  humor.  For instance, whenever the president comes on my TV  

screen I automatically  burst into laughter. Yeah, that silly grin and  

lumbering walk  gets me every time. Perhaps if he stopped flashing  that bogus  

smile  the laughter would stop. Or perhaps not.

5. His Moral Fiber.  Oh man what a saint. Besides doing a "little  drinking"

in  his  youth,  this guy is so morally pure I want to tell the whole world.  

I bet you won't catch an intern kissing this president  Besides, he's too busy

extolling   his role   as  the  "war president."  Ah,  why can't we all be

this perfect?

4. His intelligence.  Honestly, have  we ever had a commander-in-chief  who  

was  so  smart? Hey,  can you spell  dummylicious? pronounced dum-e-lish-ous.  

Don't worry  he can't either.

3.  Compassion.  He has it in droves, especially when targeting special  

interest groups and organizations. For example, lauding the immorality of same

sex marriage to secure his conservative voter base. That's right George, when  

your  administration fails to  scare everyone  with its vague terrorist

threat  alerts, the next step is to  play the family values card.  The president

is probably thinking, if  I can't scare the American people into re-electing

me by raising the terrorist alert when it suits me, I will remind them about

those men and women who get a thrill out of drilling each  other instead  of  

the opposite sex. We humorists  call such behavior,  the incorrigible jabs  of a

real  GIRLIE MAN.  

2.  Honesty:  Oh how can I say it? Let me count the ways. I would love to but

time doesn't permit me to engage in such fantasies.

1.  Major   Insomnia  Reliever: Within seconds after seeing or  hearing the

president, I quickly  fall asleep.  So who needs over the counter sleep aids

when George W. Bush  is available?   According to sources who requested

anonymity, the president is so boring, he would make a dead man rise from his grave.  

ZZZZZZZZZZZZ! And there you have it, 10 reasons why conservatives  love George

W. Bush. And if you can't figure out the logic behind  this commentary you

are truly an admirer. So,  what does that say about you?

Loved reading this -- well, since I got to edit it, I saw it first, and it made me fall off my chair laughing. Being anti-Bush, I found it right up my alley!










Lakshmi says on 2004-09-19 11:30:22 about Dale›s comment
Thanks Dale, I am glad someone responded. I don't mean to put anyone down for being inarticulate or not quick on their feet (which Mr. Bush himself admitted to being). Just that he has to show more of himself to the public, and be able to answer questions in the media for the sake of accountability (and admit it if he doesn›t have an answer--if only more people would do that!). Therefore he must speak his own voice as much as possible.

It was not that he ignored what everyone told him, rather, that by all accounts, he chose to listen to some people (the neocons) and ignore others (Powell, Gen. Shineki, etc.). It is no virtue to be steadfast when you have the power to do so. A good leader must be able to go against the grain if he must *and* move the world with him.










Dale says on 2004-09-19 08:28:13 about Lakshmi
I don't think ANY president in recent history (re: since the advent of or common usage of radio, tv, etc) has written their own speeches. Anyway, I am pretty sure when he's talking about Laura, his daughters, etc, those are his observations, Lakshmi. :)

Frankly, someone can be a good leader and still be inarticulate on paper. If I'm looking for something good to read, I have novels. If I want something good to listen to, I have music or NPR. If I want a president who isn't afraid to do something EVERYONE else tells him not to do, I've got the right leader in Bush. Someone famous said it, and I don't remember who: I'm with the minority because they are not afraid of going against the grain.

That's the reason we know Bush has balls and moral conviction. Even though the world is shaking their finger, he is steadfast.










Lakshmi says on 2004-09-18 02:20:31 about Peggy Butler's article
That's right. And another thing, why doesn't he write his own speeches? You can have it vetted by speech writers, but you gotta have some of your own stuf in there!!

Listening to Bush speeches, I am reminded of a kid reciting something he doesn't understand.

I think all presidents should be required to do that. Otherwise we can all rightly suspect that Bush *is* indeed a puppet!

I was employed nine years at a Florida-based newspaper, where I was required to write about every topic under the sun.

I am a fun person who revels in the knowledge that everyday is an opportunity to bring about change.



When art becomes genderless
Whether we want to admit it or not, even now, in year 2012, there are still big gender biases in some fields of life. While it's generally understandable that men should do more heavy lifting than women and knitting fits a bit better for the women (even though I am aware even here there are many people who want to disagree), art is one of those things where our gender really should not play any significant role at all. And within the past decade things have started to change even on this front and even on the more conservative arenas such as Bukowskis - the top Nordic auction house.
