We would all be so much better off if the only mark that the slob Bill Clinton had deposited on the history of the world was the famous semen-stain on Monica Lewinski's blue dress.
But unfortunately he didn't spend his whole Presidency getting blow-jobs from interns, and somehow found time to sign the Telecom Act of 1996 into law, enabling an unprecedented concentration of media into a few giant corporations, and likewise with the Commodity Futures Modernization Act and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, a combination which almost totally deregulated banking and consequently destroyed the American economy.
We would all be so much better off if the sadistic little punk George W. Bush had never been born, much less promoted on the basis of nothing but his name through oil companies and baseball teams and a governorship all the way to the White House, thanks largely to abject media treatment by networks and newspapers that are nothing but the playthings of billionaires. So Sumner Redstone bitch-slapped Dan Rather for finally exposing Bush as a nasty little coward who never stopped cheering for the same war that he ran away from himself, and that gave us four more years of torture, crazy wars, and oceans of blood sucked out of the national economy to feed a few parasites like Sumner Redstone.
After those two shining examples of American democracy in action, now we get the freak Barack Obama, a sociopathic con-man created out of nothing by sub-prime banking and already busy accelerating the biggest payoff in the history of the world for his billionaire creators, advised by none other than the same Larry Summers who pushed the Commodity Futures Modernization Act through Congress for Bill Clinton.
So the torch has been passed from a slob to a punk to a freak, and all that's left for the rest of us to do is hee-haw our amazement while Obama pays off the Clintons with the Department of State and pardons Bush/Cheney, even before the formality of his splendiferous inauguration.
