Brown Pants Day
Republican leaders are all wearing their brown pants today. Not because they talked on the phone last night and coordinated their outfits like schoolgirls do, but because of this story on the wires today:
WASHINGTON, Jan 3 (Reuters) – Former lobbyist Jack Abramoff pleaded guilty to fraud charges on Tuesday and agreed to help U.S. prosecutors in a corruption probe that could involve several top Republican lawmakers, including former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay.
Bend over, boys. What goes around comes around and you’ve got some some serious buttfucking on the way.
My glee is tempered only by the sure and certain knowledge that the Democratic party will somehow fuck this gift up.
The 6th year of every 2-term president in recent history has been fraught with political trouble for the incumbents.
This will begin the sixth year for Bush. Enter Jack Abramoff, stage left.
…and now Tom Delay won’t seek the leadership position. Ripple effect perhaps???
Just as the rotten Rs begin to get their long overdue comeuppance, dumbass Canadians decide they might take a chance and vote in our version of Bush, Stephen Harper. A Christian fundamentalist who would have sent our boys and girls to Iraq (he’s since changed his mind, but not about Bush…he’s in love!). I feel a headache coming on.
God pity us. Everyone.
ps
Good to get caught up.
All the best in 2006, eh?
