A New Arab Hero Emerges
The highlight of my day, by far, and maybe even year. President George Bush’s surprise trip to Iraq had one eventful happening, the perfect act of Arab dissent against the Bush administration. During his press conference with Al-Maliki, an Iraqi journalist — Muntadar al-Zeidi, a correspondent for Al-Baghdadiya television — got up, yelled “this is [...]
So McCain WAS the Candidate of Change
Secretary of Defense Gates is comforted by his meetings with President-elect Barack Obama. They are on the same page, the New York Times reports. I, for one, am not even in the same book, or even library. I’m outside protesting it. After seeing the Obama cabinet take shape — and the orgasmic reviews coming from [...]
Majority of America Remains Unfucked
The Majority of America has not been fucked by policies and actions of the Bush administration, analysts said on Monday. “At least 52 percent America’s institutions, natural resources, social programs, and infrastructure projects remain sound after nearly eight years of the Bush administration,” cheerfully declared David Smith, political analyst at the American Enterprise Institute. [...]
Wu Tang Financial Latest Wall Street Giant To Collapse
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5s3SFcWh58] The Federal Reserve refused to extend any taxpayer-funded grants in its meeting last night to bail out Wu Tang Financial, the latest financial services giant to collapse as a result of the credit crunch caused by years of sub-prime mortgages and predatory lending.

When The Electorate Has The Memory Of A Fruit Fly

The Mish ’3aarif Model: Bush and Arab Leaders Should Follow the Perv
Pervez Musharraf, America’s little buddy in Pakistan, stepped down after internal legal and political pressures closed in on him. The impending impeachment targeted him for some crimes that should be quite familiar to Arab AND American readers: “imposing a state of emergency last November, sacking judges and other alleged crimes, including violation of the constitution [...]
The Presidential Butt-Slap
The stars of the U.S. Women’s Beach Volleyball team – Misty May-Treanor (um, behind front) and Kerri Walsh – are enjoying great success so far during the 2008 Olympic Games. Could it be, perhaps, thanks to Bush’s good luck butt-slap? (Sadly, the prez couldn’t even get that right) Seriously…the President of the United States attends [...]
Awkward Moments in China: Bush Kicks it with Women’s Volleyball
“smack that, all on the floor, smack that, give me some more, smack that, ’till you get sore, smack that, oooh.” Akon ft. Eminem – Smack That Below: Bush is sweating nervous about what to do with his right hand. [tarboush tip: Big Daddy Nads"]
The Surge (in bombs)
The dips at the end of the chart are because 2008 is only half way over. As you can see, the levels are more than half last year’s level. As Bush administration spin declares increasing success in Iraq, the Air Force is dropping more bombs. Afghanistan, where they claimed success long ago, is only progressively [...]
“Ah think Mr. Bush is an obstacle to peace, he he he”
Actually, the Syrian president said something more along this line “Frankly, we do not think that the current American administration is capable of making peace. It doesn’t have either the will or the vision and it only has a few months left.” But as he strikes that Bushie pose, I had to make a play [...]
