Even though **MacTech** had the same idea, I can’t help it:

The same thing he does every night…_ **TRY TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD!** _

_bThey’re zany, they’re Cheney and the Bush, Bush, Bush, Bush, Bush.b_

(Now that I think about it, a _Pinky and the Brain_-style parody of Bush and Cheney would be infinitely more entertaining that the travesty that is _Li’l_ “Try to forget I wrote that Mr. Sparkle episode” _Bush_.  
[/QUOTE]

Lil’ Bush was an incredibly dissapointing show, even to this Bush-hating registered Republican, maybe because i was mentally comparing it to the **2Dtv** Bush episodes…

He will issue signing statements for every piece of legislation that comes across his desk. They will all say, “Go fuck yourselves – President Dick Cheney”.

He will sign an executive order defining the 4th branch of government that the vice-president’s office occupies. Then he will classify it so highly that even the president cannot see it.
