The idea of Americans actually electing Jeb Bush in 2008 or 2012 (apropos considering the mayan long count rolls over in that year) is preposterous. In my darker thoughts, I am reminded of 2 Chronicles 10:14 and shudder that Americans may the same thing (okay paraphrased) out of Jeb’s mouth should he be elected to office.
I can only hope that GWB’s lack of action and executive ennui would only serve to undermine any further attempts by the Bush family to achieve any high office in the Republic.
Of course the conspiracy nut part of me, which is all of me, thinks that Bush was Baron Harkonnen, GWB is Rabban and Jeb is being set up to be Feyd Rautha.
“Rabban, I place you in charge of Arrakis. It’s yours to squeeze, as I promised. I want you to squeeze and squeeze and squeeze. Give me spice! Drive them into utter submission. You must not show the slightest pity or mercy as only you can. Never stop! Go! Show no mercy!”
The Baron turns to Feyd with adoration. “And when we’ve crushed these people enough I’ll send in you Feyd they’ll cheer you as a rescuer, lovely Feyd, really a lovely boy.”
Of course s/Arrakis/America and s/spice/oil or money
Feel free to ignore or pit.
