Dear B.O.,  
While you’re getting drawn and quartered because you can’t solve the problems I left you, I’ll be out enjoying all the money Dick and I made in those deals with big business.

Welcome to your new job as head collaborator of the Earth Covert Occupation government. I bet you didn’t know any more than I did when I took over, you poor fool. If one hasn’t been assigned to yet, you’ll be assigned a Lizard overseer; mine was Cheney. And your IQ will take a drop like mine did after they scooped out all those brains to stick the implants in. Sorry.

Bah, I’m sick to death of this meme. Show me any evidence at all that Bush is especially vulnerable to spelling mistakes, to the point where could not compose a letter in standard orthography.
