Hurricane George: Nation Destroyer

Newsflash: Hurricane Central has just released a news bulletin that has added a new category to describe the devastating impact of Hurricane George. Up until now the most powerful hurricane was category 5, catastrophic.

However, category 5 storms only destroy geographic areas, whereas category 6 storms, like Hurricane George, can devastate the entire infrastructure of a major industrialized nation.

This is accomplished though ignoring and/or contradicting all of the established and recognized wisdom of experts -- such as scientists, meterologists, physicians, members of the intelligence community, policy makers, military strategists, etc. -- in favor starting illegal wars to enrich yourself and your friends, dismantling all environmental protections also to enrich yourself and your fellow corporate mobster pals, dismantling public education, abridging civil liberaties on behalf of so-called homeland security, rigging elections, winning public office by smearing your opponents, giving great big fat tax breaks to the wealthiest one percent, bankrupting the government, allowing corporate mobsters like Halliburton to plunder the national treasury, pretending myths like creationism are facts and facts like global warming are myths, underfunding and/or eliminating all social services, sending young men and women to fight, kill, and die on foreign soil for no reason, and going on two-hour bike rides every day to have fun and look fit and bronzed while the rest of the nation goes to hell in a hand cart.

Category 6 storms are formed when diva sockpuppets like George W. Bush come under the influence of evil suckcurrents like Karl Rove. Hurricane George, with a death toll of more than 1800, was first sighted off the coast of Florida in fall 2000, where it came on-shore to obstruct fair elections by disenfranchising citizens and blocking vote counts. This lethal, slow-moving storm has inched its way across the nation with cataclysmic and devastating long-term effects that are already being felt all over the globe. The after-effects of Hurricane George will no doubt be felt for the greater part of the twenty-first century. There is no way to estimate such astronomical damage and cost to life in a dollar amount.
