The Unsung Triumph of George W. Bush

You know, George W. Bush gets a lot of guff these days about his "incompetence" as a war leader, with critics harping on and on about the bloodsoaked spiral of chaos, death, ruin and atrocity that continues to gush from the open wound that he has made of Iraq. But strangely enough, you never hear these nabobs of negativity talk about the indisputable success of the larger conflict that Bush has directed since his first day in office: the War on the Poor. From his smashing victory in the first Battle of the Elitist Tax Cuts to the scorching blitzkrieg triumph of the Bankruptcy Bill, Commander Bush has gone from strength to strength in his relentless crusade to grind the poor, the sick, the weak and the millions of hard-working people living on the margins into the dirt beneath his thousand-dollar boot-heel.

We here at Empire Burlesque pledge to redouble our efforts to bring President Bush's masterful leadership in the War on the Poor to the general public, breaking through the liberal media "filter" that won't tell the truth about the Leader's devastating prowess. So below are a few bulletins from the front-line (all courtesy of the indispensible Buzzflash), where you can see the Great Commander tearing through the rabble like a column of crack German Panzers.

2. damned straight

And of course the real genius is the vacuum effect of all those destroyed lives falling over the edge, that the middle class will slip off, too, along with their wealthy defenders, and everything will be left for the sociopathic fascists to have a big, old post-war party.

3. And he does it so well

with his hand on his heart and tears in his eyes.

4. Yes, * is a great success at destruction and..

.. making war on the poor and working people everywhere.

But he also harms the environment and quality of life everywhere as well.
