So, I’m on the street shooting these demos where people are demanding that Emperor-Elect Timberlake “say something” about the Israeli rape of Gaza, as if with enough pressure – if you call sign-waving and delivering white roses “pressure” – he’ll suddenly have a Eureka Moment and go on TV and “do the right thing”.
Now, I often like to joke around with my friends about how most Americans’ long-term memories don’t go back past the last episode of “Desperate Housewives”, but lately it seems to be the dead-assed truth, and that includes The Movement™. Anyone who thinks that Obama actually has substantially different ideas about the situation that he’s just waiting to express until he’s officially El Presidente has obviously already forgotten his notorious wet, sloppy blowjob of a speech he delivered to last year’s AIPAC Convention shortly after becoming the presumptive (spit) Donkeycratic Party nominee for Maximum Leader.
So, everybody, just knock it off about getting Barack Obombirana to “speak up” about the slaughter of Gaza. The guy’s already said everything he needed to say about Gaza in that lickspittle AIPAC speech. Check it, gang…

So, I’m poring over the Drudge Report in my daily search for cheap laffs, and finding out what the Enemy is up to, and I come across this Associated Press dispatch from Baghdad reporting on the Iraqi reporter who threw his shoes at President Chimp, and thinking “whoa, that’s some cheap laffs – and he almost hit the sonofabitch, too! Sweet!” and move on with whatever I was doing…
Later that day, I go by Drudge again, and find another story from Agencie France-Presse noting that the perpetrator of this “shoe-icide attack” is being hailed as a hero in most of the Arab World, and the next thing I know the whole world’s raising hell to get the guy out of prison, it’s being reported that he’s being beaten in custody, there are demonstrations and rallies all over in solidarity, and I’m thinking…holy shit, this story’s really grown some legs, man!
So far as most of us can tell, the “economic stimulus” plan issuing from The Office Of The President-Elect (snicker) includes the most staggeringly pants-pissing amounts of cash to prop up failing corporations, banks and executives, and jack for the rest of us, unless we’re prepared to summon up some cajones and engage in a little good old-fashioned shop-floor smackdown, like those laid-off screen-door plant workers in Michigan.
On the local level, here in DC, as Inauguration Day – or, as now known to some, Barack Obama Day – approaches, The One’s economic stimulus program for DC has finally begun to jell; according to The Office Of The President-Elect (smirk), this plan will take a two-pronged approach: one prong for the quite well-off, and another big prong for the rest of us…
