Oh, To Be in the Gee O Pee

By Zamboni

We cats wonder how it feels to be a Republican these days.

What a comedown it must be, after that euphoric rush they enjoyed from the Palin nomination. Now, they're facing the hard fact that their "MBA President" has ruined the country financially as well as in every other way — and there will be dire consequences, on November 4 and beyond.

As if that weren't bad enough, the Administration's desperate bailout plan — which they insist must be enacted immediately to forestall a global economic meltdown — looks like the Second Coming of the New Deal. Even the Prince of Darkness, Dick Cheney himself, couldn't sell it to House Republicans this morning. (Republicans, don'tcha know, have a basic aversion to government interference in the private sector.)

All this irony would be supremely amusing were we not so concerned about what the Bushies have done to the country and our lives. But we'll take a small moment of schadenfreude and PURR while we contemplate the Republicans' state of mind.

Socialism is looming, and they have no one to blame but themselves.
