The crown jewel in George W. Shrub's life mission of personal revenge: JEB!1 crashed/burned.

To lesser and greater extents the B.F.E.E. has been a plague for 36 years, longer if including our pre-lifetime history. I have no illusion that JEB!1 will be gone forever, since he will doubtlessly be tapped for whatever, not to mention that somehow the B.F.E.E. have treated this country as their personal feeding trough. As Poppy said, "My boys have a right to make a living!1" And then there is George PEE Shrub already ensconced in Texas ready to wend the well traveled family road.

But if anybody is savoring the crashing of JEB!1 more than anybody, I submit it is Shrub. Shrub's mission in life has been to avenge himself on anybody who hurt him and secondarily hurt his family. Yeah, we can say going after Saddam was to avenge Poppy, also avenge Poppy for Dan RATHER, but also his own long list of personal enemies of his own -- the suicided author of Fortunate Son, GORE, any number of reporters who described his character, we'll never really know all of them.

But Shrub's earliest targets of his animus were Poppy himself for being disappointed in him and JEB!1 for having been the favored one. He got massive revenge on them both by forcibly taking back his birthright and had to pretend to use a cover of family solidarity once he was in the top spot, but now his cup runneth over with JEB!1 crashing and burning.
