our Blue's Clue's president
The more I watch this administration the more I am reminded of the children's television show Blue's Clues. Every time George seems just about lost, a giant clue comes out of the sky and he finds something. Whenever Goerge starts to flounder a little too much someone throws him a life-line.
There are also alot of stange things that George has in common with the show. In the following examples you can easily substitute his name to any of the scenarios and feel the sentance is correct.


1. He can't find clues that are right in front of his face.

#2. He misunderstands the word clue with various other words such as shoe, zoo, and other rhyming words.

#3. He asks preschoolers for answers of questions he doesn't know.

#4. He is one of the few people on Earth who can talk to shovels, pails, clocks, and soap.

#5. He wears the same outfit everyday.

#6. He doesn't have a job.

#7. He has conversations with paw prints.

#8. When Blue gives the clues of a brick, a wolf, and a pig, he doesn't know that the story blue wants read to her is the Three Little Pigs.

Now, Blue's clues is an show for the very young and nieve, but the same argument could be made about the current administration except it is geared toward the old and nieve. I don't believe in Santa anymore and I sure as hell don't believe anything Bush says even when you can understand it between the ummms, errs, uhhhs, yeahs and more ummms. The policy being played right now is to make the dissenters look either dangerous or ridiculious. Making the critics look literally increadable and pointing out how simple and silly thier worries are is really starting to work well lately for Bush. After all we got Saddam right ?
Yeah, was he clue one or two I lost track and can't find my notebook.



I am afraid that when we solve the riddle of what is really going on in our country it may be too late to stop it. Rush and the darkside are in attack mode and spinning faster than the tires on a supercharged 67 chevy impala. In the meanime behind the scenes, with eyes that would look better behind stout iron bars, lurks tricky Dick. The heart attack kid, still working for his buddies.



The Dem party is fighting to maintain an air of seriousness to combat the ridicule aimed at most of us over the last few days. Our side can't keep a headline that works to our advantage in the news any longer than Cheney can keep a hard-on.We may be out manuvered but I got faith.
I got faith that here today reading this board is just about 100% people who want thier country back. We need to ignore the infighting of our canidates as the squabbling to establish a front runner continues. We need to start taking apart the current administation and make sure that when we have gotten through getting the facts out that no one can respect, like, admire or even feel sorry for George. George is cleary a man of many qualities, mostly bad ones. All we need to do is make the rest of voters see this and make sure the election isn't rigged. Even someone's nice old grandma can't respect the real George Bush and yes, his mother hates him.

3. I'm with you...
That is a HUGE insult to Steve and Blue. That show is DA BOMB!
My son has learned tons of stuff from Blues Clues. He learned the difference between a circle and an oval when he was just a little less than two years old. He picks up something new every day from that show.

Pick on Barney or something. Leave Steve/Joe/Blue alone.

8. I've only seen him once
I don't have cable so my kid is coping with watching old recorded episodes from 1999 ( from my first kid's obsession with it ) . Saw Joe a couple of weeks ago on A.B.C. sat morning. Wierd feeling, kid didn't seem interested either.

4. a DICTATOR does not need to explain anything, the president of the US MUST
explain him/herself to the people. somebody mixed up the job descriptions they were reading to chimpy, and never bothered to correct him.

I wondered why nobody in the press or anywhere else bothered to point this out to him when he made that outrageous remark

6. they are both a media creation
made up charachters to divert us from the boredom of our everyday lives. Except for the fact one is ruining the country I would be tempted to dismiss it as bad television and shut the t.v. off.
George is no more real than any other actor, although I think he is starting to believe he actually lived his script and charachter background.
