Nobody Could Have Predicted...

OK, so I heard another public official uttering this immortal Condaleeza-ism this weekend on NPR, this time in reference to something or other about the California wildfires.

"Nobody could have predicted..." he said. Blah blah blah.

Here I thought we were paying a bunch of smart people shitloads of public funds to sit around and predict shit. Worst Case Scenario Analysts. Disaster Planners with Imagination. Apparently, this ain't the case, because nobody's predicting things or even capable of predicting things. So, I propose an Office of Wild-assed Predictions.

It would be the job of these people to just make shit up 24/7: all the shit that could go wrong. Constantly thinking up new shit going wrong, man-made, natural, or otherwise. Prediction Gurus. All fucking day. Because I don't want to hear again how "Nobody could have predicted...such and such."

Do your fucking job, gubmint!

Just a thought.

It's called the Office of the Vice President. Talk about wild assed predictions that have cost this country billions. Nobody does it better than that office.
