In what way is the Bush admin. different from Don Corleone's Family?l

[KlatooBNikto]

Look at their methods first. Fraud.Intimidation.Character Assassination.Infinite greed. Subterfuge.Lying.Stealing.Fixing elections, contracts, budgets.Undermining opposing voices.

The best self incriminating voice belongs to none other than the Consigliere Rove himself: "We are going to fuck him like he has never been fucked before". And you can take it to the bank,I am sure.

1. But the Corleone family never gave Fredo the top job. n/t

[Disturbed]

3. The Bush Crime Family...

invades countries and gets away with it. La Costra Nostra is small time compared to the Bush Crime Family.

4. ^ 5

Nice. :hi:

[Hekate]

2. Olde New England family and connections trump immigrant striving

Give the Corleones another few generations and they can have a son become president too. They just need to perfect that well-mannered social veneer -- and with their dough they can start by sending their sons and daughters off to the Ivy League schools to acquire the requisite polish and connections to old money and old families.

The Bushes? Really makes you wonder...

5. The Bushies don't speak Italian.

Other than that, I can't se any glaring differences

[dbt]

6. The Corleones had some sense of honor.

[No Exit]

7. The Corleones were far more photogenic...

... even Fredo.

But I like the analogy, y'know? Clearly, this clan's "Fredo" is the president now. I guess Neil would be Sonny. Jeb is more like Tom Hayden, though Tom was adopted and Jeb isn't. That means Karl (ugh) is perhaps a very fat, pasty version of... Michael: ruthless, increasingly hardened, on top of the world but in reality filled with an inner emptiness.

Blech. "The Godfather" movies are some of my favorites. I gotta stop making these comparisons b/f I start associating the Bush crime family in my mind with the comparatively benign Corleone family!

[xultar]

8. You beat me to it, the Corleones were much more handsome! n/t

[Stinky The Clown]

9. The BFEE can't even spell "bacala", let alone

do they even know what it is.

[Botany]

10. I wonder if ......

the heads of the MSM woke up to find a horse heads in their beds?

By the way if George was Michael C. he would have shot his dick off in the
bathroom and told his "Godfather, H.W." that it was Bill Clinton's fault.


:kick:

[AzDar]

11. Not a damned thing. Come to think of it, we need more toll booths.LOL

[Midlodemocrat]

12. The BFEE is not Italian

other than that, can't think of much.

[JHB]

13. The Corleones gave cameramen better access

:evilgrin:

[noonwitch]

14. The Bush Administration commands the most powerful military in the world

I'd say that gives them a big advantage over the Corleones.

[mattclearing]

15. The Corleones were Italian.
