"Since you're, the President , can you, like, set a country on fire..."
This is a quote from Butthead, of Beavis and Butthead, but I think it's so on target as the attitude of W, Cheney, Wolfowitz and all the other neocons, you have to wonder if they are Butthead reincarnated...


Since you're, like, the President and stuff, can you, like, set a country on fire, . . . and then, fly over in a helicopter and say, "I am the President of the most powerful nation on earth. You must bow down before me"? Uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh . . .

- Butt-Head, in Beavis and Butt-Head



(note: this was used as the intro to an article critical of Clinton's policy on Kosovo, and some freepers even cited it; but I think it is MUCH more relevant to Bush and his neocon cronies...)

1. What a Wonderful Quote from Mike Judge
and very representative of our current president's attitude.

2. Reminds me of the bumpersticker I just picked up...
from FightingBobFest in Baraboo, Wisconsin a few weeks ago:

"Since GOD talks thru a burning BUSH, Let's set BUSH on fire and see what God says." :evilgrin:
