Ever feel like the inmates have taken over the nut house?
Things just get crazier ever day with the Gang that Couldn't Lead Straight.

The stuff they do and say is just ludicrous. It seems that every time they open their mouth now some absolutely pointless, clueless, inane drivel spews out of it.

Everytime I think there is no way they can do something worse then this, they top themselves again.

What was that play back in the 60's, 'Stop the World I Want to Get Off', that's about how I feel lately. Please make them stop. This is beyond ridiculous.

5. The EURO world cannot believe their eyes
Edited on Thu Sep-15-05 04:09 PM by bigbrother05
Regardless of their individual opinions, they almost universally believed the US to be everything as advertized. Strongest, most generous, freedom loving, and possessing a can-do streak that overcame all challenges. They could see the individual lapses, but truly believed. Now the scales have fallen from their eyes and the rancid underbelly of the American dream/psyche has repulsed even the most loyal Yankee-phile. The Euro-on-the-street is dumbstruck by the blinding flash of reality.

On a personal note, as Americans in Europe, we sit back with some popcorn waiting for the next episode of this freak show. Might as well try to enjoy it, it's our tax dollars at work.

2. Ever read "The Lathe of Heaven"
by Ursula LeGuin? I feel like I'm living it.

4. Down here in Dumbfuckistan
We know it's not a sitcom. Watch the Yayhoos suck up every bit of it.
