Is this the "Nemo" administration?
Triggered by a thought whilst browsing GD just now ...

Has anyone else noticed how "Finding Nemo" reflects the current administration?


The Brat in Chief would be the girl (dentist's niece?) who kills everything
she touches.

Condi Rice is typecast as the air-headed Dory (except not as reliable)
"My name's Dory and here's my story: I live on a reef and I don't eat beef!"
"My name's Dory and here's my story: I live on a reef and I don't eat beef!"
"My name's Dory ..."

Cheney would be the angler fish (ugly vicious bastard lurking in the dark depths)

Rumsfeld would have to be Bruce (the shark) "Heeeeere's Brucie!!!"

The jellyfish would be Rove's media control group - drifting along silently but
quickly ganging up and stinging anyone who is foolish (or daring) enough to get
in their way.

Congress and the Senate would be the mirror fish who line up and form patterns
in an instant, regardless of how appropriate or useless they really are.

The lobbies and other "special interest" groups have to be the seagulls
"Mine!" "Mine!" "Mine!" "Mine!" "Mine!" "Mine!" "Mine!" "Mine!" "Mine!""Mine!"

The guys in the aquarium? Why that's our very own Democratic Underground,
helping the little guy to get to freedom ...


Any alternative casting suggestions?

1. That's hilarious...
And it's not just the lobbies and special interest groups who are like those seagulls. It's the whole damn administration...What about Ashcroft? I don't see him in the list....

4. How about the crab?
The one that Dory holds up to the gulls to get him to talk?

(Glad you liked it! :-))
