It’s August again and George W Bush is once again on vacation. When Al Qaeda was preparing to attack the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, George W Bush was on vacation. When Hurricane Katrina was about to strike New Orleans, George W Bush was on vacation and stayed on vacation. While our troops have been fighting in Iraq year after year, George W Bush has gone on vacation year after year.
Meanwhile, many other Americans this year are curtailing their vacations, cutting them short or skipping them all together.
I’d like to offer George W Bush a final good riddance vacation. After so many years of problems and ineptitude, I have just about given up on the prospective of an early departure and replacement with a competent leader.
But I will not begrudge him one last vacation for departing, as long as he actually departs!
I’d like to see him head to Branson, spend some time in Missouri, touring Silver Dollar City, rubbing elbows with real Americans again. Let him spend sometime in the Titanic museum (assuming that the tragedy does not hit to close to home with the ship wreck of his administration) or possibly spend some time in Cosmic Cavern in Arkansans or the Talking Rocks Cavern of Reeds Spring Missouri. Maybe some time in a cave might clue him in on where he should have looked for Osama Bin Laden.
All in all I’d even like to see him spend some time enjoying the local scenery and shows, which might even give him the rest and refreshment he would need should we all be so fortunate as to see him prosecuted in The Hague.
