Clinton vs. Bush
by John in DC - 10/11/2004 01:30:42 PM
The Republicans, since they have no record to run on, are apparently sending around an email suggesting we all vote for Bush because he's better than... Clinton. Yes, Bush is still running against Clinton.
Among the accusations in the email are that Clinton invaded Kosovo, and that was okay, but Bush invaded Iraq and somehow that's wrong. Like they're exactly the same thing.
So, I'm happy to draft a preliminary email response:
Clinton invades Kosovo and there are zero US combat losses.
Bush invades Iraq and 1,075 US service members are dead, and more are dying each day.
Clinton invades Kosovo and captures Milosevic.
Bush invades Afghanistan and lets Osama get away.
Clinton invades Kosovo and our troops have the food and armor they need.
Bush invades Iraq and our troops are buying body armor on eBay and begging Iraqi civilians for food.
Clinton invades Kosovo and civilians actually greet us with flowers.
Bush invades Iraq and civilians are cutting off our heads.
The WTC is attacked when Clinton is president and only 6 people die.
The WTC is attacked when Bush is president and nearly 3,000 people die.
Clinton lies about a blowjob.
Bush lies about a war.
Clinton was elected by the people.
Bush was selected by the court.
Number of US commercial planes hijacked while Clinton was president: Zero.
Number of US commercial planes hijacked while Bush was president: 4
Clinton creates a record budget surplus in 8 years.
Bush creates a record budget deficit in 4 years.
Clinton held 42 solo news conferences.
Bush held 15 solo news conferences.
* Clinton took 152 days of vacation time in 8 years.
* Bush has taken (as of August 2003) 250 vacation days. (It's hard work vacationing almost 30% of your first (hopefully only) term.)
Number of new words invented by Clinton: Zero.
Number of new words created by Bush: A lot more than zero.
Number of gay family members betrayed by Clinton-Gore: Zero.
Number of gay family members betrayed by Bush-Cheney: One.
Clinton created the largest economic expansion in over 40 years.
Bush created the largest job loss since Herbert Hoover.
Clinton likes his fried chicken.
Bush likes his liquor.
Clinton tried pot.
Bush used cocaine.
Clinton's daughter has grown into a lovely young woman.
Bush's daughters get publicly drunk and arrested.
Clinton's wife never killed anybody.
Bush's did.
Clinton reads the newspapers.
My. Pet. Goat.
* my little additions to the list ...

Her high school boyfriend back in '63.
Apparently an 'accident' ... however since the 'accident' happened after said boy had broken up with her when she confessed she may be pregnant ... you draw your own conclusions.

Still five weeks a year, which is way more than I get, but I suppose being President may deserve a little more than I get, heh.

Well seeing as active duty military gets 30 days a year. It's not much more.
22 weeks out of 416 is still a lot less than
35 weeks out of less than 200. (- the last count was in august of this year -)
