I really enjoy the “I Love the 80s” shows on Vh1. And the new set has this short segment — the “What the f#$%?!? Moment of 198x.” Yah. All those are pretty wacked.
But not as wacked as the What the f#$% moment of 2003, which has to be the President of the United States using 1/9th of the police force of England and Wales for his security detail while in London, insisting on structural changes to Buckingham Palace, and the right to tote a “minigun”:http://www.kitsune.addr.com/Firearms/Machine-Guns/GE_XM214_Minigun.htm through the streets of London.
Furthermore, Bush — fearful of Anti-War protesters and hecklers — will only be making one speech in the country. To an invitation-only crowd.
We have a president of a democracy who is afraid to face the general public. Who feels he has to be allowed to carry a minigun. Who insists on a rolling “exclusion zone” no matter where he goes. This isn’t the behavior of a US President. This is the behavior of a Stalin or a Mao. Something is terribly wrong when it gets to this point.
“Artmachine”:http://www.art-machine.org/archives/003369.html and “Warblogging”:http://www.warblogging.com/archives/000764.php have more. Too, too much more.

It’s priceless, isn’t it? And now Republicans are saying he’s gutless for not acknowledging the dead and going to funerals, etc.
He really is an idiot.
