George W. Bush like a painful rash

From Mark Morford, SF Gate Columnist:

It is like some sort of virus. It is like some sort of weird and painful rash on your face that makes you embarrassed to walk out the door and so you sit there day after day, waiting for it to go away, slathering on ointment and Bactine and scotch. And yet still it lingers.

Some days the pain is so searing and hot you want to cut off your own head with a nail file. Other days it is numb and pain-free and seemingly OK, to the point where you think it might finally be all gone and you allow yourself a hint of a whisper of a positive feeling, right up until you look in the mirror, and scream.

George W. Bush is just like that.

I suppose the ever shrinking percentage of Bush appologists will read Mark Morford's column and think to themselves that he's just another Bush basher. I guess they never stop to think that there are very real and legitimate reasons why many people feel the way Mark Morford does about this President. The November elections can't come fast enough. With a Democratically controlled Congress Bush will be stopped in his tracks from doing any more damage to this country than he already has.
