George W. Bush: Your Country Needs You

Saturday brought even more insanity when one of the victims of the Tucson shooting yelled: "your dead!" at Tucson Tea Party leader Trent Humphries. Of course, the craziness began oozing out on twitter shortly after the heinous attack occurred. I suppose the progressive political vitriol will never relent.

One explanation for this is that progressive and liberal demand for deranged invective exceeds the supply of people to blame. Therefore, we must fix this critical market failure by increasing America's supply of scape goats!

As has been pointed out by Michele Malkin and Markos Krugman, George W. Bush, first elected to the Presidency in 2000, has a long history of satiating lefty derangement syndromes. It is incumbent upon him to share the blood libels and other hate currently directed at Sarah Palin. To do otherwise would be unchivalrous.

Therefore, I'm calling on President George W. Bush to run for Congress in the great state of Texas.

Whether he should run for Senate or House is really a decision for him. Kay Bailey Hutchinson has announced that she will retire from the Senate; however, it would upset the pecking order of the state GOP if he were to elbow his way to the front of the line in that race. Given that Texas will gain four seats in the House, I think it would be more politically astute for him to seek election as a Representative. This would also put him in rarefied company, since the only other person to serve in the House of Representatives after serving as President is John Quincy Adams.

Democrats Lost House Because of Bush

Nancy Pelosi (D-SF) on why the Democrats lost the House in November: "We still would have lost the election because we had 9.5% unemployment. Let's take it where that came from. The policies of George W. Bush..." I'd hate to see an end to this sort of Bush Derangement Syndrome, so I hope former President George W. Bush considers a run for the House in 2012.

Obama's Tax Hike Extravaganza

Each tick of the clock brings us closer to the expiration of the Bush tax cuts. Rush Limbaugh has come out against the compromise bill as has far-left Senator Bernie Sanders. President Obama has unwittingly united the left and the right, but what's gnawing at him is the ghost of George W. Bush.

Having won the presidency in 2008 largely by vilifying Bush, Barack Obama is now facing the reality that Bush's tax cuts will become Obama's Tax Hike Extravaganza at the stroke of midnight that begins the new year. And Obama will receive the blame because of his failure to lead on Tuesday, his abdication on Friday, and the fact that Democrats have controlled both houses of Congress and the Presidency for the past two years. Thus the nation plods, zombie-like, toward the economic catastrophe of higher taxes for all.
