ONE SUCH LETTER -- I want to share with you a very deep concern I have about Pres. George W Bush. To start, the irony is that Bush's most pesky litanies are also his most prurient. As the French say, "Les extremes se touchent." He demands obeisance from his encomiasts. Then, once they prove their loyalty, Bush forces them to turn peaceful gatherings into embarrassing scandals. The bulk of intransigent vendors of deconstructionism are at least marginally tolerable, but not he. I refuse to dance to his libidinous tune. Sounds pretty unforgiving, doesn't it? But is it any more so than his lame-brained proposed social programs?
Bush's ideals reek of so much radicalism that the smell makes me nauseated. At the risk of sounding a tad redundant, let me add that I believe I have found my calling. My calling is to break the mold and stray from the path of conventional wisdom. And just let him try and stop me. It's not easy for me to say this, but it's only rational to think, "I have absolutely nothing in common with Bush". There, I said it. Now I can continue with my previous point, which is that Bush engages in pietistic babble that nauseates even some of my more religious friends. The best example of this, culled from many, would have to be the time Bush tried to blame our societal problems on handy scapegoats.
His credos have nothing to do with freedom and honor but everything to do with absenteeism. And I can say that with a clear conscience, because I respect the English language and believe in the use of words as a means of communication. Tactless party animals like him, however, consider spoken communication as merely a set of noises uttered to excite emotions in semi-intelligible, voluble libertines in order to convince them to manipulate everything and everybody. You don't need to be a rocket scientist to detect the subtext of this letter. But just in case it's too subliminal for some, let me thrust it into your face right here: I do not propose a supernatural solution to the problems we're having with Bush. Instead, I propose a practical, realistic, down-to-earth approach that requires only that I act as a positive role model for younger people. I want to thank him for his activities. They give me an excellent opportunity to illustrate just how hostile Bush can be. His bons mots manifest themselves in two phases. Phase one: use psychological tools to trick us into doing whatever possession-obsessed killjoys require of us. Phase two: turn our country into a daft cesspool overrun with scum, disease, and crime.
That doesn't necessarily mean that Bush's approach is generally to seize upon an anecdote or a narrow and limited manifestation and/or purpose, and then totally blow it out of proportion to justify his pathetic, fickle smear tactics, although it might. Rather, it means that Bush is extraordinarily brazen. We've all known that for a long time. However, his willingness to make it virtually impossible to fire incompetent workers sets a new record for brazenness. Even though he presents a public face that avoids overt quislingism, there is no such thing as evil in the abstract. It exists only in the evil deeds of evil people like Bush.
I find his plans for the future rather warped, don't you? His expostulations can be rightly understood only as what some pugnacious amnesiacs have been brave enough to call them: a failure. Someone once said to me, "It is a sad state of affairs when anti-democratic exhibitionists like Bush twist my words six ways for Sunday." This phrase struck me so forcefully that I have often used it since. He has stated that every featherless biped, regardless of intelligence, personal achievement, moral character, sense of responsibility, or sanity, should be given the power to rob, steal, cheat, and murder. One clear inference from that statement -- an inference that is never really disavowed -- is that the only way to expand one's mind is with drugs -- or maybe even chocolate. Now that's just uncivilized. My mother always told me, "If you don't have something intelligent to say, just keep quiet." Apparently, Bush's mother never told him that. To conclude, there is much more of this to come.
This post is purely fictional. This complaint letter was computer generated. Anybody with passing knowledge of current events could tell this. This is meant as satire and should be treated as such.
