American Dumbocracy
(Recycled from the House of Love)
I won’t take any credit for predicting with such pinpoint accuracy the outcome of the Supreme Court case and the American Presidency. It was, after all, the same outcome predicted by just about everyone. So congratulations to President Dickhead — we’re all looking forward to four years every bit as inspiring and entertaining as your father’s incumbency.
Why Bush Should Win
(Recycled from the House of Love)
Dear America,
Please consider the following:
- democracy: noun
- a system of government by the whole population or all the eligible members of a state, typically through elected representatives. (Late 16th cent.: from French démocratie, via late Latin from Greek dêmokratia, from dêmos ‘the people’, + -kratia ‘power, rule’).
[New Oxford Dictionary of English, 1998 edition.]
