Congratulations, America. We have exactly the quality of leadership we deserve.

COSTAS: This past week, you restated America's fundamental differences with China. But given China's growing strength, and America's own problems, realistically, how much leverage does the U.S. have here?

BUSH: First of all, I don't see America having problems. I see America as a nation that is a world leader that has got great values.

I hadn't realized that Nero was the President of the United States, but judging by this exchange, it definitely feels as if someone's fiddling while Rome burns. While Our Glorious and Benevolent Leader © is giggling his way through Beijing, our economy continues circling the drain, Americans continue returning home from Iraq in flag-draped boxes, and Americans continue losing their homes due to predatory lenders. Big Oil continues to make record profits, and Republicans continue treating our government as their private playground. And it would seem that neither the apparently permanent detention of "enemy combatants", the monstrous $490 billion deficit, nor the growing credit crisis is enough of a problem to cause The Decider © even the most passing of concern. There are none so blind as those who will not see....

As if all of the above wasn't already bad enough, the Bush Administration is plotting to make the Endangered Species Act extinct. Yeah, all the g-----n animals do is get in the way of drilling for oil, anyway, right? And his Veteran's Administration is refusing to allow voter registration drives at veteran's facilities. Hey, it's not like those folks are likely to vote Republican anyway, so why should the VA make it easier for them to vote?

Still, even the Worst President EVER © is smart enough to recognize that there's no way he's going to be called to account...so who's laughing now? If only Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi could summon an ounce of moral courage and a functional set of cojones between them.

Man, if you voted for Commander Codpiece ©, perhaps you should just turn in your voter registration card before you do any more damage....
