Extreme Makeover; Bush style

A few years ago, talk shows like Oprah (for normal house wives) and Sally Jessie Raphael & Ricky Lake (for the white trash variety house wives) started having make over shows. They would take semi good looking women, give them a dye job, hair cut, professional makeup, nice clothing & shoes and basically transform them into a good looking sexy women.

Fastforward to 2004 when the ABC network started having "extreme makeover show" where in addition to hair cuts and nice shoes, the people on the show would actually have plastic surgeons and cosmetic dental surgeons do liposuction, breast implants and sometimes very serious reconstructive surguries on them.

As I reflect on what Bush and the neoconservatives have done to/in Iraq, it reminds me of a makeover show. But instead of a person a country is being made over; too look good according to the standards of white super rich middle aged Christian men.

Iraq was to be mistress # 2 for the U.S. For the past 40 years, Israel has been U.S.'s mistress. U.S. has financially supported all along and she has always been on U.S.'s side. But now there is a need and desire for a new, younger & sexier mistress. Her name is Iraq.

Bush and his buddies dreamt of an Iraq with a democratically elected government which would ultimately be under the control of Washington.

An Iraq with a Billion dollar U.S. embassy, 7 military bases, proximity to Iran, Russia, the Persian gulf, the oil etc etc, Iraq sure sounds like a very desireable mistress.

What Bush and his buddies didn't take into account was that not everone is going to roll over and play dead just because.......

Lets hope Bush is not looking for a 3rd mistress since #2 didn't quite workout the way he had hoped.

Beware of venerial disease

by Jeesh Daram on

Good analogy, although State of Israel's flirtation and romance with the US government is that of a "babe and her sugar daddy" however as for Iraq it proved to be a case of a serial psychopath going after an old and ailing woman and raping her. Invasion of Iraq was more of a rape than a "mistress" relationship. And as for Saddam he was nothing more than Rumsfeld's appointed pimp.

The awakening for Bush and and his buddies will materialize when the morning comes and they are going to find out that they got venerial disease and it will follow with syphilis. The shit will hit the fan.

Another back stabbing of America by the British in the Middle East, when is US going to learn not to trust those Brits? The British use condoms when they fuck a country, US government on the other hand looks at the world as a mere football field.

Maybe a little bit like on line dating!!

by ahvazi on

The picture looked good on line but when you meet the date in person you see that the person looks nothing like the picture. That's when you are stuck with the person and can't leave immediately. You have a few drinks and she tells you all her problem and how needy she is and you believe if you leave the person will have a serious breakdown when you know deep inside you should have not come in the first place and now you are too involved... and you sit there for hours when you should have left earlier.
