Official Grindstaff Chronicles Blog

The Chronicles are intended to share the thoughts and lifestyle of people who work hard, like to relax and enjoy life, and are often dismayed by news, politics, and the events of the day that defy common sense. Most of these blog entries will be duplicates of the newsletters on our site, but occasionally there may be additional material written that may not appear on the Grindstaff Chronicles web site.

Restoration of Honor and Dignity in the White House

Restoration of Honor and Dignity in the White House
 
Whew! Who let the skunk in the house and poked it with the stick? George Bush, or as he’s known down south, the Butcher of Huntsville, under tremendous pressure from the Real Honorable John McCain, signed papers banning torture and demeaning treatment of detainees, then, he turned around and squirted McCain in the face, like the skunk that he is, by immediately also signing what is known as a “signing statement.” In other words, he can sign any bill he’s pressured into signing, but he has no honor and therefore is not honor-bound to abide by the bill he signed.
 
A professor of political science at Dickinson College in Pennsylvania, said that Bush’s squirting his skunk spray in McCain’s face, was Bush’s way of saying: “The structural changes are nice, but I don’t have to listen to anybody in particular.”
 
Honor. McCain has it in spades, and Bush has no inkling of what the word means.
 
Wonder how they say regime change in Crawford?
