Now we've gone political. I agree that I don't want Bush for Pres again but I can't seem to convince myself that I want to vote for Kerry. I guess we are just going to end up with the lesser of the two weasels. Anyway back to 'America.. We're Gonna Make Ya Smile'. What bothers me about this is they don't say that it's a good smile. They could be laughing at us with that smile, or just smiling the way the doctors smile at the inmates at the local mental institution. So let's change it to 'America...DOH!' After all isn't there a little Homer Simpson in all of us? Utoh. Now we’ve gone political.

I'm sure that many countries smile to the U.S.'s face only to turn around and curse its policies. You smile to the hated bully only because you don't want to be beat up. Good point, Wise Fool.

Homer Simpson-esque ignorant snafus are definitely in abundance these days. Yet, Homer has a kind of lovable oafness to him, and I harbor no love for our Commander-in-Oaf. How can I when there's so much Mr. Burns wickedness lurking behind the dumb guy front man? I like both your slogans! Homer Simpson-esque ignorant snafus are definitely in abundance these days.

However, while he certainly wields the power I don't think that he himself has the evil of Mr. Burns. The evil I fear is much more dangerous as it eminates from all the henchmen who can carry out their foul plots using the stumbling oaf's power as they see fit. Acting behind the scenes, these evil Smithers are apt to do more diabolical deeds than if they were more public figures themselves. Don't believe that I'm defending GW though. A fool misusing his power is still bad poison no matter how good or misguided his intentions may be. I agree that Bush is very much a Homer Oaf.
