The inimitable
executrix has come up with a version of Shakespeare's St Crispin's Day speech as done by George Bush, which is so brilliant that it would be a sin to let it languish in my comments section. So I have dragged it out into the light fo day, for which I hope she will forgive me. I like to think that there's a whole play behind it, called not Henry V but George II (or possible The Madness of George II, except that I believe the American version of the film was called The Madness of King George. Oh well.)
GEORGE II:
We few, we proud, of the National Guard,
Well, the ones who actually showed up
If their father couldn't get them out of it
Shall be my brothers.
The ones that sit on Trent Lott's porch with me
Will be my brothers. Be he never so underprivileged,
This day shall gentle his condition.
So you see, that worked out pretty well for them.
And this is George II's response to the speech to the Governor of Harfleur being leaked:
According to normally reliable sources
Close to the Vile Bruthas
A certain amount of baby-on-pike-spitting
(Condi told me that doesn't mean spitting like, you know, spitting on the ground, which is a disgusting habit, but actually sticking babies up on pikes, which apparently are some kind of stick not manufactured by Halliburton, they'll have to look into that) has been going on.
This is not acceptable.
I'm going to send in more troops.
Assuming we have any more that is.
Also, I saw on TV that there was hot forcing violation happening.
I will not put up with this.
Or horrible murders with hearts torn out.
Also, smoking.
