Cutting and Running with George and Karl

A BUZZFLASH GUEST CONTRIBUTION
by Ron Schalow

Like too many Democrats, it strikes me they are ready to give the green light to go to war, but when it gets tough and when it gets difficult, they fall back on that party’s old pattern of cutting and running. They may be with you at the first shots, but they are not going to be there for the last tough battles.  -- Karl Rove

Rove wasn’t just jawing when he labeled combat veterans John Kerry and John Murtha, and Democrats in general, as cowards -- he’s been there, man!

It was less than five years ago that Karl and “The Decider” got spooked by terrorists 800 miles away and hit the pavement burning rubber like Thelma and Louise. Instead of engaging the enemy and defending the country during the 9/11 attacks, President Bush surrendered the cities of New York and Washington, D.C. to al Qaeda without a fight and retreated to a deep hole in the Corn Husker State. Karl “Braveheart” Rove cowered at his side hugging a 6 pack of Dove Bars -- he was sticky.

Of course, George appealed to a Higher Power than a 1966 Thunderbird to carry him to safety, away from the terrorist onslaught in Florida -- namely a Boeing 747-200B with soft lambskin seats and a 10-speed snow cone machine. Obviously in a rush, witnesses said the president was strutting so fast from the limo to the plane, his panties nearly burst into flames -- smoke from toasted silk and the fog of war filled the air. It was blinding. And Karl was running in a serpentine path towards the jet, his two blonde hairs waving wildly as he accelerated and slowed to stymie the snipers.

Bush had a good reason for going to Nebraska, though, explaining, “When the president is under threat, one thing for the good of the country is you want to remove the president from the immediate threat. There's nothing worse for a country having been attacked than a destabilized presidency. It would make matters a lot worse.” I can think of worse.

So, according to the delusional, conceited and cowardly George Bush, who isn’t familiar with the line of succession, the geography of the United States, his oath or the concept of bravery -- if a few people have to die while he looks for a comfortable place to hide, that’s their problem. Good ol’ George and Karl -- cut and runners before it became a catch phrase.
