Correction: the adjective "virtually" is unnecessary here. Certainly in some
dimension I am sure there is a flesh and blood ex-drunk named George Dubya
Bush who is listed on the federal payroll as POTUS, civil service grade
whatever. Machts nicht. The REAL President Bush IS an inflatable vinyl doll.
The media is the bellows that keeps this ghastly doll pumped and ready for
action.
I'm a Dubya doll, in the Dubya pol,
Life in plastic, it's fantastic,
You can write my speech, make those liberals screech
Imagination, Mandate is your creation
Wolfie: Come on Dubya, Let's go bomb 'em
Dubya: Ha ha ha yeah
Wolfie: Come on Dubya, Let's go bomb 'em
Dubya: ooh ooh
