I know I should probably just let Bush go. But he is still the President. Oh Fuck.
Here is our fear-based leader on the free market: "The crisis was not a failure of the free-market system, and the answer is not to try to reinvent that system."
So knowing everything we know, it's safe to say: The crisis is a failure of the free-market system, and the answer is to try to reinvent that system.
That was easy. Take whatever the man says and assume the opposite!
Bush added: "Free market capitalism is far more than an economic theory. It is the engine of social mobility, the highway to the American Dream."
So that means: Free market capitalism is only an economic theory. It destroys social mobility and leads to a dead end. Kiss the American Dream Goodbye.
Bush is host to the economic summit. That's the summit where all the King's horses and all the King's men try to put Humpty Dumpty back together again. I'm thinking that egg is beyond repair.
We need to lay a new egg.
Thankfully, as the Biggest Lame Duck ever hatched, Bush will now be providing beer nuts and foot rubs. According to one of the economic advisors: Bush will be "providing the snacks and making sure everyone is comfortable..."
Bush has finally found his calling.
