George Bush Rah-Rah-Rah!

Posted in Politics & Causes, Some Fun Now, The World, Featured by n. mallory | .

My co-worker, the crazy one who thinks President Bush is listening to her cell phone, cracks me up.

I was telling her about my grandmother, the living one, who despite being bipolar is just plain perky in the senior citizens’ home with all of her new friends and little boyfriends. I added that of course, she’d been a cheerleader in high school…

Well, suddenly my co-worker asked, “Is it true that George Bush was a cheerleader?”

I thought, “Oh, Lord! What now?” but said “Yes, that’s true.”


This led to her making an observation that if you listen to his speeches, they’re all about rallying the troups and patting Americans on the back and, well, rah-rah-rahing. He’s all about “Fight! Fight! Fight! Go! Win! Fight!”

Think about it.

Cheerleaders aren’t the ones actually out there in the game. They’re on the sidelines, blindly ignoring fouls and faults and big screw-ups. No matter what happens, it’s their job to keep up the morale of the team’s supporters.

Really. Think about it.
