After 8 years of Bush & Cheney,
of Ashcroft-to-Gonzales-to-Mukasey,
of Rummy & Rove & Heckuva-Job-Brownie,
of Iraq, Katrina & cronies & incompetence,
after this week, we won’t have
George Walker Bush to kick around anymore.
Through 8 State-of-DisUnion Addresses,
2 UnAugurals, Presidential debates & the RNC,
we’ve had to raise a glass together,
because it was better than drinking alone,
not to toast the President, but to roast him,
to forget him & to find each other.
After more than 100 Thursdays of Drinking Liberally in Orange County,
this is the last call in the Bush Years. We can all drink to that.
The liberal drinking isn’t over,
& the work continues over Thursdays to come,
but finally we’ll kick a keg marked W.
See you tonight at Memphis at the Santora, 200 N. Broadway, Santa Ana at 8:30 PM.
