Lest We Fart Jets

Assrocket:
Good Lord. Reporters are often compared to teen-age girls with crushes on Obama, but, as the father of three present, former or about-to-be teen-age girls, I object to the analogy. I personally have never seen a teen-age girl make a fool of herself over a boy the way many--most--mainstream reporters have over Barack Obama.
Now where the... [crashing noises] ...I know it was... [paper ruffling] ...oh yes, here.

Assrocket some time ago:
It must be very strange to be President Bush. A man of extraordinary vision and brilliance approaching to genius, he can't get anyone to notice. He is like a great painter or musician who is ahead of his time, and who unveils one masterpiece after another to a reception that, when not bored, is hostile.
So satisfying. From that last link:
UPDATE: Of all the thousands of posts we have done over the years, this one seems to most outrage the Left, I suppose because it is so at odds with liberals' cherished illusions about President Bush. The tone of the post is obviously tongue in cheek, but liberals never seem to notice.
In some unspecified arrangement of individuals, tongues were inserted in cheeks. Noted.

Via Omniscient J—:
I had the opportunity this afternoon to be part of a relatively small group who heard President Bush talk, extemporaneously, for around forty minutes. It was an absolutely riveting experience. It was the best I've ever seen him. Not only that; it may have been the best I've ever seen any politician. If I summarized what he said, it would all sound familiar: the difficult times we live in; the threat from Islamic fascism--the phrase drew an enthusiastic round of applause--the universal yearning for freedom; the need to confront evil now, with all the tools at our disposal, so that our children and grandchildren can live in a better and safer world. As he often does, the President structured his comments loosely around a tour of the Oval Office. But the digressions and interpolations were priceless.
And
Obama thinks he is a good talker, but he is often undisciplined when he speaks. He needs to understand that as President, his words will be scrutinized and will have impact whether he intends it or not. In this regard, President Bush is an excellent model; Obama should take a lesson from his example. Bush never gets sloppy when he is speaking publicly. He chooses his words with care and precision, which is why his style sometimes seems halting. In the eight years he has been President, it is remarkable how few gaffes or verbal blunders he has committed. If Obama doesn't raise his standards, he will exceed Bush's total before he is inaugurated.

I realize everyone and their mother has done a variation of this joke, but I haven't until now.

Hinderaker puts his tongue in another cheek. And another.

We must assume the J— is for JHWH.

When you fart jets
You fart jets all the way
From your first little toot
To your last dyin' day.

Sheds a whole new light on the lyrics of "Here come the warm jets" (such as they are).

Falling over the waste paper bins and yelling at paintings and such. He was a laff a minute, I bet
