Mr. President, Your Helicopter Is Ready!

By John W. Lillpop


With his presidency in shambles and his legacy as "The worst president in American history" all but set in concrete, is it not time for George W. Bush to face reality and spare the nation and the world nearly four more months of grief?

From the total and complete abandonment of border security and immigration law enforcement at home, to out of control spending resulting in trillions of dollars in debt being dumped on the backs of future generations, and to inept and foolish mismanagement of foreign relations that has united the world against America, George W. Bush has done enough damage to America.

Now this human wrecking ball wants American taxpayers to pick up a $700 billion dollar tab to bail out corrupts bankers and whoremongers posing as corrupt bankers.

Enough is enough, by George!

We the people know that the latest Bush proposal is the economic equivalent of 9/11. A domestic act of economic terrorism against people who pay their bills, go to work every day, and live honest lives.

In 1974, America was confronted with a rascal in the White House by the name of Richard M. Nixon. For all his faults, Nixon was generally regard as an intelligent and capable man.

Unfortunately, Nixon was also a despicable crook.

But in 1974, the Republican party was blessed to have a few leaders with cajones and a passion for America. Those noble Republicans walked into the White House at an appropriate time and let Nixon know that his time had elapsed and that, in the interests of the nation and himself, it was time to go.

To his credit, Richard M. Nixon did the honorable thing by resigning the presidency. On August 9, 1974, President Nixon boarded an Air Force helicopter on the lawn of the White House and made his way home to California.

America was grateful for the fact that our "national nightmare was over" and the healing process began immediately.

Today's challenge: Are there are any Republican senators and or house members with cajones?

America needs three of four patriots to deliver a Nixon-like message to George W. Bush namely, "Mr. President, Your Helicopter is Ready!"

By leaving now, Mr. Bush can accomplish the most noble and patriotic act of his presidency.

And America can begin healing.
