Today President George W. Bush was sworn in, while the rest of us were just plain swearing.

"No! This can't F^*%*#^ be happening!"

Yes, it did happen. The snow you saw in Washington was Hell freezing over. A president who squandered the surplus, ran up the deficit, damaged our international standing and launched a pointless war over weapons that did not exist was reelected.

It was really pointless listening to his speech today. He has distorted reality so much that it is difficult to take anything he says at face value. While listening to him ramble on, some old lyrics from the 80's punk/glam band Missing Persons came to mind.

"What are words for, When no one listens anymore."

Does anyone actually hear what he has to say? Bush has somehow managed to take uplifting words like "liberty", "freedom", "mission accomplished" and "democracy" and turn them into cynical, meaningless utterances.

Here is the good news. Bush, Dick Cheney and all of Congress are in Republican hands (not that this is really good news). They can no longer blame Bill Clinton, Tom Daschle or even Jane Fonda for their failures. Not that they won't try, of course. When they do, just tell them:

"The blue dress didn't cause this mess."

It is put up or shut up time for Republicans. Either their policies work, or they don't. It's sink or swim and I hope they have a life raft. So, just sit back and watch the bumbling buffoons bungle. It won't be fun. It won't be pretty. But a day of reckoning seldom is.
