alexmegamiMAKE THE PIE HIGHER
by George W. Bush
I think we all agree, the past is over.
This is still a dangerous world.
It's a world of madmen and uncertainty
and potential mental losses.
Rarely is the question asked
Is our children learning?
Will the highways of the Internet become more few?
How many hands have I shaked?
They misunderestimate me.
I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity.
I know that the human being and the fish can coexist.
Families is where our nation finds hope, where our wings take dream.
Put food on your family!
Knock down the tollbooth!
Vulcanize society!
Make the pie higher! Make the pie higher!

Damn, reading this "poem" of Bush malapropisms makes me think of a school project I did in... hmm, must have been OAC, but I'll be damned if I can remember what class it was for. It was basically a magazine - oh, I think it may have been grade 12; we were supposed to pick something that was a theme of Brave New World or summat like that, and write a magazine based on it. So we [I don't remember who 'we' were - SimonL?] did politics.
Anyway, all our advertisements and visuals revolved around making fun of Bush. "Fall into the GAP", with the GAP logo falling into Bush's head; "You misunderestimate the power of the Dark Side" Bush Wars comic... good times.
