The Aristocrats

I've never heard of Tom Gilroy but he wrote this article in the Huffington Post called The Aristocrats that describes the GOP as if they were doing the old time joke (see the movie, it's good). The joke didn't do much for me but I liked the first paragraph as a summary of the Bush administration:

"The shit is so deep with W & Co it's almost dizzying, which is of course the point. You barely have time to focus on one single embarrassing historic catastrophe -- lying about the war, say, or lying about Katrina, or lying about torture -- and suddenly you're blindsided by new scandals, like PlameGate, wiretapping, Abramoff, the Dubai debacle, global warming denial, cutting veteran's benefits or Medicare, Delay, Cunningham, Frist, intelligent design, cash handouts to oil, mining, and natural gas multinationals -- whew."

And I look forward to the where he says he'll "look into what the little people like us in the audience can do to bring down the curtain".
