British Invasion and the Bush Marketing Machine

I see it as a last ditch effort for him not to leave office looking like the complete douchebag that he is. What? Sending thousands of Americans to die on a half assed rumor? Wha?
Georgiekins has a serious case of the 14 year old boy "They just don't understand me" syndrome. He sits crosslegged on his bed hunched over Christian comic books where Jesus is portrayed as the world's enema and not the peaceful, fun loving dude that he was. In the words of that hippie guy John Prine: Jesus was a good guy, he didn't need this shit.
The email read: ( literally peeled from my inbox)
Last week President Bush signed into law the “Ensuring Continued Access to Student Loans Act of 2008’’, effective July 1, 2008. One of the components of this new regulation increases the Federal Unsubsidized Stafford Loan Limits for undergraduate students. For both dependent and independent undergraduate students the annual maximum increased by $2,000. Aggregate levels were also increased from $23,000 for dependent undergraduates to $31,000 and from $46,000 for independent undergraduates to $57,500.
Unfortunately, due to this regulation change we will have to delay our awarding process. Our records indicate that we have received your FAFSA information, however, please be aware that you may not receive your 2008-2009 Financial Aid Award Notice until mid-June

BASTARDS!!!
Don't these people understand that I'm about as patient as a canker sore?? What the hell do I care that Bushie is trying to make a little nice before he leaves? I mean, great, they're gonna let me put myself further in debt - Gee, Thanks. But I am in a holding pattern on what the next 6 months of my life will be like until I get an answer on my Aid package and I'm pretty sure my plane in running out of petrol.

That, and I've been watching too much BBC. Words like bullocks, bleedin, bloody hell are peppering my everyday vocabulary. Great way to cuss without really cussing. Us Yanks don't view bullocks in the same light as bullshit - though they are used in virtually the same context.
Anyway, I have the next 3 WHOLE DAYS off from both my jobs and I will be using that time to study, move, plan my son's 4th birthday and maybe get in a shag or two.

2 Cheers, Rebuttals and the Like:

MAD has become an everyday part of my vocabulary as of late.

Like "He's gone mad!!!!!"

It's from reading too much British literature.

I'm pretty tired of the guy myself, and I'm a conservative. :(
