printWant a measure of how bad America’s duopoly is; of the extent to which the criminal governments under which we Americans groan have run the country into the ground?
Unpack the significance of this tidbit: The African National Congress (ANC), the dominant party governing my homeland South Africa from 1994 in perpetuity, manages a public debt that is only 23 percent of GDP. According to The Economist, debt in SA “has started rising sharply again and is expected to reach 40 percent of GDP by 2013.”
By that time the apes that have collapsed our country’s economy will have incurred a debt in excess of our national income.
For the benefit of the pigmentally touchy, I use “ape” as a pejorative that applies to both Bush and his philosophical heir, BHO. To lovers of primates; parrots are the superior species.
If offended, substitute with fleas. I once did: “As Dr. Johnson said, ‘There is no settling the point of precedency between a louse and a flea. ‘Neoconservative (Bush) or Progressive (Barack); louse or flea — a pest is still a pest.” —ILANA (October 30, 2009)
Lovely post. I own a parrot as well and you are welcome to use the word ape, for that is what the ANC is all about. Taking the food and leaving the rest of the people starving.
Keep up the good work.
PS. I would use a stronger word than ape!!!
[Send pics of precious parrot.]
Ape pretty well covers the subject. I don’t own a parrot. I just own a dog named Jackson but he will agree with us, as long as I feed him. You know, sort of like a democrat voter.
