My child speaks to Mr. Bush

During the State of the Union, while our Emperor was lying and lying and not saying much and then lying again—the success of No Child Left Behind was the one that caused us to choke on our body shots, give up the drinking game altogether and resort to snorting crushed vicodin off of Ella’s tummy—Ruby decided she had a message for El Presidente.

“Dub-YAAAAAAAAAAAAH! NEED! TIME! OUT! You BAD, man!”

She makes her mama so proud…

wow. if I knew there was a drinking game involved I would have watched dubya.
frankly the only way I can stand him is if I am drunk. His smirk. His nasal twang. His absolute mispronunciation of the English language…

RUBY ROCKS

Oh yeah, “New-Cue-Ler” was the one that had me calling all around the city for an 8-ball. Didn’t find it before I zoned out from the liquor and pharmaceuticals. Good thing the kid can put herself to bed…

i *heart* ruby she is so smart! me i sat there and watched like a moron getting angrier and angrier until ultimately i found myself in a laughing fit. also some friends of mine created a drinking game several years ago http://www.drinkinggame.us/ while i can’t possibly do all the drinking they recommend its nice to have choices.

Yes, the No Child Left Behind lie is when I turned the televisions off. Let me assure you, I deal with the children who have been left behind three days a week. They are shunted to alternative schools to keep those test scores UP.

Ruby is right!!!!

I wish we could give him time out for the next year. I worry about what he might do in the time remaining.

That’s my girl! (Swoons awash in pride and adoration…)

Yes, Yes, Yes! Boy, if only we could sit so many of our *leaders* and politicians in “TIME OUT” …. What a wonderful world it could be. Then they would have to “THINK ABOUT IT” and “Don’t YOu Come OUT Till You Say You Are Sorry Mister!” And then they would have to tell us what they thought of their bad behavior now that they got a chance to REALLY think about it.

Yes, I like that idea.

My 3 year old son tells random superheros (that he sees in stores, etc because we dont let him watch that stuff on TV) that they need a time out because they are not suppossed to hit - no matter what. He says, “Batman - You Go For Time Out. You NO Hit. Thats Not OK.” I love it :)

Much Love,
Jodi
