w-cool Does the Rap

Julian Sanchez recreates the self deprecating part of w’s acceptance speech:

Even hardline Kerry voters of my acquaintance found this at least temporarily disarming, and one suggested that Bush must’ve taken a page from Bunny Rabbit’s final rap-battle in the Eminem movie 8 Mile. Now that, I thought, is something I’d like to see. So, with apologies to Slim Shady, here’s what I imagine that might sound like�it helps if you picture Cheney behind him scratching Toby Keith on a turntable:
This is hilarious…go to Julian’s Lounge right now to read the rap.

cheney wants to stay in office

Yea, I know, no surprise there.
Radly posts:

A Cynic Might Point Out Who Was in Office the First Time We Got Hit
Vice President Cheney:

It’s absolutely essential that eight weeks from today, on Nov. 2, we make the right choice, because if we make the wrong choice then the danger is that we’ll get hit again and we’ll be hit in a way that will be devastating from the standpoint of the United States.

Geez, is it getting ugly.

I have a couple questions for cheney and company:
1. Who have you bought off to assure it won’t happen before 11/2 or, if you are reelected, afterwards?
2. Gosh, what strange argument will you use in 2008? Or will that have given you guys enough time to suspend the constitution?
3. Is there any reason not to think that you are the wrong choice?
NB: Neither bush nor kerry warrants a position as powerful as that of president of the US. Perhaps no one does.

Simplifying the Tax Code?

When w says:

In a new term, I will lead a
bipartisan effort to reform and simplify the federal tax code.
He apparently means to make room for more special interest loopholes:
…we’ll provide tax relief and other incentives to attract new business, and improve housing and job training to bring hope and work throughout all of America.
…
We will offer a tax credit to encourage small businesses and their employees to set up health savings accounts, and provide direct help for low-income Americans to purchase them.
Seems like more of the same old, same old to me.
Thanks to Atrios for the early look at the w’s presentation.
