Our Next President? Michael Bloomberg



"Rose's are reddish,

Violets are bluish,

If it weren't for Jesus we'd all be Jewish."

That's the attitude we all need to have about Michael Bloomberg. This guy is perfect for America and America is perfect for Michael Bloomberg. The only negative is that he is Jewish. And that is not a negative for us, but that will ensure that the U.S. will be hated even more by the rest of the world, particular the Middle East. If the Middle East didn't hate us enough by barging into their countries and create a Civil War, they will really hate us when they find out that our leader is a Jew.

But seriously folks, Bloomy is the man. So what if he is not a politian. He knows how to run things. He created a multi-billion dollar company. That is no easy task. Then he became Mayor of NYC and has done a great job. Let me tell you, going from a business man to the Mayor of NYC is no easy task. But he did it gracefully.

And as Mayor he has passed laws to create safer auto-emmissions, cracked down on mob-related businesses, got rid of the homeless people, eliminated low-income housing, made a universal healthcare plan for all of NYC, implemented a software program that identifies terrorists on subway cars (an alarm goes off when it detects someone with brown skin), gave raises to all employees with blonde hair and blue eyes, fought outragous rate hikes by the MTA, formed immigration laws that sent all Mexican people back to China (even if they were legal American Citizens), took back Dunken Dounuts from the Indians, paid for a new Yankee and Mets stadium with his own money, legalized Marajuana and allowed all the porn shops to re-open that Guilianni shut down. Ok, I made up the last one and the second to last one.

But this guy takes the subway to work every day. He is a man of the people, even though he is a lot richer than everyone in America.

The real reason I think he will be the next president? Because he will pay for his own campaign. How big is that? HUGE! He will not take contributions from big donors who expect big legislative changes in their favor. He will stick to what he thinks will make the country run effectively. Granted he is not an expert in foreign affairs...but who is? Bush? We shouldn't be dealing with foreign affairs, except places like Dufur where people can't even find food.

Bloomberg will help our economy which is all fucked up right now. And he will help our health care crisis in a more logical way than Michael Moore's way. Sorry Moore, but America is about a million times bigger than the Netherlands and we all don't make the same money like they do. And we are all not all white like they are. America needs someone who can handle something that complicated.

Plus Bloomy is a big environmental guy who see's the value of paying attention to our environment, which is something we need to start doing something about now before American is covered by an Ocean.

The biggest thing though is the money thing. Bush cowtows to his big money freinds. They want him to go to Iraq and get a strong hold on oil and he does. They want him to look for oil in Alaska, he starts drilling. They want him to break the levy's in New Orleans to wipe out the poor people, he does.

Bloomberg does not need to cowtow to anyone. He is like one of those friends of Bush...as far as power is concerned. He controls the power. And he is a good guy.

I guarantee Bloomberg will be our president in '08. Mainly because I think he is the man for the job. Plus, when it is time to vote I am going to keep dialing into Fox till I get like 500 votes for the guy.

The Moth (Hand of God)


I was driving home in the rain
the falling drops streaked like pain
as I ruminated my 'bad' day again
and again

I felt something graze the top of my head
but kept singing Springsteen instead
of checking out that which hit me and fled

'Dancing In the Dark'
became stark

as the moth's wings flutter by my ear
the lyrics meaning revealed clear
And as I was near the moth's fear
and sudden as a chest full of spear
my hand did appear

grabbed that moth by his wings
and just as Springsteen sings
how he gets up in the evenings
and comes home in the mornings
I hold all this moth's alarmings
and drive

Toss him out a minute later
his struggle mighty theater

and I realize that's like the hand of God grabbing me
laughing at my life and dropping me in Germany

I am awash
in what I did to that moth

no way to get food
no way to find his brood

Just find a light
and live your flight
hold it tight

Blech

Wasted is as wasted does
and love is as love was?
Gravity is certain
eyelids are curtains
coming down after bad decision
acted out with such precision
as to make a brain surgical incision

and whittle away pain and regret
dashing any impulses mean or upset
wanting all that I want
and typing in this font
