"President-elect gets his first classified security briefing and accepts an invitation from Bush to visit the White House."Most people think, blah-blah-blah whatever we won, no what? But no, two things immediately came to my mind.
Two things that came to my mind when I read that line
-------------- UPDATE --------------Thing Number One That Came to My Mind: Do you think President-elect Barack Obama gets to his first "classified security briefing"--the first real-deal, real-world, scary-ass secret information that he is now entitled to as the most powerful human on earth and now probably in the history of the earth--and he goes, "Holy mother of God!! Are you fucking shitting me?!!"
He had no idea of the realities and now he's kind of scared and wished he'd lost this dumb election. His hair turns white and he grows 10 years older (would've killed McCain).
Thing Number Two That Came to My Mind: It's clearly evident from all you've seen that George W. Bush has a serious man-crush on Barack Obama. He's pissed at McCain and would have hated to see that sell out, rat-face turncoat win. But, Barack? It's all good. You see, Bush is cool. Terrible president but a cool, fun dude's dude. Barack is cool as hell in that smooth, black-thing way. W. loves Barack. Barry loves W. in that fun frat dude on my pick-up hoops team with the hook-ups kind of way.
Barack and Michelle won't get some formal, cold shoulder attitude from George and Laura. I bet there will be a lot of hugging and W. will immediately show Barry all the fun, secret shit; only the best toys on this play date.
He had no idea of the realities and now he's kind of juiced and is so grateful he won this dumb election. Barry and George smoke a fatty on the roof with the Secret Service snipers and laugh about Sarah Palin. They have that middlespace convo. Bush has Altoids and Visine. Duh!
From Berkeley:
Spot on about W and BHO.
And this too:
John McCain lost both elections, 2000 and 2008, to George Bush. In 2000 he couldn't win because of George Bush and in 2008 he couldn't win because of George Bush.
You think McCain doesn't know that? You think W doesn't know that?
Why do you think half of McCain's parting shots in the last losing weeks of the campaign were about George Bush?
BHO and W are gonna be all tight now (like HW and Bubba). Bush is studying up on college basketball so he can shoot the shit with BHO. "How about that Collin's kid at Kansas, Barry? What do ya think of Loyola this year? Huh? He he. Huh?"
Poor Michelle has to suffer the Laura-bot, though.
From Ty:
I bet you Laura-bot is OK behind the scenes (smoking Virginia Slims 'round back). She's regular. And down to the core...Shelly O. is regular (in roots). Michelle will ask about surviving this shit and Laura will tell her. Hillary couldn't tell her about being First Lady but Laura could.
Yeah, Bubba and HW, right on/good point. Everybody is laughing how much of a loser McCain is. Man-crushes/bro-mances are cute as hell.
