Barney's Last Christmas Video is a Sad-Spangled Coda to the Bush Administration
As you may or may not know, depending on how often you get out, each year the First Dog — that would be Barney, George W. Bush's Scottish terrier — makes a festive Christmas video for all Americans (who aren't Jewish or anything) to enjoy.
In this year's edition, Barney has crappily-animated dreams about winning various Olympic events, because the Olympics were the only good thing that happened under George W. Bush. And then the Ruiner-in-Chief interrupts his dog's sleep to tell him there's no time for dreaming: "You better wake up, fella, there's a lot of work to do around here," he says. "We're sprintin' to the finish, not nappin' to the finish."
That's right, Barney. The president's only got a few weeks left to bungle the economy, cut environmental protections and endanger the endangered species.
Dear lord, why can't he just nap to the finish?

Wait, can we have one more Barney moment — one in which he bites the collective @$$ of the entire Bush administration as it departs the White House on January 20?
Sorry, my contempt is showing, and I can't throw shoes over these danged intertubes thingies!
@bearness: I think someone talked about posting that a while ago, but then we decided it was in fact the Sun Devils Pitchfork, not the Shocker. But rest assured, we spent a lot of time with Google Images. Researching.
I've thought a lot of bad things during the Bush administration, but this is first time I've thought of murdering puppies.
If he napped to the finish he's probably fall asleep on the "blow up the world" button. at least if he's sprinting he'll get there sooner.
Gee, what did you get for Christmas? Nothing? because the economy's in the toilet? Wrong, wrong, wrong. You got to have your tax dollars spent on the crappiest Christmas wish ever! My life is ever so much better because of that video! It makes the headache and the high blood pressure and the depression just evaporate. Thank you, W! And Merry Christmas to you and yours, as well. I hope your holiday is every bit as enjoyable as mine is going to be.
Is it January 20th, yet?
bearness, he's just asking us to read between the lines.
This isn’t satire? Awesome find Mary.
Speaking of things from http://www.whitehouse.gov, here’s The Presidential “Shocker”: http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2008/11/images/20081112_d-0077-5-515h.html
Okay, “supposedly” it is the Arizona State “Sun Devil’s Pitchfork”. As differentiated by the spacing between the first and middle fingers. But I know in his heart, he’s giving the nation The Shocker.
