Portlander/Deaner/Democratic activist Joyce McGreevy has a very funny piece in Salon today--a special preview of George Bush's upcoming speech at the RNC. Choice bits:

• "I'm George Bush, and I'm reporting for -- I'm making a report. When you make a report it is a reported entity."


• "If you are a decent folk, don't let the gay spouses get you down. One day they will thank us for protecting them from the marriage penalty, just like the poor people thank us already for protecting them from a death tax in case they ever win the Powerball."


• "Another thing that's interesting that's happening, is we're doing stuff with the ballistic missile interceptor. It's in a silo called Alaska, where they grow the oil that is right now being threatened by wildlife pollution. Wild lives is not natural."

Read the whole thing. And subscribe to Salon while you're at it--it's been a while since I heard any rumors of Salon's demise, but I'm sure they could still use the support.
