Dear Andy Card: Get A Life.


While the flames of the Bush Recession continue to rage ever higher, Andrew Card is on a rant about how President Obama should be wearing coats and ties more often. Here's an excerpt from an interview Card did with Inside Edition.  You'll love it.
There should be a dress code of respect," Card tells INSIDE EDITION. "I wish that he would wear a suit coat and tie."
Card is the first member of the Bush administration to bash Obama personally, and he's going after him for forgoing a coat and tie.

"The Oval Office symbolizes...the Constitution, the hopes and dreams, and I'm going to say democracy. And when you have a dress code in the Supreme Court and a dress code on the floor of the Senate, floor of the House, I think it's appropriate to have an expectation that there will be a dress
code that respects the office of the President."

Card continued, "I don't criticize Obama for his appearance, I do expect him to send the message that people who are going to be in the Oval Office should treat the office with the respect that it has earned over history."
Respect for the office?  Symbolizes the Constitution?  These Bush guys are still clueless about respect. Maybe it's because they gained so little respect from the American public while they served the country. 

Respect?

Pointing these dandies out will never convince Bushies (all eight or nine of them), but here was the example of respect they showed over the last eight years.  Do we even have to mention the shape of the nation's economy?  How about DOJ chief and Bush hack, Gonzalez, covering up the politically motivated firing of US attorneys?  No respect there.  Preemptive war on Iraq (for the wrong reasons)?  War On Terror?  Osama's Bin Hidin' since Bush left Afghanistan. The fourth amendment? Shredded.  Guantanamo Bay?  American citizens arrested...never detained, never brought to court.  Habeus Corpus?  Warrantless wiretapping?  Zero respect.

As Moody quickly pointed out, "If I were Andy Card, I would find a line of work other than fashion advisor to the Obama administration.  George W. Bush's presidency is the most spectacular failure in American history.  It's sole beneficiaries are the descendants of James Buchannan whom Bush has lifted from dead last amongst the worst Presidents ever."

I agree. 

Get a life Card.
