Moby Counts Down To The End Of Bush’s Presidency

Moby checked in with fans on his official web site’s blog on Sunday (January 18), reacting to news that George W. Bush’s final approval rating is at 22%, the lowest of the Republican’s eight year run. Moby tells readers:

In any case, the 8 years of Bush and Republican rule are coming to an end. The remainder of Bush’s term can be measured in hours. Tick tock tick tock. I mean, it’s almost done. 8 years of Bush and Cheney and Tom Delay and Donald Rumsfeld and Trent Lott and etc etc. Almost done. America is still crazy, and could theoretically still elect a dangerously arrogant and incompetent president in the future. Most Americans still employ the ‘he seems like a fun guy to have a beer with’ criteria when voting and are invariably less discriminating in choosing a president than they are in choosing a plumber (I mean, would anyone pick a plumber based on the ‘he seems like a fun guy to have a beer with’ criteria?). But maybe we’ve learned. I doubt it, but it’s possible that enough people have learned and there’ll be a reasonable and reasonably informed majority who will at least try to make informed and educated choices when they vote. Who knows what will happen in 2 and 4 years when America votes again. In the meantime it’s 96 hours until regime change.
