Chapter Eight:
Next,Creedence Clearwater Revival's 'Fortunate Son' is blaring out of the Tv's Bose sound system.A barrage of Iraqi war photos flick by...Night Vision aerial bombings-Saddam's statue being pulled down-George W.Bush in full pilot regalia aboard an aircraft carrier with the banner:'Mission Accomplished' behind him.We hear Georgie say the words,"Weapons Of Mass Destruction" and "Liberators" and "We are at War" and "Carry on as normal and "Lower taxes."
"Seems to me,"says Kennedy,"More like a party then a war.Cutting taxes?Shouldn't there be gas rationing,instead?""
"Oh,quit being an old fuddy duddy,"Says Ronald Wilson Reagan.
"I agree with Johnny.This seems more like a party at Yale then another Vietnam."
The music switches over to another C.C.R. song.This time it is,'Born On The Bayou'.Other imagines,now,project on the screen...Mass evacuations-Hurricane Katrina blowing in-people inside the Super Dome-people walking through waste deep waste water-helicopters saving people on roof tops-news reporters crying-dead bodies-people looting for food-and George W.Bush playing a guitar,"Wait,here's another one,"he starts singing,"Tip-toe through the tulips"...Finally the screen goes to the Houston Astro Dome in Texas as it is filling up with refugees.
The screen then goes blank.The three presidents hear these words coming from Barbara Bush,"Don't worry,son,this is a step up for most of 'these' people."
"Gentlemen,"goes the angel Gabriel,"This is where things start going south for our hero."
