Gerard of American Digest recently pointed out that no one has yet compared Bush to Vlad the Impaler, and – upon reading that – it occured to me that the left is making a huge mistake in comparing Bush to Hitler.
After all, Hitler managed to hold the reins of German power for 11 years and was directly responsible for millions of deaths.
What’s Bush’s confirmed body count?
Why, it’s not even as impressive as Ted Kennedy’s.
Besides, as the frothing Kos-kids are forever pointing out, Bush is an idiotic bumbler who has the cunning of Grimace and the success-to-failure ratio of Wile E. Coyote. Surely a more accurate comparison would be to those lovable, bumbling villians who bluff and bluster but never manage to really hurt anyone before their ill-conceived schemes blow up in their faces.
So here’s a list of dangerously unbalanced and/or evil people to whom comparing Bush would be FAR more reasonable:
Snidely Whiplash
C. Montgomery Burns
Boris and/or Natasha
Cobra Commander
Elmer Fudd
Sylvester Pussycat
Dr. Bunsen Honeydew
Any Batman villain from the TV series.
Pinky and/or The Brain
Shredder
Harcourt Fenton “Harry” Mudd
David Letterman and/or Paul Schaffer
The Wachowski brothers
Sideshow Bob
Captain Hook
The Wicked Witch of the West
Severus Snape
Gargamel
Vizzini
Witchiepoo
Skeletor
Jareth the Goblin King
Dr. Smith
and, of course, Frank J.
Who – like George W. Bush – has yet to have a SINGLE confirmed kill of either a monkey or ninja, despite his numerous half-implemented plans to bring about their destruction.
Rebuttals and/or additions are welcome in the comments.
With all due respect many have suffered at the hands of Jareth the Goblin King. It is quite painful to watch David Bowie prance (you heard me)around the screen while spouting loving poetry to a 15 year old girl. FrankJ has never done this. Although his Jackson karaoke was admittedly painful.
Sorry, but given the “In My World” series, my vote would have to be the Infamous Don Karnage from the old Talespin cartoons. Will be hard to get Air Force One made up like the Iron Vulture, but I’m sure the Air Force could swing it.
What about Gene Gene The Dancing Machine?
what about Stewie Griffin?
what about Stewie Griffin?
Stewie?
No, no, no… it was Bush 41 that had the thing against broccoli.
You can’t compare Bush to Severus Snape, at least until the 7th book confirms or refutes for certainty whether Snape killed Dumbledore. For now it is true, but I have my doubts on that being what really happened.
Maybe I’m a Half-Blood Prince Truther 🙂
Hadsil,
J.K. Rowling has already said that Dumbledore is really dead. Therefore, you are correct in saying that Snape has move up from the GWB to Ted Kennedy level of killing.
You forgot:
Rosie O’Donnell- she’s killed just about every movie she’s been in
Guitierrez
The Lobe
Cobra Queen
all from Freakazoid
any and all of the Corleones (The Godfather)
any or all of the Borg (except 7 of 9 – as my then teen age son used to say “Resistance is STUPID)
Judge Doom and his weasels from Who Framed Roger Rabbit
and last but not least Serleena ( Men in Black II – a shamelessly strutting ad for Victoria Secret )
Ariel the Mermaid?
Well, Judge Doom did manage to kill a shoe, so he’s a Kennedy.
Gilligan
Yeah I know Gilligan wasn’t the bad guy, in fact he was always just trying to help, which is why I think Bush is more like Gilligan. He’s just trying to do what’s right and can’t help it if circumstances conspire to mess him up.
The Rumsfeld Strangler is going to get you all for this.
…starting with Harvey…rest his soul…
All the villans on the A-Team TV show.
Lots of automatic weapons fire, no one gets killed.
The head of COBRA from the GI Joe cartoon.
Bush went to steal oil, but failed.
Plankton trys to steal krabby patties, but always fails.
Plankton is Bush.
I think Craing would be a better comparison than Shredder since he was the actual in charge guy. You could, however, compare Rummy to Shredder.
The Gorks from Fraggle Rock.
Jafar from Aladdin. He was a jerk.
I’m a little embarassed for you that you know who “Gargamel” is. I searched “Smurfs” to find out the name of their bad guy and then saw it in the list.
And no, don’t pretend you had to search for his name. You probably still have the Smurf-diorama you made in 10th grade.
I think we all know which villanous bad guy Bush really is, the Sta-Puft Marshmallow Man. They both have the same smirk.
Large Marge from Pee Wee’s Big Adventure.
You forgot that master of inept evil Reggie Mantle (although I see Bush more as a cross between Archie and Jughead).
if they wanna stick to facist dictators, why not benito mussolini? his boys with their guns couldn’t conquer ethiopia with their sharp sticks? thats about as incompetent as it gets
“a shamelessly strutting ad for Victoria Secret” and the problem with that is?
Now capt’n, I didn’t say there was anything wrong with that. I was just describing this particular villain in a way that most folks would remember her.
I’m all for shameless product placement in movies and TV. Helps me decide where to shop. If so and so features a product in their movies, say Hanoi Jane I know I don’t want to shop there.
