So, I wake up every morning, ... not at the first ring of my clock, nor the second. I kind of drag it out a bit. I worry that if I jump out of bed, and turn on my radio, or, God forbid, my television, ... I will discover that George has pulled the trigger on Iran after all.

He will appear on "Prime Time Television" (What the hell is that in this day of TIVO andDVR's?) to explain why he could not postpone a pre-emptive bunker-buster strike with weapons ("Nukular"?) that were required to take out Iran's imminent nukular somethings, ... that are now vaporized and wafting across the deserts of the Middle East. He intends to seek the support of Congress as soon as he gets around to it, ... almost any day now. But his dyslexia allows him the unique and unitary executive luxury of claiming that he misunderstood the spelling of "I-R-A-Q" in the authorization for aggression four years ago. The tape is clear, ... "Go North from Kuwait, ... then turn left, ... , no Right! , ... no Left, and then attack Iran, ... no "Iraq". ("Dick, ... did I get that right?, ... Oh good, I was afraid I really screwed that up big-time! Thanks for your vote of support all along the way! If it weren't for you and Rummy, and Condi, .. this job would just be like taking my leg off with a chain-saw, ... I swear! Wait, ... I gave up swearing when God told me to attack Iran, ... I mean IRAQ, ... Hope I don't screw that up during the SOTUS! Love that kinda talk, ... Makes me feel so 'Predsidential'(sic)! "

So, as a result of a disability overlooked by both parents and teachers alike, we suffer now from the wrong war! We will correct that pretty soon here, ... given the clearly understandable similarity between the spelling and pronunciation of Iraq and Iran. Who wouldn't excuse our Commander in Chief of what any reasonable person (legal term) would understand to be a simple mistake in speaking his commands to the troops as they cascaded across the desert?

For starts, ... I would not, ... excuse Bush, that is. I love disabilities. They are Human and they are understandable, ... but in the Commander in Chief, this is particularly inexcusable. But what I find even more inexcusable, is Dick Cheney, ... with his vasopathic tendencies, ... egging on his "dumb and dumber" friend, the President, to take on the lightest weight dictator first, ... as if he thought Iraq was a great training ground for a bigger war with Iran!

I do not know what remedy the Constitution provides for a President who takes this Nation into an unauthorized war. I suspect that impeachment is the only remedy, as slow and tedious as it might be. ... And who enforces the outcome of impeachment, ... and extricates us from the hypothetical war I suggest might come to pass? Who knows, until such disasters are created for us by our leaders?

You know, ... I have smoke alarms, Carbon Monoxide alarms, security alarms, and safeguards against almost everything but the stupidity of my President and his Vice. Wait, ... wasn't that why I voted in November?

Hope so!
