Chicago Bears and the Bush Administration

During last Sunday's debacle against the Bucs, my dad repeatedly asked me why the Bears couldn't get a normal QB to the lead the team. I-Truth asked me why the Bears repeatedly allowed mediocre Bucs WRs the slant option, after Griese's 60th attempt to throw the short slant. They asked these questions as pleas to Lovie Smith, as if he was in the room. On behalf of Lovie, I responded simply, "We like the guys that we got'". A non-answer for sure. But, no doubt this is the stance of Lovie and the BEars. Stay the course and don't make changes. It got me thinking; The Bears are just like the current administration. Here's why.

Bush Admin: Staying the course in Iraq with eyes shut despite constant reassurance that the war is a disaster costing both American and innocent Iraq's lives.

Bears: Staying the course with terrible QB despite constant reassurance that Kyle Orton is an Arena league back-up QB.

Bush Admin: Lead by a southern figurehead who can't distinguish the difference between Al-Qaeda and so called Iraqi insurgent freedom fighters.

Bears: Lead by a southern coach, who can't distinguish the difference between a good CB (Ricky Manning) and a terrible one (Danieal Manning, Trumane McBride).

Bush Admin: Believes that 'machismo' and ego should supersede rational thought. I.E. Lets blow up an entire country because (1) we can; and (2) because 19 terrible people committed a terrorist attack, so lets punish an unrelated country and entire population because, well we can.

Bears: Lets obtain stupid personal foul penalties called during important parts of the game (I'm talking to you Charles Tillman and Mr. Kreutz (who will inevitably get called for a few this year), simply to defend your ego and "protect your house".

Bush Admin: Failure to recognize that your policies (unprecedented spending, cutting taxes and going to war) are hurting the average American.

Bears: Failure to recognize that your policies (Cover 2, obtaining a competent QB, etc), are hurting every Chicago Bears fan.

Bush Admin: Talking down and lying to the American people about almost everything, thinking that said people are idiots.

Bears: Lovie Smith and Jerry Angelo talking down to us fans and lying about injuries and the quality of the team, thinking that we are idiots.

Bush Admin: Thinking that by simply existing in a certain area of the world, we are somehow in a position to win the war.

Bears: Thinking that because its only the "1st quarter" of the season and we're only 1-2, and that by simply existing, we are somehow in a position to win the Super Bowl.

Honestly, like real life, lets hope both this country and the Bears get a change of administration.

Oh yeah, a McCain analogy.

McCain: Picking an incompetent inexperienced idiot as your VP candidate.

Bears: Picking an incompetent inexperienced idiot as your defensive coordinator.
