Secret GOP Convention Plans!

Author: SharkPublished: Aug 01, 2004 at 1:49 pm 6 comments

Thanks to a few well-placed bribes (aka "Lobbying efforts"), inside informants, and some stealth volunteer work by yours truly, I've been able to get my hands on the highly secret overall plan for the upcoming GOP Convention. It's a remarkable document that shows the minute-by-minute scheduling of what promises to be one of the greatest parties since Albert Speer lit up the sky that night in Nuremberg.

There is nothing particularly controversial about the things in this secret document, but one thing it makes explicit: the Bush people might not know how to plan an occupation of a conquered nation in the Middle East, but they sure know how to plan a big bash.

Enjoy,
SHARK

GOP CONVENTION SCHEDULE

(FOR YOUR EYES ONLY! Destroy after use! If asked about contents,
pull the old "national security" bit like we did on the 9/11 testimony; hey, it worked!)

NOTE to Madison Square Garden Staff:

* make sure all concessions have changed the following signs:

-- "French Fries" to "Freedom Fries"
-- "Hot Links" to "Liberal Weinies"
-- "Hot Black Coffee" to "Warm Inclusive Drinks of Color"
-- "Men's Restroom" to "Heterosexual Males"
-- "Women's Restroom" to "Supportive Wives and Stay-at-Home-Moms"

BEFORE national TV coverage begins:

* check inventory of flags, size 38 thru 60, required for all speakers to wrap themselves in;

* pass out "no-bid" Iraq contract applications to all attendees who are rich business owners, ie. all of them;

* announce that "inclusive" GOP look will include many pesky minorities who have been given front row seating in sight-line of TV cameras only for the duration of national network coverage — and will be moved to appropriate spots in back of auditorium before and after said coverage begins; apologize for the inconvenience;

* announce that any donors of $100,000 or more will be given special tour of backstage cages to pet, feed, and visit with Pat Robertson, Pat Buchanan, and Tom Delay. Do not, I repeat, DO NOT allow them out of their cages during TV coverage! You all know what can happen when Buchanan speaks!?)

    We're not worthy.

    Shark, If this wasn't so fuck**g close to the truth I'd be laughing my ass off.

    This is brilliant satire. Did I overlook any mention of Farenheit 9/11 or health care, or are they not scheduled for convention discussion? (Shelved like Condolezza??)

    Thanks for the kind words, kids. You know I do it all for you!

    Saxton, re. your comment:

    I wrote this about 2 weeks ago but I figured I'd better post it, since much of what I wrote was already starting to go from fictional satire to reality nightmare, ie that emergency, hastily thrown-together "Sunday Surprise" terrorist "warning" that gave us vital information that was 2 to 4 years old.

    A satirist almost can't keep up with the Bushies. Along with freedom and democracy, they're making satire obsolete.

    UPDATE: As usual, I was correct; the "compassion" night at the Nuremberg spectacle included a greater percentage of minority speakers than are in attendance at the 'rally'.

    Watching the idiot box, you'd think the GOP was the NAACP and the LULAC combined.

    Feh.

    And Zell Miller? Man, that was almost as self-destructive for the GOP as Pat Buchanan's culture war tirade a few years ago.

    More Zell! We love slobbering southern inbreeds!
