24. Bush accepts the VP nomination.
Fri Apr 20, 2012, 06:40 PM
Apr 2012

Romney/Bush squeak out a one vote victory in whichever battleground state decides the election this time. The team is coronated by the Vatican Five Black Robes. Obama graciously concedes defeat, goes to work for Goldman Sachs. President Romney is tragically killed when he falls and is trampled by his polo pony. President Bush III takes the oath of office before a shocked nation, united in mourning and resolve to bring the farrier terrorist who shod Romney's pony to justice . The farrier terrorist's great grandfather emigrated to the Land of the Free from Ice Land in 1900. The US invades Ice Land, spends billions of dollars rebuilding the geothermal plants that cost billions of dollars to destroy with million dollar a piece bombs. Thousands of Ice Landers are killed as are hundreds of American heroes. President Bush declares victory ten years before the war ends.
