The Onion Prophecies
On the eve of Bush's inauguration, The Onion — a satirical paper — published a piece titled, "Bush: 'Our Long National Nightmare Of Peace And Prosperity Is Over.'"
In the story, the Onion made light of a worst-case scenario for the Bush presidency, with Bush making promises like "selling off the national parks," "going into massive debt," "bring[ing] back economic stagnation," and "assuring citizens that the U.S. will engage in at least one Gulf War-level armed conflict in the next four years."
The Onion was just trying to be funny. Instead, it was prophetic.

A satirical newspaper tries to come up with the most extreme example of how a new president can pursue disastrous policies to help special-interest cronies, and every word of it comes true. Have you ever heard anything more frightening in your life?
Go read it, and shake your head at how accurate it was, 3.5 years ago of predicting the disaster that is Dubya's administration...
