The Enigmatic and Evil George W. Bush

Good Morning Bloggers - We don't have much time left when it comes to the embarrassing debacle that is the Bush Administration, but almost as if to tweak us even more before leaving office, the so-called President has decided to pretty much ignore a new middle eastern war in favor of cutting brush at his Crawford Ranch. It seems there's no end to the joke that is George W. Bush.

My position is simple, I do believe that Israel has a right to defend itself, and the Gaza attacks were probably necessary, but I also feel that excessive force is unwarranted. That's what seems to be unfolding now. The danger of a wider, regional conflict is VERY serious, and now I'm terrified by what is unfolding in the Gaza Strip.

People, WE could be drawn into a larger conflict. That is something that we CANNOT AFFORD right now. The US has to get involved to calm the situation NOW! Instead, Bush refuses to leave his vacation, and Rice hasn't left her Washington office. They don't seem to be doing anything!

To give us some perspective, this is the very same President, the one who claims to honor his promises to the American people with a seriousness only Republicans can understand, who pledged to resolve the Middle East peace process from Annapolis just 13 months ago. Well, the White House quietly dismissed that promise last month. Now it's taken that breakdown one step further by IGNORING the Middle East all together.

George W. Bush, the narcissistic fool, who Republicans continue to defend for psychotic reasons few others understand, REFUSES to leave his final vacation to try and mitigate the disaster unfolding before our eyes. Just like Katrina, the man's inaction and incompetence will worsen a serious situation that might have been helped under normal leadership. It's almost as if he dares us to despise him even more.

We're facing the possibility of a larger WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST. What is Bush doing? He has ABANDONED HIS POST, LEFT THE SINKING SHIP, and FLED THE FIELD OF BATTLE. Much like during Katrina, his desertion is leading to more death, more destruction. The Republican leadership should be demanding more action NOW to prevent increased cross-border conflict! Instead, they continue to defend him. Again, we must endure the bizarro world of the far right.

Again and again, the American people are left to wonder how we got into this nightmare. Once more, we are forced to watch our leaders DO NOTHING. Oh well, I guess if the war spreads, and the Middle East and other parts of the world IGNITE in conflict, then at least George W. Bush and his supporters will be far away from the action. That's justice for you, and more of the same if you ask me.

George W. Bush, you are either EVIL or inept, incompetent, and inadequate to do the job. You have been one or the other for a long time now. Like any soldier who is incapacitated, mentally like you or physically like most, you should be removed immediately!

Unfortunately, we have to endure you for another 20+ days. We need to be rid of your bad luck NOW! You are a bad omen poisoning the world, and when the time comes, GOOD RIDDANCE TO BAD RUBBISH has never been more relevant. Oh yes, and God help the people of the Middle East, and the world.

Political Rant: Honor 9/11 But Move Beyond Bush

Hello Fellow Bloggers - The seventh anniversary of the 9/11 attacks should be remembered and honored, but we should also think about the subsequent years themselves - how we reacted.

Despite the heroism of unnamed thousands over those years that kept us safe, the Bush Administration's reaction to 9/11 is now tainted by lies, conspiracies, cover-ups, war-profiteering, murder, fear-mongering, law-breaking, kidnapping, rendition, torture, and worldwide corruption - to name just a few already investigated by legitimate sources worldwide.

The generous world reaction and good works of law enforcement have been overshadowed by places like Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib. Seven years of countless evil deeds highlights today's American schizophrenia. We're split in half, one side hating it and the other calling it a necessary evil. Personally I think it's nothing more than the acts of corrupt people, power-hungry politicians and war-profiteers at their worst.

That "necessary evil" forced my fellow Americans to break international agreements, break or stretch laws, use fear to scare people worldwide, torture people, listen to our phone calls, read our emails, disregard habeas corpus, disregard posi comitatus, and perform countless despicable things - against those foundations that make us all a just and free people.

We need to end our divisions, and move beyond what the Bush Administration has done to us all. Rants & Raves honors the lives of the men and women who died seven years ago. We acknowledge the heroes who fought the hijackers and crashed in Pennsylvania, as well as the brave rescue teams. We pray for them and hope we can all live up to their good example. We also pray that those in the Bush Administration who have broken the law, abused their positions of power, and committed evil acts, ultimately are dragged to justice.
