Well McGrath, it sounds to me like your hatred is blinding you to the man, while leading you towards an unquestioning acceptance of the anti-Bush hysteria your liberal beliefs insist are true.

Look, I'm all for Bush whacking the politician. I'm even for Bush whacking the man. But I'm not so blinded by hate and prejudice of people with radically different political and worldviews than my own, to think they have no redeeming qualities as human beings.

God, if I'm ever that bigoted I hope someone will shoot me, and end my cynical misery.

But that will be the legacy of this US election, to be sure. Hatred of Bush that got so out of line that people deluded themselves into believing that he was worse than every other right wing Republican president in history. Which isn't even remotely the case. Hell, what Bush/Cheney/Rove has done was merely dot the i's and cross the t's of the American plutocracy's revolution at the lobbyist trough and ballot box, that was begun in the Cold War Eisenhower administration, and improved upon by Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush I, and Clinton before him.

The bankrupting of the American political system has been in the works since the Cold War. The war on terror is no different than the war on communism. Homeland Security is no different than the House UnAmerican Activities Committee. Saddam no worse than the Shah of Iran.

Nothing is new here. Except that the shit that hit the working class and poor in the wake of the repressive and regressive right wing "Morning in America" is finally catching up with and hitting white middle class liberals. Hence their roaring their terrible roars about how unfair it all is TO THEM.
