Attytood: President Bush committed political treason today

I've seen a lot of sad things in American politics in my lifetime -- the resignation of a president who became a national disgrace after he oversaw a campaign of break-ins and cover-ups, another who circumvented the Constitution to trade arms for hostages, and yet is now hailed as national hero. And those paled to what we have seen in the last seven years -- flagrant disregard for the Constitution, the launching of a "pre-emptive" war on false pretenses, and discussions about torture and other shocking abuses inside the White House inner sanctum.

But now it's come to this: A new low that I never imagined was even possible.

President Bush went on foreign soil today, and committed what I consider an act of political treason: Comparing the candidate of the U.S. opposition party to appeasers of Nazi Germany -- in the very nation that was carved out from the horrific calamity of the Holocaust. Bush's bizarre and beyond-appropriate detour into American presidential politics took place in the middle of what should have been an occasion for joy: A speech to Israeli's Knesset to honor that nation's 60th birthday...

1. And he used a quaint tactic of the anti-Semitic label

2. The guy is a F***ing moron, what more can one say? And McCain...

agrees with what Bush has done, so what does that say about McCain?

5. He's not a moron

The late Molly Ivins, who actually met Bush and studied him closely, said that Chimpy isn't stupid as such but he is intellectually lazy and completely uncurious. To that definition, I'll add "evil". His administration hasn't been the worst in history by accident, it has been a quite deliberate process and with a couple of exceptions (Social Security privatisation, Dems taking Congress in 2006), he and his handlers have got everythign they wanted.

3. That POS commits treason

every time he opens that disgusting mouth of his. If there is any doubt about the worst President in the history of this country he's wiping it away every time he staggers out of bed.

I absolutely detest this asshole and anyone that would associate with him, just makes me sick to my stomach to look at him. Whoever wins the White House this November is going to have one hell of a disinfecting job to do.

4. Yeah. With Georgie, it ain't nothing new.

6. He comes from a family of traitors -- what do you expect?

I consider all Republicans to be traitors -- until proven otherwise.

Anyone who votes for or supports this criminal enterprise is a traitor.

7. By 'political' treason....you mean just plain ol' treason, right?

This fuckwit's grandfather actually profited from the Auschwitz deathcamp:

And he's lecturing ANYBODY on Nazi appeasement? That's rich.

Can we impeach this twat already?
