Bush`s Moral People....I want to get a good look at you unless you`re busy in Las Vegas with Bill Bennett or tied up at home making one of your God Hates Faggots signs. Really...who are you and why the bronzed pedestals? Can corporate media be right in saying that you Red-State-Of-Minders seem to have God on your side while us Blue-State-Of-Minders just languish in sin and anti-Americanism? Enough to scare a Blue Person into a false confession.
I`ve been waiting for your piety to drive you into the streets. No, not so you could join the Jugglers for Jesus outside Mrs. Schiavo`s hospice...but maybe for a massive display of outrage outside Walter Reed. Maybe a mission to the Darfur region of Sudan or a sit-in at one of the water wells in Ghana where women walk three miles to beg for a cup of (privatized) water. If you don`t own an atlas or don`t really like traveling outside your country, maybe you could all go to Ohio and try to figure out why Black Americans seem to always get the malfunctioning voting machines...if they get them at all. The devil is in the details somewhere out there in Ohio. Too political for you? No problem. Get yourself some calculators and see what kind of mess we`re leaving to the children you care so much about.
I think you folks are screwed up. Janet Jackson`s breast seemed to throw you into hysterics, but those hooded humans in our World Famous Torture Centers...well...DON`T QUESTION AUTHORITY, right? Bush asked God, God answered "yes" and the rest is history. This is real freaky to me. Real, real freaky. I don`t get the "erring on the side of life" part, like on Governor Bush`s busy little death row. Also, why didn`t we "err on the side of life" when it came to killing all those Iraqi civilians? Something doesn`t add up.
Some giant red thing is festering in my country. It`s starting to look life-threatening and dangerous. It can drag a gay man to death behind a pick up truck and get Ann Coulter speaking engagements in our colleges. It can send a posse to the Mexican border or call for a frothing "Nuke `Em" radio rant. It can force taxpayers to pay for a fake "town hall" meeting with President Bush even though opposition is excluded. It can give VP Cheney a set of Iraqi oilfield maps long, long before we were told that Saddam had WMDs. Come on. Stand up and be counted. Tell us again about your goodness and light.
