The Problem with Dubya

[percussivemadness]

So, I`m reading through some old favourite blogs, I came across this one written by a Brit, from June 2005, I thought over 2 years later I`d share it with you

The Problem with Dubya

A recent American reporter asked "why does the rest of the world hate George Bush so much?" Its a fair question and I thought I`d answer it from my perspective being a non-American.I abhor George Bush`s need for affirmation at any cost.He doesn`t make policy based on what is good for anyone, he makes policy based on what makes him feel good.

..........

I detest how George Bush has allowed the name of God to be hijacked by the radical right to force through extremist judges and even more extreme social policies, whilst at the same time accusing
people like me who disagree with them of being "un-christian".

.........

I despise his abuse of 911 and the deaths of over 3000 people and turning a great human tragedy into a political propaganda tool for his party.I am sickened when he tells people "God speaks to him", Jesus said God is Love, Bush`s God preaches death and destruction.I abhor his abuse of the environment, his willful and complicit neglect in his allowance of his industry financiers to rape the earth of its natural resources in pursuit of profit.I am sickened by his arrogance and lack of respect for other human beings.

..........

That is why people detest George Bush, because he abuses his position as president and allows the insidious cancer of tyranny to destroy America, a beacon of light for so many years for the rest of the world, and in doing so makes us question a basic foundation of our beliefs, that is if the American People don`t want to fight for their country, what the hell have we been dreaming about?

But do I hate George Bush? No, I have no time for hate, and even if I did, I wouldn`t waste such a powerful emotion on an insignificant non-entity like George Bush..
