Bush is a sick twisted blood-thirsty dry-drunk former cheerleading frat-boy who took joy as a child in blowing up frogs. What more do you need to know?
His latest press conference really was the nadir of his entire presidency. I’m serious. I’ve never been more humiliated at our President, nor have I been more convinced that he is a sociopath.
He has absolutely NOTHING to say about civilian casualties in Lebanon, and says that the root cause of those casualties is Hizbollah, through Syria, with some Iranian involvement. What the fuck does Israel bombing a housing complex in Beirut have to do with Hizbollah? The answer? Nothing.
And then he has the unprecedented gall to say the following:
[paraphrased for lack of a link] Israel should be careful not to bring down the Lebanese government. It’s very important that their government doesn’t fall.
Well, what the fuck government can withstand having its airport destroyed, its lighthouses obliterated, its housing complexes indiscriminately blown to bits, it’s country invaded, and still have any credibility? If you can’t protect your citizens’ lives and livelihood, then what good are you?
Bush is allowing Israel to take Lebanon apart bloody piece by bloody fucking piece, all while pretending to give a shit about the Lebanese democracy. I don’t think I have ever before seen cynicism and immorality conjoined with stupidity in quite this way.
Al Gore is in Philly tonight. I hope to see him at Drinking Liberally. Maybe he can explain how we can advance freedom by condoning the destruction of Bush’s sole accomplishment in office: a democracy in Lebanon.
Beastly morons.
