Read this and weep. It’s… astonishing. This, here, this is why so many people have an absolute antipathy towards George W. Bush. This is why they don’t like him. It’s because he absolutely reeks of absolute, total corruption; he is the most tainted president since Nixon, and maybe not even as bad as Nixon. His administration of the country seems, now that news like this is starting to leak out, like something out of a dystopian future, something vaguely smelling of rot.

In Canada, the Liberals were trashed in an election because a few bad apples stole a billion dollars or so. In America, your leader has started an unjust war, trampled underfoot your precious rights time and again, done irreparable damage to international relations, and last but not least has always toed that line–or bounded right over it–that divides what is right from what is wrong, and you people elected him and his cronies twice.

In scripture–if you’ll allow me to veer off course for a moment–justice is a sort of holy grail. It’s one of the Israelite nation’s goals, and by extension ours, as well.

You have to ask yourself if the president you elected is anything more than an embarrassment to America, Christianity, and the ideas of liberty and justice, those bedrocks that America would believe it was built upon.

I think the answer is obvious.
