Outrage overload continues
You have to give George W. Bush credit, in a “My, that leech certainly sucks blood well,” sort of way. Just when you think he can’t get any lower, he proves you wrong.
Every single time.Before yesterday, I would have happily sworn on a first edition copy of Darwin’s On the Origin of the Species that Bush simply couldn’t act any more despicably in playing the “terrorism” card than he already has. Surely, I foolishly believed, there must be a saturation point for such things — a low that’s so low that it simply can’t be outdone.
Consider, after all, the dreary parade of his past dishonor.
Manipulating public fear of terrorism for political gain?
Been there, done that.
Falsely besmirching the patriotism of political opponents?
Oh, please! That’s just so 2002!
Using terrorism alerts to scare people when it’s politically helpful?
Just another day at the office.
Arguing that Americans must surrender their sacred freedoms in order to be safe from attack?
Does the phrase standard operating procedure mean anything to you?
Using the fear of terrorism to perpetrate a fraud on the nation leading to a disastrous war in Iraq?.............
