Secret Weapon

For the next six months, political campaigning will rage across the American scene. There are plenty of issues to campaign about. We are deeply enmeshed in a nest of unpopular, unilateral foreign wars of aggression in the Middle East. Home mortgage foreclosures are skyrocketing and property values are plummeting. Energy and commodity prices are rising at unprecedented rates as our currency is being inflated into utter worthlessness by the Federal Reserve Bank. The economy is contracting. Real incomes for most Americans have been shrinking even more rapidly than before. State and Federal government are experiencing huge shortfalls in tax receipts, just as required expenditures are rapidly increasing, causing record budget deficits. Half of the population has no access to health care, other than to pay cash. It has become clear that at least a third of White Americans remain unregenerate ethnocentric racists, despite decades of attempts to heal the rifts in our society. Religious fundamentalists seek to force their grossly superstitious beliefs about a myriad of moral, scientific, and historical subjects upon the mainstream of society through force of civil law.

Agents for change in America, whether they be Republican, Democrat or anywhere in between, will have a secret weapon when putting forward their agenda. That weapon is President George W. Bush. He is on the wrong side of every issue. He may not be the worst President in history but he has the lowest approval rating ever. He is also absolutely incapable of admitting a mistake and unable to keep his mouth shut in rationalizing his incredibly stupid decisions in leading the executive branch for the last eight years. If that isn't enough, the level of hypocrisy in his personal life, has not been seen in this country since before the demise of Aimee Semple McPherson.

George Bush is the Scion of a wealthy family that clearly tapped out genetically a couple of generations ago. Never an intellectual or even an adequate student, he has the kind of academic degrees given by Ivy League institutions to the barely literate sons and daughters of American Brahmans. He is a physical coward who shirked his duty to defend his nation in a conflict he says he very strongly believed in, during his youth and instead, indulged in a decades long binge of golf, substance abuse, joblessness and furtive homosexuality, only to emerge in late middle age as an American paragon. He pretends to strong traditional moral, religious and political values, even as he has destroyed our country and sent our youth to die by the thousands in foreign hellholes, a boot licking catamite, to the benefit of his Saudi masters. He will not be satisfied until every working American lives in hopeless, third world poverty. He will not be satisfied until the sons and daughters of every working American family can be bought and sold as chattel, for pocket change, by foreign travelers in seaport knockshops. He will not be satisfied until democracy is ground into the dust of our polluted and fallow fields. He will not be satisfied until each one of his fellow countrymen is become as depraved and demeaned as he himself is.
