Bush awaits judgment of voters - Gotta love that headline
Just wish it read Bush awaits judgment for his crimes.

PENSACOLA, Fla., Nov. 6 - These are trying times for President Bush. On the last day of the last campaign that will affect him directly, he came here as a favor to his brother on behalf of the Republican candidate for governor. Only the Republican candidate for governor skipped the event. Too busy, he said, to be with the president of the United States.

So it goes these days. Bush shrugged it off and delivered a robust speech, firing up a crowd of Republicans and defiantly predicting victory. Any doubt he may harbor, he kept to himself. Any feelings of regret are locked tight inside. The rest of the world may see an unpopular president in the midst of an unpopular war. But Bush soldiers on. He does not publicly stew as other presidents have. He powers through event after event as if he were still the leader the country rallied behind after Sept. 11, 2001

To his critics, it sometimes seems as if Bush lives in his own world, oblivious or unwilling to accept the shifting reality around him. His is a world of absolutes. "I view this as a struggle of good versus evil," he said the other day about the war with terrorists. To Bush, that is strength, not weakness -- the certitude of conviction, the power of principle. He's "the decider" in a business afflicted by equivocation and thumb-sucking.

1. The dumb shit couldn't "decide" his way out of a ....
bathroom stall. Yes, georgie, we're passing judgment on YOU today and you're NOT going to like what you see. Not that you care. You'll try everything within and without your power to subvert Democracy anyway. Only NOW there's going to be someone to STOP your Imperial ass. There's finally going to be some oversight of your dismantling of the Constitution.

Your party is over, georgie. The big, bad Democrats are going to hold you accountable for your actions and, you being a man who hates to be told NO, are going to stew, fret and seethe yourself into an early grave because of it. :woohoo: Now THAT will be a day of rejoicing!

2. "Good vs evil"?
Excuse me, fuckface. Which is more evil:

A slow pullout of the debacle you created or continuing to send our sons and daughters to die in a sand furnace along with countless Iraqis all for the purpose of winning this occupation, or finding weapons, or staying the course, or whatever asshole reason you can come up with for being in this hellhole?

Fiscal responsibility or a $30,000 bill to every breathing citizen in this country for your whiskey-throttle spend-o-rama?

An independent investigation of 9/11 to provide answers to the families or promoting and keeping the same warmonger oil-bathers that were asleep at the wheel on that day?

A benevolent economic model to benefit all citizens or enacting enabling policies that send all of the much-needed tax money to one ruling class so they can sit on it and offshore all of the good jobs?

Striving for peace and diplomacy or more tax dollars for the military and future occupations of sovereign nations?

You stupid shit. It's OVER. And not a DAMNED day too soon.

3. Judgment: as guilty as Saddam
Who's killed more Iraqis? Bush or Saddam?

Who's killed more Americans? Bush or Saddam?
