Don't Worry, George Has Your Back

The alleged President of the United States appeared on television tonight, again, playing the part of someone who is in charge. He spoke on the critical circumstances of the U.S. economy.
Not once did he accept any responsibility for the situation. Not once did he acknowledge that the deregulation of anything that resembles a business that has been Republican gospel for the 20 of the last 28 years that they have occupied the White House has directly lead to this moment. Not once did he lay the blame on any of his cabinet or staff, nor did he announce the resignations or firings of any members of his administration.
Instead of acting like an adult, he talked about this situation building for 10 years...when Bill Clinton was President! George blamed him for 9-11, why not this, too?
Instead of even pretending to be a leader, he still refuses to stipulate in the bailout that our money shall not be used to pay for any more golden parachutes for CEOs who made bad loans and paid themselves and their cronies so absurdly that they bankrupted their firms.
Instead of telling the truth and taking responsibility, the Decider passed the buck again. But at this point, no one in this country should be surprised at his course of inaction. This man has never been at fault in anything at any point in his entire life. Not when the businesses that his father had the Saudis pay for went belly up. Not when he spent his first 20 adult years addled on alcohol and cocaine. Not when he toughened Texas state law to give life sentences without the possiblity of parole to people who did exactly the same things he had done earlier in his life. Not when he stole the Presidential elections of 2000 and 2004 in direct violation of the U.S. Constitution that, in the greatest lie of a life full of them, he twice swore to God to protect and uphold. Not when he became the first U.S. President in our history to openly and proudly start a war against a smaller country that had done absolutely nothing to us whatsoever, and then declare, upon the Russian invasion of Georgia, that in the 21st Century, larger countries no longer have the right to invade smaller countries. Not when he hides his responsibility for the deaths of over 4,000 Americans in his Iraq war by barring any photographing of the flag-draped coffins being brought home. Not when he was asked in one of his extraordinarily rare press conferences if he could name a mistake he had made in office. And he couldn't.
This man is beneath contempt. He has ruined our standing in the world. He has discarded the moral authority of our country, both in the starting of his wars and his refusal to adhere to American policy that dated to George Washington himself, that we do not torture. He has ruined our economy. He is bankrupting our government with his wars, his cronyism after natural disaster, and now his paying off of his Pioneers in the bailout of the banking system that he deregulated so that it could become entirely corrupt.
I wrote two years ago that George W. Bush was the most reprehensible public figure of my lifetime. Little did I realize that he was just warming up at that time.
He closed his speech tonight by saying, "May God bless you." My prayer is a bit different: God help us. Deliver us from this evil, evil man and all of his sycophants.
