The Rant
Burn in hell, Mr. President
By DOUG THOMPSON
Nov 14, 2005, 07:51

My first reaction when I read the transcript of President George W. Bush’s
Veteran’s Day speech was anger. No, not anger. Rage. Blind rage.

How dare he, I thought. Not even the lowest, scum-sucking son of a bitch in
politics would stoop to using a day to honor those who served to instead
promote his lies-based, illegal, immoral exercise in mass murder called the
invasion of Iraq.

Yes he would. George W. Bush is a pathetic, pitiless scrap of sub-human
trash that lacks any shred of decency or morality. So why wouldn’t he
desecrate the memories of those who serve our nation?

As a journalist, I’m expected to be dispassionate about events and those
who shape them. But I cannot be so when it comes to Bush. He’s a liar and a
traitor to the oath he swore when he became President of the country he now
works so hard to destroy.

Bush is much, much more than just a bad president. He is a genuinely evil
man, a raving lunatic who cannot face the fact that his insane policies
have destroyed a once-great country called America. George Bush’s America
is an arrogant bully distrusted by its allies, hated by most of the rest of
the world and divided internally by his divisive, duplicitous actions.

I can no longer regard this maniac with journalistic dispassion. I may be a
journalist but I’m an American first and, as an American, I cannot stand
silent as a truly evil man destroys the country I love.

Polls show most Americans share my distrust of Bush. We all see him for
what he is – a dishonest, opportunistic political beast who lets nothing
stand in the way of his unbridled lust for power. He speaks of God at one
moment and calls those who dare disagree with him “motherfuckersö the next.
He has, without blinking an eye, sent more than 2,000 American military men
and women, along with countless thousands of Iraqi civilians, to their
deaths in a senseless invasion based on manufactured “evidenceö and
outright lies.

Then he has the gall to stand up on the day we set aside to honor those who
served and continue to promote his lies and call those who see the truth
traitors who aid the enemy.

Sorry George. Your lies don’t play here or with the majority of American
citizens. It is you who has sold out your country, who is a traitor and who
has committed treason against your office, your country and humanity.

God may one day forgive you for your sins but I cannot. Neither can the
wives, husbands, parents and relatives of those you sent to die in your
dirty little war. Neither can memories of those who served, those we
honored on Veterans Day and those whose memory you so callously dishonored
with your propagandist pap.

On second thought, I’m not even sure God can forgive you for what you have
done. You have lied and you have killed and those are sins that even an
understanding God may have trouble forgiving.

If there is justice in the afterlife, you will stand and face that justice
for your sins. And may you burn in hell for them.

AMEN!  To which I would add, the enablers of the cowardly little shit would
answer for their perfidy in the afterlife as well.
