PREFACE: Worthington’s World is libertarian. I believe that people should be free autonomous directors of their own lives, constrained only by laws of a duly elected libertarian government.

George W. Bush, formerly a heavy drinking carouser who once publicly called Al Hunt, Washington bureau chief for the Wall St. Journal, who was dining with his wife, television correspondent Judy Woodruff and their four-year-old son in a Dallas Mexican restaurant “a no good fucking son of a bitch” (Christopher Andersen’s George and Laura: Portrait of an American Marriage, (Pg. 142), 2002, Harper Collins, N.Y.), was called upon by God to be President.
The redeemed sinner now speaks the language of the evangelicals. Under God’s guidance he has created much misery for the country: not only by enmeshing us in a foolish and wholly unnecessary war of aggression and stirring up a hornet’s nest of terrorists, but also by some of his outrageous political ploys. His inflated self-confidence in his own hunches that he believes come from God, has resulted in unrestrained spending while lowering taxes for the wealthy. These policies will eventually come home to roost. Of course, since Bush believes the Bible to be literally true, perhaps he knows that Christ will return before then.
More recently, according to the Associated Press, he is asking God to guide him in repairing the damage done by Katrina. Since Katrina was part of God’s intelligent design, it seems unlikely that God will get involved. As catastrophes go, Katrina was trivial compared to the Bush administration. This disaster has led to thousands of deaths and destroyed lives, hardly a trivial event. It would appear that the “intelligent” designer must have had some bad days! In any event it is inexplicable why the American public would elect such a stupid man to be President.
The scariest situation which puts the whole world at risk of a nuclear melt-down, is that vice president Cheney’s office requested that the United States Strategic Command (STRATCOM) plan for a massive nuclear air assault on Iran in event of another 9/11-type terrorist attack on the U.S. Note the sentence: “As in the case of Iraq, the response is not conditional on Iran being actually involved in the act of terrorism directed against the United States.” (The above is from an article by Robert C. Koehler in Liberal Opinion Week, Sept. 14, 2005, taken from the Aug 1 issue of The American Conservative)
Speaking of George W. Bush:
George W. Bush committed hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism (indicated in my blog).
George W. Bush did in fact commit innumerable hate crimes.
And I do solemnly swear by Almighty God that George W. Bush committed other hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism which I am not at liberty to mention.
Many people know what Bush did.
And many people will know what Bush did—even to the end of the world.
Bush was absolute evil.
Bush is now like a fugitive from justice.
Bush is a psychological prisoner.
Bush has a lot to worry about.
Bush can technically be prosecuted for hate crimes at any time.
In any case, Bush will go down in history in infamy.

I am not sure where I had read it before, but anyway, it is a linguistically excellent statement, and it goes kind of like this: “If only it were possible to ban invention that bottled up memory so it never got stale and faded.” Oh wait—off the top of my head—I think the quotation came from my Lower Merion High School yearbook.
