What does Bush inherit?
If you've not had a chance to see a movie called "Inherit the Wind", starring Spencer Tracy, Frederic March and Gene Kelly (yes, he can act too!), it's worth a look.
Not just to get a glimpse of how our world once was, but foreshadowing of where the world may well be heading; at least in Kansas.
Men of God have long been considered in the earlier centuries as people to be revered, to be respected and acknowledged as gifted, as knowing more than their fellow man. Men who claimed to speak directly to God were considered superior, above all others, special, priviledged, or a gaggle of other things. John Smith long, long ago was respected and looked upon with awe, because he had the temerity to damn our enternal souls to hell for touching our wangs or our hoo-hahs.
How the times have changed. If a man dares to speak the word of God these days, it is best if he does it in a church, surrounded by his congregation. And if he claims to have actually TALKED to God, people seem uneasy, a little riled, perhaps even amused. They allow him his awesome adventure, but you can be assured that once the man is out of sight, he is ridiculed like the village idiot.
Do you ever wonder why Dr. James Dobson or Pat Robertson still have a voice, and such a strong following? Simple. They are men of God with a large congregation. They teach the word of God, they revel in his glory, and oh yes, they damn anyone who dares to think likewise.
Why does Bush think HE'S a man of God? He claims he's talked with God a lot, that the almighty set him on the right path, to lead the nation to peace and tranquility. Ever wonder, if God has SUCH a liking of Bush, and seems to even FAVOR him -- why is Bush such a total fuck-up?
Let's face it! Most of the country can't stand this man. No matter WHAT he tries, he faces strong opposition. The whole world fears him because of his idiocy. He's failed at everything he's ever done in his life. Sure, he became president, and not many people can do that in their lives. But then, not many people are like Bush. The simpleton of Connecticutt; the displaced, mis-read Texas cowboy-wannabe. The childish boy who refuses to grow up, to accept defeat, to accept the fact he might be dead wrong about some things. Who's had an addiction to cocaine, and an ongoing battle with alcohol. Who has single-handedly caused the deaths of at least 75,000 innocent people, by engaging war illegally in a country that had done us no harm.
Oh yes, hail God's chosen one. Hail a true man of God.
Are you listening, Kansas? Your need to live in the past is going to destroy your future. God doesn't want you to hate, or disrespect, or judge. God wants you to LOVE THY NEIGHBOR. If God truly allows you degenerates to live on this little blue ball, get one thing through those thick, fucking-stupid heads of yours: GOD ALLOWS US ALL TO LIVE HERE. PERIOD.
No matter if they believe in God, or evolution.
