State of the Union
So what's the state of the union? It's pretty sad I'd have to say. And I'm not referring to the countless scandals by politicians. I'm referring to the public.
The other day I was listening to National Public Radio on my way home from work like I always do. It's either that, or rap or country. So that day they were having a segment on Texan women and their view on President Bush. They interviewed one woman and had the following conversation:
NPR - Do you support President Bush despite all that's happened with Katrina and the problems in the Middle East?
Lady - Yes, absolutely. I've been a strong supporter of Bush even through 9-11. It's important that we support our president and that we stick together.
NPR - How do you think he's handled the War on Terror and all that's going on in the Middle East?
Lady - I think he's doing the right thing.
NPR - Why is that?
Lady - Because he's a good Christian and because of that he's doing the right thing. I believe he prays before making any big important decisions and because of that I will continue to support him.
About one month earlier, a similar conversation occurred between NPR and a woman from Nebraska.
NPR - What do you think about Bush's decision to allow a foreign company control of 6 U.S. ports?
Lady - I think he's doing the right thing.
NPR - Why is that?
Lady - Because. He's Christian.
The fact that Bush is Christian or that people believe he is Chrisitian isn't the issue. But can you objectively look at this conversation and see any logic in it? At least back up that statement with some fact or statistic or SOMETHING. Let's take it one step further.
NPR - Do you think Bush is doing the right thing?
Person - Yes, absolutely.
NPR - Why do you think that?
Person - Because God himself has chosen Bush to be president. He was fated to be President. It's like the second coming. Bush can do no wrong because God is on his side.
Let's switch gears. If we went back in time about 70 years and asked someone in Germany what they thought about Hitler and did a little substitution with the names, here is how their conversation would go.
NPR - Do you agree with what Hitler is doing?
Person - I think he's doing the right thing.
NPR - Why is that?
Person - Because. He's a Nazi.
Now, how is this conversation about Hitler any different than the Bush conversation? In any case, the fact that Bush's approval rating hit an all-time low of 34% doesn't mean a thing. If elections were held tomorrow, he'd still win. Because he's a Christian. Now don't misunderstand me. I'm not saying that Bush is an evil Nazi. He may very well be, but I'm not saying that. What I am saying, though, is that the Americans who supports Bush have an IQ that amounts to no more than their age.
And just in case nobody realizes this, Democrats/liberals are NOT Christians. All Democrats are demonic: they burn Bibles and crosses, they steal babies, they drink the blood of their enemies, they make pagan ritualistic sacrifices. It's true. I've seen it.

If I were you, I'd delete this entry.
That's exactly what they want you to do! To silence those who are willing and brave or foolish enough to openly criticize. They want to stop people from thinking for themselves, to listen and to have an open mind. They want us to go along with the masses like unthinking soldiers who are just following orders blindly.
