WAKE UP AMERICA: George W. Bush is not evil. The terrorists are.

July 18th, 2007 | by admin |

I’ve had it up to here! I’ve had enough of it! I can’t stand it any longer, I’m going to have to speak my mind…

President George W. Bush is not Satan. He’s not the Anti-Christ. He’s not the man completely void of all morality that the left-wing nutballs continue to paint him as. The media jumps right on board, and the general public falls in line because they are hammered with the message over and over and over again. Oh and the man is not an idiot either. (Another common message portrayed in pop culture.) I’m going to prove to you that the assumption that Bush is an evil man is absolutely wrong. Get ready, buckle your seat belts!

In order for President Bush to be a hateful man who does not care one iota about our men and women dying in Iraq he’d have to be void of all morality. That’s where that sort of thinking stops dead in its tracks. An evil man without any respect for life would not put pro-life judges on the bench of the Supreme Court. An evil man without morals would not fight for faith based initiatives to help Christian and other religious charities. An evil man would not fight for families as G.W. has done by trying to get Congress to pass a constitutional amendment to define marriage as between one man and one woman. I can come up with plenty of other examples but that should suffice. The man is not completely without morals, and that is what it would take for someone to use the power of commanding our troops as some sort of political game or personal profiteering venture.

Do I agree with everything the man has done? No. I think it’s pretty obvious that he hasn’t gotten the job done with securing our borders and dealing with illegal immigration. Do I think he may be influenced by big business? Yes, and I don’t know to what extent and it is frustrating. Do I think he is the ultimate blood thirsty, super villain, killer that everyone paints him out to be? Absolutely not. As with anyone in office there is good he has done and there is bad.

I’m getting sick of the vitriolic hatred though. It’s unwarranted, and it actually does more harm than good. Have the people that shout this hatred ever thought about the message this sends to our enemies? They eat it up, and not only that, it emboldens them to continue the fight. American need to quit shooting itself in the foot if freedom and democracy are to reign. Does someone like the first Muslim in Congress, Representative Keith Ellison even think before he opens his mouth? Does he think about the kind of clout and influence he has? Does he not realize the responsibility that comes whether he likes it or not by someone in his position? Instead he compares Bush with Hitler. Wake up America, George W. Bush is not the enemy. The terrorists are.

    I absolutely agree that Bush is a mixture of both good and evil. I don’t think there is any human who is pure good or pure evil. But I disagree that a person would have to be completely without morals to use the military as a political game or for financial gain. Many throughout history have done exactly that, yet as we’ve already established, they were not entirely evil. And certainly those things that you have identified as Bush’s “moral” activities could have been done out of motives other than pure goodness, such as appealing to the Christian wing of the Republican party.

    Do you think Hitler was completely without morals? Do you think that Kim Jong Il is completely without morals? Do you think that Sadaam Hussein was completely without morals? I do. How else could you try to exterminate an entire race, starve your countrymen to death, and wipe out hundreds of thousands of those who dissent to your rule?

    Bush is mentioned in the same sentence with dictators like Hitler and I’m saying that is insane. The things Bush did such as putting pro-life judges on the bench were done after his re-election. He had no need to please the Christian right for political gain…

    Let me hear some stories about the three dictators I named. Tell me some good they did in their country that mimics what President Bush has done domestically and internationally. As far as I know you won’t find anything, so good luck.

    I’m tired of him being portrayed as a murderous thug and a war criminal. The man seems strong in his convictions and seems to have a desire to do what is right when it comes to fighting the War on Terror.

    I don’t want to be labeled as pro-Hitler, so I’ll be cautious here. Hitler received decorations for bravery twice during World War 1 & was noted for his uncomplaining attitude, uncommon among his colleagues. During the Third Reich, Germany saw its greatest expansion of industrial production and civil improvement. The unemployment rate was reduced substantially. Dozens of dams, highways, railroads and civil works were constructed. Hitler emphasized the importance of family life, and encouraged mothers not to work outside the home, but to spend their time raising their children. Laborers and farmers saw an increase in their standard of living. Hitler also promoted promoted aggressive anti-smoking campaigns throughout Germany. This doesn’t by any means indicate that Hitler was a good person; I just mean to point out that no one is pure good or pure evil (although, I must admit, Hitler seems to be heavily weighted to the evil (or more likely, insane) side.
