You're a Monster, Mr. President

But just when you think he can't go any lower, President Bush always finds a way to outdo himself. Today, in the wake of the incomprehensible slaughter of thirty-three students at Virginia Tech, the president sent out his spokeswoman to - first and foremost - defend the killer.

I'm speechless!!! Appalled, repulsed, sickened. I have friends on college campuses, children of friends on college campuses, I attend classes on a college campus; and while this may have happened at Virginia Tech, it doesn’t by any stretch of the imagination mean that other college campuses are in any way immune.

As for the obtuse piece of work that is our so called president, how a man who is supposed to be a leader can be so stone cold hearted is beyond me. Is it that we simply expect more than he's capable of? Is it that we’ve forgotten his benevolence during the numerous preceding disasters? Is it that we believe – or want to believe – that the man has some semblance of compassion, if only a façade? Or maybe it’s that we don’t believe he can sink to yet a greater lower. Whatever the case may be, it almost surprising me that we’re forever stunned when this callous ass we call a president bestows upon us yet another of his narcissistic condolences.

Another incessantly astonishing thing to me is that after all the mass destruction, death, and deceit this man is and represents, there are interminable Bush disciples out there that would defend him until the bitter end and still beyond. Unbelievable! Talk about waking up and smelling the coffee, how about some smelling salts!

My heart goes out to all of Virginia Tech and all that are personally touched by this horrific tragedy.
