If America is to survive as a nation built upon bedrock principles, if it is to withstand the hurricanes of fear, prejudice and hysteria, then it is time to be less forgiving of those, like Bush and his minions (both inside and outside government), who exploit such hurricanes for their own aggrandizement. It is time to be more forgiving to the victims who are unjustly scapegoated, persecuted and abused in this milieu of hatred and hypocrisy. But most of all, it is time to be more insistent that fundamental morality be part of the political process at the inception of any proposed idea, policy or legislation, not simply a “Gee whiz, I’m so sorry” afterthought.

Recently American politicians from both sides of the spectrum criticized Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez (articles) for asserting that George W. Bush is the devil. But was he really so wrong? From the moment Bush corruptly stole the 2000 election, in a ploy that essentially destroyed American democracy, he has spread an infectious evil throughout the United States and the world, a profligate evil that once again blinded a nation into sending the poor off to die in an unjust war so the rich could get richer, a numbing evil that has deadened the heart and soul of everything and everybody he has touched, a sadistic evil that revels in mendacity, venality, hated, cruelty and death, an ignominious evil that believes power can only be gained by appealing to the worst in human nature. So if George W. Bush and his minions are not inspired and controlled by Satan, they’re certainly doing a damn good imitation.
