New Blog, Bush

My friend and I started a new blog. Find it here: http://perilsofreligion.blogspot.com/

I've been thinking over the past few days: I think it is possible for George W Bush to actually be a good President.

He did one thing that, while it may destroy America, it may also potentially save it. George W Bush singlehandedly exposed, for everyone to see, nearly everything that is wrong with America.

He brought, for us to witness, the very sludge that dammed our progressive streams. He brought into the light, our militarism, our greedy and socially irresponsible and exploitive aristocracy, our racist and religous bigotry and primitive thinking, and our bureaucratic ineptitude, one that ranks, as we have seen in the Katrina Aftermath that still continues, with the Bolshevik bureaucracy. He exposed our corruption, our xenophobia, our psychotic fear of acceptance of differences, our disdain for immigrants, our epidemic ofperverse conformity, collectivism, and the putrid stench of groupthink.

One might say, "This is not America!" But it is. We are seeing ourselves. For eight years, everything that we denied about ourselves will have tyrannized over us. What we now need to do, if America is to survive as a superpower, is gather the will (political and individual) to clean up this mud and refuse that holds our livelihoods and our once-proud nation hostage.

If we do not fight back, if the best of us is conquered by the worst of us, well, thats for a science fiction author to describe...
