People voted for Bush in 2004 under the illusion that he's good at protecting us from further terrorist attacks, when the fact is that we were attacked on continental soil for the first time in history by someone other than the British because an imbecile named BUSH was sitting with his thumb up his ass.
People voted for Bush under the illusion that he's saving them tax money, when the reality is that the two hundred dollar tax break they got is peanuts compared to the amount of money & convenience it's causing them to lose in the long run due to the loss of beneficial tax-paid programs.
People voted for Bush under the illusion that he's a God loving Christian, when the reality is that he only turned to God when he realized how the illusion of being religious could result in tremendous political self-gain. Funny how some of these born-agains all of a sudden discover God when they need to jump start their political career.
People who voted for Bush are under the illusion the economy is recovering because of the real estate boom that's a result of lower mortgage rates, when the reality is that Americans are more in debt than ever partly because of this, and to buy a new home it's going to cost you 50% more (that you'll have to borrow) than it did in 1998....not to mention that the country is more in debt than ever with an out-of-control deficit of $7.5 trillion, which is worth a whopping $120,000 for every family of four in this country!
The most remarkable illusion with these same people is that Americans are safe under this clown, when the reality is that over 1700 Americans have been killed and more than 10,000 additional Americans have been injured since he declared victory a couple years ago, and more are dying or getting maimed each and every day.
Because Bush is causing Americans (and so many Iraqi civilians, too) to die on a daily basis 6000 miles away from home...where we can't experience for ourselves the deafening sounds of bombs that blast limbs off of people, or see the horrific fires and mass destruction with our own eyes that literally peals the burnt skin off people's bodies...I guess it's only an illusion that anyone is dying or getting hurt at all.

1. Yep. If you can't see it, it ain't happening. No corpses. No body bags. |

No coffins. It's all good! Anyone who says otherwise hates America.
