Did W's daddy just give him a shot.
"Yet, if upon reflecting on the hopeful events leading to October 3rd, I hope future generations might look to that period as a time when mankind got it right – when we rose above the recriminations of the past, and broke a chain of human discontent, and resolved our affairs not with rifles, but with reason. For once, mankind did not fall back on a primeval reflex for violence, but instead asserted the “better angels” of human nature."

2. Funny, the German people seem to be looking away from the US now
Some have compared our government to the 3rd Reich in Germany.

I wouldn't go that far, though. True, it may exhibit proto-fascist tendencies, but this isn't Germany 1936 either.

3. another big bullshit line from Bush 1

"there is no disputing that all war, all bloodshed, is born of human failure."

Well, the STATEMENT is true enough

But it sure ain't in the Bush Gang's playbook . . .

4. That's what I think also, the Bush family never speak what they are
...thinking, they use words on the masses as one would use cattle prods to lead livestock to their ultimate destiny at the slaughter houses
