America, the Fearful - Authored by quivering weasels in the GOP
Edited on Thu Nov-01-07 03:13 PM by NYCALIZ
In a mere 6 years, the GOP and the Bush administration have turned America, the home of the Free and the Brave into America the Fearful.

They did not do this by pure accident. It was a strategy. I'd argue it was a strategy that arose from their own weak and fear ridden psyches.

They who have been protected from life by trust funds, secret service agents, lobbyist with slush funds, and mysterious Saudi investors willing to buy failed companies for a multiple of their actual worth, make decisions out of their own fear and weakness.

We can joke about George Bush, littlest President trying to compete with his own father, but its less likely to be a joke and more likely to be overcompensation by the spoiled son of two parents who didn't have the time or inclination to actually parent him. Bury a daughter in the morning, play golf in the afternoon. Isn't that what all 'normal families' would do?

They cannot accept their own failures and take responsibility for their own actions because they've never become responsible adults. They've been catered to, sucked up to, and otherwise been led to believe their own perfection and infallibility.
