Mercurial

Or sort of. When Bush resorted to absolute "evil vs good" descriptions, and decided to assign theological categories to his comments and policies on world peace and politics, he made an excellent candidate for a Nobel peace prize. I understand that Ben (You will excuse the familiarity) seems a little bit apprehensive about a trip to London, but actually, the comment that draw my attention was that of Bush being so religious and sanctimonious here. Let us not think about separation of church and state. Not even about whether Mr. Hussein has WMD, whatever those might be, or explosives given to him by Mr. Rumsfeld, acting as an agent for Mr. Bush The Intelligent (No chance of confusing them). Trifle matter that of USA inability to pay for the war, afford this tax cut, and revive the economy.
What really bothers me is that self-righteous stance adopted by Citizen Bush, defending the same values of which he himself has made a mockery, such as freedom, democracy and equality. Now, though, as we prepare to enter this war ? because it will be all of us, willing or not ? we have to endure the Chairman's speeches, and accept his benevolent smile and wisdom.
It wouldn't surprise me to see a 50 feet poster of Bush's face.
