Bush to Nation: Fuck You

By intervening in the sentencing of Scooty Libby, George W. Bush has finally demonstrated the deep contempt he holds for the American people, the Constitution, and the Judicial system.

This decision was made not in the interest of justice but out of self-interest to protect a corrupt administration, a failed presidency, and a fading legacy.

Bush essentially has told the American people that he and his friends are above the law. And that he doesn't serve the American people, but rather his own friends and cronies. Does Bush intend to review all sentences and reverse any that he deems harsh?

Bush similarly showed contempt for the country, its people, and its laws when he supported Dick Cheney's ludicrous claim that the Vice President is not a part of the Executive Branch.

This man's poor judgment and leadership already have led this country into an ill-advised quagmire in Iraq that was based on personal animosity, false pretenses and misleading information given to the American people. His actions have led to instability in the Middle East, the emboldenment of Iran, and inflamed anti-Americanism and terrorist activity around the world, not to mention the deaths of thousands of American service people.

Assuming we survive this man has done, there already is consensus that George W. Bush will go down as the worst president in American history. When he ends his presidency, he'll leave a country in worse peril than when he arrived. He does not even have the decency to make any substantive attempt clean up the mess; rather, he obviously has chosen to play out the clock so that whoever follows him will be left holding the bag to clean up the mess created by his incompetency and mismanagement.

Have you no sense of decency, sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency?
