I have been coming here for a few months and I have resisted posting an anti-bush rant. But it is almost a requirement here. So here goes.
I watched his dead face and empty eyes on tv the other night. I heard him say the same old lies and come out with some new ones.
When Presidents get near the end of their terms they start worrying about a legacy. Can that be the source of the hideous worry lines that have appeared on his face ? Is he staying up late thinking that the world hates him and is out to get him? That he may go down in history as the man who triggered WWIII? That he is the worst president ever? I really hope so.
In recent months he has become very haggard and worn looking with the hunted,haunted look that Nixon used to get. With all his buddies gone or going the pressure must be crushing. I wonder if he is having the paranoid delusions that Nixon had. Maybe he is even now talking to the portrait of Ronald Reagan asking him "where oh where did I go wrong".
I can imagine him pacing the oval office wishing to god for a drink. Filled with anger and fear and suspicion. Muttering to himself. While every five minutes someone comes in and asks him a stupid question. Or sagging behind his desk during another meeting with high pressure people who are trying like hell to get what they can get out of it before the whole thing falls apart.
As for me I have little sympathy for his plight other than he will be the hated one while the people who put him where he is will keep on making bombs and bullets and literally making a killing.
As a rant this post is kind low key but I am more weary than outraged.
When and where will it all end. I am so tired and the road is so long.
