"The America I know is a compassionate country."
From his interview with Arab television: "The America I know is a compassionate country."

Well no shit, George.

The America you know forgives you, again and again, of felonies, dereliction of duty and high treason.

The America you know is peopled by Poppy's secret teams, Saudi patrons and robber barons.

The America you know was paid for with Bush Nazi blood money and CIA drug proceeds.

The America you know is a candy store built of Skull and Bones.

Tell us more about the America you know.

4. America is very compassionate upon the privileged.
What's America look like from his Crawford play-ranch?

5. The America Bush knows
mocks women like Carla Faye Tucker as they send them to be executed. I wonder if that story has made it into the Arab newspapers?

7. ...and the America Bush knows
has to have tickets for admission.

He knows *shit* about America - he's terrified to actually be exposed to it.

6. And did he smile mistily and tap his own chest ....
.... the way he does when he is mentally substituting himself for "country"? (I've noticed him do that on other occasions and it creeps me out. Kind of like a 21st-century spin on "l'etat, c'est moi")
