george bush & Charles Manson never actually killed anyone.

[mopaul]

all these years Charles Manson has sat in prison for murders he didn't actually commit. apparently he simply ordered others to murder innocent people, and they did, even though they didn't really have to, they did. and Manson is in prison till he dies for his part in the murders.

same with george bush, never actually murdered anyone, he simply orders others to murder, only his body count far exceeds Manson's wildest dreams. georgey has ordered the murders of over one hundred thousand people, a figure so large as to be mentally unbelievable.

Charles Manson payed for his murders, bush probably never will. george is respectable and acceptable, Charlie wasn't.

1. Flower children were more of a threat than certain brown-skinned people.

That's why Manson needs to die and * to live forever.

2. Charlie did kill

people, though the murders he was convicted of were committed by others. Course, he did break in the LaBianco house and tie them up. A better example may have been Adolph Heatlump, who like George, never killed anyone.

8. hitler fought in world war one

in actual battles apparently, more than george ever will

9. I stand corrected.

George did play a soldier in his photo-op, when he wore the Power Rangers outfit. Does that count?

3. sorry george is NOT....

respectable and acceptable!

4. God only knows what and who Bu$h strafed in that F-102.

I shouldn't say that! It is rumor and disingenuous innuendo. Right? Right?

5. Well, he was heroically defending Texas from Kansas.

6. sort of like Saddam as well I would venture...

I doubt saddam personally killed all of those in the torture chambers and rape rooms.

7. one correction. i don't think george is acceptable. everyone i know wants

to throw up whenever they see his face or hear his voice on t.v. -- and respectable? perhaps in monkey world and even there, i don't think so.

10. We don't know that, mopaul. We know that no witness has come forward.

Manson may very well have killed someone, a transient, or someone who disagreed with his group, and it was covered up.

As for bush, who knows? Everything he has ever done outside the law has been cleaned up and people either paid off or threatened. He certainly seems at peace with having killed 3,000 on September 11, 2001 through contributory negligence, 1500+ soldiers in combat, 100,000+ Iraqis in their homeland and needless to mention those who will suffer and/or die from the effects of depleted uranium.

11. Ordering others to kill is tantamount to doing the killing yourself

Legally and morally, when you (in general) order others to kill, it's not only the same as doing the dirty deed yourself, but also it involves a conspiracy, rightfully construed as an act of cowardice and control on the part of those who give the orders. This is why people who hire hit men to kill a victim are just as guilty as, if not guiltier than, the actual triggermen. Those to order others to murder are not only killers, but they are something that those who carry out the orders are not: murderers by proxy.
