(4,847 posts)but i do not have faith in some of the american people, not after little boots, especially the second term. i have a book full of bushisms, and the thing is i believe when he was saying his faux pas that it was actually the truth. like telling a room full of workers "if we do this we shall surely fail" (i mean succeed) or the obscenity of joking not once, but more than once after 9/11 how he hit the trifecta. or how about joking about looking for wmd's under a desk as thousands of people including soldiers have been wounded or killed.
i guess i just see some americans now have lost empathy, compassion and reason. some don't want facts or truth, they just want their team to feed them the bullshite to make them feel good about what they've already been told to believe and that includes who to blame.
i'm just hoping when i say some americans, that it's the same twenty something per cent who still think, even after he gutted the economy, allowed wealth disparity not seen since before the great depression, lied-lied-lie, screwed labor (after all it's the american way to have three jobs to survive), that they'd just love to have a beer with him.
i think they are so hard wired that nothing will move them.
