You want to talk values? You can't find a single American who in good conscience believes our values are reflected in the corporate kleptocracy and military industrial state that is Bush.

You think that Bush could ask his corporate backers to spend one million less on quality champagne and send it to some worthy cause.
Think of the goodwill that Bush could win around the world--think of the good it would do--if Bush just moved one tenth of the gifts going to throw a PARTY glorifying him personally to the victims of the tsunami.

Now that you have thought of it, realize that Bush never will. He'll never consider it.

The corporations giving the money know Bush and his cronies will reward a gift to his party in a way that a gift to charity will not be rewarded. That's what Bush values. Himself, his glory and his power to compel others to open their pocketbooks which he will never use for any purpose besides his Power and Glory Forever, Amen. Dick.

Bush is the problem, HIS personal sin that infects our nation.
