Frog BOY AT WORK IN IRAQ


At last, my friends, we discover why Iraq is sinking into the mud of the Tigris & Euphrates faster'n you can shake a stick at a snake: Bush handed it over to the Fundies. You think I joke? Bush has put untrained Fundies in charge of Iraqi hospitals and such:

"'God's war needs God's warriors, and the White House was ready to supply them.... [T]he first director of Iraqi health services, Dr. Frederick Burkle, was dismissed. Burkle, a distinguished physician, was a specialist in disaster relief, with experience in Kosovo, Somalia, and Kurdish Iraq. His replacement, James Haverman, had run a Christian adoption agency meant to discourage women from having abortions. Haverman placed an early emphasis on preventing Iraqis from smoking, while ruined hospitals went untended. '"

"This may suggest the policy on appointments that put Michael Brown in charge of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, but the parallel is [insufficient. The] Washington Post reporter who had covered the CPA in Iraq, Rajiv Chandrasekaran, ... said, 'There were a hundred Browns in Iraq.'"
From Echidne of the Snakes.

Any doubt in your mind now that Bush is mentally ill? (See Oct. 27 post, "He Began by Blowing Up Frogs.") This goes beyond incompetence and lust for power. It's a continuation of the sadism that Bush began showing as a kid, when he inserted firecrackers into frogs and lit the fuses.

This is akin to Bush firing all surgeons across America. You go in for your open heart surgery, and there's a masked, trained bug exterminator standing over you waiting to begin the job.

I think every boy experiments with frogs and fire crackers. I guess the difference is the frequency of it. If you keep doing it (and get a thrill out of it) then maybe you have a problem.

My older brother and I did it once to a snake. It shook us up so bad we never thought of doing it again.
I felt so bad for the poor snake.
When you are young you don't realize the consequences of your actions until it's too late.

It's too bad that it's in boy-culture to do this at all, anti-thesis. Children can't be expected to buck their culture. What distinguishes Bush is that he didn't stop with frogs. He went on into branding people in his twenties, to mimicking a woman pleading for her life in his forties, to killing more people on death row than any other governor in Americn history, to torturing people outright in his fifties.

Plus his sociopath of a mom told him that casualties are "irrelevant" and a waste of her "beautiful mind." Those are some sick mother --ckers, those Bushes. And now Shrub thinks he's going to get points in heaven for starting Armaggedon.
