SOMEBODY HELP ME UNDERSTAND THE DEVOTION TO BUSH AND THIS ADMINISTRATION!
I’m serious. Take some recent examples from just this year; The surge, Walter Reed and the eight US Attorneys that were fired.
The surge: After all the advice of the Iraq Study Group, the generals in the army and the politicians on both sides of the isle, Bush decides to listen to the minority opinion and surge the troops.
Walter Reed: The shinning example of Military Veterans care has revealed the absolute disrespect and the reality of how little they care for the troops. This reality is the exact opposite of what this administration wants the American public to believe.
US Attorneys fired: This administration and its vocal support group have tried to explain and spin away from the truth about the firings. The reality is that these (Republican) attorneys were fired for political reasons. These attorneys were either pursuing Republican politicians or NOT pursuing Democratic politicians. Bush and his administration are trying to use the justice department as a political tool to do their bidding. And now that they have been caught, they are spinning their lies as fast as they can to explain their actions away.
But these three recent examples are not the subject of my concern. The fact that some and one could even say, many people are still devoted to Bush and this administration. I got into a conversation with one such person. Aside from the trick of trying to jump from subject to subject every time he found himself without explanation, he would assassinate the character of the people I used as sources or reference to debate his reasoning.
That’s what it seems to be about. These devoted Bushies are soooo devoted and believe in their (There simply MUST be a word for him) so much, that they just can not accept reasoning, truth and logic that would change their minds. Instead, they twist the truth to make it something they want and they disparage any one who presents proof of Bush’s ineptness. They ignore the actions of their fellow worshipers and complain about the same actions of Democrats. Then they accuse Democrats of playing political games.
They go further. They form themselves into groups and incite each other to political orgasm talking up their beliefs. It is almost like a cult. I honestly do not understand their devotion and lock step loyalty to Bush and their cause. Somebody explain it, PLEASE!
