Forget the State of the Union speech--it's all bullshit.

The Bush you need to be paying attention to is the one that spoke at Kansas State University on January 23, 2006. The man is brilliant on his feet and anyone who doesn't see that is getting duped at expense of making themselves feel smarter by thinking dumber.

America has come a long way since the Washington administration.

• John Adams passed The Alien and Sedition acts which were like The Patriot Act on nuclear steroids.


• Thomas Jefferson pissed all over the Constitution by purchasing the Louisiana territory from Napoleon, breaking every fundamental rule of the separation of powers that the government he helped build was founded upon.


• Andrew Jackson indoctrinated a campaign of genocide against the American Indians which almost obliterated their entire culture from the face of the earth.


• Abraham Lincoln became a tyrant for a just cause; he was a brilliant and good human being who got caught up in an impossible war between the freedom of man and man's freedom to pursue happiness unfettered by government control. Believe me, both sides lost in the American Civil war and yet both sides still won; and this is what makes it the most important war ever fought in human history.


• Woodrow Wilson, the racist buffoon and arguably the biggest outrage of a US President in our history, put the United States (and the world) on a course of disaster when he intervened in a European civil war which was long on its way to petering out through attrition. The insult to the Chinese by completely denying them in The Versailles Treaty; accompanied by a face-spitting insult to the Germans (who were only half complicit in the most ridiculous war ever fought in terms of social gain versus social loss); allowed the Soviets time to build infrastructure and powerful ambitions second only to Der Fuhrer and, ultimately, far worse.
  
  In fact, I'll take it one step further and say that Woodrow Wilson is responsible for starting the War on Terror by entering the US into World War I. Let's not forget that Gavrilo Princep, the man who shot Archduke Franz Ferdinand and started World War I, was a Muslim.


• And we all know the sad (and sometimes glorious) history of the latter half of the twentieth century, with the Cold War, the Information War, and now the War on Terror.

Yeah, we've come a long way since 1783.

And if recent world history has shown us anything, it is that the modern man standing alone is incapable of managing power.

He always makes the bargain with Mephistopheles or his agent, Jack Abramhoff.

No one person is capable of morally steering the ship of state. There must be a team.

And this is why I voted for George W. Bush twice, because I liked the people he had surrounded himself with. Like Lord Voldemort, they had done great (but sometimes terrible) things. And, to be honest, I was curious what they would do with the world. It's been interesting watching the team move to secure resources in the world that will steer this ship into the next generation; a bit like watching a child building Legos on a cluttered kitchen table while tipping his chair back on two legs.

No one can convince me that the Bush administration has not done a far better job than the alternatives would have.

Bush and his team have been steering an out of control orange truck straight downhill off a high ass cliff drop for five years now and not so many of our side has died as has theirs.' And isn't this the point of war?

To kill more of them than they do of yours'?

To make them stop, make the shut up, or make them just go away forever?


Just watch the President's speech from Kansas State and look for the sparkle in his eyes when he hits a bulls eye or a triple twenty and you will know what it is that I love about the Bush administration.
