First of all, let me just say this diary contains some adult language. It's funny that we call it adult language...considering it is at times, very childish to use. But in this instance, I believe it is appropriate.
Any reasonable person who watched the press conference today will tell you this:
Our president is just a straight up asshole.
I am just fucking disgusted by the condescending manner in which this primate conducts himself.
Mr. President...well, let's just forget that you're the President. Forget that you are supposed to be a "compassionate conservative."
Forget all that and let's just say you're a human being.
Human beings don't mistreat and talk down to other people like they are their goddamn unwanted pets.
What gives you the fucking right? You are not the King. Maybe that's what Laura calls you in the sack, but not us. You work for us.
I was going to go into detail and get some psychoanalysis going of your childish, snobbish, infantile responses and insults...of how under the pressure of actual criticism or questioning... you regress back to your pampered childhood...but I digress.
I think what is at the heart of the anti-Bush fervor is clearly demonstrated in that press conference. Bush's actual policies and governing are a big part of the reason he is so vehemently disliked.
But I think a big part of the anti-Bush movement...is that he's just a straight up elitist asshole.
Look...we don't necessarily want you to be our friend. You're the President.
But at least be a decent human being.
That's why Clinton still had high approval ratings, even after all his troubles. Because he remained a decent person. He was charming, not in a fake bravado country fucking bumpkin kind of way like you, but intellectually charming...even when you knew he was lying. He was decent to people, and empathetic..and didn't talk down to them like they were lower-class citizens.
I hope this video gets played over and over again in the news...when people see it...the truth is undeniable.
Again, the link, so graciously hosted by Crooks and Liars: Gregory vs. Bush
UPDATE: Here is transcript of whole speech.
And my point is, THE MORE IMPORTANT POINT IS, THAT YOU'RE JUST A STRAIGHT UP FUCKING ASSHOLE!
Thank you.
