Activist Judges: A Look Into Bush's Latest Lie

On February 24, 2004 , President George W. Bush made two things official: he is against the idea of two men or women who love one another getting married, and he's a deceitful hypocrite when it comes to "activist judges." Bush isn’t alone in his disfavor of what is going on in San Francisco , as most would agree that cities shouldn't be able to create laws going against those created by the State ( for instance, California 's citizens voted against the issue of gay marriage). Governor Schwarzenegger made a good point, saying that if this becomes the norm, cities could create their own laws regarding much more dangerous issues, like allowing people to own assault weapons. However, what you're about to read isn't about whether homosexual couples should be allowed to receive civil marriage licenses, but about how Bush is less than truthful when it comes to his fear of "activist judges".

Without a doubt in my mind, the Bush administration is the most right wing administration in America's short history. Whether it's going to war without legitimate reason, lowering taxes on the rich while deceiving the poor, or trying to eliminate a woman's right to choose, this administration has made no bones about it: they will appeal to the most radical members of their base, and you can go to hell if you don't like it. Here is where the hypocrisy comes in: Bush isn't worried about activist judges. No, he's worried about judges whose liberal thinking threatens Bush’s political rigidity. When it comes to right wing activist judges, Bush's worries simply disappear Case in point: Charles Pickering.

1. The word is Reactionary.

Bush is not right winged at all. Reagan was a right winger, Bush is a reactionary - a term used for those who revert to the futhest point to the right of the political spectum. Only the Puritan era could rival this administrations deepest political desires.

2. * must be petrified

Deep down, Shrubya must know that he really doesnt understand whats going on. That everyone around him seems to be smarter than him, both in tact and nuance. He must realize deep down that he has no vision -- hence his deep nepatistic reliance on his advisers for all affairs, great and small. His only compass is his Born again book, his simplistic notions of good and evil, his black and white, non-compromising attitude on everything. Matter of fact, he is unable to compromise because he isn't infact able to approach a problem from multiple angles, and find the best solution. And this is his weakness. His advisers are dropping like flies. Conservatives are already starting to distance themselves from him -- yet he doesnt realize this.

Scenario: Cheney dies of a heart attack, and Rove gets indited in the CIA leak probe. Shrubya is left with Rumsfeld -- a binary man himself. Complete breakdown.

Bush should be remembered as a simple man -- a man in way over his head during a difficult time in this country. A man who is taking us all down with him.

W's twisted world view. He didn't mind judges so much when they put him in office, did he?

4. The problem is not how many lies there are

but how many people really believe in them
and how many more don't even think that there is a worthy truth
