The end justifies the means; bush teaching children to lie, cheat, steal
What will we tell the children, Mr. President?

bush said this week that it is okay to torture a person to maybe get some new information. bush said it is okay to invade a country that might have future terror planned for the US. bush says we should give up some of our freedoms to protect ourselves from the people who hate us (for our freedoms). The 37% of the country that still follows bush would probably agree with those sentences whole-heartedly. It IS okay, makes sense to me, they'd say. And the obvious follow-up question is: What will we tell the children? It's okay to cheat if it helps you win the game? or ace the test?? It's okay to steal if you get what you want??? Is this what republican parents are teaching their kids these days?? Go ahead, lie, cheat, steal, whatever, just win, win, win. Are W lovers raising millions of tiny cheaters?

What WILL we tell the children? Can the end EVER justifiy the means??

2. I call it "Trickle Down Lies", and I made a large
part of my webpage about that. It's absolutely wrong!

yes W lovers ARE raising a bunch of immoral lying cheaters. It's my hope that the children of these talking point repeaters, when they are old enough, will see the damage their parents lies have caused in our Country.

These lying shit for brains religious hypocrites are a disgrace to our Nation.

3. I thought the same thing....
He is saying "the end justify the means" but if you listen carefully the Republicans in this administration never, ever talk about the possible result of their end result....this is what is the most troubling aspect of these insane times...
