Bush at the Stone Table: The Sacrificial Presidency of George W. Bush
By Paul Kengor
Some time ago, writer Andrew Klavan wrote a compelling review of the movie "Batman," comparing the caped hero to George W. Bush. Both figures gave of themselves on behalf of good in a knock-down, drag-out battle against pure, unmitigated evil, and neither was appreciated -- quite the contrary, they were often viewed as the bad guys by an ungrateful public. Klavan's analogy was right on.


My mind, however, for several years now, has raced back to another movie when I think about George W. Bush -- actually, a scene in the movie, based on a scene in a book by the same name. These final days of the Bush presidency seem an apt time to share it.


The scene is from C. S. Lewis's classic, "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe." It takes place when the Christ figure, the lion, Aslan, is led like a lamb to the slaughter at the Stone Table, where he is killed by the White Witch and every ugly hobgoblin of the netherworld. Aslan knows this is what he must endure for the larger good. Lewis described it this way:


A great crowd of people were standing all round the Stone Table and though the moon was shining many of them carried torches which burned with evil-looking red flames and black smoke. But such people! Ogres with monstrous teeth, and wolves, and bull-headed men....

What also needed to be seen to be appreciated was the hellacious assault on George W. Bush. No future biographer will be able to fully capture the gruesome, fierce, shrieking hatred of this good man. No matter what his flaws as president, they pale to the depths of depravity achieved by his tormentors. It was so bad that it reminded me, many times, of the scene at that table.

1. If BuShit is a christ-like figure, can we nail him to a christ-like cross?

[hobbit709]

2. Judging from whom he served by his actions

I'd say he needs to be nailed to an inverted cross.

[area51]

6. ROFL

You should get a DUzy for that.

[ThomWV]

3. Dear sweet Jesus, that is mind-numbing.

You have to wonder how deranged a person can be - and deranged is exactly the word I wanted to use. Their sensibilities have been scattered, rearranged, deranged, estranged, and they leave me in a plain rage.

5. I think these deranged fuckwads are funny as hell

when they stray this far into literary lunacy. The vision that came to mind as I read this shit was a bush faced cowardly lion in a batman cape.

[Berry Cool]

4. They are truly delusional, aren't they?

I guess you could say Bush was Christlike...only if you could say that Jesus took advantage of whose son HE claimed to be by going through life drunk (or dry-drunk) and stupid, and failing at everything he tried. Of course, that's not what the Bible tells us, if you believe the Bible, but hey.

[gratuitous]

7. A couple of major differences between Bush and Christ

Christ never tortured anyone. Christ never ordered anyone into physical combat, and indeed even stopped armed combat at the risk of his own physical well-being, if not his life.

Compare and contrast with what is known about Commander Bunnypants, and his proclivities for torturing and killing people.

8. could be a typo?

and he meant to say bush is asshole?

[Vickers]

9. "No future biographer will be able to fully capture the gruesome, fierce, shrieking hatred of..."

"... this good (sic) man."

You had to be there.

10. Reminds me more of the White Witch

[Marr]

11. Hmm. Did Aslan retire and split the kingdom's riches with his pals?

I wonder.
