Andy: My fault for sloppy writing. Maybe the hurricane got to me too.
Eric: I'm in denial about the hurricane catastrophe. Hence my
noxious "pray for a better god" slogan in time of deep loss and
widespread suffering.
As for the Bush thing, I believe you guys are wrong to single out
Bush for vilification. It's too easy. You guys want to attack the
mouth. I say we should attack the brain.
Rather than focus on Bush, we should identify and single out Bush's
shadowy advisers. We should drag each and every one of the advocates
for his policies (especially domestic policies) out of the shadows,
tar and feather them, and throw them back into other shadows.
The result of merely bashing Bush is to take the focus off the
heinous policies. Stick to the policies. Identify the proponents,
and give 'em the bum's rush. Much more effective than attacking the
unknowable Mr. Bush, who seems to exist solely that people bash him
rather than his policies.
