I suppose people on the Left are getting off, as it were, on the shoe attack on President Bush. Bush, to his credit, acted with a grace that you would never have seen from Clinton or Obama if a similar thing had been done to them. (In fact, Obama and Clinton have had numerous moments of gracelessness; I can't recall Bush ever complaining about all the abuse he has received.)
After learned just now well after the rest of the world, I guess that the attack on Bush was a left-winger's wet dream, that would only have been surpassed by a successful attack on Obama. Why is it that the Left wants U.S. presidents to be assassinated? They hate America. There is nothing in it for conservatives if presidents are assassinated. It doesn't allow them to uphold their worldview. But for the Left, presidential assassinations are the perfect opportunity to crow righteously about what a violent and hateful place America is.

Bush doesn't complain because he knows he's a dumb ass. Just face it, Bush ran this country into the ground.
ReplyDeleteOh, you are a dolt. The left doesn't hate America. Lets be serious. Look at all the shit that the republicans have done to decimate this country. And lets be serious. The only thing that the majority of Americans are mad about when it comes to the shoe throwing incident is that the guy missed. Bush took over a great country and screwed it up horribly.
ReplyDeleteAndis, I enjoy your comments about life in China and the view into your life in Wuxi. But oh boy do you show your limitations when you start discussing politics. Stick to what your best at and start another blog where you can keep all your anti-left rants.
ReplyDeleteWhat makes your blog a great read is your honesty. I enjoy your outside the crowd observations and as a Canadian who has spent much time in China am familiar with what you write. I have long been confounded by the irrational hate of the left for not following the current dogma or anything USA. It’s a lonelier road you travel and I applaud your courage and insights. I must have my beliefs challenged and tested to verify their validity. Only wish the others who commented here could do the same.
ReplyDeletePlease carry on.
