Harsh words for Bush's hypocrisy

derrick jackson seems a trifle upset...

Last week in an address before the National Endowment for Democracy, Bush . . . [said], "Like the ideology of communism, our new enemy teaches that innocent individuals can be sacrificed to serve a political vision. And this explains their cold-blooded contempt for human life."

Two and a half years after the invasion, Bush has said nothing about the tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis who were sacrificed to serve his own political vision.

[...]

In the speech on his "war on terror" last week, Bush had the gall to quote the part of the Koran that says "killing an innocent human being is like killing all humanity. . . . the time has come for all responsible Islamic leaders to join in denouncing an ideology that exploits Islam for political ends." He said this as a president who has exploited Christianity for his own political ends, in a presidency that has displayed a cold-blooded contempt for innocent Iraqis and democracy right here at home.

it's beyond gall... it's outright contempt for anyone that purports to have a brain - or a heart...
