What a hypocrite

"Acceptance of drug use is simply not an option for this administration," Bush told the gathered guests. "The only human and compassionate response to drug use is a moral refusal to accept it," Bush said. "Drug legalization would be a social catastrophe, it would completely undermine the message that drug use is wrong."

Another hypocrisy filled statement by Bush, the most ignorant person to ever set foot in the White House as leader of this failing nation. And, his presence for sure is a banner of just how failing this country is as a Republic designed to protect the liberties of the people.

Here is a person that used drugs for the majority of his young and then adult life. He was a partier who knew no bounds concerning morality, common decency, and human compassion. He was a spoiled rich brat bought out of trouble time and time again by his wealthy daddy, a man himself who does not have a moral structure any different than the plunderers of old.

Now, he speaks as if it is wrong to use drugs. Sort of a �do as I say, not as I do� which prevails amongst elected officials.

What is wrong is control of drug use. It has resulted in hundreds of thousands of people being incarcerated for no more than exercising their constitutional rights. It has resulted in dozens of people being shot and killed by enforcers using the most extreme of force when attacking innocent people, their homes forcibly invaded because of bogus tips.

It has resulted in a means of the government arming agents who haven�t any business carrying firearms, who are instructed or, at the minimum, learn, it is okay to open fire on people - it will be treated as �proper procedure� and �you were just doing your job.�

It has resulted in billions of dollars of annual cost to enforce unconstitutional laws and billions more in added costs to what people are going to do if they want, anyway. And, to top it off, a compassionate government would know it has not the power to tell people what they may do with their own bodies. It is not in their job description.

It has resulted in billions of dollars of annual cost to incarcerate people who have harmed no one, one of the primary determinations as to whether a crime has been committed or not. Nationwide, if reports are correct, 65 percent of those incarcerated for drug related �crimes� were not harming anyone.

It has resulted in hundreds of murders related to the fraudulently created illegal drug trafficking. Along these lines, it has also resulted in innocent bystanders who just happened to be a the wrong place at the wrong time and were killed by stray bullets being sprayed by those in battle for drug selling areas or those supposedly protecting the rights of the innocent (law enforcers).

It has resulted in unclean drugs being sold which has resulted in many deaths of people who were engaging in their constitutional rights to use any drug they wish for recreation, not just Bush�s current drug of choice, alcohol (and maybe still cocaine). This writer must wonder whether Bush is clean, particularly since it seems cocaine is a very difficult habit to break. In fact, perhaps all those in the capitol should be given surprise drug checks. Afterall, what is good for the goose must be good for the gander.

Anyway, Bush, because he knows NOT the design of this Republic known as the United States of America, along with the ignorance of the others filling the District of Columbia and the federal government, is not capable of recognizing the utter hypocrisy of his statements in comparison to his own drug-filled past, to the Constitution, and to the rights of the people secured by this document.

Just another person wearing the appearance of a �leader� when he, instead, has not one quality of a leader, let alone a �compassionate� leader. He uses the authority of an office bought for him by major petroleum, world bank backers and others who desire only to control, to put and keep the people of the world in servitude and obedience to governments which give naught for the rights of Man.

As long as people such as the current person in the White House are lauded as being the right person for the job of governing, nothing is going to change except for the increase in laws removing the rights of the people. As long as the media, along with the super wealthy create false impressions of people not qualified to be in office by virtue of their immorality and lack of other family values, our emergence as slaves to government is guaranteed.

And, that, Folks, scares the crap out of this writer.
