Ben Tripp: My Fellow Americans...Get Stuffed!

Ben Tripp: My Fellow Americans...Get Stuffed!Bush represents the end of American history as a noteworthy subject. It is Bush who will preside over the final ruin of America's promise to the world, the despoiling of her natural treasures, the failure to respond in time to global climate change, Bush who will be the cementer of 'intolerance' as the defining characteristic of our people. The French are great lovers, although there hasn't been a great French lover in seventy years. The Germans are warlike, although they've behaved themselves for half a century. Americans are intolerant: they voted for Bush. It's just our bad luck that the entire course of history happens to hinge on this particular span of years, and we chose Bozo the Hun for a president.
