An epidemic
Folks, there is a dangerous, an insidious disease going around the world.
The epidemic began right around the end of the year 2000 and it's been spreading out from the United States, to Europe, Asia, and Latin America. It is more of a mental illness than a physical one, but still very serious in its symptoms.
I'm talking about Bush Derangement Syndrome (BDS). We have seen BDS manifest itself in the US in luminaries like Michael Moore, Cindy Sheehan, the entire Democratic Party, et al. In Cuba, the entire leadership is infected. But now, Venezuela seems to going through a serious bout. Here's an interesting link:

Bush is the son of Satan. Yes, that's right. In the country that is welcoming the Beast of Biran to be its philosopical daddy, the say Bush is the son of the red guy with horns and a pitchfork.
Time to invest in pharmaceutical companies that make thorazine...

Bush Derangement Syndrome is a popular cult these days. History will not be kind to those who have promoted it and and manipulated those suffering from it. Even if the 'leaders' of the cult are sincere about their belief. The popularity of BDS is a sad indicator to me of the dysfunction in the social scene today. Trust me on this, regarding this silly crap: It is being arranged or at least endorsed by Chavez/castro, seeking to inspire the truly gullible. By the way: consider that Hitler, castro and chavez all led unsuccessful coup attempts prior to their take downs of their respective nations into their hellish tyrannies.

And the same 3 maniacs delve or delved into the occult, superstition, etc - which in the case of at least 1 of these psycho-stooges obviously did no good...maybe he's waiting to share that insight down there somewhere, with the other 2.

Speaking of which, have you seen today's Leonard Pitts column? He uses the term "Bush jihadists." Sheesh.

Bush derangement syndrome is less puzzling if you consider the essentially religious nature of communism. Its moral supremacy (to the believer) is axiomatic, and not subject to rational criticism. Insofar as reason contradicts the faith, so much the worse for reason. Communism is an abstract god, but a god nonetheless.
Gods often come with demons, say the abstract demon of capitalism. But flesh and blood demons serve better as the focus of hatred and resentment, the glue used to bind believers, and to distract them from the evils they both suffer and commit.

Not only nutty, stupid. Hebrew always goes left to right, and never down.
