What is your reaction to George Bush's "American Idol" caper?

Question

Here is the setup. This creature a few days ago literally told Israel to "sic 'em!" regarding its invasion of Lebanon and the murdering of 300s if not thousands of innocent civilians all over that small nation and driving anywhere from 200,000 to 500,000 of them literally in their sleepware out into their roads to flee aimlessly until they die, starve to death or die of thirst. And at the same time has his White House staff set up an "American Idols" performance for his amusement.

What am I missing here? All this seems so out of touch with Christian compassion and ordinary human decency that I honestly cannot understand the event or its purpose.

I had to struggle but I have resisted listing possible reasons for you to choose from. I just want your honest reaction to the above.

Answer 1

Disgraceful misdirection cashing in on the unfortunate tendency of so many Americans to take trivial celebrity oriented things more seriously than the very real dangers of the current global political situation.

Answer 2

It sounds a bit to me like Hitler's jig (a dance) he performed when he heard the Polish invasion was going swimmingly.

Or maybe Nero's fiddling while Rome burned.

In any event, I've stopped hoping for compassion from the idiot or from his fellow Reich compatriots.

Have you seen the video clip of Ann Coulter dodging a pie? She later called the college students terrorists.

It is like Alice in Wonderland, but this ain't no wonderland...

Answer 3

Hey...Clinton was getting neck while the Serbs were being bombed by NATO. The Serbs may be pricks but I doubt they liked being bombed anymore than the Hezbollah pricks are enjoying it now.

Carter tried to be very serious all the time, but it sure didn't help him in the polls. When your POTUS life goes on despite the inevitable trouble in the world. FDR took time off to enjoy himself even during WW2.
