    I just had an awful thought

    The way America tiptoes around Bush rather than attacking the source of our ills, I can imagine a future Banana Republic (kind of like the United States) having a dicktater like Bush who, when he does something worthy of removing him from office, the people instead find some poor random schmuck on the street, then apprehend, torture and kill him.

    After all, as bad as the dicktater may be, he is too important to actually suffer for his crimes.

    This seems to me to be how Americans think.
