Where's the Superior Bush Morality?

According to Pam Easton of the AP in her article Neil Bush's Ex-Wife Settles Slander Case Neil Bush's ex-wife, Sharon Bush, was sued by Bush's new wife, Maria Andrews Bush, for slander. Evidently Maria was Neil Bush's mistress when he was married to Sharon and at the time the affair was going on Maria became pregnant. Supposedly Sharon Bush spread rumors that the baby was Neil's when in fact it turned out to that the father was Maria's former husband Robert Andrews. The case was settled out of court.

Okay, maybe I'm missing something here but does this strike anyone else as absurd? Here Neil was fucking another woman during his marriage and his ex-wife gets sued for slander when she purportedly spreads a rumor that Neil was the father of his mistress’s baby. Which crime is worse? Sleeping with a mistress or saying that the woman your husband was sleeping with, who became pregnant during this time, fathered her child?

Where are the morals that the GOP supposedly hold so near and dear to their cash register hearts? I frankly don't give a shit if Neil Bush was sleeping with his neighbor’s pet goat but when you are on the team that continually tears opponents apart for lacking "morals" then you deserved to be viewed through the same lens. Of course if Neil runs for the presidency the GOP will use framing to cover this little moral slip up. They will do something like focus on a mistake the reporter that brings this story to people's attention made (ALA Dan Rather) or they will make up some absurd story about how Sharon Bush was a drunken witch and abused little Neil and he had to run to the arms of his mistress (Sobs and tears). Give me a fucking break. The point is that Neil is an adulterer. End of story.

Some Democrats are no better and if they really want to win an election they need to get rid of the elitist agenda and start working for the benefit of the people of this country not big business like the Republicans. That's how you distinguish yourselves, that's how you win. You don't distinguish yourselves by sucking up to the pro life crazies, homophobes, religious loons, and the extremist gun freaks (NRA put another 10 notches in the door of your gun cabinet). THEY ARE AN EXTREME MINORITY NOT THE MAJORITY! Democratic Party if you stick together and take care of the people you will win but if you try to be "Republican Lite" you will get beat at their game.

I thought we lived in a democracy but I guess I was mistaken because if we did we could oust these politicians and begin anew. For many the "American Dream" will remain a dream because the powers that be have fixed it that way. There is plenty of wealth to go around in this country but greed is destroying the chance many have at a better life. The solution isn't nearly as extreme as communism but lies in true democracy where people have the ability to rise up and become rich but not at the expense of the middle and lower classes. For those that claim to have a monoply on "morals" I ask you if it is "moral" to let people freeze to death because you cut subsidized heating or that the infant mortality rate in a number of US cities is worse that in Cuba or other third world countries because of cuts to health programs. It is time to truly adhere to morals and I don't mean censoring every fucking creative outlet in this country but to do things that benefit the whole of this country, to give chairty when needed, and to bring prosperity back to the majority in a country that is sliding down the slippery slope of tyranny. Despite what those that have hijacked religion in this country think, morals are not found exclusively in the Bible or the Koran or any religious text, they are found in the heart and the heads of those who are compassionate enough to care about what happens to their fellow man.

So, Neil and other politicians, go fuck your mistress or fifty of them for that matter because I don't care. What I do care about are the lack of morals that are robbing people in this country and other countries of the American Dream. The pig can only grow so fat before it is slaughtered. In the new morning I wake to the smell of bacon and revolution brewing.
