George Bush: An Obituary

George Herbert Walker Bush Senior was born rich and he died rich. In between those two points, he made the rich richer and the poor poorer. Sired by Nazi sympathizer and treason plotter Prescott Bush, George was a legacy baby. His life was dedicated mostly toward supporting racist, and corrupt power structures. Bush was head of the CIA, a House Rep, VP, and president. In each of these positions, he failed to distinguish himself in any way except for death tolls and suffering. As CIA director and later VP he made Osama Bin Laden as well as dictators like Noriega and Hussein the best pals of the USA, thus allowing henchmen to torture and murder millions on behalf of US power. Ironically, as president, he turned against the very dictators he helped create by saying they had become corrupt. As commander in chief, he presided over two wars in four years, as well as hundreds of riots against police brutality after the Rodney King trials, and the mismanagement of the worst natural disaster in American history (at the time), Hurricane Andrew. In both manmade crisis and natural disaster, he was mostly MIA. He died as he lived: feckless, unremarkable, and privileged. His career was littered with racist moments in which he not only never spoke out against, but encouraged the worst tendencies in the Republican party: Willie Horton race-baiting, the GOP Southern Strategy, vetoing civil rights legislation, and appointing sexual predator Clarence Thomas to the Supreme Court. He did vote for a law protecting the American flag though. The key distinguishing trait of his life is that he was the father of George Bush Jr. Dubya went on to exceed his father in recklessness and incompetence within the Oval Ofice, and he also mismanaged a Hurricane crisis with cronyism and incompetence. His son also botched two wars that resulted in millions of deaths and casualties. The father-son legacy has led many Americans to swear off anyone with the Bush name ever being in the White House again. Despite never speaking truth to power, he extended his family line with legacy babies who were born rich and will -odds are- die rich while supporting the rich. Rest in Wealth.
