Ugly isn't it. Would you prefer a pretty mass killer that everyone couldn't help liking? Or one that is monstrously ugly and without any redeeming features?

Bush is like a new baby, except an incredibly grotesque and deformed one. For the moment, his "mother" still believes him to be beautiful of course, mothers can't help it. Everyone else can see he's a hideous little monster.
The time is not yet right to strangle the troll in its cot. As Chuck Grimes points out, we have to wait until the satanic creature grows a little and starts biting and clawing at its own mother (the American people). Then the mother will herself disown the unnatural abomination.

Yes. the American people have to learn to be responsible for the ugly product of their collective political womb. An abortion isn't good enough, this mother only ever seems to give birth to monsters, a more permanent solution is needed.
