If Bush has lost the Elko High Desert Inn's bar, I do believe, he may have finally lost Honkie America.
[WS:] Which actually elicits a tiny, tiny bit of sympathy from me. I detest ignorant, self-righteous people jumping on a bandwagon with those whom they perceive as strong and kicking asses whom they perceive as weak. They apparently thought that Dubya would give them a jolt of jingoism and a good feeling that comes from kicking the ass of some foreign people of whom they know nothing, but instead it looks like them who got their asses kicked. So they abandoned their effigy of a strongman. How pathetic.
I can empathize a tiny bit with a fallen hero of this kind. What he did was despicable, to be sure, but at least he took the ownership of it and will have to live with it. However, the Bubbas who supported him without taking any risk or responsibility, simply jumped the sinking ship like rats and crawled back to their burrows until they have a chance to jump on another passing bandwagon. I presume that they are good Christians, so perhaps they should learn form their own biblical story of the throng yelling to crucify their former fallen hero (the Jesus character), and rooting for a villain (the Barabas character).
