Let children walk with
Nature, let them see the beautiful blendings and communions of death and life, their joyous inseparable unity, as taught in woods and meadows, plains and mountains and streams of our blessed star, and they will learn that death is stingless indeed, and as beautiful as life. John Muir

"Bush is a moron." Hirsch, a tenth grade student, made
this statement during a discussion on leadership, media
spin, and image. As I told him, I may not care for "W", but
unless you provide tangible, verifiable, evidence that Bush
in fact has an IQ between 50-69, or his behavior resembles
that of a person with limited mental capacity, your
statement holds no validity.
I find a similar comparison between Hirsch's statement
and Bush's statements regarding "weapons of mass
destruction" and "regime change".
If Bush is a moron, what does that make us? |
