Reason Urges Bush to Drop It

Maximum Leader Bush is feeling the weight of the world. He should drop it. By Brian Doherty

Beware the purple, George. Its weight is too heavy for any man. There's a reason empires of old, from Rome to Japan, associated the emperor with divinity. With the hubristic grasping of power and responsibility inevitably involved in such absurd and criminal assertions of power over the rest of the world, it would take a God not to crack and fail. And while God may or may not be on George W.'s side, George W. himself is no God.
