Shit, if it weren't for moral relativists who said "Fuck it... the SCOTUS has to just end this thing" W might not even be President today.
Moral clarity? Maybe that's the message, but that ain't the practice.
W has the moral character of Richard Nixon. Remember what his motto was in 1968? "Returning law and order to America!"
In my short 3 plus decades, I've learned one thing about moralists - the louder a man's "moral clarity," the deeper his closet a/immorality. From Jimmy Swaggart through the priesthood through Iran Contra all the way up to W. Morals are like money or sex - he who talks a good game generally has none.
Your desire for moral clarity is laughable - all Bush did was offer a better bullshit story about his "morality" than his predecessor. The only thing W's shown me is that he's a master bullshit artist.

The extent of your jadedism is sad. There is moral clarity and there is evil and there is right and wrong. You are so deep in the morally relativistic shades of grey that can't even recognize the possibility of an alternative. Its sad. I like you Sebby, even lurve you, in a platonic pseudo-frat boy crush sort of way, nttawwt. I weep at what they have done to you. I wonder if a full blood transfusion/replacement like Keith Richards used to get would help?
