PRAYER FOR BUSH: A satirical plea for the 43rd American President I humbly urge all people to pray for George W. Bush May this poor man find greater wisdom instead of mouthing rhetorical mush May You awaken his conscience & give him a progressive swoosh May You blast away his ignorance & provide him with a moral push May the thousands he has orphaned find forgiveness rather than joining a suicidal putsch Most of all, Dear Lord, I pray this soul will stop using Your Name in vain cuz when hatred or greed are veiled as piety it amounts ta a spiritual am- Bush Terri: This guy is poisoned: anytime hatred enters our hearts, it poisons us. Sam: Doesn't Bush need all of the prayers he can get? Ted: This isn't a prayer – it's a satire. And I find it hard to pray for a guy who has murdered so many. Kris: That's all the more reason to pray for him . . . Tim: Bush represents the blind self-righteousness that's in all of us. If you look closely enough, you can find the same foolish arrogance within your own heart. Ted: Do I need you to tell me what's in my own heart? ================================================================================= from _AmeriSong: Poetry, Art, & Dialogs about Amerika_ by T Newfields SUMMARY: An image, verse, and conversation about President George W.
