UK's
Guardian Outrage: Bush Should Be Shot!?!? |
|
Guardian writer asks, "Booth ... Oswald ...
Hinckley ... Where are you now that we need you?" |

- October 24, 2004 - |
Props to the
Drudge Report.
In an abominable
October 23, 2004, attack on President Bush, Charlie Brooker of England's
Guardian newspaper, wrote,
He [Bush] blinks, he mumbles, he lets a sentence trail off,
starts a new one, then reverts back to whatever he was saying in
the first place. Each time he recalls a statistic (either from
memory or the voice in his head), he flashes us a dumb little
smile, like a toddler proudly showing off its first bowel
movement. Forgive me for employing the language of the
playground, but the man's a tool ...
On November 2, the entire civilised world will be praying,
praying Bush loses. And Sod's law dictates he'll probably win,
thereby disproving the existence of God once and for all. The
world will endure four more years of idiocy, arrogance and
unwarranted bloodshed, with no benevolent deity to watch over
and save us. John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey
Oswald, John Hinckley Jr. - where are you now that we need you?
(bold, emphasis added)
Unbelievable.
On Sunday, the day
following the publication of the piece, the Guardian removed the
article from its web site. Then, several hours later, they
posted an apology to its readership. However, if readers to this web
site act quickly, they might be able to locate a
cached version of the original article.
TheMediaReport.com says ... A simply
barbaric article.
