Entry: Bush's reaction to the Johnson beheading

Russ Abbott presents Bush's reaction to the Johnson beheading:

I will attempt to clarify for myself what seems so wrong with Bush's response to the beheading of Paul Johnson. Here is what he is quoted as saying.

"The murder of Paul shows the evil nature of the enemy we face. These are barbaric people. There's no justification whatsoever for his murder. And yet they killed him in cold blood."

...

The point of all this is simply that by expressing such a warped view of the world [you'll have to read the post to see why it is warped], Bush is making it much more difficult for the American people to understand what is going on. That may be his intent. Or more likely, he himself doesn't have a clue about what is going on in his own mind.
