Advice to a Failed Man

My advice to the President....

Go before the American people in a spirit of humility and APOLOGIZE. Then, if your faith is truly the faith of a Christian, not the mouthings of a cynical politician, get on your knees and truly pray-don't look for voices in your head, look within and decide how the gentle Christ would set up a government infrastructure to truly reflect "Christian Values". He said that how one treats the least among us will be counted as how they treat Him. Mr. President, if you permit children to live in poverty when a tiny % of the wealthiest's income would feed them, if you permit the poor and underpriveleged to go without basic health care, if you spend millions on campaigns instead of spending that money on quality pre-school and childcare, then you are showing God that you do not value His Son, that you would starve Him, leave Him prey to illness, leave Him ignorant, then blame Him for not succeeding as an adult.

Mr. Bush, apologize to the people you have lied to-the lies being that you would unite the country, the lies being that you are a compassionate conservative, the lies being that you walk with Christ. Other lies are less important-they would not have happened if you had told the truth on these three things. Next, to make your apology truly have any meaning, reinvent yourself into a man who can truly be said to be compassionate, to be a uniter, to walk with Christ.

Begin with cleaning your own house-remove those who are corrupt, those who lie and twist the truth, those who steal, those whose advice has led you to this point. The hypocrits who claim to be pro-life, yet favor war and executions. The hypocrites who claim to revere family and marrige, yet cast out their children, divorce their spouses, fight to keep their own same sex relationships unrecognized and unsanctioned. Cast out these from your administration, from your circle of advisors, from your supporters. Look for advisors from all sources. Look for men and women whose driving goal is to raise the least of Americans up, to return the US to it's place as a beacon of hope and freedom. Look for those that abhor destruction without over riding purpose- be that destruction that of war, or the taking of a life, or the destruction of a person's self respect and livelihood.

Or resign and let someone who can fix the mess you've made.
