George Bush, Nihilist

I am convinced George Bush does not have a plan for anything, except the destruction of American society as we know it.

I say that he is a nihilist because although he wishes to restore the U.S. to the pre-New Deal order, that is, the order of the robber barons, he is less concerned with restoration than he is with destruction. Every appointment is geared that way. He wants to destroy any person or institution that shows the slightest impulse toward the furtherance of the Common Good. He is not worried about what replaces those people or institutions, because (ironically for a anti-evolutionist) he is, whatever his conscious professions, a fiercely committed Social Darwinsist.
