It's getting harder to laugh at Bush (read)

From the Augusta Free Press
http://www.augustafreepress.com/stories/storyReader$40280

Here's the tag line;

Two centuries after The Declaration of Independence was signed - the document that began the world's great experiment in democracy, the document that states every human being is entitled to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" - the administration of George W. Bush believes, as a matter of policy in bringing democracy to the Middle East, that it is better to allow violence to continue, that it is better to allow life, often innocent life, to be lost, than it is to let people step back and take at least one day to not worry if this is the day their children will die ... funny, huh?
