Sanctity of Life Day?

Hypocritical to the point of absurdity. In a formal White House proclamation issued Friday, George W. Bush declared January 21 National Sanctity of Human Life Day, 2007.

As you can see we are not making this up. He has the nerve, the unmitigated gall to do this whilst on a rampage to send even more of our finest young men and women into hell. Yesterday turned out to be the 3rd deadliest day in Iraq for U.S. troops. Sort of seems the Goddess didn't like the pronouncement any more than I do.

I am sure the 3,o30 American military that have died in Iraq are resting easier now as are the 35,000 Iraqi that died last year.

Here is a really stirring part of the proclamation...
"America was founded on the principle that we are all endowed by our Creator with the right to life and that every individual has dignity and worth," reads the stirring proclamation. "National Sanctity of Human Life Day helps foster a culture of life and reinforces our commitment to building a compassionate society that respects the value of every human being."

"I call upon all Americans to recognize this day with appropriate ceremonies and to underscore our commitment to respecting and protecting the life and dignity of every human being,"
Please Geedubya no more proclamations!
