Amnestisia, the GOP, and the Mind of George W. Bush

By Nicholas Stix

My new VDARE.COM article is up. A teaser follows.

* * *


Some of America’s finest minds, not least those right here at VDARE.COM, have for years sought to explain the GOP’s courtship of catastrophe—for the party and the American people alike—under George W. Bush. As VDARE.COM’s Steve Sailer has repeatedly noted, Bush has campaigned for amnesty since 2001, so neither the President’s support of the original S. 1348 omnibus
amnesty/open borders/democide bill, nor his newest attempt, by throwing senators an additional $4.4 billion bribe, at selling the destruction of America, should surprise anyone. [Senate Leaders Agree to Revive Immigration Bill, By David Stout, NYT, June 14, 2007]

But people are continually surprised by Bush because of the unimaginably radical nature of his defend America/destroy America policies—as Sailer dubs them, “invade the world/invite the world”.

For over six years, Bush has sought to abolish America, at the same time that he has led the party that for generations has been identified historically with the national interest and patriotism. Since 9/11, he has been waging a War on Islam, er, I mean, Terror, supposedly in defense of America but justified—and possibly motivated—by Wilsonian messianism….

If you like the article, please consider making a tax-deductible contribution to VDARE, the finest political site on the Web, and one of the few that pays its contributors, a relationship that is a case where correlation is an expression of causality. Just hit this link.

Thank you.
