Bushisms

Since the onset of Bush era, I have had many an occasion to ponder on epistemology. For wherein sprouts the fount of information to feed the hungry public with often dubious doctrines as undisputed truth? Yet, though my mind may repudiate the explanation, but I was swayed as the rest of the American public, to question“Bushism” is tantamount to unpatriotic behavior. Dixie chicks, need I say more?

So I soldiered on, and accepted the whole truth of Iraq being the next “nuclear power” and Saddam Hussein being the next Hitler and that oil never ever entered the equation. Time has elapsed since the shock and awe attack and the desperately seeking weapons of mass destructions. Year rolled into another with nary an explanation to give credence to the unnecessary war and the best pearl of wisdom to date on the war was Donald Rumsfeld‘s typical Bushism we were programmed to accept

As we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns — the ones we don’t know we don’t know." — Donald Rumsfeld

Yes, now I quite understand.

The war does not put a strain on the economical climes. No, the additional troops sent frequently to the war riddled countries are incidentals. The hike in oil prices due to the unrest in the Middle Eastern countries and the looming recession are quite inconsequential, and definitely the channeling of food to produce biofuel and climatic changes has absolutely no bearing on the current world food crisis
No, it is the rise in the middle class in India and China that has put such a burden on the world food supply. An unequivocal truth. President Bush, as usual has been my source of enlightenment.
