Back in the 1960s, social scientist Lawrence Peter wrote The Peter Principle whereby most individuals in the Western world enjoy promotions until they reach their highest level of incompetence. George W. Bush reached it by using his father’s name to become an elected governor of Texas. He had done nothing to earn or warrant the governorship. From that mediocre performance, he leaped into the Oval Office at the White House where he illustrated The Peter Principle brilliantly, stupidly and with deadly outcomes. It wasn’t that Bush was qualified to become president; he was electable by name recognition.

By his fraudulent weapons of mass destruction claim in Iraq, Bush managed to get 4,400 American troops slaughtered and another 32,000 hideously wounded by IEDs that took off legs and other body parts. He killed off nearly 1.0 million Iraqi civilians while creating 2.5 million refugees. He dropped immoral and amoral depleted uranium bombs that have caused thousands of cancers and birth defects in Iraq and Afghanistan, and will for centuries.

He became a guest on Oprah pitching his book on his decisions. A sixth grader could have made better decisions. One lament came from a mother: “Bush’s daughters are going to their weddings and I’m going to my son’s funeral.â€
