The Dangerous Bush Legacy

The Dangerous Bush Legacy

Before George Bush W the World could believe that America possibly had a mechanism for keeping itself in compliance with past Treaties and Agreements, that the State Department and Foreign Relations Offices had some kind of binding influence over the Amateur Statesmen who were only elected, temporarily, to Office.

What George Bush W. showed to the World was that any American President could really abrogate any Treaty, any Agreement, any Tradition, any International Law, and do anything he wanted. This Truth really shocked the World. China, Russia, North Korea, who all thought they had standing agreements with America were dumbfounded to find that with the election of a Right Wing Nut, no business conducted, in good faith, in the past mattered the least little bit.

There will be a Bush Legacy. Don’t Trust America. Whatever Treaty, whatever Agreement you come to, lasts only until America, with the worst Education System in the Advanced World, elects another Dangerous Semi-Retarded Nutcase. Then America, automatically, has a completely different foreign policy.

America has destabilized the World. No new President can fix this problem. What America needs to do is Institutionalize its Foreign Policy Treaties. No New President should be able to simply start over again, tabula rasa, blank slate, ignoring all past agreements.

Maybe there needs to be a Foreign Affairs equivalent to the Supreme Court… some Agency that can simply call a halt to Executive Activities that go outside the lines of Curved in Granite Treaties, International Laws, and Solemn Handshake Agreements with other Heads of State… no matter how long ago.
