yeah i think you're totally correct. it sounds like its maybe about bush. in the beginning he had a lot of support, but after we had seen the outcome of his judgment [or lack thereof] people started to rip on him and make jokes about his leadership skills. they mention the word 'sagacity' which is wisdom; i think they're saying that although the president may not have made wise decisions, we ultimately made the decision to put him in office, and we need to stand behind him despite his stupidity. i really like the line 'so be angry at yourself, if only we did not deserve this.'
The "Bush Thing" is kinda too easy to use as an answer. This song is not just about politics, but society in general. Bush was not the only president that has led to where our country, and world, is heading. But in the big picture, isn't everything happening leading down to where the end point is?

One after another, nobody stands behind the ones they have chosen
One after another, nobody stands behind the ones they've selected
Nobody stands behind the nation they've selected.

Nobody stands behind the nation they've selected.
This could mean Bush, but could mean Obama as well. The important point...
This could mean Bush, but could mean Obama as well. The important point I think the singer is trying to make is that everything you see in the world is of no real importance.
Mass media, society, etc. is trying to blow everything out of proportion to create fear. Disease, war, crime, all of this is bad, but why should people worry if God has their back?
The last lines of "So be angry at yourself, If only we did not deserve this" is awesome! Basically this is not about a political vote, but a reflection on how we as mankind have let our values and cultural standards drop so low, that we now reap what we have sown.
I agree with this a lot. It's mostly saying if you're going to put someone in office that doesn't make the right choices, oh well because YOU voted for him.

Yes, you said it. The last lines is like, You chose this so be angry at yourself, meaning don't be mad at everyone/someone else for something that YOU yourself have done wrong.
