I agree with most of what bush says...

[LynnTheDem]

IF what he was saying was TRUE and IF he actually DID what he fucking SAYS!!!

YES I TOO want CLEAR SKIES.

YES I TOO want HEALTHY FORESTS.

YES I TOO want NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND.

YES I TOO SUPPORT OUR TROOPS.

But bush SAYS ONE THING and does the OPPOSITE.

-his "Clear Skies" makes it EASIER for industry to POLLUTE the air.

-his "Healthy Forests" makes it easier for logging industry to gut our forests.

-his "NCLB" means almost EVERY CHILD being left behind.

-his "support" for our troops means lying them into a bullshit geopolitical war of choice, war of aggression, without even enougb RIFLES AND AMMO AND BODY ARMOR and they're STILL short on RIFLES and AMMO and BODY ARMOR TWO YEARS LATER.

When faced with ANY TRICKSTER CONMAN, YOU DON'T WATCH THE LIPS, YOU WATCH THE HANDS. WATCH BUSH'S HANDS.

1. I believe this:

"I'll give you one other thought. Let me just leave you with one other thought about taxing the rich. You know how that works. A lot of the rich are able to get accountants, so they don't -- they're able to dodge. You've seen it before. We're going to tax the rich, and then they figure out how not to get taxed. So guess who ends up paying? You do. And we're not going to let him do it to us. We're not going to let him wreck that economy by running up our taxes. " GWB aka Silverspoon Sociopath

4. Even though I did not vote for him, when I heard some of the things he

said about his style of doing things, I agreed with them and thought to myself that he would not be so bad after all. I remember him saying he would appoint an independent commission to see if global warming was a real problem. If so he would do something about it - no if's and's or but's about it. I thought this sounded very, very good. I am a no-nonsense sort of person, and I believed he was going to be the same. As we all know, when his commission actually told him global warming was a problem - not what he WANTED to hear-that was the end of that.

I remember him saying his style was to let others run their departments without a lot of oversite- but to be held RESPONSIBLE for what happens. Nobody has even remotely been held responsible for starting a war that has killed and maimed our soldiers - for absolutely nothing.

I could go on and on, but the point is that he sounded good to start with, and if he had actually done even a little bit of what he promised to do, he would not be THAT bad.



Nobody ever sees themselves as other people do, but that he actually believes the things he says about himself is scary because he sees no need to improve and he is president and his personal failing affect all of us.
