Say his Name: It's not "feds", "gov't." or "the administration" it's BUSH
Edited on Tue Sep-06-05 02:06 AM by linazelle
BUSH Goddamnit.

BUSH wears the title of POTUS--allegedly the most powerful leader in the free world. BUSH took an oath is to serve, protect and defend the citizens of this country. Yet:

BUSH went on vacation once again and left the country unattended.

(On a side note: By now, BUSH'S vacations should be synonomous with disaster. Next year when BUSH announces his vacation, run for your very lives! Anybody remember when BUSH went last year and threatened to take the U. S. Marshalls off all planes while futures markets were tuning up to place bets on terror attacks--or was that the year before?)

Not only did BUSH go on vacation, Condi went shoe buying in NYC, Dick Cheney went estate buying and BUSH'S entire PR staff went to Greece for a wedding. Obviously BUSH had no backup plan for America's citizens when BUSH hung a "closed" sign on the White House doors.

BUSH returned from vacation knowing a storm was brewing but he was not worried because the storm was not headed for his brother's back yard. Fuck everybody else.

BUSH lied about the levee project. He said it was unpredictable even though massive evidence to the contrary has surfaced.

BUSH said he didn't know about the damage from Katrina until..what? Tuesday but BUSH issued a proclamation declaring a state of emergency on what? Saturday?

BUSH lied to the "local" officials. He promised help but did not send it until he arrived and only then for photo ops. Isn't it funny (not) how BUSH wants to take credit for rescuing everybody but no blame?

BUSH used NOLA as a political opportunity. He staged fake pictures with non-US citizens who were dark skinned to make it appear that he was talking to black people.

BUSH used the tragedy in NOLA to push through the Republican agenda while his media cronies asked the citizens not to politicize the tragedy in NOLA. BUSH used America's horror at his negligence for further take advantage. BUSH sneakily pushed through posse comatatus; hired Halliburton; repealed gasoline laws and started a SCOTUS nomination process while the dead lay unburied in Lake Ponchatrain.

Speaking of SCOTUS, BUSH ordered flags at half staff for one white man, while thousands of dead bodies awaiting decent burials lay in attics and floodwaters and the streets of NOLA.

BUSH sent in the US military to NOLA and then bullied them in front of cameras for yet another photo op hollering the lowest level of soldiers to point their weapons DOWN!! Woooo. Tough guy reliving the military career he never had.

BUSH hides behind the coattails of his momma, daddy, Rush Limpballs, Pickles, the FEMA guy, Bill O'Lielly, Wolf Pricker, et al--while they blame "feds", "local" gov't., "the administration". They never name BUSH when there are negatives. Yet the only one who's responsible for the greatest disaster in modern American history--is none other than....B. U. S. H.

SAY HIS NAME--OFTEN.

BUSH. IS. RESPONSIBLE.

4. It's beyond bush though...
He's one face of the larger republican problem. When you see government as an inherent problem, that leaves you unfit to govern. The modern-day republicans running our country have hollowed out our infrastructure and our support services, so that the slightest shock to normal functioning sets the whole system tumbling down like a house of cards. bush is just one of the many people who need to be held accountable for the looting of our country, the rest of the crony corporatists need to be tarred with this and run out of town as well...

7. I hear you, but I start with BUSH. They protect him by avoiding his name
Edited on Tue Sep-06-05 01:44 AM by linazelle
It's easy to deflect and disperse accountability when you have a blameless entity like "the administration" being mentioned ad nauseum. They insulate BUSH by doing this and I am tired of it.

13. Bush feeders are the problem. Bush is just the monkey doing tricks.
Neocons said in mid 1960s that they needed a "prissy, patrician protestant" to be their patsy president. And they got one.

Why the Dems are talking about Big Oil. Why Gore is going to talk about Global Warming.

Its the cabal.

14. Absolutely; Most contemporary scifi stories have tyrannical corporate
governments in control of everything. We need to make certain, now, that our imaginary dystopic far future doesn't become our near future reality.

5. You are right!
Do NOT say Government, or Feds, or FEMA, or anything that the sheeple connect in their minds to Big Gubmint. They've been trained, like Pavlov's dog, to associate that with those commie librul Dems. Even though the Republicans control everything. Pukes have successfully portrayed themselves as ruggedly independent maverick cowboys who stick up for the little guy and disdain the Beltway. Even though that is complete bullshit and they are the Beltway. And the little guy can drown in shit-strewn flood water as far as they're concerned so they can grab all the prime real estate.

No - It is BUSH. Say it over and over again. Keep repeating it until it gets into their thick skulls.

8. It's Bush AND Republicans. Vote Republicans Out November and 2006.
Republicans voted down levee repairs.

Republicans voted against protective wetlands.

Republicans voted against poor people.

Bush is the figurehead and needs to go, but Republicans can be turned out more easily in the short run. Impeachment will only be possible with non-Republican majorities.

10. The rat bastards will attone!
Call for the immediate resignation of the current administration. We are demanding accountability and calling our elected representatives starting 8 am tomorrow morning (Tues 9-6) in Washington D. C. and asking them to do their jobs by representing the voices of the people. If they do not honor their obligation to their constituents, we will hold them accountable, as well.

Please let the people know that tomorrow is ACCOUNTABILITY DAY!


Peace.
:patriot:
