Article "Corporate entities say Bush Has To Go"

[janekat]

Found this article on the site that is at war with Free Republic. Pretty crazy article BUT the reason I'm posting it is because it claims that the media is now turning on Bush. It also claims that there are a lot of people who want to be rid of Bush - that threats against him are increasing and security is being increased. This article sounds like it could have a "grain" of truth in it.

Title: "Bush Has To Go"
Controlling the News - Part 20

The following report is taken directly from in-house memos from a high-level member of a major American television network under date of September 30th through October 1st, 2003. .....

.....(September 21, 2003) “… the seasons change and the political season is also changing, gentlemen. Corporate, not only ours but most of the other major entities, have decided, reluctantly it is admitted, that Bush has to go. Why reluctantly? Because of the money we have given him for his campaigns…the President’s actions have so unnerved corporate America, (and this includes Bush Sr.)! that the market will never rebound until the irritant of Bush Jr’s chronic stupidity is gone and forgotten.

To date, the media has been either supportive or at the least, neutral, towards the Prez and his boys but the Rubicon has been passed and he now universally is seen as dangerous to the economy and worse, and is rousing the mass of the pubic…this is certainly not a good idea. Flagrant corporate corruption, outrageous cronyism (i.e. Halliburton et al), soldiers threatening mutiny, furious families of same, very dangerous behavior on the part of North Korea and on and on…Bush has the personality of a reformed drunk, narrow minded and so self-centered as to be poured into concrete…he is actually a stupid man (we met with him recently and frankly, I personally would never hire the man except to take out the trash on Friday nights) who is thoroughly controlled by his fanatical handlers….

....The general aim now is to distance ourselves from the whole miserable crew…if we remain neutral in these attacks, we may suffer the accusations that we are pro-Bush and that will hit us in the ad revenue. The key to all of this, gentlemen, is to watch the New York Times editorial pages and be advised accordingly….”

...(Sept 22) The rumors now growing inside the Beltway have it that in the event the Bush forces see themselves in danger of defeat in 2004, they will have to find a scapegoat. Both the Pentagon and the CIA have been ruled out. They can thoroughly sabotage the White House plans if they are pushed and note the CIA is now doing just this.

....(Sept 25) Note that a purloined copy of a security report about assassination attempts and threats against the President is circulating.

....The summation is that to date, there have been more “viable” threats against Bush in one month than in the entire reign of Clinton I… beefed up anti-aircraft on the roof of the White House plus no one is allowed to get within shooting distance of the Prez when he ventures out to raise more money.

....(October 3) The NYT is starting in on the Bush Roast now. Before we commit ourselves too firmly, let’s see how it flies…story about Rumsfeld’s German sister…lives in Schleswig-Holstein…holding Party meetings in the White House beer cellar…of course the Prez can’t come. One drink and there goes the press conferences which are inarticulate enough as it is.

...(October 4) We have just finished looking through a long official report that proves conclusively that the Iraqi oil bonanza touted both by the Prez and Cheney was , like WMD, a pack of lies. The system was shot to hell and the wonderful oil revenues that Bush pushed to justify the war to corporations, were as phony as the rest of his bs. And what’s even prettier, children, is that they all knew it long before they shoved it down our throats. There is no way this can be kept from the public and we are all agreed to give it full rein without the usual Rovespins. Bush’s goose is cooked and unless he is neutralized, he is only capable of more terrible mischief. We can all thank God that he can’t move troops out of Iraq or we would have had an atomic war with North Korea by now and all of Asia would glow at night.

1. Talk is cheap

When I see the major news outlets demanding unscripted press conferences and unfettered access to Guantanamo and its prisoners, then I'll believe the Media Whores have rediscovered the First Amendment. As it is, I try to keep a lid on my outrage, because every time I think the corporate news media have sunk to their lowest depth, they get out the shovel or post hole digger and get busy.

2. It sounds like rubbish to me

That site is the one that (I believe) was founded by a founder of Freeperville who's now engaged in a war with them. In any case, it sounds utterly phony to me.

3. probably - wishful (and demented) thinking on my part....

4. What the heck is up with this guy???

It's like he's done a complete 180 and THEN some.

5. Maybe he saw the light

and is just now "getting it".

If it stirs up some honest debate in Freeperville, I'm all for it. (And they seem to thrive on these types of friend-of-a-friend, my sister's hairdresser's boyfriend, secret, hush-hush, insider kinda' stories.)

6. no link but ...

Saw this on the news earlier and they were saying he was plummeting in the polls and they showed him golfing (AGAIN!). He was then asked about it and he said, "Well if they don't want me anymore they'll have to find someone else for the job."

He did not seem upset at all about it ... maybe he WANTS OUT just like LBJ wanted out? Maybe shrub WANTS OUT! ???

???????????????? :shrug: YOU TELL ME AND THEN WE'LL BOTH KNOW!!!!

:dem: :kick:

7. This sounds like BS, but Corporate America DOES want Bush gone

Bush's mistakes and failures have started to cost US businesses a lot of money, and Bush and his crew have shown themselves to be completely incapable of dealing with serious financial issues - like the Euro - that will have a profound effect on US business and Corporate America in general.

"The following report is taken directly from in-house memos from a high-level member of a major American television network under date of September 30th through October 1st, 2003."

But this is total BS.

8. And a Poorly Written FAKE,Too

You can tell that the guy who authors the site is the same guy who authors the "memos." Unless he's just paraphrasing, which is kinda vague, but the tone, voice, and grammer and nearly identical. I gotsa degreee in English's... :evilgrin:

FAKE!!!
