Bush Downfall Predictions

[ThomWV]

Here is my prediction for Bush's downfall. It will come from renewed heavy fighting in Afghanistan and the public outcry that will come from the necessary redeployment of troops fresh home from Iraq. Timeing will be just right for a confidence collapse by the electorate just befor the election. That's my prediction anyway.

1. US is trying to get out of Afghanistan

they turned it over to the Germans, and now Canada's having to send more troops.

3. Yes but,

The polls will show that Bush reelection seems unlikely but on election day, whoa and behold the miracle of Diebold! The votes will show a victorious upset causing Shrub to win in a landslide. FOX will then conclude that polls are useless and that the american people are "smarter" then they are given credit for. :puke:

4. I think you're close

but I for one HOPE that is all there is. I predict Iraq is really going to be one great big huge fucking mess in about 3-6 months time - well before the election - God only knows who we're going to bomb next - and how many more millions of jobs can be lost in the next 12-13 months and how low can the dollar go.

5. My predictions on Bush's downfall

The economy is seeing gains from several months ago. But haven't you heard about all the lay offs? Have you noticed the price of oil is at $32.00 a barrel? These are indication that the economy will decline in four to six months time. Between Feb and Apr of 2004. There may be a recession or slowdown then. I also predict the deficit will grow next year to about $550 to $600 billion. Basically what I am saying is the economy will be in decline.

Bush can't spend anymore. He can't give anymore tax cuts. The Fed can't cut rates anymore. These are the reasons why the economy hasn't completely sputtered already. No where to go but down.

Second, Afghanistan will become a problem. Letting bin Laden get away was the biggest mistake made by Bush Administration. He's educated, he understands American politics and history. And he's disciplined. I expect a Tet Offensive type of attack in Afghanistan, not Iraq.

People will hear this and say "What the fuck?"

The problems in Iraq will continue to deteriorate. The Shi'a will continue to be divided and may declare their own independance and take all the oil with them.

The Iraqi's will begin attacking Turkish troops (they hate the Turks more than anyone). Turkey will use this as an excuse to either a) pull out, b) launch their own attacks against Iraq/Kurds. The Kurd's will rebel and hell will break loose there too.

Basically things won't get better and people are going to say that Bush is a fucking idiot.
