Conniving, Greedy, Lying, and Deceitful
by Duncan E. Beaton

I have been a registered Republican since the early 1950s, as has my wife, Dot. In fact our dedication to the Grand Old Party was such that we used to ride our horses around our Buckingham Township, Pa., neighborhood with Republican candidates' bumper stickers on their backsides. Now, we never considered the implication, but we found out later that one of those candidates was a real "horsesass." If we had horses today, that's right where we'd stick George Bush's bumper sticker, on our horse's asses.

This is the worst administration in our memory. As a Fiscal Conservative, I began disliking Bush when he proposed major tax cuts as a means to get elected in 2000. Despite that, given the choice of two inept presidential candidates we voted for Bush as "the lesser of two evils." Little did we know.

Once elected he immediately borrowed $49 billion to fund the massive tax cut, which primarily benefited the wealthy, increased the deficit and the national debt. After Sept. 11, 2001, I wrote an op-ed that appeared in the Bangor Daily News condemning the atrocity, but suggesting we need to find the root cause which drove those Arabs to do what they did. Despite numerous articles by people more knowledgeable than I or this administration on matters of the Middle East, urging the same, it has stupidly maintained its tunnel vision focusing only on terrorism and the terrorist, but not the root cause.

Instead, three years ago, Cheney (Halliburton), Bush and Rumsfeld, had allegedly already made plans to invade Iraq which many people suspect was for its oil. They built the case for war by giving us and Congress false information about Iraq's stockpile of weapons of mass destruction and its involvement in the Sept. 11 attacks. All lies with no foundation in fact.

1. Funny, that, and so true...and it is the same tone I am hearing from

many 'rock rib' GOP types in my area as well....

2. I love that...

if I could find a horse, I would do it. ...On second thought, horses are rather dignified creatures. I wouldn't do that to them.

Cheney can be impeached too.

With the two of them removed from office, Ted Stevens (Alaska) would be president.

“Clearly, it should be the right of a state that has wild fish to protect its fish without an economic analysis … Alaska has half the coastline of the United States. Our state harvests 60% of all commercial fish harvested in the United States,” said Stevens. “I myself doubt seriously that we would ever be able to protect wild fish if we had aquaculture off of our shores.”

6. Ted "Temper Tantrum" Stevens? Not so bad?

Ugh.

7. But he wants to save the fish

and pets! I admit I don't know much about him, that's why I brought it up. He has to be a flight of stairs above what we've got.
