Bush continues to take this country backwards!
There is so much to say, but it has been said over and over; once again, Bush shows how weak he is by catering to the right wing politicians and religious fundamentalists. I guess he just could not find a woman or a minority that would please fundamentalists - we are surely not surprised by that, since they do not like either one in positions of power and control.

A New Position for Bush?
With the investigation of Vice-President Cheney's staff, there is a rumor going around Washington that Cheney may resign. Constitutional scholars are suggesting that if that happens, George Bush will probably be promoted to the job!

We can make a difference!
Two days ago, the House of Representatives was poised to dramatically increase proposed cuts to crucial health care, nutritional and educational services. But individuals in this country fought back with over 30,000 phone calls and 130,000 personal letters to Congress as part of a "virtual march" on Washington. Hours before the vote was scheduled to occur, top Republicans were forced to call it off—citing a sudden drop in support even among their own party.

Vote tomorrow on massive budget cuts!
As soon as tomorrow morning, the House of Representatives will consider a Republican amendment to permanently slash funding for basic health care, nutrition and education services for the poor. The budget proposal already calls for $35 billion in cuts, but top Republicans want to push it up to $50 billion. Meanwhile, the same budget proposal calls for $70 billion in new tax breaks, largely for the wealthy.
The hypocrisy of the Republican plan to slash programs like Medicaid, food stamps, and student loans while offering new budget-busting tax breaks to the wealthy is being recognized across the country. And yet evangelical Christian leaders continue to support this inept behavior!

Bush's job rating continues to drop
CNN.com - Bush's job rating continues to drop - Oct 17, 2005
I hope you right wingers and religious fundamentalists out there are taking note; you do not represent America - you are just louder than everyone else!
After the embarrassing "soldiers interview" last week, I am shocked that his approval rating is not a minus number. This president and his administration are an insult to the intelligence of all thinking people of the world! It is curious to me that none of you right wingers have said anything about the interview farce; silence means consent. The blind see only what the blind want to see!

How to win friends and influence people!
US Ambassador to the United Nations, John Bolton , in his first speech in Europe since taking his post in August:
... Bolton reiterated that Washington is prepared to work outside the United Nations if the world body's flaws cannot be repaired. 'We look at it in a kind of cost-benefit way,' he said. 'If it's not solving problems, what do we do to fix it? And if we can't fix it, where else can we look to have those problems solved?'
Bolton's temper flared briefly when some in the audience laughed at his assertion that America's contribution to maintaining world security is a form of overseas aid.
'If you would prefer us to withdraw to Fortress America, get up and say so,' he snapped. 'Yes,' replied one man in the audience, but Bolton later said the United States would not retreat into isolationism.

CNN.com - New York subway system on alert
Over the last few years, every time someone, especially Bush, Cheney or Rumsfeld, start talking about the "war on terrorism" and how important the Iraq war is to that "war on terrorism", we see a headline like the one above. Check the record; challenge me if I am wrong!
I am sure it is just a coincidence; lets see what develops. Maybe this time there is really something to be concerned about; if so it will be the first time since the Bush bullshit started!

Bush and his lies!
It is reported that tonight Bush will state the following in his speech on the war and terrorism: "Osama bin Laden and his terrorist organization regard Iraq as their "central front" in the war on humanity -- and that the U.S. must recognize the country's central role in the war on terror. The president said worldwide terrorism thrives "like a parasite."
You know, this may be true, ... NOW! But it was not true before Bush and his cronies lied their way into a war!
The worst part of this is he expects us to believe him! No, what is worse than that is many people do!!!
