Guys, Bush won the electoral vote, by our own constitution that means he wins regardless of the popular vote. I know people are thinking he cheated, but even I dont think he would have been capable of doing that at the time. If he had, he would have been caught, they always are (thats the one usefull thing the media does for us). He won the election fair and square, we just have to make sure he doesnt do it again.
This is wrong. He was not only very capable, he was in the perfect position, and it IS in fact what happened. His brother blocked the polls for minorities, his former campaign manager denied the constitutionally protected recount, and clarence thomas, his daddy's appointee gave it all a stamp of approval. It doesn't change the fact that the entire process went completely against:
A. The constitution
B. Democracy
C. Any rational form of ethics
D. Logic
E. An actual election rather than a charade.
The net result?
"He's created more terrorists than 9/11 ever did, the largest deficeit, and many other things."
Here's a list of "many other things":
Started a war using the Geneva Convention as backing, then broke the same rules set forth IN the Geneva Convention (Guantanamo Bay), Iraqi prisons, etc.
Censored public records that would show his faulty service record during wartime, as well as indict him of criminal charges stemming from his involvement with Enron, and the subsequent loss of retirement by thousands of seniors and former employees.
Ramrod through the "Patriot" Act, which is the easiest way to piss on the grave of every veteran this democracy has ever had.
Cut pay, benefits, and lives from our soldiers. "Bring em On!"?!?! You strap on a vest and helmet and go first, chicken shit. And don't start a war we can't afford and then make the troops pay with below poverty line wages and a lack of health care. Especially when the handling of Uranium ordinance by most marines is going to lead to birth defects and cancer for those same soldiers.
Ruin the US's popularity over seas to the lowest level it's EVER been, both through disastrous foreign policy, and outright lies that foreign news channels cover a little better than our own corporate owned entities (also excluding Brittain who's public is basically kept as ignorant as the vast majority of Americans are).
And last of all make the entire country look like a land of lieing, retarded, aggressive, dim-witted, un-educated losers. This also crosses over into costing us money very quickly on cultural sales, i.e. music, movies, clothes, etc.
All of this tied together with the most bloated budget, corporate welfare and out right theft from the American People has lead to:
A global depression the likes of which we haven't seen since 1929, and which took a disastrous WORLD WAR or TWO to fix later.
So yeah, I don't think he's the best guy for the job, regardless of the fact that I HATE Kerry, the gay waffler with botox lips, and a nearly as strong special interest paycheck, which does NOTHING for the country, or the future of our country.
South Park is absolutely right: It's a race between a giant douche and a turd sandwhich.
I for one however think that the GW sandwhich has proven more disastrous than anyone else could hope to be, by being the WORST "strong" leader, in american history.
Scott you need to quit being emotional, your making those of us who hate bush for logical rational and informed reasons look stupid.
Vamp you need to read about 50 books that aren't put out by total douches. You also need to quit trumpeting your opinions so loudly when you are very clearly ill informed at the least. There are valid points to be made in favor of bush, (though few and far between), and you don't even seem clearly educated on those.
Trotterwatch, of course you agree with that
South Park Rules!
Ly, I like green too. Talk about a party with some factual rational basis for providing governance, too bad it's not lucrative enough to actually make it anywhere because they're not whores for the large corporations like the red and blue are.
