He's lucky the dem's didnt hold an impeachment trial and if he was the leader of any other country he would be on trial for war crimes. it's insanity to me that some cant see what kind of scumbag he really is. Katrina, Iraq, stem cell reasearch, the economy, our veterans, climate change, Bin Laden, jobs, the list goes on and on.
he and McCain voted no to raise minimum wage, voted no to increase funding for our veterans, voted no to fully fund no child left behind, voted no on stem cell research. they gave the wealthiest 1% the largest tax break in history, gave big oil huge tax breaks, they said the war would be over in 3 to 6 months, they didn't properly equip our troops, they didn't find WMD's, they said Bin Laden was no longer a threat. while Louisana and Alabama was drowning he was playing golf, Condi was buying shoes, and the head of FEMA joked " i hope this doesn't ruin my vacation". it's a disgrace!
gas is 4 bucks a gallon but big oil continues to make record profits. energy costs has doubled and tripled in some area's. we are borrowing money from China to buy oil from the Saudi's, were trillions in debt. our wounded troops come home and cant even get the care they need and deserve. our own citizens were called refugee's and his wife had the audacity to say they're better off now then before the storm. millions of jobs were shipped overseas, good jobs. people in Michigan and Ohio are scrambling to make it week to week. the housing market is the worst since the depression, people are losing there homes or watching thier homes value drop and their payments go up.
this all happened under Bush's watch. thats a fact! he didn't inherit any of these problems and certainly not ALL of them. he's incharge so he's responsable it's that's simple and plain to see. the president's basic responsabilty is to uphold the constitution. that life liberty and the pursuit of happiness for ALL Americans ( only the top 5% of the country for him ). the right to privacy ( which his homeland security violated ) freedom of speech and expression and the right to assemble peacefully. ( protesters are now given specific locations, usually far away from where those they wish to protest including him are speaking and alot are arrested illegally) his government did whatever they wanted whenever they wanted and used fear of another terrorist attack to spit on the constitution and ignore the needs and wants of the people to achieve thier political agenda's. and who gained from this? the factory worker? the teacher? the police officer? or the richest 1% the military industrial complex and big oil?
id say that makes him worse than Carter. Jimmy is guilty of being too nice. and admittedly he was weak but he has a kind heart and truly cares about the poor and the helpless as demonstrated by his world reknowned humanitarian and peace negotiating efforts.
I mocked your last one, but this is actually an argument against Bush. All your facts are wrong. But at least you know what you think that bush is the devil.
Now if only you actually knew about economics, balance of powers, and taxes. You'd realize how wrong your argument really is.
