  1. We have the worse economy in 50 years, and it is Bush's fault!

    Bush is eliminating our freedoms, eliminating our jobs, eliminating our health care, eliminating our
    education system, he is basically eliminating our wealth as a nation, and he's eliminating our
    security as a nation. This is what Bush is doing.

    Meanwhile, under Bush's tutelage, corporate greed is running rampant, the big guys are making
    millions in ill-begotten profits, big corrupt companies are going "bankrupt" here at home, while
    they stash away billions of dollars in offshore accounts, in the process these Executives are
    running away with the loot, but us little guys, millions of us little guys are losing our jobs left
    and rigt, losing our health care, losing our life savings and losing our retirement income.

    The big guys, Bush's crooked friends, are profitting from this sad situation, mainly by taking
    everything away from us little guys. This is a Bush legacy. And Bush has still not given up on
    the idea of privatizing Social Security. Like Al Sharpton said, we should privatize George Bush,
    send him back to his cowchip pasture in Crawford, Texas, where he belongs. He does NOT belong in
    public service.

    If it's not enough that Bush is cutting taxes on the richest 1%, he is also allowing these rich
    crooks to increase their offshore tax shelter accounts, so this way they are not even paying any
    taxes at all. This is what Bush is allowing corporate America to get away with.

    The number of uninsured Americans has doubled under Bush. More of us are un-insured than ever
    before, and for those of us who are lucky enough to have health insurance, for the time being, we
    are paying more than ever before for our basic health care services, and we are getting less health
    care than ever before, thanks to Bush. Pay more, get less, this is Bush's legacy for America.

    The Republican sponsoring Pharmaceutical companies are gouging us as much as they can get away, that
    is without killing us, the way parasites do, we pay double and triple the price for the same exact
    medicine that everyone else in the world gets. HMO's are denying life saving operations to patients,
    and Insurance companies are unnecessarily raising our rates. This is a Bush legacy.

    Health care for all is achievable, very achievable, we are the richest country in the world, or at
    least used to be, until Bush showed up. Governor Howard Dean's plan for a National Health Care plan
    would create jobs, and it would cost less than half of Bush's tax cuts. The vast majority of
    Americans should support this guaranteed Health plan for all, certainly, the vast majority of
    Americans did not receive anything from Bush's tax cuts anyways.

    Homeland and National Security is inadequate, this is endangering Americans everywhere, because
    States do not have the money to pay for more Police, Fire, and other Emergency services, thus we are
    at more risk than ever before, and all the Bushies have to offer us is more plastic wrappings and
    DUCT TAPE.

    Bush uses New York Firemen and Firehouses as backdrops for photo ops, and then later on legislates
    to deny Firemen and other Federal workers the basic worker protections they need, and then Bush's
    policies lead to the closing of those Firehouse anyways and more people get unemployed. This is a
    Bush legacy. He gets away with all this, because we have a government by sound byte, what the people
    see on TV is exactly the opposite of what the people get in reality.

    Folks, let me break it to you gently, we are being duped.

    Say NO to more deregulation of business!

    Say NO to more tax cuts for the rich!

    Say NO to the Republicans!

    Bush has got to go!

    Bush has GOT to go!

    Liberals take the side of the powerless, whereas Conservatives take the side of the powerful.
    Liberals stand up against the oppressors, Conservatives stand with the oppressors and against the
    oppressed. Liberals like me stand up against the forces of power and against the evil who are rich
    and the evil who are powerful.

  2. you have that all backwards....with George W. Bush we pay less (tax breaks for all including the
    middle class) and get more (somthing is getting done about 9-11)!

    After the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, which killed six and injured 1,000; President Clinton
    promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished. After the 1995 bombing in Saudi
    Arabia, which killed five U.S. military personnel; Clinton promised that those responsible would
    be hunted down and punished. After the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia, which killed 19
    and injured 200 U.S. military personnel; Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted
    down and punished. After the 1998 bombing of U.S. embassies in Africa, which killed 224 and
    injured 5,000; Clinton promised that those responsible! would be hunted down and punished. After
    the 2000 bombing of the USS Cole, which killed 17 and injured 39 U.S. sailors; Clinton promised
    that those responsible would be hunted down and punished. Maybe if Clinton had kept his promise,
    an estimated 3,000 people in New York and Washington, D.C. that are now dead would be alive today.
    And, now that Bush is taking action to bring these people to justice, we have opponents charging
    him with being a war monger...

    Why was it that the Clinton Administration spent more money chasing down Bill Gates than Osama
    bin Laden?

  3. "We have the worse economy in 50 years, and it is Bush's fault!

    What? under Jimmy Carter, life was much worse: both the jobless rate AND interest rate were double
    what they are today.

    Bush is eliminating our freedoms, eliminating our jobs, eliminating our health care, eliminating our
    education system, he is basically eliminating our wealth as a nation, and he's eliminating our
    security as a nation. This is what Bush is doing. "

    You're on some cool meds..... I'm not in a PoliceState, my job is stable and great, I have Blue
    Cross, my kid's School is recognised both at the State and National level as being "Exemplary". The
    local High School as well. Neither were accredited when I graduated in '79 (Carter administration)
    Why to you have to lie in effort to make a point???

    You know, this kind of reminds me of my days at Stanford. We used to sit in room 115 there in pine
    hall smoke grass , hold violent protests in the name of peace and lecture people about [censored] we know
    nothing about. Then came reality and our disnified views disappeared like a fart when the elevator
    doors open.Good old Stanford Ca.....Hey....Wait a minute.... I have never even been to
    Californication.....never mind!!!

    Ah but the figures of the unemployed that are being released do not tell the real story as over
    one million long term unemployed are no longer carried on the stats thus not included in the
    official figures.

    And interest rates are dangerously low as we are on the brink of deflation, a circumstance normally
    associated with economic depressions.

    And never has job erosion been as significant as it has been in the last ten years during both, the
    Clinton and Bush administrations. The fact is that the real acceleration of jobs going overseas
    occurred in the last months of Clinton but that does not excuse the continuation of that
    administrations policies in that regard by the current administration.

    Well, education should be come less of a factor since we are destined to become a nation of burger
    flippers... A good technical education will no longer be a requirement. We can spend our time of
    "feel good" stuff instead...

  12. As is yours, Tool. Is it not true that the jobless rate was double in 1979? My lake-front home is
    financed at 4.7% fixed and I have $550,000 in assets (real estate+securities), wow, I guess I stand
    corrected: this IS the worst economy in 50 years! If Gore was in, I might have busted into the
