Reply #21: Got news for you: "Bush" doesn't care. [View All]

And the reason that "Bush" is in quotation marks is that he isn't making the decisions; Rove and the Billionaire Boys' Club is calling the tunes.

If they wanted, they could and would shut down the Internet so that those videos wouldn't appear, and neither would DU. But it doesn't matter to them, because (as they well know) these ads only preach to the very small choir, not the public.

Over the Bush years DU, and other web sites, have been filled with coffins, paraplegic Iraqui babies and worse. It hasn't slowed or stopped the war one bit. Because the people who vote, the people whose attention you should have been getting, don't know and don't care.

There is some truth that the Republican-owned media are to blame, but like the media in any venue, they want a good story better than reciting a party line. When did Gore or Kerry hold up a picture of those mutilated children in a public speech and said "I'm ashamed of George Bush for doing this?" Never, because they didn't have the courage or the smarts.

You keep talking maturity? To Hell with maturity! Maturity hasn't gotten Bush out of office. It's time to swing dead cats over the walls of the fortress and yell dirty words up to the parapet. You guys have failed. It's time to let El Zorro take over.
