In the link Bush is quoted as saying: "Problems that face our society are oftentimes problems that, you know, require something greater than just a government program or a government counselor to solve," he said. "Intractable problems, problems that seem impossible to solve, can be solved. There is the miracle of salvation that is real, that is tangible, that is available for all to see."
More mysticism from the fascist's mouth. A "miracle of salvation" is and cannot be termed "real" except to the person who a abelief that miracles, coming from some intangible and unprovable source, in this case, of course the Christian god, are "tangible" What a bunch of gooblygook and this is why Bush reaches those bellievers--it is easy to fool those who cannot think beyond this mysticism of "miracles"-that a "tangible". Disgusting that he can get up there and say these things--unfortuneately religion that demands little thought from it's believers, is vulnerable to the evil persons like Bush who seek to capitalize on it's vagueries and inabililties of people to think past the platitudes. This is what happens---now look at the photo op
Another one--this is disgusting--I am sorry if this offends any believers here but--it is absolutely disgusting to me.
The problems that face our society are rooted in you and your disdain for the citiznes of this country right from the beginning, by superceding the vote counting and pretending that the Supreme Court, the one loaded with your buddies, had a right, a legal right to decide an election. You continue to treat your own citizens as if they were your enemy and you pretend to be righteous in doing so simply so you can continue your killing spree in the ME. You have taken us down to the bottom where the muck hangs out, and pretend that you have done more for the peace of the world than any other president. You are a disgrace, George Bush, to this country and the sooner you are outa there, the better. You take our money, spend millions of it on making more millions for your election treasure chest,and seem to think nothing of it. We are the chumps here, folks. We are chumped by our own Dmeocrats, who most likely, judging from their pathetic performance these past three years--pathetic, selfish performance, I will add, will wimp away and give him everything he asks for regarding the faith based money--I have no fight left to scream about this. He knows which buttons to push and he gets away with it time and time after time and there is no reason to think it will be otherwise on this item either
It is a terrible thing what has happened and will happen to my country -- I fear he is well on his way to being elected--in whatever way he has to. What a tragedy was allowed to happen when NO ONE except the black caucaus saw fit to challenge Bush's coup. NO ONE--they all just stood by and let it happen.
What has happened since that capitulation? Have we gained seats in the congress--NO--who would vote for a wimp or a person connected to the wimp party? We were attacked by terrorists and there are rumblings that Bush allowed it to happen in order to push his wars--the first on Afganistan and now Iraq. Both are miserable failures--but someone make a lot of money and that someone (s) does not particularly care how many died on both sides to give them those contracts.
and what else has he gotten away with? Everything he initiated has come to pass. The medicare fiasco, he is weakened SS, he has weakened our education system, he has weakened our healt care system and he will continue to weaken every social program in his evil path that does not give an opportunity for the rich to exploit it--so he will privatize it all while he is up there. MEanwhile we see photo ops and we know he is making money on our tax money--spending it to go here and there, pretending to be visiting , for instance, Martin Luther's Gravesite, as an afterthought to his fund raising campaign in that state. NO ONE objects.
I won't even apologize for being negative. Just scroll on by if you think it defeatist.
