Do Not Be Fooled -- "Management" Will Martyr *
Bushco is simply a tool for Management, meaning Old Banking Money. They've cut Bushco loose. But, please don't forget about Old Banking Money. They haven't gone anywhere.

1. The puppetmasters are still in place.
They will survive the loss of one puppet - and not a very good one at that.

2. he made the mistake
of thinking he was in charge. They've been wanting to cut him loose for awhile now. And he keeps giving them ample opportunities.

5. That's why understanding the situation is important
As horrible as Bush is, he personally didn't cause the disaster. The magnitude of the disaster is a direct and inevitable result of defunding government programs at all levels for 30 years. We have cut and cut and cut. We thought we could continue to get away with it.

Bush is a deplorable human being, and he probably is going to suffer extensive political damage because of this.

But the issues behind the disaster are larger. The hell we are watching on TV is the logical result of "starving the beast": we have a government incapable of functioning at the levels expected of an advanced supwepower.

6. Grover Norquist - "Reduce government until it can be drowned in a bathtub"
Once you drown government in a bathtub, you also drown tens of thousands of others.

7. Go after Bush first... then once he's gone, keep chopping away...
at the oligarchy until it's completely destroyed. Removing Bush is merely a battle in the war for our country.
