After thinking I couldn't despise these people any more ...
Edited on Wed Sep-14-05 04:25 PM by lancdem
I read this. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/09/13/AR2005091300588.html

Bush already has dispatched his top strategist, Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove, and other aides to assemble ideas from agencies, conservative think tanks, GOP lawmakers and state officials to guide the rebuilding of New Orleans and relocation of flood victims. The idea, aides said, is twofold: provide a quick federal response that comports with Bush's governing philosophy, and prevent Katrina from swamping his second-term ambitions on Social Security, taxes and Middle East democracy-building.

Humanity means nothing - it's all about saving Bush's agenda and rebuilding N.O. in a way "that comports with Bush's governing philosophy." No wonder Bush's buddies are getting all tbe contracts.

:mad:

3. Every tragedy, bu$h uses it for HIS benefit and agenda

9-11,war in Iraq and now Katrina.Oh wait...it isn't over yet either. I'm sure there will be more tragedies that will happen under his watch,and he will use more deaths and more losses to make his life bigger and better....and then claim the hero status.
I have NEVER seen anyone in my life that takes other people's tragedies and losses and uses it to make things better for HIM. God Almighty he is the most despicable bastard on this planet. I hate him with a passion.

4. I'm not supporting what he's doing but we would do the same if we were in
power.

Think about the depression era and the New Deal and the National Recovery Act. People were told not to shop at places that did not display the NRA eagle in their windows. Roosevelt tried to stack the Supreme Court and I think he tried to suspend some laws.


We are not in power now and we are getting just what we would give if we were. I don't like it because I think we would have much more social justice in our plan but people get the government they deserve.

I told everyone who voted for Bush in 2004 that I could that not only will Dems be hurt by the upcoming policies but so will those who voted for this administration. People have to hurt enough before they demand a change. People don't hurt enough yet and they haven't lost enough yet but it's getting closer to happening since this administration is set on shoving their agenda down our throats come hell or high water. (Pun intended)
