3. Because he has a twisted insatiable desire to out perform his father |

Which is completely different than McCain who has a twisted insatiable desire to outperform his father and grandfather

7. Yes, greed. that is all. Period. EOS. LOOTING. Oh, and changing laws to install Fascism and |
|
devastate the American Dream, both politically and socially. But getting beyond-Croesus wealthy, for himself, Cheney, and all his brothers, cronies, and owners (e.g., Saudi royals; Chinese; Carlyle group).
And by "owners", I mean "owners."

12. BushCo has been plotting our destruction for decades |
|
They've killed our Presidents and other pro-American-people leaders, they've perpetrated mass scandals intended to destroy our image in the world, and Bush and his forebears took over the CIA and turned it into an all-too-evil tool. Their job was to destroy the US and build up some other region of the world and a select group of people in it (because Constitutional democracy is supposedly dangerous). When observing "for whom it is good", it's pretty easy to determine the likely culprit, especially with the putative Bush blue blood ... all of this just mho of course.

Being sodomized in college with a broomstick by his friends probably had a lot to do with his current beliefs.

14. Because the American electorate is stupid |
|
And to quote Forest Gump "Stupid is as stupid does"
2000 should have been a total blowout. But enough people bought into that aww-shucks bullshit of the Chimp and we've got what we got. These same rubes were the ones who were falling for Palin's bullshit but I think enough of them are waking up thanks to the shocking economy and the Wall Street meltdown.

We knew he was going to fail, of course, and leave us in debt--Texas was just a training ground. If Congress and the Supreme Court had any guts, however, he would never have been able to do nearly as much damage.

18. As I have written before -- because he is a SOCIOPATH. He enjoys |

seeing others suffer, and seeing a whole country suffer -- well, I'm sure his masturbatory fantasies these days are pretty satisfying--for him, that is.

20. He can't help it, he has run everything he was ever in charge of into to ruin |
|
He just is not very good at "executive experience". Plus he is greedy and likes cronies and hanger ons and he is a dumbass and a real asshole. That about covers it.

I think Rove, et. al. sat down with a calculator and figured out how much they could funnel away before the American people started to squawk.

29. He is not a very bright person and he surrounded himself with |
|
other not so bright people who are willing to always say "yes" to him. Very dangerous combination. I liked the fact that Obama said he wanted Biden because he wanted someone to challenge him and make him think and not always agree with him.

30. i dunno if u noticed but |
|
oil sure is expensive...
and given his background...and his families background... and his friends background...
we got two wars going on... if you look at ole Dicks backbround ... and his families background.... and his friends background...
i think youll find all the answers youd ever wanna know.
a guy whos family makes money off of oil. and a guy who makes money off of war.
by the way tho, they both make money off of war... good ole industrial military complex that bushes invested in along time ago. bushs grandfather even sold stuff to the nazis in ww2.

31. Because his mother is psychotic and his father was absent. |
|
Besides, why would any of his ventures work out when all the others had failed?
The man's a total and complete failure. He will go down in history as the worst mistake we ever made.
