The President Has Failed America
The Bush administration has betrayed America and its base as well by failing to deliver on any promise in their six years in office.

THE ECONOMY: From the fool-hardy adventure in Iraq, to tax-cuts for the super-rich, to hand-outs to big-oil and pharmaceutical companies, the Bush administration has put every American family in hock for $150,000 EACH with absolutely NOTHING to show for it. For many families, $150,000 is three to five YEAR’S salary, financed at long term interest, and I can guarantee that in 30 years of paying interest only on this massive debt, the government in 2036 will be forced to roll the debt because there will be no cash to retire it. In terms of the economy, President Bush has failed America, and the pain of this failure will be felt for generations to come.

THE DIVIDER: The Bush administration has failed to unite America, despite the President’s insistence during his first campaign that he is a uniter, not a divider. His political team specializes in splitting constituencies, and creating cleavages in our nation that will take generations to heal. President Bush has divided America such that only the Civil War in 1861, One Hundred and Forty-Five years ago, was our nation more divided. As a uniter, this President has failed miserably.

THE ENVIRONMENT: The President, in the face of overwhelming scientific evidence, in the face of overwhelming empirical evidence of melting icecaps, drowning polar bears, massive chunks of the Antarctic Ice shelf breaking off, the reduction of 150 Glaciers in Glacier National park 100 years ago to only 35 today, and a prediction by climatologists and polar studies scientists that in 35 years there will be NO glaciers in Glacier National Park. The President has completely ignored the Kyoto Protocol, or even any effort to live up to its goals. Once again, by failing to act and blocking attempts to help save the world we live in, the President has failed America.

7. Americans have failed America. They believed the crap and are
such cowards that they are willing to give up freedoms for fake security. They're willing to let others run everything everything so as not to be bothered to turn off the TV and get involved in running their own gov'ts - from city to federal.

8. HE HAS FAILED HUMANITY....His Upcoming Book in 6 years::
LOST OPPORTUNITIES

Bush has the Opportunity to create a much better World but he clings to obsolete Notions and Ideas.

Bush seems like he lost his brain somewhere in HomeDepot.
