George Bush is not a failure.
For the corporate kleptocrats who gave him the White House he is the beloved son in whom they are well pleased. Certainly he has failed the American people but that it was not for their wellbeing that he was handed the highest office in the land. He was not sent to protect rights of the poorest people or even the beleaguered middle class. He was not put in power to promote world peace or national unity. He sleeps well at night knowing that he has taken care of those who cared enough for him to salvage a life that had been nothing but a string of failures and allow him to surpass his father’s brief reign. Now he may be an expendable liability to his masters but please don’t call him a failure.

2. OK he was a stupid lying sack of shit who hates common workers
He was a great success in taking middle class taxpayers for a ride and transferring the wealth to the wealthy. He was a great success at taking aid from the poor and transferring it to the wealthy. He was fantastic at hoodwinking so many Americans long enough for them to vote for him.

He is, indeed, the worst president (stolen office) this country has ever seen.

4. For The Suits, He's a Spectacular Success
Georgie is the Gold Standard. He'll serve as long as his masters will it to be so. When he becomes a liability, or a danger to them . . . . he'll be sacrificed.

Did we ever think the country could be brought so close to fascist control? God, for Nixon . . .

5. George Bush is a total failure
He failed to "uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America" as he swore to when he took his oath of office, and don't you forget that! Pleas stop repeating 'talking points'. It does us no good.

6. "Preserve, Protect and Defend"
I was always hesitant to take the step -- but Bush himself has admitted his own crimes. He should be impeached. He has not preserved the Constitution, he has relieved himself on it. He has not protected it, he has violated it. He has not defended it, he has stomped it into the dust with jackboots of oppression.

There I feel better. Out of the impeachment closet.

We MUST take back the Congress in November, or this is idle gum-beating. If we do, the subpoenas start flying on January 3, 2007.

9. Very True
He's been a spectacular success to his "base". What befuddles me is how many poor, Fox watchers really believe he has their best interests in mind. It's so crystal clear to me where his loyalties lie.

10. Making government fail is their middle name. Whole drug plan
Edited on Sun Jan-22-06 04:44 AM by applegrove
fiasco is like Katrina, Iraq, etc . Creative destruction. Fun, fun, fun!!! Only part that isn't working out well for them is the part where the hastilily created corporation that gets the no-bid contract... cannot make even a gutted governance (with no power to make decisions curtesy interference from Rummy or Cheney) look bad.

11. Exactly why the Corporate Media loves him so much.........
Edited on Sun Jan-22-06 05:35 AM by ClintonTyree
he's their golden goose. That and the fact that the NSA, CIA and FBI have dug up all kinds of dirt on them as well and are blackmailing them with it.
But other than that, he's been the champion of the working class. Remember that $300 tax rebate check many people got in 2001? That was just the start of the "bush economic miracle", and the economy has just ROCKETED since then! :rofl:

13. I guess calling him a failure would imply that he tried to succeed at
something other than raising the wealthy at the expense of honest hard working Americans.

He never even tried, indeed he has become more blatent in this second term to expand the gap between the haves and have nots.

I just can't understand why 35% seem to ignore this and choose to worship at his feet as they cheer him on.

14. George Bush works for US cartel against US interests
This is the most on-the-nail post I've ever seen.
It could well be that King George II works for another cartel as well, but the cartel which I know he is on record opposing BOTH the Senate & Congress to support is the US Indonesia Society cartel.

Even before 9/11 George was pushing to resume his father's & previous US funding of this foreign colonial military; to quote the World Policy Institute -
"Because Washington likes the pro-investment bent of the cabinet, it seems willing to overlook Megawati's close ties to the military.
This is not new. The United States has a long history of supporting the Indonesian military and turning a blind eye to rampant abuse of human rights and civil liberties. Since Indonesia's invasion of East Timor in 1975, in which 200,000 were killed, the United States has transferred over a billion dollars in weaponry to the Jakarta regime."

In a comic display violating US laws, FBI agents flew to West Papua and accepted a self confessed suspect under two US murder indictments into their custody before sending him and 11 other witnesses to a foreign government to keep the cartel's colonial criminal activities out of the US courts. With a friend like George Bush as your President, what more does the US Indonesia Society need to defeat the US Senate & Congress attempts to stop the colonial genocide & other human rights abuses in West Papua ? ?
