Who's Counting Bush's Mistakes?
Emergency Management: They completely failed to manage the first large-scale emergency since 9/11. Despite all their big talk and hundreds of billions of dollars spent on homeland security over the past four years, this administration proved itself stunningly incompetent when faced with an actual emergency. (Katrina Relief Funds Squandered)


Fiscal Management: America is broke. No wait, we're worse than broke. In less than five years these borrow and spend-thrifts have nearly doubled our national debt, to a stunning $8.2 trillion. These are not your father's Republicans who treated public dollars as though they were an endangered species. These Republicans waste money in ways and in quantities that make those old tax and spend liberals of yore look like tight-fisted Scots.

This administration is so incompetent that you can just throw a dart at the front page of your morning paper and whatever story of importance it hits will prove my point.

1. The Daily Show had a running list the other night but ran out of
numbers. They had to go to Greek numbers.

4. We talk about this like it is
philosophical. This horror has consequences to billions of people. When is our leadership going to stop this madness?

10. they're not "mistakes" . . . they're deliberate actions that . . .
violate U.S. and international law, the Constitution, the Geneva Conventions, human rights, civil liberties, and common human decency . . .

they're not mistakes . . . they're crimes . . .
