Just Observing

Now here is an absolute crock of shit BushCo is forcing down throats. The Soc. Sec. agency is being ordered to use Soc. Sec. funds to scam the public by pushing Bush's agenda to privatize SS against the wishes of a good many SS people who don't believe in same and say Bush's Fear! Fear! Crisis! Crisis! is flat out based on untruths.

No question BushCo is paying rightwing bloggers, pundits, and who knows who all else to do the same, just as they have been from 2000 on. To say nothing of messing with elections and voting machines.

That rotten outfit, if not stamping Top Secret to hide things that ought to be public, is heavy into every kind of mis-information, flat out lying, disinformation, cover-ups and scamming that it's possible for a so-called administration to be in. Their obvious intent is for the duties of government to shrink into just one thing: defense...the military-industrial machine. And they're about as lousy in all forms of defense as ever the worst set of clowns could possibly be.

So Bush, not too long after Yale, has to CYA in advance cause there are big plans for him. This means his daddy's friends pull strings to get him into the Air Force reserves...or was it Nat'l Guard....No matter, in he goes to learn to fly jets. About the time he does, he disappears for a year after getting time to campaign for another of Poppy Bush's friends but never shows at the base he's assigned to be at. Not one person...NOT ONE...of the men in that unit has ever met or seen him. In point of fact, he's a deserter in a time of war...and Vietnam definitely qualifies as a full out war. You tell me how he "earned" an honorable discharge. You tell me why his Air Force records are not available/can't be located.

Now here's Bush, the pres with the Masters In Business Admin, who has blantantly failed in every business he's tried to run, but at the same time as made money in every one of them, thanks to his father's friends bailing his sorry ass out. Well, since he can't run a business, let's let him run for Congress. He lost. Okay, how about Governor of Texas...but with Karl Rove doing his dirty thing in the background? So they trash Gov Ann Richards every way in hell and she loses.

Now Bush is Gov of Texas and needs a legal counsel. Fine. Get the guy with no conscience to give Bush advice...Alberto Gonzales, who figures that every single person sentenced to death in Texas needs to be executed. Doesn't matter if they have mental illnesses up the kazoo. Kill 'em off. We're tough. So they set a record for killin' 'em off that they're most proud of.

Next thing Gov isn't big enough. Poppy Bush, whom I once respected, former head of CIA, former Prez, decides little Georgy will carry on and become Pres of the US. What's the State that will make the difference? Florida! Where little brother Jeb is Governor. Rove rolls on, trashing VP Al Gore for all he's worth.Theresa LaPore comes up with the butterfly ballot, designed to deceive, and every other kind of illegal bullshit goes on to keep people from voting. Katherine Harris does a fine job on Bush's behalf and ends up voted into Congress. After an immense amount of illegal crap, the Supreme Court stops the recount and annoints Bush prez. Al Gore, officer and gentleman, concedes graciously.

In the background, PNAC's neo-cons are going full speed ahead. Cheney has declared himself VP and a bunch of Poppy's men are put back in power, starting with Rumsfeld and his evil crew. Condi Rice who has been with Bush since he was Gov of Texas is now moving to DC with him, as does Rove, Karen Hughes, Gonzales et al. And they want to take out Saddam for trying to assassinate Poppy Bush. Who, with Repubs in control of both houses of Congress, the Supreme Court, and the administration, can stop them? They have the power and they sure as hell have the money and the communications system under their control.

Then 9/11 hits, and BushCo learns fast that the best way, again, to get what they want is to shriek Fear! Fear! Crisis! Crisis! and lie from dawn right through dark and it's worked for years now. Even won him a 2nd term...once they've totally trashed Kerry. Rove's machine is extraordinarily good at trashing. And between Ashcroft and Gonzales, torture, among other things, becomes a fine and dandy thing. Hell, Bush speaks to God, God wanted him to be prez. What else matters? More, whenever anything at all goes wrong, it's Bill Clinton's fault. Right?

All of which now leaves the United States, under BushCo, in a state of disgrace with the entire world, and at least half of its citizens humiliated.

Bottom line: BushCo is a danger to the nation and the world. The only way to stop them from destruction of everything the United States once stood for is to begin by taking back the Congress in 2006, so we'd best get our asses in gear. Now.
That's a wrap.
