The Republican Party and the Bush administration like to keep the public uninformed and in the dark as to what they are doing. This president has had fewer press conferences than any other president in recent history. It is difficult for the country to stay properly informed when we are constantly being fed half truths and lies of omission by the current administration. Every time they send a representative out to speak to the public, he is armed with the same set of message points and catch phrases creating an echo effect. After hearing the same message over and over again, the public begins to believe their words, whether they are true or not. It doesn't help that the media is very slow in following up on the administration's lies before questioning their policies. But no matter how hard the Bush Administration tries to avoid it, the realities about our current economic climate and this war need to be addressed. Bush has created the largest deficit in U.S. history. Most of our debt is owed to foreign countries, such as China and Japan. President Bush is driving the economy into the ground after he inherited a record surplus from the previous administration. We are stuck in a war Bush should never have waged and as a result he has unleashed an explosive powder keg in the Middle East. As a result of our policies, terrorism is spreading, rather than abating after 9/11. Warnings before 9/11 weren't heeded. Airline security wasn't beefed up with the threat of hijackings. The immediate enemy was not Iraq and now we have a terrorist breeding ground on our hands! When Sandy Berger, of the Clinton Administration, told Condoleezza Rice that the biggest threat to America was al Qaeda, the Bush Administration did not heed this warning until after 9/11 and it has taken 3 years to do something about it-our country is still so vulnerable. I am completely flabbergasted and bewildered that when the public is polled regarding which candidate they trust to deal with terrorism, they choose George W. Bush. Those of us who feel that we are not safer with George Bush in the White House, and feel we will be more secure in the fight on terrorism with John Kerry, an experienced soldier and Senator, as President, need to create our own message megaphone to reach the American people, before it's too late!
Does she know he was in the Navy?
someone up her prescription, she is in a bad way....
How did she type that ridiculous message through her straitjacket? More Xanax to padded cell number 3, please.
Not to mention, clueless!
No doubt. When is she not bewildered?
If Babs had rhinoplasty it'd be considered a hysterectomy.
Glad to be reminded who that the little thief worked(works) for.
Duh.................. Babs' fact checker went on the fritz.
It tells you something that Kerry's followers are so stupid. Sadly, their vote counts the same as mine.

She's obviously talking about Kerry here.
anyone have plans for a message megaphone handy?
(You know....the ones calling Bush with his Yale and Harvard degrees, a moron??)
Define "irony."
I believe you, Babs.
Put some ice on it, Barbie.
I watched "What's Up, Doc?" the other day, and it's a great movie. It's sad to see how a fun young Striesand turned into a ranting, self-centered, narcissistic crone. Oh, and when does Babs subject herself to questioning on her loopy assertions? If she puts it out there, shouldn't she be willing to defend her position in a skeptical forum?
That's cause Babs went to Dr 90210. LOL.
Must be some good drugs she's doing. She sounds like a goober.
Shut up and just sing Bawbaw.
