Barbra's Meltdown
www.barbrastreisand.com ^

Posted on 09/08/2004 6:40:17 AM PDT by YourAdHere

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!

If I may pat myself on the back (self-satisfied smirk), I predicted the libs would make Pantload Berger into a "Victim."

I predicted August 5, the libs would do a Resurrection Case on Berger, fellating ol' Sandy, extolling him as an innocent "victim of the VRWC."

Presto change-o. Before you can say September 11, 2001, Berger is miraculously transformed into Secy of State material.

Thanks Babs for making my prediction come true (/sarc) ..........and I'm sure Sandy will properly thank you later for the BJ.

I think that she knows but she probably needs for Kerry to have been in the army in order to properly explain how this same army captured the president if Iran.

"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..."

Sorry, Baboo ---

I think you have it wrong.

The way I heard the story was that Sandy pulled some documents out of his pants (his favorite place for stroing important documents), told Condolezza Rice that there was some important information on them.....

But the only thing Dr. Rice was able to see was yellow-streaks washing away what looked to be important information.

And I am deliriously happy that you are so flabbergasted, dear!

I think we have a contender to William Faulkner for the world's most rambling run-on sentences.

Uhhh...sorry Babs. That would be the MSM that is feeding twits like you the half truths and lies of omission. It is all they believe your feeble mind can absorb.
