BUSH BLUNDERS ARE HARD TO KEEP UP WITH

The foibles and follies of this administration are too numerous to count. With the exception of Monica Lewinsky, they rival anything in the previous administration. Of course, most neocons refuse to notice. Therefore, this column will also be ignored.

However, for those who are interested in the truth, here are some of the latest examples of Bush's blunders:

*Bush threw his support behind a liberal Republican who supports increased taxes, abortion and additional gun control to be a Republican nominee for the U.S. Senate. That man is Illinois Governor Jim Edgar. Thankfully, Edgar decided to not seek the nomination, but that didn't stop Bush from doing his best to send another liberal to Washington, D.C. Next, watch for Bush to do the same thing in California.

*Bush continues his support for the Clinton-Gore gun ban enacted back in 1994. Despite objections from gun groups, including the National Rifle Association, the President is determined to re-institute the so-called "assault weapons" ban that is scheduled to sunset next year. So much for Bush being "pro-gun."

*As Commander-In-Chief, President Bush has the authority to establish guidelines and policies for our nation's military. When Bill Clinton became President, he implemented the infamous "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy allowing homosexuals to serve in the U.S. armed forces. Bush has continued that policy. Clinton also introduced women to front-line combat roles. And true to form, Bush continues this reprehensible Clinton policy. In fact, one would be extremely hard-pressed to find any Clinton policy that Bush has reversed! I can't think of a single one.

*NAFTA and GATT came into existence early in the Clinton administration. Bush continues those polices and even wants to expand them. He has proposed expanding this agreement throughout the Americas and is now calling for a Mideast Free Trade agreement. Say good-bye to more American jobs; say hello to more foreign goods and to more foreign workers.

*Bush is determined to oversee the creation of a Palestinian state. After sending American soldiers to fight and die in an undeclared war against Iraq, Bush wants to create another such country by giving the P.L.O. radicals their own nation. Clinton wanted to do the same thing, of course, but was shouted down by conservatives. Today, those same conservatives sit mute and dumb as Bush sets about to finish what Clinton started.

*Speaking of finishing what Clinton started, Bush successfully created the Department of Homeland Security and the totalitarian-laced USA Patriot Act. There is an even more egregious version currently worming its way into law. All this was the brainchild of Bill Clinton, of course. However, he could not accomplish his pernicious plans because conservatives and Republicans would not support them. Now they do.

*Bush is likely to invoke Executive Privilege in order to continue the cover-up about what he and other top government leaders knew prior to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Some thirty days prior to the attacks, Bush reportedly received a CIA Intelligence Report which warned, "The attack will be spectacular and designed to inflict mass casualties against U.S. facilities or interests. Attack preparations have been made. Attack will occur with little or no warning." More details are leaking out almost daily.

A Democratic Presidential contender, Senator Bob Graham of Florida, says Bush knows much more than he is telling and is demanding that the administration come clean about what really took place. Before that happens, however, Bush will claim Executive Privilege and the truth will be covered up once again.

"This article shows he is still allowing Clinton’s policy of admitting faggots into the military. Keeping women in combat. Bush didn’t garner my support either by trumpeting that we dropped more food than bombs in Afghanistan."

Um, you may not have noticed, but WHOMEVER we are putting into combat seems to be working out pretty well for us. Certainly the Iraqis and Afghanis have seemed to have lost their zest for combat against us.

Oh, and since when is it a bad thing to show our overwhleming American compassion by feeding the starving? So we dropped more food than bombs, and that upsets you?!

Sheesh, we clearly dropped *enough* bombs, as the Taliban is no longer in power in Afghanistan, and Hussein's statues have fallen in Baghdad.

Nice to see someone trying to pretend to be a conservative - justifying government taking over private industry. At least it armed pilots to some degree, you say.

[No Dems 2004]

The guy who wrote this article is a moron.

"Bush has done every bit as much to promote the homosexual agenda as Bill Clinton did, maybe more."

Oh really? Ask Timothy Tymkovich and Jay Bybee.

"Overall, the A.I.D.S. epidemic is behaviorally spread. It is mostly spread through promiscuous homosexual sex. Of course, it is also spread through promiscuous heterosexual sex and through germ- infected intravenous drug needles."

What a dope. In Africa, the vast majority of AIDS is spread heterosexually, as many African blacks don't even know what homosexuality is.

"By choosing to fund pro-abortion groups, Bush is breaking his word to pro-lifers and is proving, once again, that he has no real convictions regarding the life issue."

False. Bush could do better at times, but very often he's done pro-life things. His judicial nominees are very conservative, for the most part.

I checked, we can all be Doctors of Divinity just like Chuckie for $2700.

This guy is known by his nickname ... "ugly" ... in the Black Lagoon.

[Southack]

"You can call yourself a conservative? The farm bill's final cost would increase from $171billion to $342 billion."

Yes, I call myelf a Conservative.

Oh no, we've increased federal spending after the 9/11/01 terror attacks! Quick, somebody tell us all that we're doomed to be labeled as liberals by the 1 percenters in our midsts! < /MOCKING >

You're desperate and southack has shown you to be nothing more than a silly, spiteful disruptor. Ta-ta.

[Judith Anne]

All your drek posts have shown you for what you are:

A hater of President Bush.

Many "Doctorates of Divinity" are earned (bought) by inmates, particularly inmates doing time in Federal prisons for income tax evasion and telemarketing (wire fraud).

If you look very close at the certificate, he is actually a "Rearend"

>>wasn't it this President who spent months trying to empower the U.N., <<

Haha. His strategy in courting U.N. approval was brilliant.
He knew well France would never go along. Yet, by playing the game in courting U.N. approval, he was able to show the U.N. for the irrelevant org. that it is, and he was able to show France for the enemy it is, and has been for the past two decades. It was a brilliant maneuver.

>>isn't he offering Russia and France a role in rebuilding Iraq<<

Don't underestimate George Bush--he's a wizard with stratgey and he knows what he is doing. Just wait and see.

Do you really think that he, as the leader of the free world can indiscriminately do whatever you wish? No, He cannot. It takes sophisticated diplomacy to run this country--you should be happy he is doing a good job, instead of worrying about whether he is toeing YOUR line, imo.

Radical right - no, no, no - you are a leftist that mistakenly convinces yourself you are on the right even though you support government taking over the airline security industry. Tell me how prescription drug coverage is conservative. Tell me how you support the Constitution, and how Bush upholds it, while you back the Clinton Era assault ban.

Oh, the tax cut. Uh-huh. You talk about the amount. Not the fact you have small marginal reductions and the fact it plays into the hands of liberals. No real reform was presented - he wouldn’t even shoot for a flat tax. Of course I believe income tax should be abolished.

[Republican_Strategist]

Oh, you think Bush spending money on the military makes him a conservative even though you avoid why I say Bush is not conservative. Hell, by your logic Glore would be conservative seeing how he said he'd spend more than Bush on the military.

[Risa]

>>Ooooo, just look at all the traffic you're getting to your website.....you little marketing genius, you...<<


Haha! I stupidly clicked his link, and my system crashed.

Why don't you get on the "Dungphone" with Chuck and tell him to grow a couple marbles and COME INTO THIS FORUM himself and be answerable to his evolving dementia.

It's a bad trip on a web-site you are republishing here, not some legitimate news source.

If Charlie Baldwin wants to tangle, tell him to come to FR and post this stuff as a vanity commentary and hang around to field our inquiries.

He smells like wet doghair.

[Republican_Strategist]

Bush is no wizard of strategy. Anyone with even half a brain knew France was not going along with it. Remember back in fall of 2002 - Russia was signing a $40 billion dollar economic deal with Saddam. Bush still waited months trying to get the U.N. to go along with it. Just because his long, tiresome plea for the U.N. to give us permission failed - does not mean he is some genius.

[Judith Anne]

Okay, so, in your book, President Bush is WORSE THAN CLINTON?????

See, I knew all your posts were drek.

[Judith Anne]

It was President Bush's "long, tiresome plea" that showed the entire world exactly who the French, Russians, and Germans were---and showed the UN for the irrelevant gang of idiots that it is.

It could not have been done any other way, unless of course, you or Rev. Chuckie have yet another bright idea.

[Diddle E. Squat]

OK Mr. Republican_Stategist, which candidate did you strategize for and what office did he win?

[Southack]

"Radical right - no, no, no - you are a leftist that mistakenly convinces yourself you are on the right even though you support government taking over the airline security industry. Tell me how prescription drug coverage is conservative. Tell me how you support the Constitution, and how Bush upholds it, while you back the Clinton Era assault ban."

I don't support the Assault Weapons Ban, but the place to beat it is in Congress.

But it is not unConstitutional. It is an abomination and a hassle, and it will expire. That Bush would extend it is simply due to his ethical habit of keeping his campaign promises, of which one was to support existing gun laws and to fight all new gun control laws.

Prescription drug coverage can be Constitutional (no one denies that the government has a right to supply our soldiers in the field with battlefied medicine, for instance), and it can also be Conservative (see previous battlefield example). So the devil is in the details.

Nationalizing the entire healthcare industry wouldn't be Conservative, but that's something that a Gore, Kennedy, or a Clinton would do, not a Bush.

With Bush, you'll get a little political jujitsu that will yield reasonable Prescription Drug coverage, denying the "issue" to Democrats, but that won't nationalize our doctors, a deft combination that critics of Bush still can't comprehend.
