BUSH BLUNDERS ARE HARD TO KEEP UP WITH

BUSH BLUNDERS ARE HARD TO KEEP UP WITH

 

 

By Pastor Chuck Baldwin

May 12, 2003

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.

Bush has already made it clear he is going to continue the ban on "assault weapons"

That statement in and of itself, speaks ill of your ability to grasp Strategy, Strategist.

Common sense, tells anyone that is paying attention, that he knows that DeLay, will not let the Ban get out of the house, So the Right is protected, while he dances to the middle. And that Leaves whoever runs against him in 04, without one of the Rats signature issues.

"Bush keeping his word to uphold Clinton's ban along with other unconstitutional bars on our second amendment rights is enough to vote for someone else."

First of all, it may be a bad law but that doesn't make it unConstitutional.

Second, we don't want your vote. You fringe party types are the worst possible advertisement for Conservatives. We certainly don't want the liberal Left holding you people up as shining examples of Conservatives the next time you or your buddies shoot up some school in your zest to demonstrate how bad are the so-called "gun free zones" in this country.

Nothing can do Republicans more damage than for us to be associated with people like you.

We don't want you. We aren't going to try to please you. We don't want to be associated with you.

You and your ilk are political freaks, loners, and kooks of the worst order. You aren't wanted, and we certainly don't want you telling random strangers that you would *EVER* vote for one of our candidates.

You are basically no different than the PC crowd that Tammy Bruce rights about in the death of right and wrong.

And you are no better than the bitch and whine liberals and lunatic fringe anarchists that bring no solutions to the table. This crap is written by the same guy that recently compared the President to the Anti-Christ on the logic that he was loved by many. Truly sick and twisted.

We're supposed to think he is stupid as it makes his disruption on this forum seem less onerous.

It is a game. Or else he is a total stooge for the evil-doers.

"*NAFTA and GATT came into existence early in the Clinton administration"

But it was a "lame duck" repubilcrat controlled senate which allowed only four hours of debate and voted for both treaties along with their dem cohorts.

Imagine, four hours to debate a Treaty which will affect Americans for years to come. Watch and see if the WTO rules against America and force us to accept kyoto.

My friend, I've already woken up. The question is one of alternative. So far there is none.

My friend, do you think it's a mistake, that the only choice we have in life is between the two party cartel in DC?

I've got to run, so I can't stick around. But please see my post 219 for a little more clarification of where I'm coming from.

As to the rest, I will graciously defer to Southack - he has about 2 dozen posts here that refute your original post.

Perspective, people!

Don't confuse the malcontents with common sense... for that they don't understand, imo.

Note: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/911085/posts? Washington Post article...
The Republican-controlled House will not renew the federal ban on Uzis and other semiautomatic weapons, a key leader said yesterday, dealing a significant blow to the campaign to clamp down on gun sales nationwide.

House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Tex.) said most House members are willing to let the ban expire next year. "The votes in the House are not there" to continue the ban, he told reporters.

His spokesman, Stuart Roy, said, "We have no intention of bringing it up" for a vote.

I don't get it! If all the President knew was there was going to be an attack, why would I want to know about it???????? If I did not know the day, the time, and the place, knowing there was going to be an attack, would have me freaking out as it would have all Americans!!!!!!

I would have been outraged if the President had made such an announcement! What if he had made it, and then the terrorists did not attack, which would really have worked better for them!!!!!! People would not have went to work, would have kept their children at home and so on, the economy would really have taken a much greater hit, we would still be hiding!

I know many very liberal people who supported the war and our President, just because he is the president. As events unfolded, however, they recognized Bush's brilliance, and and they grew to respect him immensely. In fact, many will vote for him next election--at least they have said so. To me this reflects Bush's success.

Bush's brilliance????

LOL! This is funnier than a room full of rocking chairs and long tailed cats.

After watching the event unfold in Iraq, do you really think that ass backwards country had any chance in hell? Hahahaha.... Looking back, as far as wars go, this was a freaking cake walk. They didn't have chance one.

It was like watching Tyson fight Tony Snow.......
