BUSH BLUNDERS ARE HARD TO KEEP UP WITH
By Pastor Chuck Baldwin May 12, 2003 NewsWithViews.com 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. |
3am is pretty late in North Carolina. I take it you are an unemployed Republican_Strategist? Betting it all on the Bauer campaign didn't pay off, eh?
Judith, I hate to break this to you...but...there are not buckets large enough to hold the amount of spew that Republican_Strategist's statement produces. And these low flush toilets cannot take it either.
Bush killed the Kyoto Global Warming Treaty. That's hardly a liberal position to take.
Bush killed U.S. involvement in the International Criminal Court. Gee, it's only that *every* liberal on this planet supports that court.
Bush killed the U.S. - CCCP ABM Treaty that was preventing the U.S. from deploying our ABM defenses, an act of courage that was opposed by every Leftist with a microphone.
Bush reversed Clinton's move to strike Reagan's anti-abortion Mexico Policy.
Bush killed Clinton's CO2 rules that were choking off all of the electricity surplus to California.
Bush killed Clinton's "ergonomic" rules that OSHA was about to impliment; rules that would have shut down every home business in America.
Bush passed the largest tax-Dollar value tax cut in the history of the world, hardly an anti-Conservative move.
Bush has pushed through TWO raises for our military.
Bush has signed TWO bills into law that arm our pilots with handguns in the cockpit, hardly an anti-gun position.
Bush is currently pushing for full immunity from lawsuits for our national gun manufacturers, something that the Democrats, including your beloved Gram, have vowed to filibuster and oppose at every step.
Bush ordered Attorney-General Ashcroft to formally notify the Supreme Court that the OFFICIAL U.S. government position on the 2nd Amendment is that it supports INDIVIDUAL rights to own firearms, NOT a leftist-imagined "collective" right.
"Ye shall know them by their enemies". Go to the NY Times website. Everyday they publish an anti-Bush hit piece. If its bad and it happens in the NY Times' world, then it's Bush's fault.
My mind did conjure up the image of the bald-headed doomsday cult in one of those Planet of the Apes movies, ya know, the underground group that held a nuke and ended up destroying the world.
Yes, only the Pharasees are good conservatives...
