Why I Hate Bush, Neocons and Democrat Enablers (pt 2)
I am not clinically qualified to diagnose our current President as a certified Moron. However, if he walks like a moron, talks like a moron, and looks like he was separated at birth from Alfred E. Newman, I will assume he is a moron. For further analysis of the man’s personal problems I urge you to read Bush On the Couch – Inside the Mind of the President by Justin A. Frank, M.D., ( http://www.powells.com/biblio/7-0060736712-1 ) you will be asking yourself how this country "chose a “leader” so poorly equipped for the role of leader of our country and the free world".

It is obvious that the man’s policies are moronic. He has bankrupted our nation both economically and morally. Our infrastructure was crumbling when he took over and his tax policies are making it impossible for our cities to rebuild. He lied us into a war to prove his penis is bigger than his fathers and now the moron has no idea how to get us out.

It is a reasonable question to ask why I detest this man so much, so I will answer it now before I proceed. This buffoon is the progeny of one of the country’s ruling class families dating back to the early 1900’s. It is not his family’s position that pisses me off, that is just the chance meeting of lucky sperm and ovum. My reasons for detesting little Georgie and his whole family are because of what they have done with their money and position. Have these members of the noblesse “non” oblige done anything with their money and position to help their country or its people? No. They have spent their lives and careers sucking up money like vacuum cleaners lining their own pockets and those of their closest compadres with as much money as they can carry. They have used their position and connections in and out of government to wheel and deal and grab as much cash as they can wherever they can. Volumes have been written on the history of the Bush clan’s dealings with Nazi Germany and other choice cultures. The reader can do his own Google or Yahoo search to find more reading material there. Georgie’s brother Neal was involved with the looting of the Silverado Savings and Loan back in the glorious days of the Savings and Loan debacle of the 1980’s. Lots of good reading there. Just recently with the Katrina disaster, stories are swirling around brother Jeb’s lobbying for Carnival Cruise Lines big contracts to put cruise ships under fat overpaid FEMA contracts for temporary housing for emergency workers.

Look at Shrub’s history himself, the boy was given the chance at a great education. What did he do? Pissed it off. Went to the best schools in the country and partied. After his school days every time he tried a business deal it fell through and his daddy’s buddies had to bail him out. Yet, he really thinks he got to where he is because of his own hard work. What a putz.

I, like millions of other people in this country do not have “daddy’s buddies” to bail us out on a daily basis. We have to work long hours on a daily basis to make our businesses succeed and to make our payrolls. We have employees who depend on us to make proper decisions. If we make the wrong decisions not only do we suffer, but others who depend on us suffer. Daily I get up, shower, go to breakfast, and go to work realizing that everything I do makes the difference not only in my life but in the lives of 18 other people. Those people being my employees and their families. I work hard to pay my employees well over minimum wage. They are worth it. Without them my business would not succeed. We are a team. If I screw up and make the wrong decisions I cannot stand up in front of a press conference, giggle and pretend that what I did never happened. I have to face my employees. This fucking moron has had to face no one for his blundering idiocy that has cost the lives of over 2500 young men and women and is bankrupting the country. That is why I hate the man, his compadres, and his neocon policies.

What has our media been doing while all of this has been going on? Playing tiddly winks and “finding the missing white woman”. No, Cute Katie, your finest bit of journalism was not the expose on the runaway bride. Who gives a rat’s ass about some spoiled broad who got cold feet?

JEEZ! America! Get real people! Get a clue. Yes, I am sorry that your beautiful 18 year old daughter is missing and probably dead. It is tragic and I feel your loss, but goddamnit don’t let her go to a foreign country on a school outing, and if she does, teach her to have enough common sense not to get in a car with people she doesn’t even know. Holy shit, have we as Americans lost all of our brain power?

By the way, all you women who are living with abusive men, when he hits you the first time, call the police. Do not wait. If he is cheating on you, move out. Don’t wait because if he is violent, he probably will kill you and you won’t be able to see yourself on television. Oh, and sorry, because the networks are ratings driven, if you aren’t white and beautiful you won’t make the news anyway, so take your kids if you have any, and get out while you can. You do not have to have a man to survive.

Face it, the main stream media sucks. If there ever was a reason to bring back the Fairness Doctrine, Fox News is it. Growing up, my parents taught me that if I told a lie I would get my butt beat. Obviously Roger Ailes searched the country and found the people whose parents did not believe in corporal punishment… either that or they flat out rewarded their punk children for lying. That probably is it. They more than likely helped their rich old man cover up all the illicit affairs he was having. Fits in with their pattern of lies today.

We do not need to fear Avian Flu nearly as much as we need to fear Faux Flu; and I am afraid the pandemic has spread quickly through CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, and I am afraid the symptoms have been seen at CBS. We must find an effective vaccine. The anti-virus called “internet blogging” has shown much promise and probably will prove to be a major factor in the defeat of the illness.

But I digress…
I must get back to our Moron-in-Chief. If any one is interested in how truly conflicted the guy is read Maureen Dowd’s Bushworld. ( http://www.powells.com/biblio/17-0425202763-0 ) She has gone to great lengths (excuse the pun) to show how Bush the lesser has always attempted to measure his manhood against that of his father.

I was truly shocked when this packaged nincompoop ran against and beat Ann Richards, one of the best governors Texas ever had. When that happened I knew that the propaganda machine was running full blast and was afraid of what was next. When the Republicans packaged this fool as a “Compassionate Conservative” I figured we were all in trouble because he was neither. (Hey fool, just how macho did you feel when you signed all those death warrants in Texas? Didn’t you have a great time making fun of that woman you had executed? Did it feel as good as when you blew up those frogs with fire crackers when you were a kid?)

I never could figure out why they picked this dimwit instead of his brother Jeb, who at least can speak a complete sentence. (Oh, maybe I just did figure it out. Jeb was smart enough to tell that the lies they were feeding him would not work as policy.)

This guy grew up in a bubble. He never questioned anything. He never traveled anywhere. He never wanted to know anything. How on earth did this guy fool voters into believing he could be Presidential material? For over two hundred years we have elected men that at least have led men on the field of battle, have been intellectual leaders, or at least have held elected political office long enough to know how government works. This guy cannot even open a door without his nanny. He has surrounded himself with caretaker women because his mother didn’t even like him. He has admitted to being a drunk. He was a failure in every business enterprise he tried. How did he fool the voters? Are the American voters that suckered by advertising?

So, anyway, there we were in 2000 having an election with Bubble Boy Bush running for President and Vice President Gore running away from Bill Clinton. Lo and behold the American voters didn’t know what they wanted and were split down the middle. It came down to a confused ballot in Florida and the Republicans sent in a bunch of people yelling stop the counting! (Funny how they didn’t want the votes counted in Florida in 2000 but it is real important to them to count the votes in Iraq now.) So they pushed the issue to the Supreme Court and Bubble Boy’s daddy’s judge’s appointed him president. It seems like that would have gotten him over being pissed at daddy, but probably just made him madder because he could not do it on his own.

Of course, the boy never could do anything on his own. Just look at the oil company failures, the baseball deal and everything else he has failed at. You know the kid has to see “LOSER” on his forehead every time he looks in the mirror to shave.

Ok, so Bubble Boy is sworn in and it looks like the Republic might survive another big mistake. The one day the moron goes down to Florida for some photo ops and to read a book about a pet goat… the rest, as they say, is history.

No, I do not believe the conspiracy theory that Bubble Boy knew that the Saudis were going to attack us, but I do believe that he and his neocon buddies used the attack as an excuse to implement some of the most idiotic pieces ever imposed on the citizens of our country that would not have been passed in other times. His war on terror has been nothing but a war of propaganda on the citizens of this country. He and the neocons went into office looking for any excuse to attack Iraq. The 9-11 attacks were their excuse.
(Again I urge you to do some investigating for yourself. Check out http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2023320890224991194&q=loose+change+v... and http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8260059923762628848&q=loose+change+v... )

For some reason the neocons think that our democracy can be exported and implemented from above. What a bunch of idiots. John Adams said that our country can be an example for others to follow but we cannot attempt to force others to follow our example. Perhaps if Bubble Boy had paid attention in those expensive schools that his parents spent all that money on, he would have realized that our democracy is rooted in the Magna Carta dating back to 1519. (No Frat Boy, that has nothing to do with Carta Blanca).

For those idiots to lie us into a war to topple Saddam Hussein to install “democracy” in a society that has absolutely to tradition of self rule is fantasy.

This is another example of American soldiers dying to clean up another of our foreign policy screw-ups. Saddam was our tyrant for two decades. We armed him, we supplied him with everything he needed to fight the Iranians to keep his war going for 20 years, Donald Rumsfield even flew to Baghdad to pat him on the head and tell him what a good boy he was. Why do we allow our so-called “elected” leaders to go crap on all these sidewalks of the world then send our 19 year olds to die when we have to clean up their messes?

Since our Moron-in-Chief didn’t pay any more attention in American History than he did in World History, I am sure he would not remember that the British didn’t just decide one day to give us our independence. We had what Bubble Boy would call a “rev-oh-looshn”. That means we had to want our democracy enough that we had to fight the army that was “occupying” our country. Hey boy! Is that starting to ring a bell?

You see part of this mess we are cleaning up dates back to 1953 when Iran actually had a democratically elected government. Now, I’ll bet Bubble Boy never knew that and I’ll bet even more that the neocons never told him because even a moron might ask what happened. What did happen, you might ask? Well, seems that the DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED PRIME MINISTER named Mohammed Mossadeq decided that the oil companies that were sucking the oil out of Iran needed to pay Iran a fair price for the oil they were getting instead of the pittance that they had been paying. Ha! He actually thought that because he was the DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED head of state of a sovereign nation that he could do that. What a joke. The CIA decided that it would be better to have one of those buy-me-off kinds of governments instead of a democratically elected government. So, sure enough, Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi suddenly was installed on the throne of Iran. Yeah, Shah of Iran sure had a much nicer ring to it than democratically elected Prime Minister of Iran. Fits the area better. At least the oil companies thought so. The people of Iran sure did not think so. They got all pissed off and started organizing. So of course the Shah and his CIA handlers claimed that everyone that opposed him were Communists! Oh heavens to Betsy. Of course the red blooded American Congress could not have Communists bothering our handpicked dictator, so we armed the Shah and told him to start kicking some Communist ass. The CIA and American forces trained the Shah’s secret police, the SAVAK, to spy on and torture the Iranian people which of course made the Shah even more popular with the Iranians. This went on for several years with no one except the religious leaders standing up to the Shah, which brings our old friend Ayatollah Khomeini into the picture; which really got everybody stirred up. So you see how we crapped on the Iranians sidewalk too. If we had just left their damn DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED GOVERNMENT ALONE we would have paid a little more for gasoline, oil company shareholders would have had fewer dividends but we would have had a damn peaceful middle east.

Hey Bubble Boy did they tell you those plans they showed you were NEW? Sound familiar now? Think it sounds like Déjà vu? Not as easy this time was it? I hope you are not getting bananas and nukes confused next.

The CIA was pretty proud of itself with its first successful overthrow of a foreign government and was obviously itching to do it again. In 1954 the DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED PRESIDENT OF GUATAMALA Jacobo Arbenz created an agrarian reform program in which unworked land would be expropriated at the VALUE ON THE GOVERNMENT TAX ROLLS and given to landless peasants. It seems that for years the United Fruit Company had rendered the value of their land in Guatemala at only $2.99 per acre, which is what the Guatemalan government offered them. (Seems like a fair offer to me since they had been screwing the government out of taxes for like 80 years or so.) However the United Fruit Company got all pissed off, went crying to John Foster Dulles, the US Secretary of State (whose brother Allen was the Director of the CIA) whining about how they were having their land stolen, and it gave the CIA another chance. Of course, the U. S. government claims that all the trouble is caused by Communists! The CIA sets about setting up another covert army killing hundreds of civilians and overthrowing another DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED GOVERNMENT under the guise of saving the people from themselves. (Isn’t it getting a little confusing by now that whenever the workers and poor people are about to get helped that the U.S. government starts screaming about Communists?)

When Jacobo Arbenz resigned and was forced to leave the country we established one of the most ruthless dictatorships in Central America. The U.S. has kept it armed for decades and has said nothing throughout its continuing efforts to eradicate the indigenous peoples of Guatemala, especially since it was under the guise of fighting communism.

Leave it to the CIA to cover their tracks while they are doing their deeds though. Everybody knows they are doing it but truth takes a while to come out. They can usually pay some whores to help cover up what they are doing. One of their biggest whores was the dictator of Nicaragua, Anastasio Somoza, which the U. S. had been propping up since setting him up in 1936. Somoza conveniently sent in some troops to help overthrow the “socialist” Arbenz as a thank you to his CIA puppet masters.

Just how many times have we armed the rich families in Central America against the poor? Let’s see. Remember when Reagan and his henchmen traded drugs for arms and the CIA created the Contras to kill teachers and farmers in Nicaragua? Never did the Contra “army” attack the Sandinista army. They attacked farming cooperatives, health care clinics, schools, and power supplies. They were “terrorists” that we funded in an effort to destabilize a government that we did not like because they were helping the poor people of Nicaragua. What did the Sandinistas do? They overthrew a bloodthirsty dictatorship that had enslaved the peasants and refused to liberalize the agrarian laws of Nicaragua. They nationalized unused land and gave it to peasants. They instituted literacy programs and healthcare programs nationwide. These are the targets that the brave Contras attacked. The Contras were so ineffective the CIA had to use their own pilots to bomb and mine the Nicaraguan harbors. What chutzpah we have. We do this to a country that we have not even declared war against. We should be very proud of our support of these “terrists”, oh, excuse me freedom fighters against Communists.

Let us not forget the wonderful government in El Salvador that we supported not only with arms, but with forged CIA documents in an effort to link the FMLN (the Salvadoran Rebels) with the evil Sandinistas that were planted in Salvadoran newspapers. By this time we were experts in funding propaganda in local newspapers. Unfortunately it keeps getting picked up and printed in U.S. newspapers because U.S. reporters are too lazy to do their own reporting. Seems that the death squads that the CIA funded got a little carried away and raped and killed some American nuns. (Kind of makes me think back to when I was working on that boat when I thought it was the Communists that did that sort of thing.) That got to be a little much even for the U.S Congress to stomach so we had to back off their funding for awhile. At least until the media forgot about it and the gory pictures of the nuns bodies disappeared from our collective memory. I guess that took about two weeks. We did not even care about the rotting bodies of the hundreds of Salvadorans that the death squads dumped on the garbage heaps daily in an effort to quell the rebellion. We even ignored it when Archbishop Oscar Romero was gunned down while giving a mass in which he called for the oligarchy of El Salvador to stop killing its own people.

Guess who the U.S. Ambassador to Honduras was when this was going on. John Negroponte! His job was to co-ordinate all the funding and supplies for the contras. Journalists at the time found that he also was involved with supplying the DEATH SQUADS. Yes, the same guy that has shown up being appointed to all those great jobs in Iraq, and is now in charge of intelligence for Homeland Security. Isn’t it great how these guys keep popping up like bad nickels? Is it just coincidence that suddenly there are death squads in Iraq with bodies showing up on garbage dumps? Isn’t it strange that just recently Iraqi officials discovered that death squads have been operating out of the Interior and Justice Ministries? Wonder how that happened?

Yep, we should be real proud of our history of supporting democracy.

We are in all this mess because we put the welfare of the multinational corporations before the welfare of the people. That is because the bastards own our government. Look at this shit with Cheney and Halliburton. No bid contracts on everything and when whistleblowers start hollering they get fired. That is bullshit. If my little company wants a job with the government I have to bid on any five dollar pissant spec they have. Who blew Cheney to get that deal?

The only problem with our government is the people in charge of our government. Some of my best friends are Republicans but I would not want my sister to marry one, and I sure do not want them in charge of government. You see, they think that government cannot work, so the first thing they do is hire more people that think like them, who hire more people that think like them, and so on, then everyone is pulling down fat salaries for doing nothing and, voila, government does not work. For example, the major fuck-up that was Katrina. You know, “you’re do’in a heckuva job, Brownie!”

Now, if you remember, Bubble Boy was going to bring, hold on, I am about to choke on laughter here, COMPETENCE, RESPONSIBILITY, and MORALITY back to the White House after the “immoral irresponsible” prosperity ridden eight years of the Clinton White House. Funny how I don’t remember bodies floating in any American cities during Clinton’s tenure. I also don’t remember efforts being organized in the Vice Presidents office to betray covert agents’ identities. Funny how cabinet members from Bubble Boy’s own first term are blowing the whistle on his idiocy and members of his father’s administration are trying to stop the idiocy of the neocons running the show in this Moronic Administration.

No one has had to take any responsibility for any of the disasters that have taken place under this man’s watch – no one! Nada. Zilch. Zero. No one has walked the plank. No one has had stripes ripped off his uniform. We have had several jackasses get the Medal of “Me-no-tell-u-no-tell”.

At least there is one Republican with honor left in this country, Patrick Fitzgerald. He has honored the country by running his office of special council properly. He has told his staff and grand jurors that if they leak information they will be prosecuted like those they are investigating. This man is a patriot. Perhaps he will get to the truth at the bottom of the bubble.

Where are all the Democrats during all of this? Other than the old bear Teddy Kennedy, John Murtha and Russ Feingold I have no idea. All I see is fund raising appeals.

Who is Harry Reid and why is he bothering me for money? He sure as hell has not stood up for any of my values. Where was he when this son of a bitch sent these kids to war? Where was Harry Reid when the Republicans gutted the attempt to raise the minimum wage? Teddy was there raising hell, was Harry? Where the hell was Hillary during all of this? I sure as hell hope she doesn’t plan to run for President in 2008. If she hasn’t stood up for us during all this crap she sure as hell won’t be worth a damn then. I am sure disappointed in that woman. She is the one person with the national recognition that could have put the brakes on this crap and she did not do it. She wasn’t even visible. She sure has not shown the courage of Cindy Sheehan. Now that is one woman with more cojones than most men. We need that little lady to run for public office. We had Paul Hacket running for Senate in Ohio until some Democratic Party hacks stabbed him in the back. That young man stepped off the plane fresh from Iraq and ran a race against a Republican hack in an area of Ohio that has never gone Democratic and came within 1.5% of winning. How did he do it? He stood up to the idiocy of the Bubble Boy and called Bush a stupid son-of-a-bitch and the people responded. The working people of this country know he is a stupid son-of-a-bitch and they will get behind anyone who is brave enough to stand up and speak out. It is time to stop being a bunch of lily livered wussy whipped pc media whores and speak the truth to the American people. WE need political leaders who know what is going on and can lead. We don’t need stupid pretty boys that are run by staff. We need people that can think on their feet like Wes Clark, who have been in leadership positions and have faced fire and can take fire and give it back. We need new people, not the same old song and dances that we are tired of.

The Democratic Party must rebuild itself to again represent the working people and small business of this country. We must have a plan to create jobs for everyone in this country that wants a job.

If it takes another Works Progress Administration, so be it. It worked once, why can it not work again? We have too many people on welfare with no hope. Give people hope. No more no bid contracts for Halliburton. Give the no bid contracts to government agencies to hire people so that the money goes to the people. The people buy food, clothes, cars, consumer goods. Screw Halliburton, they can find their own work. No more contracts to corporations who hide their offices offshore and pay no taxes on income. There are too many law abiding companies in this country who do pay taxes here that can do the same work as these scofflaws. Give the work to small business that will treat their employees fairly.

Rebuild the infrastructure of our country, rebuild our cities. Put money into circulation in our cities and small businesses. The multinationals will take care of themselves. With our cities rebuilding the tax bases will come alive again. Schools can reopen and we can educate our children again.

Roll back the Bush tax cuts. Pay down the massive debts his idiocy has built up; make our country a place where people are no longer afraid to invest. Republicans are supposed to be such great business people. None of them run their businesses the way they have screwed up our country. If they did they would be fired or would go bankrupt. They just would not have the taxpayers to bail them out. Put the inheritance tax back in place. That is the one thing that kept our country from being another oligarchy like Mexico or some other Central American Country. We do not need all the money in this country ending up in the hands of ten families. It is bad enough that the Walton family thinks it is their right to put everybody out of business as it is. Bringing it back affects only the richest of the rich and they will still have enough money after they fork over a few million. How much money do they really have to have anyway?

The Democratic Party must bring forth a plan to instill the concept of public service to the country. John Kennedy first gave us the idea, it is our party’s heritage. We must push the idea again. For our country to be strong again we must know what it means to be Americans again. It means that along with all these rights we have we have responsibilities to give back to our country.

Now for those young Americans who agree to give back, we have to make them a deal – a free college education. Whether it is academic or trade school, no matter which. That is right, free. For those that agree to give two years of public service with a written contract, they get two years of college; four year written contract, four years of college, and a six year contract, six years of college. This can be military service, teaching in rural or inner city, or other public service. Details can be worked out. It is a fair deal. Remember, FREE, none of these bogus loan programs, we have allowed colleges to price themselves out of the range of the average American student’s ability to pay; and we seriously wonder why the world is kicking our collective ass on test scores? Give me a break! For twenty years the Republican Party has been destroying public education in this country to create their dream of a cheap labor force. Their idea has always been to keep the workforce dumb and drugged up. That keeps everyone compliant. Well, it is time to end that. If we can spend billions of dollars to rebuild Iraq we can damn sure spend billions of dollars to educate our own citizens. If we don't have the money we can damn sure find it. If we have to we can look in Halliburton’s, Exxon’s, Chevron’s, Pfizer’s, and Merck’s bank accounts for the money that they have screwed us out of over the past eight years.

Americans are not dumb. Sometimes we are naïve and slow to catch on to the fact that we are getting screwed. I think by now most people are catching on to the fact that the oil companies have been doing the biggest screw job ever. Oh yeah, we have heard all about the lack of refining capacity and all the rest of the propaganda about how all the drilling rigs were shut down in the Gulf of Mexico because of the hurricanes. Isn’t it amazing that after Exxon announced the $9.9 billion dollar third quarter profit that gas prices started coming down even though refining capacity didn’t increase and the drilling rigs didn’t start producing again? Does the term LIE come to mind? Remember when Big DICK Cheney got all the oil companies together to write new legislation when the Bubble Boy first got elected then said he didn’t have to tell anyone who was there and what they talked about? Think maybe those chickens are coming home to roost?

The Democratic Party has to become the new energy party, not the old energy party. WE have to create new tax laws that will be innovative in crating new development of alternate energy sources. If we had followed Jimmy Carter's wishes during the first oil embargo of the 1970’s we would be not be fighting over oil in Iraq now; and the Bush crime family wouldn’t have their own bedrooms in King Fahd’s palace.

We need to become the world leaders in clean energy using fuel cells, wind energy, solar energy any kind of renew ale energy we can come up with. When we do this, the Arabs can take their oil and shove it. WE have made the Arabs rich in Petrodollars and it has come back to haunt us. We are reaping the harvest of the seeds we have sown through the years trying to always have cheap energy.

We must do what the Europeans do. Tax fuel inefficiency and give tax breaks to fuel efficiency. We have it backwards. We give tax breaks to people who are driving around in their toy hummers, while our children are being blown up in their real hummers fighting for Bubble Boy’s oil that the bastard won’t even pay to put armor on.

Another thing the Democrats must do when Detroit comes wanting tax breaks because their workers are costing them too much money is to tell them to stop blaming the workers. Detroit’s cars just plain suck. They pay their executives way too much money for building cars that nobody wants to buy. Have you looked at a US made car lately? Your grandmother wouldn’t drive one. Hire some designers with creativity. If Detroit would build cars that people want to buy, that get decent gas mileage people will buy them whatever the cost is. Americans love their cars, but they have to be an extension of their personality and nobody thinks of themselves as a box on wheels. If they want tax breaks that include cuts in workers pay and benefits they also have to include cuts in executive pay and bonuses. Fair is far. No more gutting the little guy while the big guys walk away with the gold.

Quit letting the Republicans throw up straw men and issues like “illegal immigrants”. Hell they are the ones that keep hiring the illegals so that they can drive wages into the basement. Force American companies to pay market wages. If workers are paid what the job is worth, Americans will take those jobs. Why is it that “free market” arguments are ok for the oil companies? They can price their gasoline at whatever level they can squeeze out of people, but when American workers try to price their labor at appropriate levels the corporations and government work together to destroy them?

Enforce the laws against hiring illegals and employers will stop hiring them. They will be forced to pay what jobs are worth. Sure prices may go up, but American workers will then have money to spend. We will rebuild the American Middle Class and the American dream will no longer be the American nightmare. Corporate executives always scream about welfare for people, but they have no objections for welfare for corporations. They are always looking to Washington for corporate bailouts.

Write the tax laws that will force corporations who are making billions of dollars in profit to offer benefits to their employees. Stop companies like Wal-Mart from having unfair cost advantages by using state Medicaid funds as their employees’ hospital plans. Change the tax laws that allow corporations to write off their expenses of shutting down their factories and plants to ship jobs overseas. Write the tax laws so that Americans will benefit. Multinational corporations have no loyalty to anyone except themselves. American workers must be protected by our government, because there is no one else to do it. We must take back the government, so that it represents our citizens again, not the lobbyists.

No more government contracts for companies who hide their offices overseas. If they are not willing to pay American taxes on American earnings screw’em. There are plenty of American companies that are. Make it easier for companies to do business with the government. Allow agencies to shop on the open market for product. Empower government employees to use their own judgment in saving the government money. Change the concept of government that if you don’t spend it you lose it. Allow government savings to be carried over to the next budget year. Allow innovation. Force change in the bureauracracy. Hire people who believe that government has a purpose in bringing relief to the suffering in our society. Government can be and should be a referee between the rich and powerful and the not so rich and powerful. It should not be the tool of the powerful and the religious fanatics that it has become.

Our government worked well for 200 years with the separation of church and state. Things started falling apart when Reagan started inviting the crazies like Falwell and Robertson into the White house. It is time to put those crazy uncles back in the attics where you hide all the other erelatives you are embarrassed about. You definitely don’t let them set your foreign policy. Shit when you let them get away with calling for the assassination of the heads of foreign states you know things are out of hand.
It is time to start enforcing laws concerning tax exempt status and getting involved in politics. You cannot have it both ways. You cannot tithe on Sunday then use that money tax fee to buy politicians. If it is being done, and we know it is, it is time to stop it. It is time for main stream churches to stand up and be counted. This disastrous war in Iraq has got us running on three cylinders. All of our military experts have said that Rumsfeld is in the process of destroying our military.

We have dispatched our children to war without the tools and defenses that they needed because the chickenshit republicans wouldn’t pay for it. Their tax breaks were more important to them than the safety of the working class soldiers. You can bet that if it was the children of the rich there would have been no expense spared in getting the armor that was needed. You didn’t see Rummy riding around in unarmored Humvees did you? Hell no!

Now we have the idiot in chief saying that as long as he is President we will remain in Iraq, Rumsfeld has done a wonderful job running the war and revamping the army. Just what planet is this guy from? Does he have any grip on reality left? I want to harm to come to this man but I want his ass impeached immediately.

The Neocons now admit he is incompetent. Even they admit he is no longer useful as a puppet. They are beginning to look for another fool to put in his place to mouth their lies. Only 29 percent of the die-hards even think that being in Iraq is worth it.

Now is the time for the Democrats to strike and they are all standing around wringing their hands stabbing each other in the back.

I call on every person who remembers the real Democratic Party to call, write, email, scream, or do whatever it takes to demand that the Democratic Party get some guts to take on these Republican bastards.

Call the liars what they are. When Bush lies say he is lying, don’t say that the record shows that is not true.
Stop pussy footing around. Use words that mean something. Use words that the American public want to hear. Use words that leaders use. Stop being losers. Stop smiling for the cameras.

Start showing that you care more for the country than you care about being re-elected.

Stop being afraid of losing.
