It hit me - the security it to protect Bush from his OWN people!!! |
|
Not any terrorists - Bush is afraid of the American people!!! He looked all shifty like, left and right, walking the 100 YARDS he dared to walk within the ticketed "compound" and I thought he looked like he would pass out from relief when he finally got into the reviewing stand.
This man, this "regular guy," president, hates 1/2 of the American people.

1. I think he hates all Americans, |
|
including his theocratic supporters. The only thing Bush loves is money and power.

Money and Power have been pretty good to Bush. I mean think about all the scrapes that Money and Power have gotten Bush out of. How many scraps have the American people gotten him out of? Bryant Check it out --> http://politicalcomment.blogspot.com

2. You just now figured that out? |

Read the Patriot Acts and the Homeland Security crap. It's ALL about protecting them from the disenfranchised... BHN

3. Duh. Terrorists/would-be assassins are a concern, but... |
|
Pissed-off Americans making them look bad is what they're most afraid of.

6. That was the reason for the creation of Homeland Security |

Edited on Thu Jan-20-05 04:07 PM by proudbluestater
not to prevent terrorists from striking US from without, but to prevent US from striking out against our own fascist government.
Think about it. How many hijackers were there? 19, most of whom are Saudis. Do you think the actions of 19 folks warrant the creation of an entire department with 180,000 employees? Of course we need to fight "terra," but if the threat were only from without, would we need THAT many people? If the threat were only from without, wouldn't we have secured the borders and made sure every container shipped into this country was checked?
If We are the good guys, why are WE being searched at airports?

8. I think the threat of terrorism is WAY overplayed |
|
and has been for a long time. But to think that a president hates and fears his own citizens, not just the crazies, but all of those who voted against him.
God, I hate what this man has done to our nation.

There was a story some time back on how many theats the boy king gets...
He is not paranoid... and neither is the Secret Service... Remember the SS has to protect him, regardless of who happens to occupy the WH.

11. a government which derives its power BY THE CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED |
|
Hmmm, you think just maybe they know they DO NOT have consent? Maybe the obscene clambake going on in D.C. is smoke & mirrors to convince us they won, that we gave consent?
Pop a cork and have a toast the the US Citizens who remind the junta they DO NOT have the consent of the governed! Up the Rabble! We have them held captive behind their walls and their goons. They are the ones who are prisoners. DO NOT FORGET THAT!

12. I can see NO difference in this 'militaristic' display from those held... |
|
in the former Soviet Union, in North Korea or those of Nazi Germany.

15. Actually, Bush probably hates 99% of the American people |
|
at least, that is what I would think, based on his policies. Plus, he strikes me as an arrogant snob.
And, yes, I thought this was just as funny as the convention, when Bush needed all that security to protect himself from Republicans.
They know there is no terrorist threat. I think a lot of this is just an act. Its what his supporters want to see.
