daddybush isn't just now stepping in to help w, he's ALWAYS been there

[Philosoraptor]

In my opinion anyway, daddybush and his pals have been fully in charge of jr's tenure from day one, I've never bought the notion that w is actually the president and actually running the show, he's too stupid, the adult monsters are really in charge, and always have been going back to 1980.

Pretty embarrassing spectacle anyway, a 60 year old president of the U.S. having to have his daddy the former president step in to fix the damage jr. wrought.

But I've always felt it was a cheap hoax, jr. has really never had any real power or authority above daddy and his monster cabinet. It's the same old vampires, the bush crime family, same old bush foreign policy and same old nazi overtones.

jr. is now exposed as the useless figurehead he's always been.

1. I think you are half right

I think for the most part Daddy friends were running thing BEHIND the idiot's back. Only now is the idiot bring them forward as the New face of 43 admin.

2. Back to Nixon

Nixon was a protege of Preston Bush, he ran Nixon's campaign in 1960. Rummy and Cheney were in Ford's administration. They've run a big chunk of Republican politics for a long time. Perhaps Rummy & Cheney got sucked away by the neocons, I don't know for sure. But there's no doubt Poppy's approach to foreign policy is destructive, just not as destructive as Jr's.

4. Herbert Walker

has been the front man for the New World Order(Federal Reserve, Bildeburg,Trilateral et al) since the 60's.

8. What is the new world order?

Seriously, I have no idea what people mean when they refer to a new world order.

[malaise]

12. New World Order.

The radical right wing political economics of the 1980s, characterized by Reaganomics and Thatcherism, in combination with the collapse of Stalinist regimes in Eastern Europe, and the ineffectiveness of the U.N., have virtually ushered in a new world order.
Under this 'new world order', neo-liberalism and globalization became the dominant paradigm. The political thinking of the New Right represents the rationale for the rejection of state-led provision and the dominance of transnational corporations.


The idea was to force governments to 'structurally adjust' by devaluing currencies, divesting state owned enterprises and deregulating their economies. The Group of seven used the IMF and World Bank to force their wishes on the rest of the planet. Political democracy and trade union rights became less important than the rights of corporations.

Thatcher et al believed in the economics of Hayek and Friedman and rejected Keynsian ideas re the role of the state.

Within 20 years, the gaps between rich and poor have led the likes of Jeffrey Sachs (once a neo-liberal guru) to abandon this bankrupt theory and describe Hayek's 'Road to Serfdom' as rubbish. NOLA's destruction, the destruction of native industries in developing countries as well as the mass migration of people from the South to the North are all the evidence you need to throw this theory into the bathtub with Grover Norquist et al.

Of course the neo-cons loved this and people like Wolfowitz have taken over the world banks to scout for profitable state owned enterprises like oil, water, electricity, etc.

Castro was unto them early and Latin American governments, led by Argentina and then Chavez have rejected this crap for some time. Others are catching on.

the time to provide such a comprehensive answer.

15. No problem n/t

[Sad4world]

22. Thanks and well put

There is a lot to it but in a short synopsis your reply is well done.
I was unable to reply until now.

23. It's Neo-Liberal "End of History" and "End of Ideology" BS.

Inspired by Francis Fukuyama's book The End of History and the Last Man{/i].

24. Education is a good thing

All of this is hard to believe but it has been happening for a long time.

There is a shadow world government. I first became aware of this in a book by Taylor Caldwell called "The Captains and the Kings" in the early 70's.

Do a google search for the New World Order and you will be amazed.

It's all about money and control. A sad commentary on mankind.

Sorry about the delayed response.

malaise did a nice brief job in my absence.

5. understandable why he much prefers the company of Bill Clinton

Clinton is the son Bush Sr never had

6. it is so messed up that it will take jeb years to fix it up to be able to invade Iran

9. Bingo n/t

[Hubert Flottz]

10. Iraq is just another drunk driving ticket for Mad Junior!

[opihimoimoi]

16. Jr is living in a fog, a stupor, a semi coma, a blur.....The Iraqi war is

reduced to a ticket?? Well, almost....Bush thinks all can be spun, fixed, rehashed, reversed.....to his liking...

The Dems thinks otherwise BUT guess who got the HOUSE and a new Broom?

[Hubert Flottz]

18. Let the asskicking begin!

Nobody has ever made bush mind his manners in his life...but I think Nancy will!

Edit...I hope she wears a number 15 boot when dhe does it!

[opihimoimoi]

21. I hope she can remove her foot once the boot has been IMPLANTED in his ASS

Nose Picking in Public is NOT ALLOWED

11. I think you're half-wrong...

Poppy and Babs have always encouraged George prove that he's a worthless idiot; so Poppy can prove to Babs that he's the idiot to save him.

[marmar]

14. And considering the son he has to step in for....

it's steady work.

[goclark]

17. Poppy has always been in the Middle of every evil

deed and his father before him.

[Marnieworld]

19. Exactly

Poppy has been doing everything for Junior, cleaning up all of his messes his entire life. It has never been any different. Poppy really is a 3 term president that got around the pesky constitutional requirements.

[Squeech]

20. Dunno

but I don't think so. I think Cheney has called most of the shots in Junior's crappy administration, and what's going on now is Poppy seizing the reins.

Remember all that guff about how Dumbya listens to a higher father? That wasn't just dog whistle rhetoric for the fundies, that was also his assumption of independence from the soi-disant grownups who were supposed to keep him from going off the rails.
