So where were we wrong about bush? My Take. |
|
He never trotted out the corpse of osama before election day. We won the last election. There was not a massive terror attack before election day. We did not attack Iran. We did not find WMD that we were to plant in Iraq. Oil prices did not drop to near record lows before election day or after we took over Iraq.
He has not done jack shit to help his party win.
My take. The damned honest truth, and which is more scary then him being the head of a world conspiracy, is that he is just one dumb son of a bitch.
Evil? Yeah, I will give ya that. But the head of a lot of conspiracies? This guy could not conspire himself out of a wet paper bag with a gang of guys with chainsaws.
He did not engineer 9/11 - if he had, he let the ball drop big time and never followed through.
At the very worst in the world of tin foil, he is but a puppet. Other than that, he is just a real dumb guy who is in way over his head.
I won't give the guy any credit. He did not engineer a lot of things, he just simply fucked em up.
He cannot give a decent speech. He cannot pull together a coalition. He is like a deer in the headlights in a crisis (ala pet goat).
And THIS is what scares me about the guy. That he is clearly incompetent.
BFEE?? Hell no - more like BFIE, Bush Family Idiot Empire.
Like his dumb ass dad before him he had high ratings and then they went downhill.
They don't have the brains to run this country, let alone a massive conspiracy.
Which leaves me to wonder too - if 9/11 and other things were a conspiracy, who is really behind them and will they be out of power anytime soon? Or are they unelected people running the show?

1. I was NEVER wrong about bush. I almost got in fights with people after 9/11, when I insisted that |
|
"none of this is going to make him any smarter."
Even my own wife screamed at me for saying that.
But I was right.

9. Jeez, only ten percent of us? But now that you mention it, I suspect you're right. |

NOBODY seemed to want to fact the truth in October of 2001.

even though he did NOTHING to prevent it, was on a 30 day vacation and sat like a deer in headlights in a kiddie classroom for an obscene amount of time - I thought the whole g.d. country had lost its collective mind.

18. hey, as I pointed out to the sheeples who were bleating that popularity number |
|
(interesting that der chimpenfuhrer liked THAT "focus group", eh?) that THAT meant that 28 MILLION people did NOT approve of him and his handling of the situation. even if we assume that half the population is under voting age, still means approximately 14 MILLION people didn't approve.
PROUD 10 percenter!!

11. I was never wrong about him either. |
|
There are people I have not spoken with since before the 2000 election, when I told them they were idiots for planning to vote for him because he was "wily" and because he was gonna give them tax cuts so they could live like billionaires instead of millionaires.
Stupid fucks. I hope they take their bloody, murderous tax cuts and stick them up their rotten orifices.

Somebody is running it and it makes no f....ing sense so who is and why....money...oil...power..
Why are they controling these guys to run a stupid war...are they trying to counter China? Is this some sort of stupid global war. I hope not.
WE are all O....N....E
unfortunately ethics, compassion and furthering of all beings trumps....oh..oh..oh.... .bad word.

6. I was never wrong about the blivet; I've always and forever hated |
|
him since he stole Ann Richards' job. I've never voted for him. I did, however, believe Colin Powell for way too long. And that I regret.

7. Funny with this Iraq Surge (S) and Accelerate (AC) SAC |
|
I was thinking on the same lines.
Bush could not plan 9-11, he could only bumble into it. His big decisions are utterly miserable, unstoppable and escalating failures driven by a massive psychotic ego. SAC is the next blunder and it is a dozy. Death Accelerated, some new thing that will get him off since swinging Saddam is passe. Few People profit from Bush's blunders and many more will not survive them.

I've had a couple glass fulls now, and by the time I got to the end of your post I wanted to stand up and cheer!
Before I heard him speak, I had him pegged as an asshole and it went down from there a hellin after he opened his mouth. Then I knew he was a stupid asshole. Now I know he's an arrogant, stupid, asshole. Jesus! Does it get any worse than that? The guy is scum.

We gave Shrub too much credit for giving a damn about the US. I think we give him too much credit for giving a damn about the GOP. Like he actually cares about those suckers after he's fulfilled his personal mission? They'll have to change that two-term limit first.

12. Gas prices did drop pretty good before the election |
|
As far as some of the other things. I think they would have if they thought they could get away with it. If there was an "October Surprise" There would have been investigations all over the place. Noone one would have believed him. They will use dead Osama when they think they need him most, remember they still need a boogeyman (even one thats already dead like Bin Laden).
No doubt he is a puppet though. Just because theese things havent happened yet, doesn't mean they wont. They have to wait until they know they will get away with it.

The beady eyes, the smirk, the swagger, the arrogance - it all spelled "compensation." I'll agree that he's not the "engineer," but the front man trotted out to appeal to Idiot America (the people who vote for a president based on quaff appeal...). Think back to those 7 minutes on 9/11. Hell, any one of us would have calmly excused ourselves and taken charge. Dim Son sat there like a deer in the headlights, awaiting his orders. It's truly sickening that so many Americans thought this man was worthy of being Prez.
What do you mean by this?: "He did not engineer 9/11 - if he had, he let the ball drop big time and never followed through." They were gunnin' for Iraq and 9/11 made it a hell of a lot easier to take their ball and run. I'm sure they think they're running the country just fine - they're making obscene amounts of money, corporations rule, and just like throughout history, they've capitalized on issues that keep The Masses divided.

IF he did engineer 9/11, he sure did not make himself look good at all did he?
had he had prior knowledge he could have lept up, stopped a plane or two, looked like a hero instead of zero. Instead, he looked like someone who had no idea what the fuck he was doing.
He did nothing at all. Had he known about it, he could have played this well. He could have gotten credit for saving lives, tied it all to saddam and taliban, then to Iran, and gotten more then he did.
But he was caught with his pants down, running scared. Some think bush was behind 9/11, I only see him as using his failure to try and make himself look better.
The guy is an F'ing idiot.
