Bush Doctrine failure #346

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18399660/

In its annual global survey of terrorism to be released later Monday, the
department says about 14,000 attacks took place in 2006, mainly in Iraq and
Afghanistan , claiming more than 20,000 lives. That is 3,000 more attacks
than in 2005 and 5,800 more deaths, it says.

Iraq and Afghanistan the top terrorist targets... kinda makes it hard to say
the Bush is protecting their citizens when his foreign policy has caused more of
their deaths. But I already know that the Bushie will say he doesn’t care about
Iraqis…that is until he likes to point out that Saddam is gone and that Iraqi’s
are better off even if they are dying by the thousands every month and then he
says it doesn’t matter. That’s the tragically circular dance.

The data proves (again) what a miserable failure Bush is. Corruption, immorality and a less safe world….the Bush Legacy.

Bushie immorality...you can't make this stuff up

Another week, another shameful revelation. If this was a book, no one would buy it b/c there is NO WAY one Administration could be this corrupt and amoral.

Another Bushie engaging in "immoral" (by their own standards), illegal and ridiculous behavior. Unbelievable how corrupt and amoral this group is.

it's a good thing they ran on restoring integrity to the WH. Can you imagine how bad it would be if they ran on something other than morality and integrity?

Honestly, the amout of corruption, immorality and illegal behavior is astounding. It's behavior I wouldn't expect in anyone, but these people are supposed to be the best and brightest that the GOP has to offer. I guess that's what happens when you reward blind loyalty instead of actuallly choosing people based on merit and integrity.

I can't wait to hear howthe bushies approve of this or at least blames it on gay, immigrants, the poor, liberals, the media or people who actually have read a book in their lifetime.

Business as usual for the Bushies

From CATO:

The Federal Emergency Management Agency on Monday defended how it awarded contracts to maintain trailers for hurricane victims, but Democratic
lawmakers said they'd press for further investigations," the Jackson
Clarion-Ledger reports. "In a report that will be made public later this week,
the inspector general found that FEMA gave many of the contracts to politically
connected firms -- including Shaw Inc. of BatonRouge. Shaw hired former FEMA
Director Joe Allbaugh, one of PresidentBush's friends, as its lobbyist."

Just another example of the Bushies turning other people's misery into financial windfall for themselves and friends. I would say "making lemonade out of lemons", but for this group a more appropriate saying would be "when life gives you lemons, the Bush WH will take your lemons(without a search warrant) and make lemonade under a no-bid contract and sell it back to the government at a 600% mark up."

Restoring integrity every single day since January 2001

Response to a Bushie's email

My Bushie friend called me and someone out as a wimpy liberal and somehow those of us who oppose the Iraq war and more accurately it's horrifying mismanagement by this administration were responsible for Iran getting nukes:

My response:
The fact that you are 100% wrong (as usual) is becoming scary. If someone like you, with an advanced degree is so woefully uniformed about the world, how the hell can America compete let alone defend itself.

You're always talking about results (that is until we point out that Bush has produced zero results in nearly 7 years and we provide the data to prove it and then you start with the race baiting or name calling).

BUSH RESULT #1: The facts are...whatever problems you had with Clinton's plan, NorthKorea STOPPED making nukes. Then under Bush's watch NK made many ofthem, and launched a few missiles into the Sea of Japan. Finally, Bush did what you said he would never do and that was give NK some gasolinefor them to stop making nukes. His pissing contest not only didn't work, but it made the world less safe.

BUSH RESULT#2: Bush's folly into Iraq based on lies of WMD has "emboldened" Iran to the point that they not only make nukes at will, but are taking our allies sailors prisoner without concern. Bush has showed his hand and proven to the world that he is incompetent and impotent...so much so that a common thug like the President of Iran has NO concern that Bush can or will do anything while he makes nukes.

BUSH RESULT #3: Remember when Bush looked into Putin's eyes and saw his soul? Too bad he didn't realize the Putin is every bit a despot that Stalin was. Sure he's not killing millions, but Putin's pushing the line with stifling freedoms and basically rolling back every gain made by Gorbachov.

BUSH RESULT #4 The Taliban controls 95% of Afghanistan. Hezbollah and Hamas arerunning major parts of the middle east. Genocide in Sudan, terrorism upglobally, etc. You want to call people "mush heads"...you should look at your hero.

Worst president ever.

GOP Syndrome...lie about EVERYTHING

Sorry, hunting twice in sixty years does not make you a "hunter". I would imagine the people he's pandering to would clearly agree with myassessment.

I used to fish when I was a kid...doesn't make me a fisherman. I'vealso played Lazer Tag 3 times, it doesn't make me a Laser Tager Guy. Oh yeah, I've raced go-carts on a track a few times, that doesn't make me Michael Schumacher.

The WH hates this...

Diplomacy again...

I can't wait to hear the Bushies talk about why Syria talking withIsrael about peace is a bad thing.

After all, Bush's little invasion of Iraq that was going to cause Democracy to flower in theMiddle East has worked out so damn well, why wouldn't invading Syria. This has got to kill the Bushies. http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070404/ts_nm/syria_usa_pelosi_dc_10

Terror Watch: A fired U.S. attorney strikes back

The Justice Department called David Iglesias, the U.S. attorney in
NewMexico, an 'absentee landlord'-a key reason listed for his firing
lastDecember. Just one problem: Iglesias, a captain in the Navy Reserve, was off
teaching classes as part of the war on terror. Now Iglesias is striking back,
arguing he was improperly dismissed.

WEB EXCLUSIVE By Michael Isikoff and Mark HosenballNewsweekUpdated: 12:26
p.m. MT

April 4, 2007April 4, 2007 - When he wasn't doing his day job as U.S.
attorney in NewMexico, David Iglesias was a captain in the Navy Reserve,
teachingforeign military officers about international terrorism.But Iglesias's
military service in support of what the Pentagon likes tocall the Global War on
Terror (GWOT) apparently didn't go down well withhis superiors at the Justice
Department. Recently released documentsshow that one reason aides to Attorney
General Alberto Gonzales cited injustifying the decision to fire Iglesias as U.S
attorney late last yearwas that he was an "absentee landlord" who was spending
too much timeaway from the office.That explanation may create new legal problems
for Gonzales and Justice.Iglesias confirmed to NEWSWEEK that he was recently
questioned bylawyers for the Office of Special Counsel, an independent
federalwatchdog agency, to determine if his dismissal was a violation of
theUniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA), afederal
law that prohibits job discrimination against members of theU.S. military.At the
encouragement of Office of Special Counsel director Scott Blochand his deputies,
Iglesias said he is this week filing a formal legalcomplaint with OSC against
the Justice Department over his dismissal onthis and other grounds. (While the
Justice Department normallyprosecutes USERRA violations, the OSC, an independent
federal agencythat protects the rights of whistle-blowers, takes the case when
thepotential violator is the federal government itself.) "I want to makesure
they didn't fire me because of my military duty," Iglesias said."When I was away
from the office, it wasn't like I was going on vacationin Europe." (A Justice
Department spokesman did not respond for arequest for comment on whether
Iglesias's firing might have been aviolation of the law.)
