why is it that the 'stupid idiot' Bush is always so skilled at mass conspiracies?

quote:
That's a pretty limited thought pattern on choosing a leader. In addition, most Americans that I know definately know where the hijackers came from. WMD isn't settled yet (6 month rule). 9/11 could not have been prevented by the policies of any administration that has been in place in my lifetime. Surely you are not naive enough to blame Bush for 9/11 are you? |
It's only a few examples of the Bush administration's attempts to spread fear and confusion. Orange alerts, duct tape, Golden Gate Bridge attacks, it's ongoing. In fact, we're due for another terrorist 'alert' quite soon.
Governments have a duty to protect the lives of their citizens. The American government failed to do this, and then started pleading that 9/11 could not have been avoided. I believe it could have been avoided, since there was ample intelligence pointing to the dangers, not least, the men who wanted to learn how to fly a jumbo jet, but not how to land it. There should have been an inquiry immediately into what went wrong on with the intelligence and security services. An inquiry was launched the very day after the Titanic sank, the same should have been true for 9/11.

Sure, we get a nice high for our beareucracy, that doesn't have to cut down, and restructure itself. Did you know that our spending levels in Education and Healthcare are among the highest, while grades have been slipping the past 20 years, so from top 5, we reached the honourable 29. Or was it 28? or was it 31?
And in healthcare, our hospitals went on strike, due to "lack of funding"?
But with your IV, we don't have to fund a part of our aquisitions, we don't have to clear-up the **** that goes on in Education or Healthcare.

Sorry Azazel, but if Mighty Israel can't keep 3 million people who are fenced in, highly dependant on the Israel economy and relatively lightly armed dows successfully without having its economy in the tank, no way in hell you could handle the occupation of anything else: heck, the Syrians are the ones still sitting in Lebanon, not you guys.
As for Bush: I don;t find the cartoon unfnny, and neither would 290 million Americans: Bush won the elction, but he did not get the vote of the majority of even the voters in 2000. And his poll numbers are slipping. They have every summer: this time though a new war of his making is not in the horizon (if he screws up into one, that is a negative), and unlike on 9/11, a huge terrorist attack would crush his support with moderates and independents. At best, he can hope the economy picks up steam, but a jobless recovery won;t help him. As for Iraq: Until he comes out and is honest and says that the thing will cost 3 billion a month and require tens of thousands of troops ofr multiple years, it will only eat away at him: his best hope is to go to the UN, to cut the costs to the US, but then he will be exposed to the anti-UN people, and his opponents can always ask why he did not do that in the first place.

But still, even if those people told us they were working towards disarming terrorists, etc, I doubt I would trust them farther than I could throw them.
