Subject: RE: BS: Bad Moon Rising for US Conservatives
Bush collected 800 thousand dollars from Enron. More than all the others together. Talk about not revealing the truth, Cheney is not about to tell congress or anyone what went down in those visits from Enron executives. UJ do you seriously believe that 800 thousand dollars didn't buy access to the white house? Senator Fienstien was rebuffed in her attempt to see resident Bush. (Probably because she didn't contribute to his campaign) Also, do you really think that the media is harder on Bush than they were on Clinton? He took 8 years of their digging. Bush has had one year. So, his approval rating is 80%. Ok, why? not because he doesn't piss off allies and scare the shit out of enemies to the point where they (China) is building their nuclear weapons store in response to his idiotic star wars scheme. His approval rating is high because too many Americans are steeped in "Patriotism" and flag waving and drum pounding. All he has to do is wrap himself in the flag and millions of idiots will follow him into hell. It worked for Hitler and Napoleon. Now, it's not all his fault we have had warnings as far back as Nixon and every president since him has done little or nothing about the CAUSES of terrorism. Any asshole can order bombs to be dropped on a country already reduced to rubble by the Soviets. But, it's that old saying, "Do something, even if it's wrong." Dubbya inherited a bad situation, and his handling of it guarantees more serious terrorist attacks. We will never be safe again thanks to the assholes we send to Washington.
