Papantonio: The Latest Chapter Of The Bush Disaster Family

We're going to have another one of the Bush boys try his hand at creating a circus-like chaos in American democracy. My bet is that this Bush is probably capable of leaving America in more of a disastrous state than his brother, the Shrub. Would he be likely to top what his older did for all of us? Could he top an economy in utter shambles; a deficit for America that reached its highest point in the history of this country; an oil war in Iraq where we spent $2 trillion on behalf of Exxon and BP? Could he really do better than a war where thousands of our soldiers were either killed or crippled in a war dreamed up and promoted with lies delivered by George Bush and his sick little Vice President Dick Cheney? Maybe he can match the Shrub's level of incompetence where big brother allowed 3,000 Americans to be murdered on 9/11 because he forgot to read his presidential briefing points.

Or that they think they can steal it anyway so all they need is a cover line to explain it to us with.
Bush was not so bad after all...he saved us from the terrorist...it was the Democrat spending that did us in.....blah blah blah...you know the drill.
All you need is a good story line and you can make anything true.

I cried like a baby when Al Gore conceded. I can only do so much alone; like talk until I'm effing blue in the face and make comments. I can't get to all the cover-ups like Robert Parry can..

there are lots of people that see it for what it is, but no coordinated effort is made because we scatter our energies all over the place...and the right wing exploits that.

Of course, we deserved a better past, too...

Let us all strive hard to hold the evil at bay. It's a challenge, but we can do it!

Blessings.

I believe that you know much more than I do about the big mess this bunch has caused. Hover and stare if you have to.
