It's not just Bush
It is all of the incompetents that have been given choice positions in this government. Their qualifications? They raised a lot of money for Bush and the Republican Party.

This is what happens when you pass over the best qualified people for sycophants who wouldn't know public service if it bit them in their collective asses.

1. Bush bears the most guilt but I am also ashamed with non-gulf governors
not acting on their own despite Bush and sending their ANG and relief efforts down there ASAP.

3. Bush is still just a puppet. The puppet masters in control are the
conservative ideologues who don't think out the effects that their carrying out their ideas have. It's all about building their own personal wealth and screw the rest of the world. This repuke government of ours is nothing like what we lived with in the past. It is like the New Deal government of Franklin Roosevelt only 180 degrees out of phase.

4. Nominees need to be qualified for their positions
This is what happens when tradition allows any president to pick who they want, without taking into question that individuals qualifications to do the job that they're selected for.

The rules need to be changed. But who can change them?

5. it's not just bush -- it's a huge number of the electorate
Edited on Thu Sep-01-05 02:22 PM by xchrom
who voted for him -- and continue{d} to believe in him past anything that anyone call rational.

it's the corporations that under both political parties tell our politicians what they want -- and have it served on silver platter -- paid of course by our tax dollars.
especially the dollars of blue states.
