Amazing to me that * would rather his ratings slip into the abyss
than do something about the gas prices that are quickly putting the middle class under.

Not even an attempt to bring the prices down.

The good news:
The unchecked gouging will drop * into said abyss, and he will go down in history as the worst POTUS. Will probably win at least the House or Senate (if not both) back.

The bad news:
We are going to have to suffer through the whole thing with him.


I am not a religious man. But I pray that you and all your neighbors don't go under before the ship can be righted.

1. Surely you don't expect him to put effort into doing something positive.
He will instead try to make it look like it's somebody else's fault, or at least not his. And of course, he'll have to smear someone who has criticized him on the issue.

3. First, bush is so arrogant that he won't allow any criticism of his
evil policies. Second, he could NOT care less about regular 'Mericans. Any one that doesn't get that, is delusional! And BTW, ** isn't a religious man either, it's all a sham, one created by Rove to get ** the religious nut jobs' votes. It apparently worked.

4. There is absolutely nothing amazing about it.
When his term is done, he and all his buddies will still be stinking filthy fucking ridiculously fucking stinking rich, so much so that they won't even be able to count their INTEREST earned. And we'll still just be the morons who allowed him to get away with it.

5. Amen! Why should he care? He isn't running for re-election and
he knows that when he leaves office, his filthy rich oil buddies are going to take care of him.

6. You actually think Bush gives a damn about the middle class?
Other than as cannon fodder for his wars? Other than votes to be diebolded and miscounted to ensure Repubican "victories"? Other than as a source of tax money while the country club set get even more loopholes, benefits and breaks? His utter arrogance and disdain for the poor and middle classes is almost as staggering as the insane deficit he will leave us as part of his legacy. That is if he actually leaves us. I'm still waiting for the next big domestic terror attack (staged or genuine) and Bushs' dictatorial proclamation that he will have to suspend the Constitution and stay on in office for national security, continuity, etc.

The Working Poor and let workers from other countries take over as many jobs as possible (Outsourcing and Insourcing), nueter Unions and any Social Programs.

9. Its the POWER...they be drunk with the POWER to do as they PLEAZE
Edited on Sat Apr-22-06 08:11 AM by opihimoimoi
They listen to themselves and their EVIL SELFISH PHILOSOPHIES....rejecting, dismissing, other voices and concerns

Arrogant and thick headed...they march off to War on Common Sense/Logic/Sanity, and Reason...and our purses/wallets...

They will say anything, do anything, and steal anything to obtain/retain the Power to ROB/"Lead"/Dominate/Rule

In the End, they will harshly find that TRUTH is the POWER....and the Eagle is a flightless DODO without Hubert's LEFT WING..

10. The Bushistas think they got America in the bag like the pig in the
poke. They may be right, but that doesn't make them correct! What they need is a good ass whipping in November. If The Dems can take back the house the fur will fly...Reapeat The FUR WILL FLY...

11. Randi (AAR) had a psychiatrist's explanation on her show:
The Boy King is so damaged from his childhood that he's not rational. The outside world (meaning you and I and Iraq, etc) don't really register as real. His reality is an inner world of self hatred and terror, and so he's doing everything he can to make the outside world resemble what he feels inside:

Terror.

Babbs and George never talked to him, or discussed his sister's death. Dhe died of Leukemia and no one ever told George what was going on. One day, they all stopped going to visit her in the hospital. The next day they were out golfing.

He's so ashamed of his own weakness and powerlessness that he tries to put it onto everyone else: Abu Graib and Gitimo abuse, bombs, war, occupations, it's all him acting out his inner hatred of his own needy childhood.

Only he's got the whole world acting it out with him.

If you want to read the book, it's called Bush On the Couch and the writer's name is Frank. Great read. Everything, including his plummeting poll numbers makes sense when you've read 20 pages of the book.
