Why I Hate George Bush!

What an old fart I am, I have seen twelve presidents in office. There were some I liked: Franklin Delanore Roosevelt, Bill Clinton and sometimes Jack Kennedy. Most I took with a grain of salt not really liking them or hating them but thinking they might have done better than they did. Only two I really hated, Lyndon Johnson and George W. Bush. bothTexans. At this time I goning to give you my reason for hating our current President George W. Bush.
. Last night on the Bill Moyer”s show a guest describe the utter hell that the invasion of Iraq has brought down on the Iraqi people. Hundreds of thousand dead, three million driven from their homes. Those still living in Iraq experiencing daily horror including never knowing when they’ll face a life threatening attack and many other terrors. I’m sure the invasion was nothing more than a greedy grab for both the wealth of Iraq and whatever could be stolen from the United States. It brought hell to so many innocent Iraqi’s. Damn Bush and his gang.
A lot of Americans are suffering because of the Bush administration. Because our government in no way attempted to prevent it a large part of US industry was shipped overseas depriving many American worker of his livelihood. The Unions found themselves in a bad situation and many of the rights, privileges and benefits that had been won in earlier labor struggles were lost. Working for a living became much more unpleasant if you could find a job. A lot of Americans lost friends and love ones in Bush’s unnecessary wars. It is a really expensive thing to get sick in our country today and bush did nothing to alleviate that situations instead he supported the medical industry and insurance industry at every turn. Bush has hurt so many Americans.
When George Bush came into office there was no Federal Deficit the Clinton administration had more money coming in than was going out. In a year the Bushites had turned that around and today the United States Government is further in Debt – close to nine billion dollars—than ever before. They blame this on the war, but we’re not fighting an enemy that draws us into pitched battles or requires us to use a large amount of heavy weaponry. The strange thing about this expenditure is that the Pentagon can’t account for most of it. We really don’t know where this money is going. I feel the Neocons are pulling of the biggest rip off in human history.
The economic attack mentioned above is part of a large-scale attack on America’s children. They will have to pay this debt. Another aspect of this attack is the cost of higher education, In the last six years tuition costs have skyrocketed. Yet, a person cannot make a decent living without extensive education. The middle level jobs that got many people I knew a decent lifestyle have been shipped overseas and won’t be available to today’s kids. Health care costs have shot up. America has always been proud of the high level of its medical care, but today we stand below all but a few industrial countries in the care provided. Our children are not going to have soundness of body and mind necessary to compete in tomorrow’s world. Today Congress is trying to correct this, but Bush threatens to veto the bill they're sending him to do this.The attack on our children shows how very vile Bush and the neocons are.
I will continue with this theme tomorrow.
