President Bush - Credibility Shot to Hell


"No need to worry about security" about US ports is what President Bush had to say about the potential deal to change the mangement of some of our largest ports.

"Brownie, your doing a heck of a job" is what the President said about the former FEMA director while touring Hurricane Katrina damaged areas.

We are making progress in Iraq, we will get Osama Bin Laden, Iraq has weapons of mass destruction, we are not involved in torture, we are not violating the constitution in eavesdropping on Americans, leaking the name of a covert agent will not be tolerated. These have been the meaningless rhetoric coming from the Bush Administration.

Tax cuts for the higher income brackets are being extended, while the budget deficit continues to reach record levels.

The picture on this post was taken just a few days ago. It shows the rows and rows of still occupied trailers in what is called FEMA City - near Punta Gorda, Florida. ALMOST TWO YEARS after Hurricane Charley swept through they are still occupied. While the damage was severe, it is pale in comparison to Hurricane Katrina last year.

Today it was reported that 25 million Americans relied on food kitchens last year. And the number has been rising. I think there are many things we need to be worrying about Mr. President, and yes, Port security is one among many. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear you are worrying about any of these any more. It is time for a change.

On the bright side - if there is such a thing here - folks are catching on to what a disgusting piece of $h1t Bush is. The 14Feb Gallup poll showed his approval rating now down to 39%. But my god! How long will it take to get these lying bastards impeached! Ugh. Their strategy seems to be to just do whatever the hell they want to do - and ignore whatever they don't want to notice - and the law and our Constitution be damned. Hey, have you seen a 4th amendment anywhere? It seems to have gone missing.
