Bush's Successes

Dear Reader,
I'm getting sick and tired of my fellow Americans
saying that the presidency of George W. Bush is a
failure. With the string of successes he's had,
nothing could be further from the truth. Let me list a
few:
1. He has successfully rid America of that troubling
budget surplus and turned it into a $500 billion
deficit.
2. He has successfully helped America's trading
partners have the highest trade surplus with us in
America's history.
3. He has successfully lowered the taxes for the
richest Americans and corporations at the expense of
99% of the American population.
4. He has successfully started another Viet Nam in
Iraq after lying to the whole world.
5. He has successfully pushed the price of gas up to
the highest level ever here in America.
6. He has successfully allowed American corporations
to dramatically increase their pollution.
7. He has successfully thrown about 10% of the
population out of work.
8. He has successfully allowed corporations to export
our best middle-class jobs.
9. He has successfully divided our country as never
before.
10. He has successfully driven our oldest allies away.
11. He has successfully united the terrorists as never
before (he said all along he was a uniter, not a
divider).
12. He has successfully broken his oath to uphold the
constitution of the United States of America.
13. He has successfully united Democrats (yay!) as
they haven't been for years (I told you he was a
uniter).
14. He has successfully driven me out of the
Republican party for the rest of my life.
You know, with a string of successes like that, it's a
wonder America is still standing.

Then the Republican Convention...I happen to like Zell Miller. Seems many a Democrat feels he's a Republican in Democrat clothing.
Kerry is of the same mold as Al Gore....when he speaks he tends to drone on and on, and has no emotion in his voice or delivery.....very boring to watch and listen to.
How true, it might be getting close to the time to post a link to the generosity index again. The left is all for requiring people to pay for others expenses, but it is republicans that freely give to the benefit of others, not democrats. The reps just don’t like the idea of the government choosing who is worthy and who is not with our money, we can decide that for ourselves.
did you talk to the terorists, yourself and they told you that? or were you attending a "terrorists for Kerry" convention? LOL
"our income is $45,000 a year for a family of five). I want our tax cuts to be permanent. I have no doubt they will go up if Kerry is elected. Small businesses in our city are growing and hiring thanks for President Bush's tax cuts."
you tax "cuts" are most likely comparable to mine, you may have gotten the child tax credit, when my tax guy was raving about it, and told me to thank president Bush for my eight hundred dollars, I told him, "yeah, that will come in real handy when he puts me out of a job too!" you see, I work in social services. Bush does not believe in human services.
and I would like to know what town you are in where local businesses are thriving!
I agree with you on the gun thing, but I do think something needs to be done about gun crime, and Bush's plan is to "give 'em enough rope" which is inhumane and supports the theory that Bush would like "undesireables" to kill themselves off.
I am glad you are pro life, so am I. so what do you think Bush is going to do about abortion? what has he done in the last four years? nothing.
why not gay unions? if you are not gay, how can it possibly hurt anything?
"If Kerry would be elected, he would appoint very liberal judges to the Supreme Court (this is what I think Hillary is really after) and other courts."
Maybe, but maybe not. and so what? I think Hillary would be great.
"President Bush is passionate about teachers and education"
not half as passionate as he is about oil and MONEY!!!!
"He's a decent man who enjoys hard work and knows what it is, his
faith in God is sincere,"
If this is true, then how can he be allowing Iraqi children to die under the guise of anti-terrorism? what, GOd only loves America?
what would Jesus do?
DOn't you think that if he really had faith in GOd that he would do all in his power to avoid suffering over there? would there have been a war? Or is GOd only a good thing to have for practical purposes, but when it is war time, Jesus' teachings of peace and love adn forgivenss a re all just out the window. Ok. I can see that God is real important to you.
seems that in your book being a democrat alone is enough to make you "weird"
But it also sounds like a real boring book, and I am glad I am not required to read it.
I could barely contain my frustration while listening to Edwards' and Kerry's plan to create millions of jobs while raising both the minimum wage (noble idea, but destined to cost jobs as labor costs rise) and income taxes on the so-called rich-those who create most of the jobs (yes, removing a tax cut is the same as raising taxes). He even mentioned a popular buzz-phrase, "corporate welfare" and promised to close corporate tax loopholes. I cannot see why corporations should ever have to pay taxes. Corporations are owned by their stockholders. When we sell stock, we pay tax on the profits. To tax the corporations on top of that is just double-taxation: legal, but wrong. Bush is not perfect. Nobody is. But, IMHO, he currently has a better grasp of the world economy in which we live. For that and many other reasons I will proudly cast my vote for Bush/Cheney.
