The Bush Presidency Condensed

CIA leak investigation; Rove not yet cleared.

On-going congressional investigation into the debacle of Katrina.

Jack Abramoff and his (and other lobbyists') influence with the current administration.

Lowest Approval Poll Numbers for Bush

Poor communication regarding an executive officer's actions and lack of subsequent communication to the American public.

The continuing scandal of torture in Abu Ghraib

Competent? Moral? Ethical? Legal? You decide.

Oh yeah -- I forget the warrantless domestic spying!

For all his faults, Bill Clinton at least tried to direct the country according to the country's best interests. Bush has left the controls and is too busy helping stuff everyone's pockets full of money. So let's add the $8.2 TRILLION national debt as well.

What else could we add? The smear campaigns, the inability to accept responsibility for screwing up. The attacking of the "leaks" to news rather than the news itself (the escape of terror suspects, the warrantless wiretaps, the administration never addresses the crime, only the leaking of the crime). The pervasive use of terror to pass legislation that erodes American rights. The attack of Iraq without even an exit strategy or proof that they really posed a threat (remember the WMD's threat that has never materialized? Oh yes, that's right Saddam was a bad, bad man and had to be removed, that was number 2 or 3 in the list of bullshit reasons for going into Iraq after the WMD's never materialized.

The legacy of these crooked bastards should be repeated until every person in the country knows exactly how anti-American their activities really are and how detrimental they are being to the health and well being of this country.

It is absolutely imperative that the natural checks and balances of the government be restored and the Democrats take back control of the House and Senate. Without the balance, we will have more and even worse disasters to deal with.
