sillyman...normally i laugh at most of your posts and i can understand your frustration and directing some of that at bush, however the bush article while it's attempt is obviously to discredit him, it is in fact very slanderous, inferential, misleading and really distorted bullshit taking half-truths, or attempting to blame him for programs that were already in progress from previous administrations or attributing to him things that are of global nature etc etc etc.
it's emotive, misleading, distorted and a very crappy attempt to assassinate his character.
Past work experience:
* Ran for congress and lost. do you know how many times Lincoln ran and failed to get elected, I think it was 7 times
* Produced a Hollywood slasher B movie. who cares, clinton gets a blowjob from very young intern, several times in the whitehouse
* Bought an oil company, but couldn't find any oil in Texas, company went bankrupt shortly after I sold all my stock. distortion, half -truth
* Bought the Texas Rangers baseball team in a sweetheart deal that took land using tax-payer money. Biggest move: Traded Sammy Sosa to the Chicago White Sox. emotive terms "sweetheart deal" meant to cheapen his business dealings, traded a good player away, like no other team has ever done that
* With fathers help (and his name) was elected Governor of Texas. meant to discredit, inference only because of his father
Accomplishments:
* Changed pollution laws for power and oil companies and
made Texas the most polluted state in the Union. untrue, the latest smog report has los angelas and orange county as still the smog captial, emotive, not disclosing all the facts of the changed legislation, meant to get the response, he only favors oil co's power co's and doesn't care about the environment but fails to mention what exactly was changed and why the laws were ludicrous
* Replaced Los Angeles with Houston as the most smog ridden city in America. simply not true, this just came out again last week as a fact, and even if it were true, how did he do it anyway? it might have more to do with migration trends, population growths of a city and wind/basin characteristics not an individual
* Cut taxes and bankrupted the Texas government to the tune of billions in borrowed money. funny i don't recall any state in the union being bankrupt, running deficits yes, but clearly emotive and which state in the union is not in deficit?
* Set record for most executions by any Governor in American history. some would say this is a good thing, ask the little girls family that had their daughter raped several times then dismembered by a sicko if this is a good thing
* Became president after losing the popular vote by over 500,000
votes, with the help of my fathers appointments to the Supreme Court. this is pure emotional bullshit, "help of my fathers appointments" to win the election, to suggest it was political is amazing and in fact the democrats were banking on their appointed judges to go against bush, didn't happen. As to the 500,000 votes, that is a paper thin difference, effectively it is a dead heat, which the election was, however why would you use the concept of popular vote, the electoral system is not popular vote, he won it by the system in place, by state electoral college. To state the rules of a game and then say to the winner, well if we ran it this way you wouldn't have won is idiotic
Accomplishments as president:
* Attacked and took over two countries. distortion, did not "take over", this is such bullshit
* Spent the surplus and bankrupted the treasury. this is the clinton legacy, check the facts
* Shattered record for biggest annual deficit in history. clinton again, but also each successive year the economy grows and budget surpluses and deficits will always be bigger, very misleading
* Set economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any 12 month period. see above, legacy of clinton
* Set all-time record for biggest drop in the history of the stock market. clinton legacy, however in percentage terms no, point terms yes, more emotive bullshit
* First president in decades to execute a federal prisoner. and this is a problem?
* First president in US history to enter office with a criminal record. i assume this is dui?
* First year in office set the all-time record for most days on vacation by any president in US history. again to be emotive
* After taking the entire month of August off for vacation, presided over the worst security failure in US history. this was bush's personal fault? when clinton had the chance to get bin laden why didn't he? this was worse than pearl harbor?
* Set the record for most campaign fund-raising trips than any
other president in US history. at least he is earning it the right way, remember the clintons who turned the white house into their fundraising "hotel"
* In my first two years in office over 2 million Americans lost their job. legacy of clinton
* Cut unemployment benefits for more out of work Americans than any president in US history. distortion, funny i remember him extending the benefit time frame for those unemployed
* Set the all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12 month period. clinton legacy
* Appointed more convicted criminals to administration positions
than any president in US history. this is distorted bullshit
* Set the record for the least amount of press conferences than any president since the advent of television. meant to distort again, is this a problem? did other presidents use this as an election tool? give me a break
* Signed more laws and executive orders amending the Constitution than any president in US history. and the point is?
* Presided over the biggest energy crises in US history and refused to intervene when corruption was revealed. really....this is just misleading bullshit
* Presided over the highest gasoline prices in US history and refused to use the national reserves as past presidents have. misleading - in relative terms it was not the highest, it was not a "crisis" and the reserves are there for real threats, imagine if during the iraq war we couldnt get oil and we had no reserves because we depleted them for the simple reason the gas price was high, that would be irresponsible
* Cut healthcare benefits for war veterans. very immotive
* Set the all-time record for most people worldwide to
simultaneously take to the streets to protest me (15 million people), shattering the record for protest against any person in the history of mankind. sign of democracy to protest, countries are freer now than at any time in history to protest, more people now than anytime in history, numbers or always grossly inflated by protest organizers, who cares(http://www.hyperreal.org/~dana/marches/)
* Dissolved more international treaties than any president in US history. there are more treaties now than ever, is this a bad thing? what were the reasons to disolve the treaties, maybe it's better in the us interests, very emotive crap again
* My presidency is the most secretive and un-accountable of any in US history. this is pure bullshit
* Members of my cabinet are the richest of any administration in US history. (the 'poorest' multi-millionaire, Condoleeza Rice has an Chevron oil tanker named after her). [this is the richest generation ever to walk the earth, has nothing to do with bush[/b]
* First president in US history to have all 50 states of the Union simultaneously go bankrupt. untrue bullshit, no state has gone bankrupt
* Presided over the biggest corporate stock market fraud of any market in any country in the history of the world. unfactually true, check history, also these excesses were a clinton legacy
* First president in US history to order a US attack and military occupation of a sovereign nation. untrue and distorted
* Created the largest government department bureaucracy in the history of the United States. definetly untrue, this is a legacy that only the democrats can hold for the generations of wanting bigger government
* Set the all-time record for biggest annual budget spending increases, more than any president in US history. and in the future the increases will be bigger, fact of a growing nation, again a distortion
i'm getting tired of going through this bullshit....but you get my obvious point how this is a pure crap amatuerishly distorted article
