Editor: First there was President George H.W. Bush, who all by himself started this horrendous slide we're on, with his going to get Hussein (who had no intentions of harming because Bush and President Reagan had dealt under the table with him during the Contra thing). So we had "Desert Storm," which proved absolutely nothing. A lot of troops got sick and the U.S. spent billions and billions of dollars.
I saw George H.W, Bush on a PBS interview. He was almost bawling about the fact that Desert Storm and not killing Hussein might have been a mistake. Ha!
Along comes President George W. Bush, who is going to prove to the world that he's to finish what Daddy couldn't, with his weapons of "mass destruction" and "mission accomplished."
The only thing that's been accomplished is that thousands of troops are dead and wounded. Again billions and billions of dollars were spent on a cause for which we're hated for our efforts. We're pretty much hated throughout the world.
George W. Bush says he's bewildered as to why the economy decided to take a dump during his administration. Ha!
It's because Bush and his oil cartel buddies have robbed the little guy over the price of gas for the last two years and because Bush managed to have one or two wars going at all times. That's why.
Let's not forget good old Neil Bush. He was single-handedly responsible for the savings and loan bailout after he gave his friends free loans to the tune of billions and billions of dollars.
We are $11.3 trillion in debt. The country is darn-near bankrupt. I'm not saying it's all their fault but they sure did their share.
If the Bush boys aren't hanging their heads in shame, they ought to.
Daddy wants Jeb Bush to run for president one day. God forbid.
