Bush-bashing? THIS is Bush-bashing...

[carrrnuttt]

Found this rant online:

The difference between the charges of these people against Kerry and the charges against Bush, is that the Bush charges are made and supported by people who were direct witnesses to Bush's behavior. Here are some of my favorite:

Bush made a girlfriend get an abortion in the 70's before it was legal.

Bush used cocaine and failed a drug test in the military and was arrested for cocaine posession. He was given community service and his record destroyed.

Bush was AWOL from the Texas and Alabama National Guard. He was a coward who did not want to go to Vietnam and checked a box stating so.

Bush was arrested 3 times. Once for Drunk Driving and had his license suspended.

Laura Bush killed a boyfriend by crashing her car into him.

Bush was a drunk. He drank heavily until he was in his 40's. He never sought or recieved treatment so he is still a drunk, just a dry one.

Bush did not marry until his late 30's. He was quite the ladies man. He was having sex out of wedlock so he is an adulterer.

Bush is a crappy businessman. Every business he has ever been a part of was run into the ground.

Bush sold stocks in his company based on insider information for profit while other shareholders got screwed.

So we have an alcoholic, coke head, adulterer, cowardly AWOL, lying, baby killing, failed businessman, insider trading idiot as president running against a war hero who fought in Vietnam then took the morally courageous stance of protesting a war that he thought was wrong and served his country as a prosecutor and senator ...who will you chose.

Now THAT's Bush-bashing!

Bitch away, Bushites...let the flames begin.

I'd say that was pretty good, better than anything I've heard against Kerry so far. Aside from Bush's policies and platform, which are horrible in my opinion, on a personal level, the man's character is beyond despicable.

It seems like the Bush camp concentrates on attack Kerry, saying he flip flops. Big deal, times change, so does popular opinion. A politician is supposed to act out the will of his constituents, ya know. They say he had a questionable service record in Vietnam. What is without question is that he saw active combat duty, and saved the life of a fellow serviceman. Bush dodged the draft by joining the Air Nat'l Guard, and didn't even honour his commitment to that.

It seems any issue that Kerry is attacked on, Bush is even worse on. Oh, except maybe flip flopping, as terrible a thing as that is.

[FireBball972]

yes, I would like to know how many of those claims are based on hard fact or simply speculation?

Care to prove your point!

These 3 links have problems.

the first lunk is a fake ticket on the ticket his DOB is 7/06/76 and the date of the ticket is 9/04/76. So Bush was 2 months old when he was pulled over for DUI.

Second link is about Laura Bush what does she have to do with this?

Third link has nothing negative about Bush just how he made his millions.

It's not fake, it's a typo: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/bushdui1.html

Check the title, and theme of this thread. Last time I checked she's a Bush.

Now how many times have YOU, and your cronies bashed Mrs. Kerry in here?

Here's a quote from the article:

In 1990 Bush unloaded most of his Harken shares for $835,000 about two months before Harken announced a big loss. That triggered an investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission into possible insider trading by Bush, but the SEC took no action.

There are more serious allegations I found online regarding this, including a possible cover-up at the SEC, but I decided to post this one, as it was posted as an actual news article, instead of some left-wing propaganda.

To be honest with you what anyone including Kerry did in private years and years ago really shouldn't make a difference but when running for office everything is drudged up. Now if Bush stated he was a model citizen when he was younger that is an open book to attack then. Kerry used his miltary service to try and swing votes and this make it public and mde it come under attack. BTW did you hear that Kerry called one of his old miltary buddies and asked him why they are talking trash about his service record. For the record I was no innocent kid or young adult. If I stayed on the path I was on as a kid I would be dead or in jail but that doesn't change who I am now or make me less of a person.

She may be a Bush, also you forgot to mention Bush's daughters. But I don't like to trash the wives or kids of both Kerry and Bush. They are not the ones running or the ones who control the government so I try to leave them alone. I could of posted tons on Kerry's wife but I chose not to.

Please find one time I bashed Kerry's wife. I will gladly remove the post.

The SEC cleared him of any wrong doing.

Bush screws the American worker by supporting corporate welfare for companies who move their factories to Third World countries so that they can pay their workers next to nothing. Maybe the American people should take a lesson from Dubya's book while he was in the National Guard during Vietnam and just not show up for two years.

He was responsible for 152 executions while he was Governor of Texas.

He lied to the world about the "threat" of Iraq's chemical, biological and nuclear weapons and the capability to deliver them, even though the CIA said there were none.

The National debt under Bush has increased so much that the average American share of the debt is $24 000, compared to 500 dollars when he first took office.

He cut healthcare benefits for war veterans.

43 000 000 Americans with no health insurance.

All-time world record holder for most corporate campaign donations. He also sets the record for most people protesting a leader world-wide (Can you say 10 million people?)

He cut funding for 375 000 low budget college students and reduced pell grant amounts to such a severe degree that it effectively cause 84 000 students to no longer be eligible for pell grants.

After sending troops to die in an unjust and unprovoked war, he has yet to attend any soldier's funerals.

Failed to get Osama "Dead or Alive".

He refuses to fire Lt. General Jerry, maybe because he said, "George Bush was not elected by a majority of voters in the United States. He was appointed by God. He's in the white house becuase God put him there.

First president in U.S. history to enter office with a criminal record.

He has spent over 100 billion dollars on the "War on Terror".

He is on pace to have taken more vacation than any president in history, including a 28-day holiday right before 9/11, for a grand total of 6 months of vacation.

Bush JR. is endorsed by fundamentalist Pat Robertson who claims that God told him that Bush will win re-election and that "It doesn't make a difference what Bush does because god is blessing him". This is the same genius that blamed the 9/11 attacks on gays and suggested that the U.S. State Department should be "nuked".

He is too dumb to eat pretzels

In April it was announced that occupying American forces were not going to bother to count civilian casualities in Iraq following the U.S. invasion. Public outcry soon reversed that policy (at least publicly) but it nevertheless demonstrates the callousness and complete disregard the Bush Administration has for the people they claim to be liberating.

And finally, take this last one as you will:

"Under President George W. Bush, current U.S. foreign policy is nicely summed up in the policy paper written in the 1990's by The Project for the New American Centry (PNAC), whose authors include senior Bush Administration officials including Paul Wolfowitz and Vince President Dick Cheney. The strategy outlined by PNAC was a plan to make the U.S. the sole world super power by controlling Middle East oil through invasion of Iraq and Iran, for a start, PNAC also planned to kick North Korea's ass into oblivion (Axis of Evil, anyone?) PNAC Recognized that implementation would be a difficult sell to the American people, and that a "Pearl Harbour-like event" would be necessary to implement their scheme; then came 9/11. Under the guise of combating terror, and promoting freedom and democracy, their reactionary political agenda is being executed."

I used google, but couldn't find a tax law that gave a break to companies that shipped their labor to third world countries. I'll keep checking, but it is more like a sound bite then actually policy.

Maybe the American people should take a lesson from Dubya's book while he was in the National Guard during Vietnam and just not show up for two years.

Get an honorable discharge? Millions have.

He was responsible for 152 executions while he was Governor of Texas.

I didn't know he pulled the switch. I want that job. I'd also prefer that those bastards die screaming instead of going easy.

He lied to the world about the "threat" of Iraq's chemical, biological and nuclear weapons and the capability to deliver them, even though the CIA said there were none.

This dead horse again? The CIA did say they were there. Every major politician in this country said they were there.

The National debt under Bush has increased so much that the average American share of the debt is $24 000, compared to 500 dollars when he first took office.

Now thats a whopper The national debt did not go up 280%

He cut healthcare benefits for war veterans.

You obviously have been taken in by government numbering. Instead of raising benifits by 15% he supported raising them by 5%. Of course the democrats call that a 10% cut, but as a mathmatician, I can assure you that its not a cut.

43 000 000 Americans with no health insurance.

Who's fault is that? Health insurance is not a right and it shouldn't be funded by the government. You're responsible for you - not my pocket.

All-time world record holder for most corporate campaign donations. He also sets the record for most people protesting a leader world-wide (Can you say 10 million people?)

Sweet! I wish I could get that much money for campaigning and no politician ever turns down that kind of money, regardless of party. As for other people protesting a foreign leader That sure holds a lot of weight.

He cut funding for 375 000 low budget college students and reduced pell grant amounts to such a severe degree that it effectively cause 84 000 students to no longer be eligible for pell grants.

Its about time. I paid for my college. Either study hard and get a scholorship or work for your education.

After sending troops to die in an unjust and unprovoked war, he has yet to attend any soldier's funerals.

Just war that was provoked and I didn't know that Presidents went to soldiers funerals. When was this policy initiated?

Failed to get Osama "Dead or Alive".

Did someone say the hunt was over? Or are you just making this shit up as you go?

He refuses to fire Lt. General Jerry, maybe because he said, "George Bush was not elected by a majority of voters in the United States. He was appointed by God. He's in the white house becuase God put him there.

And he should be fired because...? Oh - someone mentioned God. Get over it.

Now we can see the same list we've seen here several times over the last few years.

First president in U.S. history to enter office with a criminal record.

And?

He has spent over 100 billion dollars on the "War on Terror".

Money well spent.

He is on pace to have taken more vacation than any president in history, including a 28-day holiday right before 9/11, for a grand total of 6 months of vacation.

That number only works out because they consider any time he's in Crawford as being on vacation. Ever hear of working from home?

Bush JR. is endorsed by fundamentalist Pat Robertson who claims that God told him that Bush will win re-election and that "It doesn't make a difference what Bush does because god is blessing him". This is the same genius that blamed the 9/11 attacks on gays and suggested that the U.S. State Department should be "nuked".

And this is bad for Bush because...? Kim Jong Il supports Kerry - I suppose that means Kerry is a wacko (he is, but for other reasons)

He is too dumb to eat pretzels

Brilliant one.

In April it was announced that occupying American forces were not going to bother to count civilian casualities in Iraq following the U.S. invasion. Public outcry soon reversed that policy (at least publicly) but it nevertheless demonstrates the callousness and complete disregard the Bush Administration has for the people they claim to be liberating.

How does that sho contempt for the people?

And finally, take this last one as you will:

Holy - now there is really groping in the dark.


Thanks for the entertaining post - it cracked me up

[Z_Fanatic]

lol, This thread should've been labelled Democrat VS Republican - Bashing.

Does anyone really think one can change the mind of a white-male conservative by personally attacking Bush? It matters less who the current President is.
