Can it be ANY WORSE? Bush has made it embarrasing to be an American!

It took Bush to make you embarrassed? I submit that you simply weren't
paying attention before.


Any look at a bus tour of Americans in Europe is enough to make me embarrassed,
but Bush has definitely made for a bad example abroad.

The sad thing is that Bush's father was actually a pretty good leader.

Bush 43's performance has had me thinking the same thing of late, and you would certainly never have heard me utter anything like that a few years back.

Bush 41 at least acted like he stayed awake during history class.

I was sorry when Bush 41 got elected, but he did a lot better than I had
expected and surely a lot better than his predicessor. He at least tried
to slow the destruction of the broadcast industry that Reagan and Clinton
accelerated.

I was in the Phillipines, though, when Vice President Bush gave a talk about
how great Marcos was and how he had built a great democracy in the pacific.
This was after about thirty years of martial law, political prisoners being
filled with pounded hot peppers, and so forth. Democracies like that this
world doesn't need.

people are getting tortured, and killed on both
sides, our good name is getting dragged through the mud, and we're
paying for it. It ain't 'cute'.


Many here seem to think that we have no "good name."

It's damned sure something that even I thought about, so how not these

brought it up about November of 2002 right here.

And how come we haven't heard anything more on the oil depot attacks of last

Will, like the Bush Administration, is of little value other than the
rhetoric, and the facts are now outshining the rhetoric. He's an anarchism
in the wealth of opposing information we now have, and Fox News becomes less
of a News organization and the Foxes are starting to look quite dumb to most
everybody.

43% agree with the war and with the fallout of the "abuse", expect it to get
worse. Can we expect anything but a late October surprise of capturing
Osama Bin Laden? Will that even help?

Yeah right, *you're* little Miss All-Important who would never make a
rhetorical comment, eh Roger? No, if everyone would just follow the pages

and
pages of "valuable" incisive guidance you've posted here on RAP, why we'd

have
world peace and there would be no Al Quada anymore, right Roger?

You have had almost nothing constructive to say for a long time, all

you
do is bitch, bitch, bitch.


Hmmm. Typical. Not topical, but certainly typical. Did you keep all these
"valuable" posts, Will, or are you just trying to remember through the fog
of the Burning Bush? I have everything I've written here since 5/13/2002.
I believe I can pull up any and all examples from that time forward where
I've specifically pointed to the way the war was going to go, somewhere from
almost a 6 months prior. However, after a search, the first post I see that
has anything political in it from 2002 is, surprisingly enough, July 4th,
2002, and it's directed at you and has something to do about the Patriot
Act. I quote the beginning of the passage below for google purposes.

"A) The "Patriot Act" hasn't been tested in court and may well be found not
to be Constitutional... "

And here's where the dredded top posting comes into play. Not only do I
have all my responses to your posts where I top post, but I have all your
responses. It's a book in itself. Not a good one, mind you, but a book
indeed! g

Bud, you're going to have to go the extra mile here. And if you haven't
figured out that being directly derogatory to me bounces off like water off
a duck's back, then I guess you won't. But since this is a public forum, I
keep what I write and it includes what you write, in toto. No google
searching here, so context is the key. My concerns for those fighting and
dying aren't bitching just as those tears from the families of the fallen
aren't crocodile tears. If you choose to say, "that's the price of freedom"
then I say to you that freedom is way too easily bought for you and those
that would risk the lives of other people's loved ones for their own
personal freedoms.

And I don't know why you complain. I feel just as strongly that your family
was wronged during WWII as I feel that those of Islamic faith who are either
guests in our country or citizens have been wronged by the actions of this
government. I hold no truck with either. I hold no truck with moving the
wronging of Americans to other peoples throughout the world, moving
"suspect" people to countries that will utilize torture, to saying "**** it"
and just simply using abuse and torture ourselves with the deniability of
"corporate security individuals", even as I abhor the fact that Bush decided
that American's were the first to have to pass the test of your loudly
proclaimed "patriotism". Bush spirited more Saudis out of the country when
no other airliners were flying than those that perpetrated the attacks on
America, and of those, fully 1/3 were Bin Laden family. Any WAR President
would know that one has to hold those people for interrogation, were they
not personal friends of the family.

I believe your own President has cut your legs out from under you way down
past a stub. Which is only fair since so many are coming home limbless
these days. Do you realize that the severely injured list is upwards of
20,000 Americans who won't have a normal life ever again? Do you imagine it
will be nice for any one of those guys who, in later life, finally does
something decent like run for Congress and then has THE PRESIDENT's own
party organization bash him for his "un-patriotic" life and "soft on terror"
voting record? Can you imagine leaving an arm or a leg on the battlefield
of a foreign country only to have it chewed on by feral dogs and dung
beetles with you then being attacked for your lack of patriotism?

I'm sorry, Will, but the **** YOUs should be yelling out to you from all
over the world. The words I write here are of little import in comparison
to that rousing cry.

I don't know, George. I vote, I call my representatives, I email, and have
even emailed John Kerry, William Pitt and a number of others. I see the
same cautious moves in congress, and the same stupid mistakes I warned Kerry
about.

I don't blame them. Will doesn't believe I should have a voice, so why

I don't know why you keep referring to me as a leftist. I did choose
Clinton and then Gore, but prior to that I voted for Bush41 and Reagan, but
voted for Carter for his first term. Seems like I picked 4 out of 5
winners, none of whom would I consider Leftist, certainly not in the
republican arena. And I've since had my eyes opened on who was really a
good President and not. I'm not willing to let HISTORY judge Bush43. He
needs judging NOW.

You seem to think this is political and you want to make my concern for
Americans dying in a bad war something less than a real concern. But you
see, I know what happens to our fellows when they come back and get stomped
on by the people and by the selfsame government that put them into harm's
way in the first place, and this is what I'm trying to talk about. You
wanna make it about Bush bashing and about me being a Leftist (just short,
in your venacular, of being a communist (the bad kind)), then fine, because
you obviously are not reading the words I've written or your comprehension
is on some other level.

I care about this country and I know that might doesn't always make right
unless it's the last alternative, and even then we haven't always pulled it
off. I'm positive that there are too many skeletons in the closet and there
are too many ties to people and countries that can quickly shut the US down
because of our dependence upon their good will (people) and their oil
(countries). Do you remember 1973 and the Oil Embargo? These people have
already made it clear they can shut down the US or force Americans into new
habits, like buying Pintos instead of VistaCruisers. But you want to make
it about me; that I'm nothing but a complainer, bitching all the time, and
never coming up with any solutions and I even have a bad candidate for
President. Geez, would you like to come over and kick my ****ing puppy too?

And if you do hear me clearly, then you have very good ears, my friend,
because I'm pretty certain that my cries are drowned out by the cries of the
rest of the world like the reflected light from another system's planet is
overshadowed by the light of its own sun. That's how bad it is.

I said directly after 9/11 and I still say it. We will become more like the
terrorists in this "war on terror" that commits this country and it's people
to a never ending war. You know the words. You can kill a terrorist with
bullets and bombs, but you can't kill terrorism with the same weaponry.
It's a disease, and you can only dry up the scum from which it feeds by
recognizing the culture that feeds it. If it's true in a petri dish, it's
damned sure true in the rest of the world, unless you're willing to try to
target Arab genetics with some type of weapon that decimates only them and
leaves all of us here. Which makes us as bad as the terrorists and worse.

And if it's not obvious that we are a ship floundering rudderless in a rough
sea, then I don't know how I can make you see it.

At least maybe I can get you to wear a lifejacket.

I caught it. I assume I used "it" twice, one for one subject and again for
another subject, so specifying is necessary. I can't type as fast as my
brain tells me what to write, which is why I sometimes have an hour between
posts. It takes a long time to proof-read, and I don't always catch the

But what about some answers from William J Miho..

What's with America's State controlled Rape Rooms, mass graves and torture
chambers?

You can't Answer this at all Can you Will, your Facade of Lies is cracking,

America went ahead and did all the things that they lied about Saddam
doing.

Justify yourself loser.
