Muhuhahahaha... http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5iveHdM6NTvDwMxv4pPvKLYdPU-gQD9A6TD4G0 Bahahahaa. I bet more information about the Bush Years will be coming out bit by bit, and eventually we can reconstruct one of the worst Administrations since... well... Warren G. Harding's, who was likewise oblivious to what his cabinet was doing behind his back. Although, I am not sure if Bush's ignorance is real or played, but I know for damn sure that Cheney was involved. This is why we need to scrap the GOP, and the Democrats. These two parties have sucked the blood out of the country for long enough - and if they can't be fixed from the inside, then we might as well force a change from the outside with a third party.
I saw that news today. Outrageous. I saw a further excerpt in which Ridge referenced how the GOP were using the threat of terrorism in the 2002 midterm elections...and they just kept it up. Hmmm....so higher ups in the administration simply used misinformation to treat the American public like a yo-yo jerking them around to stay in power. I'm pretty convinced that money in politics turns the system incredibly evil and corrupt. Beyond that the extreme elements of the GOP play to fear/ will say any outrageous lying thing to gain power and say any lying thing to retain power. Its scary. I suppose all people in power tend to that. But that Bush administration and the way the GOP acts now....they have made the lie an art form. Congrats to them. They are damn good liars.
Every new bit of information about the insane amount of corruption of the Bush admin makes the "outrage" over Obama trying to fix the health care system (and you have to be living under a rock to not realize it needs fixing) look all that much more ridiculous. The Bush admin. was essentially terrorizing the American people. Obama is trying to help sick people get health care. Hmm... Which thing should a logical thinking human being be outraged about, I wonder?
