BUSH'S STATE OF THE UNION SPEECH

Wednesday, February 01, 2006

Listening to Bush speak last night I thought that the next morning pundits and normal Americans would characterize his speech as a bunch of lies, total bullshit, clever spin or the words of a great leader.

Those that pay attention to what goes on in the U.S. and the world, realize that President Bush, at this time, has no real options. He knows he has fucked up big time, but what do you want him to do, ask for forgiveness? No, he has to put a very positive spin on his message and make sure Americans believe him and history will bear him out to be a master spinner or master bullshitter (actually it is not him but his buddy Karl Rove that puts words in his mouth).

Just look at state of the union under Bush. He has not stopped terrorism; he can’t even catch a bunch of Arabs hiding in caves. His inability to take care of Al Qaeda means that this nation is in greater danger than it has ever been before. The 9-11 Commission has stated that nothing has changed since 9-11. The cops still cannot communicate with each other or different departments (fire department), our borders are a joke; in other words, Bush has done nothing to improve our safety except waste billions on the Homeland Security Department which has proven to be totally incompetent.

The Katrina mess showed more of Bush’s incompetence to handle our safety and welfare and he had the gall to stand at the podium and praise himself for doing such a good job.

Iraq is just making us look stupid as hell. Our soldiers continue to die every day. Our soldiers continue to be severely maimed every day. Iraqis die by the hundreds every month. The insurgents get stronger every day. The country will break into civil war any day now and HE wants us to stay the course – WHAT FUCKING COURSE!

He wants to attack Iran and Syria but he does not have enough soldiers. I bet he could convince the American public to support attacking those countries though.

He is fighting AIDS by giving billions to “faith based” agencies, read Churches. They will pocket the money, build mansions and buy limos and lecture people to abstain from sex or doing drugs and they will not get AIDS – they will not tell them to wear condoms because that is a form of abortion.

Bush is spending 7 BILLION in Iraq each and every month. He has asked for more. During his speech he told the nation that he has cut wasteful spending (in non security areas) a whole bunch; he stole from the needy to fund his war and enrich his corporate (Halliburton) friends.

History though, may see Bush is a different light. Yes, he is lying but to him the end justifies the means and his end is the salvation of the entire world and what could be better than that! Only history will tell if he has succeeded or not.

Just think about it, what sane person would go to war for no real reason except that it gives him a chance to introduce democracy into the Middle East and maybe change the course of history.

Is he a madman or a mad genius? I think he sees himself as a Christian Prophet on a mission to change the world order by hook or by crook. One think is certain; he is getting his way for better or worse.
