I was browsing google looking for a spoof of visa's priceless commercial with a picture of some iraqi trying to burn a US flag and catching himself on fire, I didn't find that but I did stumble across <a href='http://www.jerrypippin.com/Bush_Business.htm' target='_blank'>jerry pippin.com</a> with a section devoted to our current president. It was decent and made me think [I belive the phrase I'm looking for is "eye opening", so I decided to stop sanatizing hard drives [your tax dollars at work] and post this, it's not really discussion forum material becuase it only presents one side of the argument, but here goes

George W. Bush, The White House, USA

Past Work Experience

I ran for US Congress and lost.

I produced a Hollywood slasher B movie.

I bought an oil company, but couldn't find any oil in Texas; the company went bankrupt shortly after I sold all my stock.

I bought the Texas Rangers baseball team in a sweetheart deal that took land using taxpayer money.

With my father's help and name, I was elected Governor of Texas.

Accomplishments as Governor

I changed pollution laws in favor of the power and oil companies and made Texas the most polluted state in the Union.

I replaced Los Angeles with Houston as the most smog-ridden city in America.

I cut taxes and bankrupted Texas government to the tune of billions in borrowed money.

I set the record for the most executions by any Governor in American history.

I became US President after losing the popular vote by over 500,000 votes with the help of major Enron money and my father's appointments to the Supreme Court.

Accomplishments as President:

I attacked and overtook two countries.

I spent the US surplus and effectively bankrupted the US Treasury.

I shattered the record for the largest annual deficit in US history.

I set an economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any 12-month period.

I set the all-time record for the biggest drop in the history of the US stock market.

My record for environmental issues is the least of my concerns.

I am the first president in US history to enter office with a criminal record.

I set the all-time record for most days on vacation in any one year period.

After taking-off the entire month of August, I then presided over the worst security failure in US history.

I am supporting development of a "Tactical Bunker Buster" nuke, a WMD.

I am getting our troops killed, under the lie of Sadam's procurement of Yellow Cake Nuke WMD components, then blaming the lie on our British friends.

I set the record for most campaign fundraising trips by a US president.

In my first year in office over 2-million Americans lost their jobs and that trend continues every month.

I set the all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12-month period.

I appointed more convicted criminals to administration than any president in US history.

I set the record for least amount of press conferences than any president since the advent of television.

I signed more laws and executive orders effectively amending or ignoring the Constitution than any president in history.

I presided over the biggest energy crisis in US history and refused to intervene when corruption involving the oil industry was revealed.

I presided over the highest gasoline prices in US history and refused to use national reserves as past presidents have done.

I have cut health care benefits for war veterans and support a cut in duty benefits for active duty troops and their families -- in war time.

I have set the all-time record for most people worldwide to simultaneously protest me in public venues (15 million people) shattering the record for protest against any person in the history of mankind.

I've dissolved more international treaties than any president in US history.

I've made my presidency the most secretive and unaccountable of any in US history.

I'm proud that the members of my cabinet are the richest of any administration in US history. My "poorest millionaire," Condoleeza Rice, has a Chevron oil tanker named after her.

I am the first president in US history to have almost all 50 states of the Union simultaneously suffer massive financial crisis.

I presided over the biggest corporate stock market fraud of any market in any country in history.

I am the first president in US history to order a preemptive attack and the military occupation of a sovereign nation, and I did so against the will of the United

Nations and the world community.

I created the largest government department bureaucracy in the history of the United States.

I set the all-time record for biggest annual budget spending increases, more than any president in history.

I am the first president in US history to have the United Nations remove the US from the Human Rights Commission.

I am the first president in US history to have the United Nations remove the US from the Elections Monitoring Board.

I removed more checks and balances, and have the least amount of congressional oversight than any presidential administration in US history.

I rendered the entire United Nations viewpoints irrelevant.

I withdrew the US from the World Court of Law.

I refused to allow inspectors access to US "prisoners of war" (detainees) and thereby have refused to abide by the Geneva Convention.

I am the first president in history to refuse United Nations election inspectors (during the 2002 US election).

I am the all-time US and world record-holder for receiving the most corporate campaign donations. My largest lifetime campaign contributor, and

one of my best friends, (Kenneth Lay, former CEO of Enron Corporation) presided over the largest corporate bankruptcy fraud in US history.

My political party used the Enron private jets and corporate attorneys to assure my success with the US Supreme Court during my election decision.

I have spent more money on polls and focus groups than any president in US history.

I garnered the most sympathy for the US after the World Trade Center attacks and less than a year later made the US the most resented country in the world, possibly the largest failure of diplomacy in World history.

I am actively working on a policy of "disengagement" creating the most hostile of Israel-Palestine relations in at least 30 years.

I am first president in history to have a majority of Europeans (71%) view my presidency as the biggest threat to world peace and security.

I am the first US president in history to have the people of South Korea more threatened by the US than by their immediate neighbor, North Korea.

I changed the US policy to allow convicted criminals to be awarded government contracts.

I set an all-time record for the number of administration appointees who violated US law by not selling their huge personal investments in corporations bidding for US contracts.

I failed to fulfill my pledge to capture Osama Bin Laden, dead or alive.

I failed to capture the anthrax killer who tried to murder the leaders of our country at the US Capitol Building. Even after 18 months I have no leads and no credible suspects.

In the past 18 months following the World Trade Center attack I have successfully prevented any public investigation into the biggest security failure in the history of the United States.

I removed more freedoms and civil liberties for Americans than any president in US history.

In a little over two years, I created the most divided country in decades, possibly the most divided since the Civil War.

I entered my office with the strongest economy in US history and have turned every single economic category downward -- all in less than two years.

All records of my tenure as Governor of Texas are now in my father's library, sealed, and unavailable for public view.

All records of SEC investigations into insider trading or bankrupt companies are sealed in secrecy and unavailable for public view.

    Psh, nothing new here. As TAK said, most of this stuff (I just skimmed the list) is just common knowledge if you stay current. Especially all the stuff he did before he was president, it's very widely known he was acomplete failure at just about everything he tried in what he would call his "youthful" period.

    I don't need to provide any facts to back anything up, I can make a long list of things Bush has done that is ether greatly exaggerated or not true at all, and then tell people to prove me otherwise refusing to give credible information form reliable sources to back up what my list says.

    I'll do a point by point, when I have some proof of every point.

    If you don't want people to take something seriously, being pompous about it generally doesn't help. Discrediting it through research does. Granted, the information isn't presented professionally, but that doesn't make it wrong.

    I have a difficulty understanding why someone would support such an obviously bad leader, and I can't think of 10 productive things he has done. I don't like Kerry either because he runs a "Im not bush" campaign. There are once again no canidates worth my vote.

    Zig: I meant 'counters' as in proof against it - either that, or if you're in support of the list, proof of it's factuality. Information tracking sites, news links, whatever - something other than "here's a list of stuff." Mind you, I'm definitely against Bush - it's just that having a simple list like this doesn't really make anyone think one way or another (if they bother to take things at face value - then again, we've seen what crap like Bowling for Columbine can do with 'facts'). ^^

    Out of curiosity, what reasons have persuaded you to be against Bush, or did you not like him since 2000?

    Also you obviously don't like this "he's not Bush" stuff, so are you voting for Kerry for another reason, or not at all?
