Tell me what has bush done to protect americans....
he has said that he sees no loop holes in the defense of this country. I believe that democrats would have had a more strategic plan to protect us after 911. I cannot believe americans can still believe because they take off shoes and get rid of all liquids before boarding airplanes that they are safe. The open borders are big holes in their so called plan. There is more than one way for a terrorists to attack and a airplane isn't the only way that I believe they would attack.

Bush is at it again running around doing photo-ops and pretending that he is some big man that everyone looks up to for protection. Those who make excuses for him say we will complain if he does nothing and if he does something. The problem with the something is that he seems to be busy spying on us (americans0 while everyone else is coming in this country from every other direction. All presidents have been spying for years but he is going to far, it is to the point that you could be blamed just because they don't like you or your looks.

15. I think something in the neighborhood of $3.8 trillion in tax cuts...
...since taking office in Jan 2001, turning over a 10 year projected budget surplus which the Clinton administration left of $5.6 trillion to an endless series of budget defects as far as the eye can see which this fiscal year will hit close to $1.0 trillion, looting social security of virtually all of its surplus and running up war debts of several trillion dollars as well. Oh, I almost forgot, the federal debt under Bush has loomed to over $9.0 trillion, but he has used virtually all of social security surpluses to pay for spending not covered by the additional debt so the U.S. now sands on the verge of bankruptcy. Does that make you feel more secure?

17. No. It makes him and his rich buddies and friends feel secure...
and they will hug and hold on to their money if their is an attack, they care more about the money than their lives or their families evidently.

We have to stay here and be afraid. He also wants to straighten us Dems out. Someday, * dreams, we will ALL be pukes. We will look up to the shrub king and say 'Fool the pet goat once, roast the foolish pig twice.' :crazy:

9. They keep saying that the dems don't have a plan...
when they know damn well, when they have meetings about what is going on they keep the dems out and turn down every idea they give or they take their ideas and use them.

14. Corporate american citizens
"Do not feel threatened or afraid, you will outlive the puny workers
that momentarily grace your sacred halls. Corporate americans, this day is a fine
day ever shining forth whence all persons on earth hear of your products and buy
your new and improved violent war to the bottom. Corporate citizens should be
all diversifying in to military these days to take advantage of the prosperity
that war provides the citizen. Vote by purchasing our airwaves for your corporate
denizens, but hardly do we call them voters anymore, the fanciful twits, ensconced in
their multi-TV universe of postmodern destruxicon, darth vader knows tomorrow is
another day, bought paid and sold for, it is the corporate way."
