POLITICS - Clear and Present Danger

"George W. Bush Has Hurt the United States More Than Bin Laden Ever Could Have." by by David Zephyr, Democratic Underground

The most devastating weapon of mass destruction ever employed against the people of the United States of America has been George W. Bush. No enemy, foreign or domestic, has ever hurt our fair country more than this single man. None. Not ever.

1.) Our once powerful military is now just a ruined and broken shadow of what it once was. Our soldiers and Marines are worn out and have been abused. Our military hardware and weapons have been depleted and we are vulnerable now as never before in over 200 years. Osama bin Laden didn't do that to America. George W. Bush did!

2.) Our banking system, once the underpinning of the entire world, is about to possibly be nationalized as it collapses before our very eyes. Osama bin Laden didn't do that to America. George W. Bush did!

3.) Our collective business community, large and small, is in peril from coast to coast as credit is unavailable and as they have been forced to compete against 23 cent/hour slave labor in China. Osama bin Laden didn't do that to America. George W. Bush did!

4.) Our equity markets are in a free fall of panic with no bottom in sight. Osama bin Laden only took out two towers on Wall Street while George W. Bush has just about taken down all of Wall Street.

5.) We lost the City of New Orleans and watched our fellow citizens drowning, dying of thirst and starving to death in front of our eyes. We watched them being prohibited from leaving by force. And he grinned, partied and ate cake with John McCain and played air guitar in San Diego as our fellow Americans perished. Osama bin Laden did not do that to the people of New Orleans. George W. Bush did.

6.) Our national integrity is gone and the trust America had once around the world for centuries is gone. Our national government is a joke. Osama bin Laden did not do that to America. George W. Bush did.

7.) Our personal savings and retirement investments are nearly gone now leaving tens of millions of older Americans in dire straights and in fear for their very futures. Osama bin Laden didn't do that to America. George W. Bush did!

8.) Our manufacturing base, the bedrock of our nation, is 1/10th of what it once was. Osama bin Laden didn't do that to America. George W. Bush did!

9.) There are now millions of Americans being evicted from their homes. Millions of children are watching mommy and daddy being forced to live in their cars, tent cities and homeless shelters. Osama bin Laden didn't do that to America. George W. Bush did!

10.) The first biological attack on American soil against our own people did not come from Osama bin Laden, but from the government run by George W. Bush.

11.) Our constitutional form of government, our very civil liberties, our habeas corpus rights, our right to privacy have been assaulted and undermined and stripped away from us. Osama bin Laden didn't do that to America. George W. Bush did!

12.) Our precious, but fragile democracy, our right to free elections, our right to count the votes and to verify the outcome of elections is a joke now. Osama bin Laden didn't do that to America. George W. Bush did!

George W. Bush has been a greater enemy to the American people than anyone in modern times and no single individual has ever hurt our beloved country more than this man.

Amen
