President
Bush is
stinking
up the
place on
the way
out.

The masterful way that Bush can keep a straight face and lie like a dog is what corporate America saw in him when they selected him to rise from Governor of Texas to be President. This man is good at smiling and picking your pockets at the same time. Even now, in spite of his less than 25% approval rating and even though he is on his way out, President Bush is still doing his thing. Bush is now using that same innocently stupid looking face to make like he is cooperating with Obama while he is stinking up the place. The corporate media, CNN, Fox, ABC, CBS, CNBC, NBC, and all the rest are acting like they believe him even though they know better. The media outlets are putting out stories of "how gracious President Bush is towards Obama;" how President Bush is doing everything he can to make sure that there is a smooth transition;" and "how everyone is keeping President Elect Obama fully informed." The truth is far different and more importantly the media knows better. If we and the media all know what a liar the Bush Administration has been about the war, about firing of U.S. Attorneys, and about many other things, why are these media outlets acting like he is telling the truth now.
♣President Bush is stinking up the place in many foreign countries as well to try to force President Elect Obama to get bogged down with military matters of cooperate America’s choice. I ask you, do you believe for a minute that some renegade group of folk off the coast of Somalia are hijacking ship without CIA or someone similar organization's help? This could be the groundwork to start military actions in Africa. The hope Bush and his folk is that military actions around the world will keep money going to arms manufacturers and security forces like Black Water. Black Water, as you know, is an organization of mercenaries that get no-bid contracts to provide security at five times the cost of the U.S. military. Black Water also ships illegal arms and launders money that probably ends up back in politicians pockets. Bush and his Republicans are trying to get the "Don't ask don't tell" controversy going again just to bog Obama down with the more inconsequential matters. Bush is entering into long term contracts with governments around the world in spite of the fact that Obama has said he wants to get out of some of these places. Bush is forcing the Iraqi Government and other puppet governments to agree to allow US troops to stay in their countries for many years to come. Some of these contracts are intended to and will keep President Obama from readily installing new policies. Obama is not helping himself by some of the folk he has selected to advise him.
♣President Bush is stinking up the place here at home big-time. He is transferring a lot of his hate and fear mongering appointees into civil service jobs so that President Elect Obama will not be able to remove them. Further, these folk will be operating just below President Obama's appointees to keep President Obama from effecting "change" as easily as he might have if he had all of the agencies on the same page.
♣President Bush is stinking up the place by raiding the treasury to pay out money to abstinence only and anti choice organizations. Three million dollars was sent into Columbia South Carolina for an abstinence advocacy group even though Columbia does not have enough money to keep its public bus service going. He is putting restriction on monies going to other organizations that do not suit him. More importantly is the Bush intent to leave Obama with too little money for Obama to do the things he promised in his campaign.
♣Bush got the 700 Billion dollars under false pretenses so that he could pay off all of his Wall Street cronies who supported him. The deal was apparently passed with Democratic help by agreeing to only take half and leave the other half for Democrats in 2009. Some of this money will certainly come back to Bush as "donations to build the Bush Library in Texas.
♣President Bush is stinking up the place in the Congress and Senate by refusing to loan 25 billion dollars to the auto industry. This is the beginning of the Bush and the Republicans anti-organized labor fight that will haut the Obama Administration. Bush and the Republican Party fully support 700 billion dollars to Wall Street where more than 25 billion dollars in executive bonuses have been paid out of taxpayer money. Yet, they do not want to loan the auto industry 25 billion because these 3 million workers and saved jobs are not as important. One caveat, if Bush and the Republican Party could force the auto industry to shed the union labor, the Republicans would be happy.
♣To end
this on a
brighter
note,
President
Obama will
be, if he
is not too
much of a
"Mr. Nice
Guy," able
to reverse
a lot of
the Bush
Executive
Orders.
President
Obama will
also be
able to
reverse
some of
these
stinking
last
minutes
regulations
that
President
Bush is
putting
into EPA,
NIH, HUD,
and other
agencies
but all of
this is
time
consuming.
Many of
the Bush
cronies
will have
dumped
their
sludge in
our
drinking
water,
denied
some
worker's
rights,
sold some
public
land, and
done other
things
that will
not be
reversible.
Let us
hope that
the
corporate
media and
others who
are afraid
to speak
out now
will
investigate
and tell
the
American
people the
truth
about
these last
minute
actions by
Bush after
he leaves
office. If
this
happens we
can begin
to hope to
get rid of
more of
the fear
and hate
mongers in
the next
elections.
The only
thing that
is better
than hope
is action.
We must
stay
active,
stay
informed,
and stop
letting
this
corporate
media feed
us the
crack of
hate and
division.
We have to
email,
call, and
write CNN,
Fox, ABC,
NBC, and
all the
rest to
let the
propaganda
spewing
corporate
owned
media know
that we do
not
believe
them
anymore.
Let them
know we
want our
country
back NOW!
Peace, Cjw
