A Clear Message From George Bush
Guest Opinion From Angie Pratt
You have to give credit to the Bush administration. Their message is clear. People not only understand it they, believe
it. The only problem is it is completely untrue.
The words coming out of the Bush administration are a study in bait and switch. They are the pinnacle of "say one thing
and do another."
Yet.. People still don't see it.
Why?
Because they don't want to see it. People are voting for what they think George Bush stands for - not what he actually
stands for.
Because The Bush administration stays on topic no matter what happens - no matter what the facts.
Because no one challenges the assertions. Bush makes a statement and no one stands up and say "Hey! Mr. President you
are wrong!"
Because the Bush administration understands the KISS principal. Something John Kerry doesn't.
The past 3 and a half years have explained to me how Hitler came to power in Germany. Previously I naively was
mindboggled by how it was that the good, sane citizens of Germany came to be led around the nose by a nazi. The recipe
is actually fairly simple. The ingredients are fear, pejorative statements, secrecy, lies, a bought press and economic
uncertainty. The directions are easy: stir.
The Bush administration has the poor and middle class thinking they are getting tax relief when it is Bush' peers who
are actually getting the lion's share.
The Bush administration has people believing that there is no global warming.
The Bush administration has people believing that budget deficits don't matter.
The Bush administration has people believing that "strong" decisions as opposed to good decisions are what are
important.
The Bush administration has people believing that outsourcing American jobs is good
The Bush administration has people believing that letting illegal aliens work in the United States is good.
The Bush administration has people believing that it good to have a law that says that the government CAN NOT request
competitive contracts on drugs for seniors or the poor.
The Bush administration has people believing that it's OK to ignore the Geneva Convention.
The Bush administration has people believing that the fact that there were no Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq should
not reflect on their decision making.
The Bush administration has people believing that people standing up for what they believe in is unpatriotic.
The Bush administration has people believing that it's OK to have amendments to the constitution that take away people's
rights instead of protecting them.
Honestly.. I don't know what scares me more; The bush administration or the people who believe what the Bush
administration tells them.
