If we win 2004 will this be the end of the Bush family in politics?

[coloradodem2005]

I hope so. But I think that once January 20, 2005 rolls around and we inagurate a new president that with the exception that Jeb still will have two more years as governor of Florida, but probably would not be re-elected, even if he can run. Nobody would want him as president. I just hope that this nightmare is close to over.

[bigwillq]

1. If * wins in Nov. (please no!!)

Then Jeb will run in 2008

[nostamj]

2. bush* DNA should be redacted from the gene pool

there has never been as evil a family in world history. never.

[Toronto Ron]

4. nostamj: Nice sig, but only 2/3 true:

It neglects to mention that not only did it lose the popular vote and was selected by his puppetmaster's hunting buddies, he also lost the electoral college vote.

[nostamj]

5. thanks Ron but

wanted to keep it short.

it's a design for a t-shirt and sticker, etc. in my online store.

i know he lost FL by a HUGE margin. 60,000 scrubbed voters will do that!

[Vitruvius]

26. Good idea; the Bu$hes believe in "eugenics" -- so let's see some eugenics

applied to them. The Bu$hes are criminals & useless parasites from Prescott onwards. As one Rethugnican judge said in the 1920s, upholding a forced sterilization law, "three generations of imbeciles is enough"; the same goes for the Bu$h crime family; Prescott, George Sr., George Jr -- three generations is ENOUGH!

Somehow, I think if "eugenics" were applied to the worst of the parasitic Rethugnican rich, instead of to the hard-working poor, the Rethugnican rich would think twice about being in favor if it...

3. I doubt it'll be that easy

I doubt it'll be that easy. These vermin will just skulk back to their spawning grounds and lay low for a couple of years while they produce new off-spring with names unfamiliar to the public.

Their kind will always be with us. That's why vigilance is so needed if they get the boot. Proceed with caution. These are venial vengeful bastards, in my opinion.

[Vitruvius]

8. And the only way to keep the Bu$h gang from coming back someday

is to try Bu$h, convict him, and send him to PRISON. Along with Poppy Bu$h, Jeb Bu$h, Cheney, Rummy, and as many Bu$h henchmen as possible.

Otherwise the Bu$h gang will spend the next 4 or 8 years trying to frame, impeach, and imprison whichever Democrat is president. Like they did with Clinton, after Clinton beat Poppy Bu$h.

The worst mistake Clinton made was deciding to not prosecute Poppy Bu$h for Iran-Contra and other scandals. If he had done so, Poppy would have been destroyed, and Dubya would never have run. Instead, Clinton was "forgiving" and "bipartisan" and let Poppy go. Because Clinton wanted to work with the Rethugs. And the Rethugs repaid Clinton's misplaced generosity by spending the next 8 years trying to put Clinton in prison, using one lie after another.

The problem is that ruling-class Rethugnican thugs are never punished; the ruling class doesn't imprison their own. This has GOT to change; otherwise, no Democrat will ever be safe in office.

And it might change -- if whichever Democrat becomes president realizes that if he doesn't put the Bu$h gang in prison for their crimes, the Bu$h gang will do their best to manufacture a phony case to put him into prison.

Vitruvius

P.S: If the gov't had had the guts to try Prescott Bu$h for his treasonous dealings with the Nazis, confiscate his ill-gotten gains, and and imprison or execute him, there would never have been a Bu$h presidential dynasty, and Dubya the cocaine addict would be doing 20 years as some bruiser's prison bitch.

[nostamj]

9. If the gov't had the guts to try Prescott Bu$h...

Sherman! Fire up the "WayBack" machine!!

[Vitruvius]

11. LOL! If only...

So I've added the second "had" that I somehow omitted; it now reads "if the gov't had had the guts to try Prescott Bu$h..."

Thanks for the correction.

Vitruvius

P.S: Along the same lines -- if only a retroactive abortion for Bu$h was possible...

[nostamj]

13. "a retroactive abortion"

as long as you're referring to Prescott.

and, whatever polluted stream Babs came from

[jansu]

19. BABS came from

the "royalty" of King George of England line.....it shows, don't it?

[Fescue4u]

6. Bush's have been beaten before

only to reappear and steal an election.

my Fear is that Bush will be relected and then in 2008 Jeb takes over the reins for another 8 years.

7. Aristocracy, Fortune, and the Politics of Deceit - House of Bush

Let's hope this is the end.

[LSparkle]

10. They've got a whole farm team waiting to run

Jeb, George P. (his son), then the twins ...

[Vitruvius]

12. And all with criminal / substance abuse problems...

By-the-way, you left out Jeb Bu$h's jailbird daughter, Noelle...

[Malva Zebrina]

14. I hope so

Never , ever, should another Bush be involved in politics in this country to the point where he/she assumes an important political office. No way should a one of them ever be allowed or elected to any post, including dog catcher.

The entire family is evil and fascist , crass liars, selfish and narcissistic.

Never ever let another Bush into office anywhere--and tell your children and your grandchildren--and tell them to tell their children and grandchildren.

The family is corrupt, evil, stupid and without credential

[ComerPerro]

15. No

The new Democratic President will be blamed for the Iraq mess, the "war" on terror, the overwhelming deficits, and the dismal economy (which, when a Rethug was in the White House, was "just terrific"). So, after actually asking the wealthiest Americans to pay their share and actually sacrafice something, he will be impeached. Whoever the VP is will be beaten down by the media and Republicans, and then Jeb will run and win in 2008.

[Vitruvius]

16. Again, the way to avoid this is to

try, convict, and imprison the Bu$h gang for their many crimes -- which created and/or exacerbated many of these problems.

If we get back in power and don't destroy the Bu$h gang for their crimes, they WILL come back to destroy us.

[Gman]

17. No---> 2 Words

Carlyle Group.

[Astarho]

18. Possibly

but it won't solve our problems.

The system behind Bush is still in place (unless the new Dem president takes it down, which I doubt). So even if the Bushes are driven out of the country on a rail, there will always be someone ready to take over and destroy our freedoms or lead us to war for their own enrichment. Who was it that said the price of freedom is eternal vigilence?

[Ardee]

28. at last a glimmer of truth

While it must be great fun to make a cartoonish and evil charicature of Bush it does nothing whatsoever but hide the truth that it is the system that is corrupt.

Under Clinton we saw the enactment of NAFTA and GATT, we saw people thrown off welfare without any job training or further assistance of any kind, etc.

With Bush gone back to Crawford the practice of lobbying (hey Billy Tauzin good luck with that new job,huh)that corrupts the process remains, the lack of campaign finance reform makes it so very easy to
dominate the election process with infusions of cash.

Whichever candidate wins the democratic nomination will most probably have voted for both the Iraqi invasion and the Patriot Act.So those who portray Bush as some evil source of all that is wrong with this nation are just being silly.

[Wapsie B]

20. What I'd like to see

is to have the twins marry someday and have offspring that will write a new chapter in family history. My wish is that they'll have kids who will right the wrongs of the previous generations of Bush's.

[Hekate]

21. No. Remember Nixon.

For some of us, it was hard to believe that shifty old cold warrior was actually dead, because we didn't get to see the stake driven through his heart. Nixon was politically resurrected several times, and when at death he was eulogized it was as an elder statesman.

W is no Richard Nixon -- Nixon had brains and cronies, but no family empire, and while W has no brains (or scrambled brains), he does have a family empire.

ON EDIT: I forgot to add that a shared trait is the desire to get even, to wreak vengeance on perceived enemies. The outing of Valerie Plame is a case in point -- in order to get back at her husband for going public with the truth about the Niger/yellow cake story, the Bush regime not only painted a bullseye on VP's back but on the backs of everyone she had ever dealt with overseas. After that, I do wonder what they threatened former Treasury Sec'y Paul O'Neill with that silenced him so speedily?

It's the BFEE that worries me. They are so connected, the way a Mafia family is connected, but in a respectable and old money sort of way. W may be out of office (please god please please please), but he will have appointed a slew of federal judges to the Supreme Court pipeline, and his cronies and family will retain influence.

Eternal vigilance is the price we pay...

22. No, JEBtm is set to run in 2008 regardless of what his

brother does...

Bank on it!

[PaDUer]

25. That's right.....then along comes

the nephew...remember his smug puss in the news all the time..

[fla nocount]

23. If Prescot being Hitlers' pimp banker,

didn't ruin their good name, what will?

[blindpig]

24. a return to Byzantine procedure would be in order..........

ALL of the family wealth should be confiscated by the gov and they should be exiled to Haiti. Removal of ears, nose and tongue of senior males optional.

[leesa]

27. No. They need to be prosecuted and villified as the criminal family they

are. If not they will use their money and influence to continue to start wars and arm the world and steal everything that's not nailed down.
