Bush is like one unnatural crisis after the other. These are the

[The Backlash Cometh]

dividends of a bad investment.

Reading DU today is like seeing the dividends of one bad investment after another. A military insider claims we lost the Iraq momentum in July 2003; Another report says that the GAO found EPA reports were fudged so that a Bush agenda would go thru; Bush appoints an anti-UN conservative to represent us at the UN. I'm sure Big Dawg isn't the only American grabbing his chest today.

Jeeesus! Is there no end to this conservative nightmare! Just how bad is Bush going to lead us before the rest of America gets a wake-up call?

1. You keep forgetting...

Bush people get their news from Fox.It is all "We Love Bush" all the time. So how will America wake up if they use a rigged alarm clock that never goes off?

[The Backlash Cometh]

6. What news do they have to get before they realize Fox is wrong?

The Chinese coming to repossess their house with Jim Baker's approval?

2. Could it be

that Bush* and company are counting on "scandal fatigue" to keep themselves in office? Think about it for a second. It would be easy if America's attention were focused on one, single scandal. We could investigate it, pursue it and prosecute it. But what if it's a scandal a day? Too much information to gather. Too much energy required to jump from one scandal to another. I've got to believe this is a deliberate, orchestrated information management technique being practiced from inside the WH....probably Andrew Card's handy work.....

7. No. This is not the problem. The problem is that the average American

isn't even aware of these scandals. So how can they reach a state of fatigue?

3. They come to resemble Goering, Ribbontrop, Goebbels, and a host

of others more and more each day. I am mesmerized by this train wreck.

8. What scares me more is that white male Americans identify with them.

[amber dog democrat]

11. That was true in 1934 too.

This was especially so with the ruling white American elite. Not much has changed.

5. Oh, and he's whipping up a civil war in Lebanon

More money for the Carlyle Group. Nice adjunct to the neverending war in IraqNam

[The Backlash Cometh]

9. Is anyone in America even grasping Lebanon?

I don't really think so. I think most of them are stunned into silence that the facts are all in that we invaded Iraq wrongly, and no one in authority seems to be doing a damn thing about withdrawing our soldiers.

10. This mis-Administration is a coup d'etat waiting to happen.
