Stupid President Tricks.

Forget "Stupid Pet Tricks", this is what Letterman should run instead.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He signed a bill providing for federal funds to be distributed to "faith based" organizations.

He expanded the number of federal crimes for which the death penalty can be given to a total of sixty.

He signed a bill outlawing gay marriages and took out ads on Christian radio stations touting his opposistion to any form of legal same sex couplings.

In a short span of time, he's been able to kick ten million people off welfare...that's ten million out of fourteen million recipients.

He promised states "bonus funds" if they can reduce their welfare numbers further, and made it easier to get these funds by not requiring the states to help the ex-welfare recipients find jobs.

He introduced a plan that would bar any assistance to teenage parents if they drop out of school or leave their parents home.

In spite of calls from Republican governers like George Ryan of Illinois to support a moratorium on capital punishment, he rejected all efforts to slow down the number of executions  even after it was revealed that there are dozens of people on death row who are innocent.

He has released funds for local communities to hire over a hundred thousand police officers and supports laws that that put people behind bars for life after committing three crimes....even if those crimes were for shoplifting or not paying for a pizza.

There are now more people without health insurance than when he took office.

He has refused to sign the international Land Mine Ban treaty already signed by 137 nations....but not by Iraq, Libya, North Korea, or the United States.

He has accelerated drilling for gas and oil on federal lands at a pace that matches, and in some areas exceeds, the production level during the Reagan regime.

Weaz, does this mean that you would reward teen-age child births? This might not be a good idea for society...

If I'm not mistaken, there is a lot of pressure to become as oil-independant as we can...   is this wrong???

Go on... it seems that you didn't finish your thought. Does your statement have some meaning beyond this?

Are you saying do the right thing or just go with the winner?

Even if the winner supports executing people, won't ban land mines, signed gag orders, prevents abortion funding, throws the poor out into the street, doubles the prison population, bombs countries killing innocent civilians (Afghanistan, Iraq), allows a few conglomerates to own most of the media (which were once split up among nearly 1000 companies), and continually calls for increases in the Pentagon budget?

Teddy Roosevelt broke up the large trusts.. corporations at the time.. Bush embraces them.. Keep in mind corporations are not people.

This is what you voted for Guntr?

Since Bush became president...
*The economy has gone to hell
*Millions of people have lost their jobs
*Millions of families lost half of their life savings
*Millions of about-to-retire seniors have had to keep working
*The stock market has gone down like Paula Jones
*We donated a spy plane from the future to China, and begged    their forgiveness
   saying we were "sorry," "very sorry," then "very, very sorry," for getting shot down.
   Meanwhile, President Bush wondered if those fighting men had Bibles...
*Enron fat cats were driving one of our submarines and murdered nine Japanese kids
*Bush declared a war against "terra," that will last until the Treasury is completely empty
*Bush said we have to invade Iraq and topple Saddam, but can't explain why
*You can't get on an airplane these days without a Federal reach-around
*The US Constitution says whatever Ashcroft and the alcoholic says it says
*There's a secret, shadow government in place that we're not allowed to ask about
*The press has turned into full-time Bush glorificators
*Clinton continues to be blamed for everything from Pearl Harbor to the Pompeii eruption.
*Democratic Senators keep falling out of the sky
*September 11th happened after Dim Son took another month-long vacation
*India and Pakistan almost got into a nuclear exchange
*North Korea is threatening us with nuclear blackmail
* Nukes are now the same as bullets or regular bombs.

So I see weazel was against our right to attack the Al-Qaeda stronghold of Taliban ruled Afghanistan after 911....  I guess you thought we should have bombed mossad and cia HQ...  Wait a second I know somebody else who thought of the same thing.

What adamned USA hating degenerate extremist you are... To think that we were wrong in defending ourselves after 911. What kind of unpatriotic traiterous shameful coward you are.

Weazel,

Whats your point with all this?  I cant find anything "wrong" with the "problems" you posted.

10Bears,

Are you stating that Bush is responsible for every problem in the world?

You two need to get a room and take turns playing the conservative.

The really funny thing is that weazle thinks he has conservatives stumped by stating things Bush has done that a lot agree with.

The posts are so hair-brained and without logic it's almost sad.

As for the possible war with Iraq.... maybe if Clinton didn't puss out when the inspectors were thrown out of Iraq, we wouldn't have the issue now. The ONLY reason inspectors are in Iraq now is because Bush got tough with them and the world knows that Bush is not F**king around   ( Unlike Clinton, pun intended)

So you think Bush is to blame for trying enforcing the Iraqi cease fire agreements or do you think we should just let Iraq break all those things they agreed to in order to stop the gulf war?

And just to confuse you further with a  fact: We are not at war with Iraq as of today and inspectors are there. A+ for Bush's stance .
