George W. Bush Consistent In His Idiocy

Ho Chi Minh City, Viet Nam - Reading the news from a variety of sources around the world does not present a pretty picture of events in the United States. Since George W. Bush's illegal take over of the White House in 2000, along with the help of the other criminals, the state of the nation has rapidly deteriorated. Incapable of correctly reading the sympathy of the world for the US after September 11, 2001, he rapidly pitched the world into a terrorist mode. After his resolute failures as a human being and alleged president, he abandoned Afghanistan, which has resorted to becoming the world's leading producer of opium and the warlords have assisted in concealing Osama bin Laden.

George W. Bush and his criminals then began a campaign of deceiving the American public and the world in lying about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and connections to al Queda. I submit that his personal vendetta against Saddam Hussein resulted not only in Iraq falling towards a civil war, but the lives of the more than 2,000 soldiers, hostages and the estimated tens of thousands of Iraqi lives (more recently the bombing of a house resulting in innocent lives being taken) lies directly on George W. Bush's head. He is alone responsible for al the bloodshed in Iraq. It is no wonder why so many in the world see GWB as the leading cause of hostilities in the world today and the World's Most Dangerous Person.

He has eroded civil rights in the US, ordered secret spying of US citizens in direct violation to the United States Constitution, which he LIED about protecting when he took the oath of presidency. (Did anyone check to see if his fingers were crossed?) He has given Donald Rumsfeld carte blanche with the Department of Defense and has allowed the Special Operations Command (SOCOM) to operate out of embassies around the world, which emasculates the CIA. SOCOM is comprised of 1 to 3 or more military individuals whose sole mission is to try and ferret out terrorists in foreign countries by kidnapping and authorized to commit murder.

The United States, once seen as a moral leader in the world, now condones and conducts terror, illegal wiretapping and searches against US citizens, kidnapping around the world and torture. The US has called the "kettle black" when reproaching China, Viet Nam and other nations on their human rights abuses while many US citizens await execution in the United States and continues to operate Guantanamo as a prison. As governor of Texas, GWB broke the record for state executions.

Now, the US is denigrating the United Nations Human Rights Council and was one of two nations voting in opposition. The US, which once was a signator to the International Crimes Commission, had its signature/endorsement pulled by GWB after taking office, citing he was concerned the ICC would punish US soldiers for war crimes. Hey George! Don't condone or authorize war crimes in the first place (Abu Ghraib rings a bell).

I would like to say "(expletive deleted) Bush!" but the hesitation resides in that fact that SOCOM could always come knocking at my door here in Ho Chi Minh City. Oddly, I feel more safe, though, and feel I have more freedoms here as a foreigner in Viet Nam than I do as a citizen in the United States.

I still wonder why the US population still puts up with Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Bolton and the high crimes and treasons they commit. With his popularity at an all time low, Bush needs to be removed from office. Who would a likely replacement be? Not Cheney, not "Parrot" Rice, so you're stuck with really nobody. Sadly, the US is reverting to the dark ages of ignorance with South Dakota passing the abortion ban, Mississippi considering it and Bush's administration committing human rights abuses and crimes against humanity around the world. In addition, the sabres are rattling at Iran and the White House is talking again about pre-emptive strikes. Wasn't Iraq a big-enough mistake?

Privately, I will still say "(expletive deleted) Bush!" It feels good, but all I hear from De Lay, Abramhoff, Frist and the spineless Democrats is "Baaaaa, Baaaa" as they're led up to the slaughterhouse by the Judas Goat. Good luck, America!
