This should be the top story everywhere right now. We have a sick man running this country. The media had better get their shit together real soon.

2. "Let them eat cake"
and "Go shopping."

Two statements, both by insensitive aristocrats, that belong together.

3. Yes, a sick man is running this country
But he's only a symptom of a more pervasive disease. Our entire government is infected with a dreaded lurgy, and the long term prognosis isn't good.

4. 'WE' can't go shopping!!! The middle class revenue is being outsourced......
Edited on Thu Dec-21-06 10:18 AM by Double T
to other nations and the cost of the bare essentials of everyday life continues to skyrocket. Who's got money to go shopping??? Somebody has got to pay for bush's illegitimate war, the cost of the war NOW escalating to $500 Billion Dollars, and 'WE' all know who will pay the price eventually. You, Mr. Prez, and your elite class have shot yourselves in the foot by destroying your best consumers, the middle class; how does an economy that is 75% consumer based survive??? If this is the kind of crap the rethugs provide for leaders, the Democrats should win elections for eternity. Going shopping would NEVER redirect 'OUR' attention away from YOUR heinous acts of inhumanity.

5. Those who could afford it have fled Iraq. The poor and middle are dying.
fits the right wing sub-agenda - the middle are moving more towards poor - furthering the divide of rich and poor. And it fits their other agenda of population control, especially with all the deaths of children and youth and their mothers.

Though the regime in this country takes unbelievable risks in short term policies for immediate enrichment and agenda progress - they also plan ahead as they believe they will always be in power - it's worked for 54 years.

Not only does this regime promote human population control and elimination, they promote animal, bird, and mammal species and green growth, clean water, and food production.

Truth hurts. The rich are more likely to make deals with other rich. The poor are for controlling, usng, abusing, and keeping ignorant.

6. Anyone remember he told us to "go shopping" after "9/11" and we thought
it was shocking then? To make that statement again while people are dying in Bush's war and occupation is really lowdown. He loves "poking it in our eye." He enjoys being an ass.
