Bush's latest WMD: Let's go to Mars!!!
As previously mentioned, President Bush uses Weapons of Mass Distraction (WMDs) whenever he thinks it will give him a leg up in his political fights with his rivals. The latest Distraction conjured by Bush's braintrust (which includes Karl Rove and Dick Cheney but not Bush) is to shoot for a Moon...

Bush/Republican WMDs: Weapons of Mass Distraction.
The mass media doesn't want to offend anyone, least of all the Bush administration. This might cost them some ad money if advertisers stop paying to sell their wares on various TV, radio or newspaper channels. And so what they do is they give us, the American people, the illusion of "news." Instead...

Bush scams are no joke!
The rightwing in this country seems to think that any scam that improves their lot is ok so long as you can sneak it past the ever gullible American public. Thus they get away with more than the public will ever know or the mass media will ever tell them. Take the Bush tax cuts for the rich for...

Deadly combination: Arrogance & Ignorance.
There are two things I will give the Bush administration. They are arrogant and ignorant beyond belief. There is no more deadly combination. If you are an individual it will certainly lead to grief. If you are the government of the most powerful nation in the history of the world it will cause...

Deadly myths.
All of us believe in myths whether we know it or not. Some of the myths can be positive or innocuous and some can be damaging and some can be downright deadly. Good parents often give their children a myth that they are beautiful, intelligent and talented people, whether the children are or not. Bad...

"Bait & Switch" and other Bush scams.
President Bush can rightly claim being the biggest and most successful "bait and switch" scammer in the history of the world. He promises much and often not only delivers little but delivers the opposite of what was expected. This can be seen in his monstrous "tax cuts" which he promoted as "giving...

Rape of the Innocents.
Strom Thurmond had sex with a sixteen year old, black housemaid when he was the twenty two year old, white son of a wealthy southern family. By any measure it was rape even though apologists for the late Senator hasten to mention that the statutory rape age in South Carolina was fourteen at the...

Bush, Hubris & Greek Tragedy.
For all his mediocrity, President George W. Bush has hubris by the quarts in his blood and fused in the marrow of his bone. Therein lies the tragedy. Hubris was the key human failing in the Greek tragedies. Achilles thought he was indestructable until the arrow from Paris pierced his heel. Oedipus...

Bush administration: Bribes are the Bottom Line!
Since 1997, the fossil fuel lobby has given the Republicans and particularly, George W. Bush, over $28 million in "campaign donations." During this same time they have given the Democrats less than half that. In the very first week after the Bush administration assumed power (thanks to voter hanky...

SOR is SOP with the GOP.
While America rejoices in the capture of the brutal tyrant Saddam and while President Bush and the GOP Congress bask in the glow of the American military's accomplishment, there are numerous other signals emanating from the White House that are not nearly as promising. The Standard Operating...
