LET'S RE-ELECT BUSH(very long)

[Baltimore Ron]

"Set all-time record for biggest drop in the history of the stock market."

Considering that the market peaked several months before Bush's election, and even longer before implementation of any Bush policies, can you explain how he is responsible for the drop?

"Spent the surplus and bankrupted the treasury."

"Shattered record for biggest annual deficit in history."

Historical analysis shows that the lion's share of the drop in federal tax receipts was due to the drying up of capital gains taxes and taxes on exercised stock options - largely due to the drop in the stock market. See above.

"Presided over the biggest corporate stock market fraud of any market in any country in the history of the world."

The fraud began long before Bush took office and only came to light during his early days in office. Are you saying that Lay, Quattrone, etc. knew Bush would eventually become president and felt safe engaging in their misdeeds years in advance?

"Rendered the entire United Nations irrelevant."

I would consider this a feature, not a bug. Or, at minimum, a reflection of an existing reality rather than a result of conscious action on Bush's part.

"Attacked and took over two countries."

Leaving aside the issue of Iraq, over which reasonable people can disagree, are you forgetting 9/11? Or would the proper response have been to bomb another aspirin factory?
