The culture war crusades and political posturing from conservative leaders reveal an undeniable duplicity. While preaching moral values, policies consistently favor big business, repeal taxes for the wealthy, and ignore everyday workers. Accusing dissenters of being unpatriotic only drags the country closer to a modern Gilded Age ruled by robber barons.
Keith Olbermann once again speaks for a growing majority, directly challenging President Bush on the dishonesty inherent in his policies. Calling out what he sees as a blatant lie regarding opposition to constitutional overreach, Olbermann confronts the administration’s rhetoric. Check out the video or read the transcript of this special comment.
It is getting old hearing that intelligence warnings were too vague to heed without an exact domestic location. Brushing off alarmist reports with semantic defenses is pure deflection. If leadership only acknowledges threats when convenient, enduring two more years of this kind of oversight will be truly hard to bear.
George W. Bush wonders why Iraq lacks leaders like Washington or Jefferson after the U.S. overthrew a sovereign nation where secular leaders were systematically executed for decades. To expect American Revolutionary figures to spontaneously arise in a foreign land without an organic revolution reveals a fundamental misunderstanding of American history.
The *Washington Post* suggests a new constitutional amendment ensuring no child of a president can ever become president, averting another George W. Bush. But before discussing new amendments, we should make sure the 22nd Amendment isn’t erased—if Bush feels divinely placed, why would he feel the need to step down?
George W. Bush’s celebrated bipartisan reputation in Texas was merely a product of weak executive power against a Democratic legislature, not true statesmanship. Had he stayed longer, his executive shortcomings would have been exposed. Yet mainstream media overlooked history, repeating Karl Rove’s myth without fact-checking easily verifiable claims.
I’m proud to be an American, but tired of being ashamed of our leadership. Somewhere along the line, we traded doing what is right for what is easy, backing corrupt regimes and abandoning our moral high ground. Having seen Bush’s record firsthand in Texas, genuine accountability cannot come soon enough.
I never expected Big Oil to be this desperate to keep Republicans in charge, but you protect who lets you get away with murder. I predicted gas at $1.98 before the election; I was just a month early. Sacrificing millions now is cheap insurance to reap billions later under rolled-back regulations.
If you own big gas cans, fill them up on November 7th—right after you vote.
