What Has Bush Done For Us Lately?

Check out this article by Stephen Hass on Bush's non-accomplishments and scare tactics. Some snippets:

In short, Bush has done absolutely nothing for this country, other than to convince way too many suckers that they were in imminent danger from somebody or other. Somebody really scary. Somebody really scary who speaks Arabic. Bush's other memorable accomplishment was to destroy numerous international alliances that we spent decades building. He has also destroyed two nations (one of which - Iraq - had nothing at all to do with anything).

We decide our own fate every four years in this country. If you vote for Bush, keep your mouth shut when you see that we're still in Iraq for at least four more years, and thousands more of our nation's youth are still being slaughtered and maimed there. Keep your mouth shut about everywhere else Bush sends our nation's youth to die and be ripped apart - and he most definitely will sacrifice them elsewhere. Keep your mouth shut about your grandchildren who will still be paying for Bush's preemptive escapades around the globe.

More on how the War on Terror has not stopped terrorism from Green Left Weekly

The appalling end to the hostage crisis in Beslan, Russia on September 4, which left more than 300 dead, had people all over the world horrified. The killing of so many children helped neither the Chechens fighting the Russian occupation of their country, nor those of us fighting war and state-sponsored terrorism all over the world. The only people who were really aided by the slaughter were those pursuing the misnamed “war on terror”, in particular US President George Bush.

In the three years since two aeroplanes ploughed into the World Trade Center in New York, Bush's gang has finely honed the art of whipping up fear among the US population. As he heads into a tightly fought election campaign, it is certain that Bush will try to use the Russian school tragedy to convince more voters to support his endless “war on terror”, a key part of his election strategy.
