1) The national debt under Bush has increased so much that the average American's share of the national debt will be an amazing $24,000--compared to $500 when he first came into office. 2) Under Bush Jr., there are 43,000,000 Americans without any form of health insurance. 3) Responsible for an unemployment rate of 6%. Now there are 9,000,000 Americans out of work, 3.3 million more then when he came in. 4) He cut healthcare benefits for war veterans. 5) Bush Jr. deserted his unit during Vietnam and was reportedly AWOL for over a year from his assigned unit, the Texas Air National Guard, or as its called within the military, "The Champagne Unit". 6) Despite a 13% unemployment rate among those aged 16-24, Bush Jr proposed to eliminate youth opportunity grants--a program that provides job training to the nations youth. A $225 million program in 2002 has been cut to pay for this little Iraq war. 7) He cut fudning for 375,000 low income college students and reduced pell grant amounts such a severe degree that it effectively caused 84,000 students to no longer be eligable for them. 8) Withdrew from the International Criminal Court. 9) First president in US history to refuse UN's Election Inspectors. 10) All-time US (and world) record holder for corporate campaign donations. 11) The Bush administration had twice as many FBI agents fighting the drug war then fighting terrorism before 9/11. Even after 9/11, more then 2,000 FBI agents are wasting their time assigned to the war on drugs. 12) His proposed "Free Trade" agreements would result in the loss of US jobs to foreign markets and the exploitation of third world workers. 13) John Ashcroft...god he's an asshole. 14) He has taken 11 official executive actions to undermine reproductive rights...how long will it be before a woman is stripped of her right to choose? 15) Failed to fulfill the pledge to get Osama Bin Laden "Dead or Alive". 16) Wasted federal resources on a PR trip to Baghdad where he stages a Thanksgiving meal at 6 AM with the troops that were screened based on their political affiliation. And the turkey...it was a prop. Weak dude, weak. 17) His refusal to fire-or even reprimand Lt. General Jerry "Our God is bigger then your God" Boykin. Maybe its because he said of the president "Bush was not elected by a majority of the voters in the US. He was appointed by God. He's in the White House because God put him there." 18) After sending soldiers off to die in an unjust, and unprovoked war, he still has yet to attend any of the soldiers funerals. 19) His shameless nepotism for the rich and powerful. 20) He has made repeated attempts to legalize drilling in the national wildlife refuge. 21) Bush is the first president to enter office with a criminal record. 22) Bush has set the all-time record for most people worldwide to simultaneously protest a leader (10,000,000 people), shattering the record for protests against any person in the history of mankind. 23) He slashed fudning to the violence against women act. 24) He has invaded an occupied two countries at a continuing cost of $1 billion a week. 25) He appointed Charles Pickering, a notorious segregationist from Mississippi, as a federal judge and suspiciously did so on Martin Luther King Jr day. 26) Bush has spent over $100,000,000 on Iraq, leaving the states of face the largest budget crisis in decades and forced to cut off public services; now with the federal deficit at a new high Bush wants to award more tax breaks to the wealthy. 27) Under new Bush legislation (the "clear skies initiative), power plants are allowed to emit triple the amount of highly-toxic mercury into the environment. 28) Bush failed to protect 3 million acres of the Tongass National Forest from logging. The Tongass has the highest concentration of bald eagles on earth. 29) He is on pace to have taken more vacation then any president in history, including a 28-day vacation right before 9/11. He's taken 6 months of vacation in total. Do you know ANYONE who gets 6 months of vacation!? 30) He pulled out of the Kyoto agreement which had been agreed upon by 178 other countries. 31) Bush is endorsed by fundamentalist Pat Robertson who claims that God told him Bush would win re-election and that "It doesnt make a difference what Bush does because God is blessing him." Bush keeps good company, but keep in mind Robertson was also the dumbass who blamed 9/11 attacks on gays and suggested that we "nuke" the state department. 32) He set the record for the most executions by any governor in American history, 152 in total. Some of whom were MENTALLY DISABLED. 33) He repeatedly stalled the public investigation into 9/11. 34) Bush declined to fully fund the AIDS initiative after promising he would. The final cuts to the program were over $2 billion. 35) He STILL suggests that homosexuals are sinners and is pushing for legislation that would forbid gay partnerships and deny fundamental civil rights on a national and social level. 36) Choked on a pretzel and nearly lost his life while seated in front of a TV. I know that this is a dumb reason to hate the guy, but then again...IT WAS A PRETZEL!!!! Some presidents die because they're shot at, this dumbass dies because of death by Better Made!? 37) Has gone to great lengths to prevent investigations of his friends at Enron and Halliburton. 38) Bush has set the record for the fewest amount of press conferences since the advent of the TV. 39) Responsible for a $521 billion budget defecit-less then 4 years after being GIVEN a $200 billion SUPRLUS!! 40) He dropped his dog on its head...FOUR TIMES!! I know that I shouldn't be using this has a soapbox for my political beliefs, but...I mean, come on! No one can honestly look at that stuff and come up with excuses for every moronic thing that the ManSemian Candidate has done! I mean the stuff he's done to young people, the environment, international debate towards the United States...it's a joke! If this guy gets re-elected, I'll be spending a little more free time in Canada. Anyway, I'm outta here.
