Anything in the news… Bush did it!
It really doesn’t take much in the way of news to out the irrational, seething hatred for our current administration in D.C.
Two days ago, a fire broke out in the Eisenhower Executive Office in the White House… and within minutes the talking heads on almost every major news network were sewing the seeds in the minds of their viewers that Dick Cheney may have started that fire… after all, that is HIS office.
Hell, in the Friday edition of the Tulsa World newspaper, our local moonbat cartoonist penned this little gem for us…
What sort of mental defect is plaguing this country? These past 6-7 years has been a downward spiral politically for everyone it seems… more than anything else I’ve seen personally. The 9/11 Truthers who will PHYSICALLY assault you for thinking 9/11 was NOT an inside job… news media that plants the thought of a conspiracy where none exists and politicians who feel the Constitution is nothing more than an old relic meant for tourists.
God I hope 2008 brings us all a refreshing political climate and not more of the same crap.

Are you insinuating that its completely unreasonable to suspect that our politicians may just be corrupt enough to not only engage in completely illegal and immoral acts, but then to also cover them up?
You seem to have this (naive) idea that suspicion of the current regime is automatically without merit.

Jason, it’s not that those in our government are incapable of cheating, stealing, breaking the law or covering it up, it’s that knee jerk reaction to ANYTHING that goes wrong in the country.
It’s logical to blame the government for failures like Katrina etc. as they WERE to blame for large portions of that mess…
It’s just getting to the point that ANYTHING and EVERYTHING is Bush’s fault and that record is getting worn thin.
I’ve never said it’s an unreasonable assumption, it just seems to be the ONLY assumption now.

Well… Sometimes, the most correct answer is the simplest one. Granted, not everything is a conspiracy…but c’mon.. You CAN’T tell me that it is unreasonable to suspect politicians (of either party) of being capable of such acts…which is your implicit assertion in this post.

I didn’t say it was unreasonable… it’s just a broken record that bad=Bush.

I think “bad=Bush” is a perfectly safe assumption. Can’t think of a single “good” thing I can attribute to him.
