Three more reasons to recognize the end of Bush's presidency in my 100 Days Countdown:
#99. Project for the New American Century. This is the neo-conservative "think" tank which lobbied you, Mr. President, into war with Iraq...before you even read "My Pet Goat." The group, made up of Bush All Stars such as Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Perle, Bolton, Armitage, and Fox News’ William Kristol had a mission to bring “regime change” to Iraq and was funded by such American patriots as The Scaifes who spent millions of their millions making up shit about Bill Clinton. Frustrated President Clinton did not invade Iraq and take its oil, on their recommendation in 1998, the PNAC team infiltrated your administration and began laying the groundwork for your ill-fated mission. On September 20, 2001, with the nation still mourning its losses and understanding the depths of terrorism and al Qaeda, you received a letter from PNAC urging again that the US defense mechanisms be employed in Iraq. Sure, there were contracts to be gotten, and most of PNAC’s leadership would profit.
So was it a surprise that you began telling tales about Sadaam and mushroom clouds and yellow cake? Not really. You were surrounded by oilmen who had a lot of investment in defense contracts. Cynical? Maybe then. But not any more.
#98. Ari Fleisher. The first in a tragic stream of liars sent to the podium daily to spin the slow decline of approval. Ari’s greatest hits include:
A. Telling Americans that burning fossil fuel was part of the "blessed" American way of life. Driving big cars was fine; in fact, the President would not stand in their way. Nice going.
B. Allowing Jeff Gannon (or whatever his real, male-prostitute name was) press access – despite his consistently signing in to the WHITE HOUSE with a different name than on his credentials; despite his oft-lobbed softballs used to change the subject in a heated press room; and then pleading ignorant when even 15-year-old computer-lab students could Google Gannon’s bio within a minute of the truth breaking.
C. Spoiler Alert: You figure in two of the biggies that will land in the Top 3 coming next January!!!!
#97. Stupid Comments on the 7’s: I’ll highlight some of the things you said which embarrassed me most every ten spots from here down.
"And so, in my State of the—my State of the Union—or state—my speech to the nation, whatever you want to call it, speech to the nation—I asked Americans to give 4,000 years—4,000 hours over the next—the rest of your life—of service to America. That's what I asked—4,000 hours." —Bridgeport, Conn., April 9, 2002
