the only way bush and his henchmen could cram their agenda down the throats of mr.- average-voter-USA was/is to rule our nation as an quasi-oligarchy. in this, the plan that was hatched by those that make up bush's cabinet of conspirators succeeded, in the sense that they got things going all their way for what seemed to be an interminable six year run. in that historically short amount of time, the damage these guys have done to our nation is unprecedented, especially so as the consequences of their actions will far outlive their tenure at the helm.
all of this, in part to excersize the corporate mantra of producing maximim profits in the shortest amount of time (8 yr. projection) while leaving barren the back end of the projection whereby those that profited will not suffer any loss as they will have exited the deal (as planned) before the bottom fell out, leaving us, the average joe taxpayer to pay for decades the bills these guys ran up during their 8 yr. long orgy at the US treasury.
the little raiding party these crooks have pulled off at our expense will of course, be forgotten and will be executed time and time again to varying degree, as history has shown.
when will we ever learn.
bush will get what jugement he deserves, and he will be laughing his ass off as he showers himself with the riches he has gleaned off of the backs of the hapless taxpayers.
