My jaw has been dropping often enough that I've got bruises. After getting over Frist's announcement that Bush has left the world a better place than when he oozed into office, I find that all the major failures of his administration were things, like his personal fortune, he inherited: or so says Fox News.
Bush inherited the 9/11 attack. Bush inherited a recession and the tough times on Wall Street, according to Martha MacCallum and Wendell Goler. Either they deserve the Nobel Prize for physics for having invented a Causality Reversal Time Machine -- or a week in the pillory. I'm sure they'll get neither.
Isn't it interesting how Bush can be given credit for turning around the recession they blame Clinton for, while all the while they claimed there was no recession, but that the "libs" were simply talking down the thriving economy? Interesting, of course is my polite way of combining words like fraud, deceit and lie.
Isn't it interesting that Bush chose to do nothing about terrorism, to essentially disband all investigations into terrorism and ignore direct warnings about terrorism; isn't it interesting that he did inherit the USS Cole attack and did essentially nothing; isn't it interesting that Fox can run it through the Roger Ailes Reversotron and blame this on Clinton, whom they attacked for attempting to retaliate against al Qaeda with cries of "wag the dog?" Interesting indeed.
Far more than interesting though, is the question of how and why Fox continues to produce propaganda for the small minority of people who still think W & C0. are victims. I think the answer may well be found by asking ourselves: whom do the lies benefit and who can afford to produce and distribute them?
Faux Noise exists because you can fool some of the people all of the time. Or to be more precise, a certain percentage of people WANTS to be fooled because they would rather believe in the foolishness than admit the horror.

ReplyDeleteYou never tire of the lies, do you?
"isn't it interesting that he did inherit the USS Cole attack and did essentially nothing"
What did you want him to do? Conveniently, you don't say. I've noticed that you throw around cheap insults but don't have the intellectual honesty to come out and give us your recommendations.
Tell me, do you also criticize President Clinton for not doing anything about Khobar Towers, the embassy bombings, the 1993 WTC attack, or the USS Cole?
This blog is nothing but a bunch of juvenile cheap shots.
You're welcome to pay more for your shots.
ReplyDeleteYou lost any chance at seeming objective when you picked your cute little 1950's handle and I don't owe you anything of any kind. Take you attitudes and platitudes and get out or I'll delete your ass.
The world seems to go round year after year, and century after century, even though there are so many opinions and interpretations. All I have to say (well, for the moment) is thank goodness that not everyone drank the Bush kool-aid, and thank goodness that free speech is still a a viable option.
ReplyDeleteObviously a language problem. I don't think inherit means what Faux thinks it means... Must be the reversatron.
