I wrote this a few years back, it also can be clearly applied to the Obama Administration.
F-you lame peoples of our capital. I give to you you:
George W. Bush –International Terrorist
I know this is a bad way to start things off but hell, terrorism is serious business. And as old G.W. says “The best way to keep the peace is to redefine war on our terms.” Ok, so you want the whole quote?
“But defending our nation is just the beginning of our challenge. My third goal is to take advantage of a tremendous opportunity given few nations in history to extend the current peace into the far realm of the future. A chance to project America's peaceful influence, not just across the world, but across the years.
This opportunity is created by a revolution in the technology of war. Power is increasingly defined, not by mass or size, but by mobility and swiftness. Influence is measured in information, safety is gained in stealth, and force is projected on the long arc of precision-guided weapons. This revolution perfectly matches the strengths of our country the skill of our people and the superiority of our technology. The best way to keep the peace is to redefine war on our terms.” G.W.Bush speaking at the Citadel-09/23/1999
Well, at least he told us in advance what he was going to do. In his own words “Project America’s peaceful influence…by a revolution in the technology of war”
Anyway, the argument, the point, is that in orchestrating an illegal war (invasion/occupation) against Iraq, in pooping on our civil liberties (The un-Patriot Act), and Goose-stepping across the constitution, old G.W. and his administration have revealed themselves for what they are, terrorists. Sure, power craving, money hungry but terrorists none the less.
Terrorism in the basic sense and as defined by wikipedia is "the systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion."
If we delve a little deeper into word meanings, Terror: Intense, overpowering fear. While we’re at it Tyranny: 1. Oppressive Power 2. Oppressive power exerted by a government 3. A government in which absolute power is vested in a single ruler
Imagine for a second, a world where our phones aren’t tapped and we’re not spied upon, where our government doesn’t hold prisoners without charge for years on end, where our government doesn’t invade and occupy other countries. Yes, it is hard to imagine.
However, this is our country. Our country, our congress, who have backed down from the will of this administration and let him do whatever he wanted. Why? Because if you don’t support Bush, his tactics, his policies then you are an enemy of freedom, you are unpatriotic and subject to his will.
At this point I could draw easy comparison’s to another George, that is King George III, the very one America started a revolutionary war with. While we’re here, let us revisit and examine the historical reasons we started that war.
Below as listed, some of the indictments against King George III as located in the Declaration of Independence:
1. He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness of his invasions on the rights of the people. - I present for your enjoyment “Presidential Directives” over which congress is unwilling or unable to challenge.
2. He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures. – Gift number two from me to you, PMC – private military company, you know like Blackwater the worlds biggest private army – currently not accountable to any governing body – currently estimated at 30,000 strong here in our land - and good friend to our huggable, lovable vice president Dick Chenny.
3. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
(Check into foreign diplomacy)
a. For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
b. For depriving us in many cases, of the benefit of Trial by Jury: (unlucky if your considered a terrorist, even if your not)
c. For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offencesWhat was that Geneva convention thing about again?)
(Declaration of What?)
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
Well, you may be thinking, ok G.W. reminds me of a monarch of despotism, or an imperial ruler, a tyrant dictator but surely not a terrorist.
Well maybe he is those things to us, but he is also a terrorist. He is a terrorist for creating a mindset of fear in this country to forward his political-economical agenda. He is a terrorist for destabilizing all of the Middle East – (Weapons of mass destruction, I mean peace and freedom, I mean oil. Hurrah). He is a terrorist of the Constitution of the United States.
What would Jefferson say now? Wait, I can answer that:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed…
But when a long train of abuses and usurpation's, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
I now end with some words from G.W. to you:
I just want you to know that, when we talk about war, we're really talking about peace. –GW
I am mindful not only of preserving executive powers for myself, but for predecessors as well. -GW
A dictatorship would be a heck of a lot easier, there's no question about it. -GW
