Look, you can post whatever you like, but it won’t change what the medication addition to medicare was. If was socialist in nature. Bush and others knew what was taking place in the lending institutions in 2001 or 2002. What did he and his majority in Congress do about it? They allowed socialism to rule the day as loans were given out to poor people who couldn’t possibly make the payments. And when it comes to our borders and taxpayers having to foot the bill for other nation’s poor, isn’t that socialistic?

Folks have plenty of legitimate reasons to be pissed off at Bush. And I happen to be one of them.

He didn’t cause this current mess, but he sure allowed the things that did cause it to continue. And what’s worse, he allowed himself to be painted with the charge that it happened on his ‘Conservative’ watch, thereby tarnishing Conservatism across the board. Barney Frank, Nancy Pelosi, Bill Clinton and Janet Reno are laughing their asses off at this one.

As I understand it, Fabian Socialism is the practice of creating a problem, so that you can step in and fix it, generally with massive Socialist fixes. Both parties contributed to this financial melt-down, and it’s a classic case of Fabian Socialism if there ever were one.

Bush had eight years as president of this nation, to bring his views into fruition. And this is what we are left with. What a disgrace...

If you are unable to determine which of those apply to Bush, my pointing them out to you won’t help.

But, think of redistrbution of wealth as in drug benefits, nationalizations he recently put forth.

Or don’t they count?
