BUSHCO: LET THE FAITH-BASED VET TAKE CARE OF THE BITCHES
>
If you're very wealthy (like bringing in over $1,000,000 per year) and you're a white Christian male and you generally conform to societal norms and you don't care about abstract things like the "future of the world" or "other people" or stuff like that, right-wing parties (like the Republicans) are probably not a terrible idea for you. But I can't count the numbers of times I've pondered how minorities identify with right-wing parties-- or is it only self-loathers with severe psychological issues in this group? And, yes, there were Jews and there were gays who voted for Hitler in the early 30's. And yes, there are American Jews and gays and African-Americans, and Latinos who vote Republican and supported Bush in 2000 and even in 2004 after he had proven what many people feared before the first disastrous term. And even though he's committed to ending women's right to choice and even though he started a discretionary war, almost half the female voters in the country voted for him.
Friday the Bush Regime showed how they feel about women-- at least about non-rich women. They sent out a press release saying that they had appointed Norris Anderson to be the Acting Director for the Office of Women's Health to fill the position that was vacated when Susan Wood recently quit to protest Bush's ideology-over-science policies. Forget for a moment that they probably should have figured a woman is better suited for this position. Much worse than Anderson's gender are his credentials. Although best known as a creationist loon whose life's mission is to make sure school text books teach religion instead of science, Anderson does have some medical expertise-- as a veterinarian!
The former director of an Elmer Gantry type outfit calling itself Cornerstone "Ministries," Anderson is as ill-suited to be running the Office of Women's Health as Michael Brown was to head FEMA. Bush has turned real jobs that have real consequences on real people's lives (though not rich Republican's lives) into dumping grounds for incompetent misfits, drinking buddies, religionist fanatics, yes-men and self-serving crooks.
Salon points out that soon after a shit-storm broke lose about this incompetent ideologue getting the appointment the FDA went into overdrive re-writing history. Not only did they put out a release claiming Theresa A. Toigo had been made the acting director, they erased any trace of the release and the website mentions of the religionist veterinarian! Several progressive organizations have captured the original statements, which have now all been deleted or changed! I mean could it be MORE 1984?

Hey, let's not be too quick to judge here. These people could be on to something. If they could make all trace of the veterinarian disappear, isn't it possible that they could make all trace of the Bush administration disappear?
Well, maybe not ALL trace--there's still the matter of the worldful of mayhem and disaster caused or enhanced by the Bush crowd, which I doubt can be erased by any amount of tampering with the paper trail. But at least those problems would be passed on to people prepared to attempt to deal with them, to begin the massive cleanup effort that will be required whenever the Post-Bush Era finally begins.

CODE RED!!!
The time in this country has come.
The country has split equally. The south has indeed risen again. The discrimination against blacks, women and gays have again reached levels unseen since the post civil-war era until near 1950. Where are the Jews in this mix? Many are supporting these causes.
You are reading this in shock. How could anyone make such blasphemous proclamations?
The Republicans have used every ounce of ammunition in their war chest. They have used war to bring patriotic Americans together, they have used Anti-gay marriage amendments to their advantage, they are using their Anti-Abortion procedures against women and women's rights groups. They have even engineered a way in Georgia to discriminate against blacks and the poor to keep them from voting. They have to have a state issued ID card or driver's license to vote. Having an ID card would not normally be a problem if the state was going out if its way to run ad after ad on TV and Radio and in the Newspapers to PROMOTE registration but it is failing miserably. There are no ads, no talk and no push to get people to understand the new law. That is purely FRAUD on the part of public officials and intentional denial of Civil Rights and Voters Rights. In the US , the Voter Rights act is up for renewal and that too is not being talked about. In fact, its being mostly overlooked as a non-issue.
Ralph Reed of the Christian Coalition is in control of Georgia, attempting to run for Lieutenant Governor while his arch duo Sadie Fields, a dynamic side-kick whose daughter is a gay American living with a child outside of the state of Georgia, is a self-hating anti-gay, rabid Republican with a destiny that involves bashing gays and even her own daughter to the point of no return. She is indeed doing what Jesus would do. Supporting war, discriminating against women, blacks and gays and using her political power and self-hate to drive her passion for destruction of people's rights.
If that's not the worst of the worst, in addition to your Statements H, The Stolen Electoral process is even MORE ANTI-AMERICAN!
The Republicans just keep stealing American from us!!
Enjoy the Hate filled, New Racist South. The Republican Party; The KKK under new Management.
In God, We Trust.
