GEORGE BUSH:
BIG BROTHER, BIG SPENDER, ENDANGERER OF
AMERICAN LIVES
06/27/2004 01:00 PM
It seems hardly a week goes by
without another astounding revelation of the Bush Regime's agenda to
intervene without limit into the lives of Americans, and everyone in
the world, to further its right-wing, psychopathic agenda. Here's the
latest grim news:
Bush plans to screen all Americans for
'mental illness': As reported in the British Medical Journal,
under another Orwellian program entitled, in Bush Newspeak, 'The
New Freedom Initiative',
Bush wants all Americans, including pre-school children, to be
examined
by armies of psychiatrists and those showing signs of potential
"disruptive or aggressive behaviours and emotional disorders", and
treated with a range of new, expensive antidepressants and
antipsychotic drugs available exclusively from -- surprise! --
pharmaceutical companies that have contributed three times as much to
Bush as to Kerry. This is a flagrant invasion of government into the
private medical histories and choices of Americans -- Big Brother
doping up American children. The plan, developed in Texas, has been
decried there as a massive payoff to the drug companies, and this new
initiative makes it a national program. An executive who blew the
whistle on kickbacks from pharma companies to the Texas legislators
was
fired for his indiscretion, the BMJ reports.
More foreign journalists terrorized,
deported by US Customs:
The Guardian tells the increasingly common story of harassment,
detention and intimidation of British and other 'friendly nation'
journalists when they attempt to enter the US. Although this treatment
is mild compared to the now-routine despicable, arbitrary and
sometimes
lethal abuse that people born in the third world face at the US
border,
it is evidence that the megalomanic and paranoid Homeland Security
brownshirts are now treating every non-American, and every American
with a foreign-sounding name or appearance as an enemy of the state,
and treating them accordingly. It's a government-run hate factory run
amok.
In other depressing and
under-reported US news:
Balance of payments debt reaches
another record:
A statistic watched closely by economists, but not really understood
by
the media, is the Net International Investment Position (NIIP), the
cumulative total of foreign investment and trade deficits. The Center
for American Progress analyzes the unprecedented degree to which the
US, and global, economy depends on willingness of the US's trade
partners to continue to finance the US's insatiable demand for foreign
goods and services, especially in the increasingly weak US dollar. See
my earlier articles for the explanation
of the danger. But take a look at the chart above to see how far it's
gone, surpassing $2.5 trillion
dollars, a fourth of the entire US economy, last year. Imagine what
would happen if the foreign creditors get nervous and decide to call
in
their debt, or at least denominate it in some other currency. Imagine
what will happen when
interest rates spike, and the interest on this debt alone suddenly
exceeds the lenders' ability to repay it without slashing domestic
spending and massively increasing taxes. That's exactly what happened
to Argentina, and to the Asian 'tiger' economies. Except this time,
the
bankrupt debtors will take the creditors with them.
Heard the latest about anthrax?: There has been
surprisingly little blather from the Bush machine about the recent
revelations (in the 9/11
report
etc.) that Al Qaeda has planned, and still plans, an anthrax-based
bioweapons attack on US soil. The group claiming responsibility for
the
Madrid bombings said that Operation "Winds of Black Death", involving
a
planned attack on the United States, was 90% complete. Attorney
General
Ashcroft has described the statement as coming from an Al Qaeda
spokesman. But while senior government and all military personnel now
get the (still risky and somewhat unreliable) anthrax vaccine, plans
to
administer or at least stock vaccine for all Americans appears
to have been abandoned.
So while Homeland Security wastes time (and America's reputation)
harassing harmless foreigners and torturing Iraqi inmates, this real
threat to Americans' security is ignored. It's almost enough to make
you think they are perversely hoping for another 9/11, or worse, to
get
re-elected.
Scary stuff. Michael Moore and Ralph Nader were both up in Canada this
week urging Canadians not to make the same mistake as Americans by
electing a Conservative government here on Monday. As I've reported
already,
even if the Conservatives get a plurality they won't be able to forge
a
lasting governing coalition. Michael and Ralph have their work cut out
for them in their own country, however. I'll have more to say about
both of them next week.

George Soros on The bubble of American
supremacy
03/12/2003 06:03 PMAn excellent article by George Soros, The bubble of American
supremacy, on why the world is not supporting Bush's war to remove the
tyrant Saddam Hussein. "The problem is that the world is allergic
to the Bush doctrine ...(1) The United States will do everything in
its power to maintain its unquestioned military supremacy; and (2) the
United States arrogates the right to preemptive action. ... the Bush
doctrine is not stated starkly; it is buried in Orwellian doublespeak.
The doublespeak is needed because the doctrine contradicts American
values. " Very highly recommended. Via Dave Farber's IP list....

George Bush, master of the big lie
03/19/2003 10:25 PMGeorge Bush, master of the big lie.
I've been wondering all day today why I got so furious last night at
Bush's unilateral declaration of war. I am not a pacifist, although I
respect the point of view of those who are. While I believe that the
US has been much too ready to resort to force, sometimes on the wrong
side, I also believe that the use of military force is sometimes
justified. For example, I reluctantly supported the Gulf War in 1991,
although I agreed with then Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
General Colin Powell that we should have given sanctions more time to
work. Under other circumstances, if it had been necessary, I can
imagine supporting the use of military force to disarm Saddam Hussein,
and perhaps even to remove him from power. So why have Bush's policies
infuriated me, and why did Bush's declaration of war send me into a
deep funk? Because of Bush's arrogance, mendacity, and cynical use of
American idealism and patriotism for domestic political advantage.
Bush is a habitual liar without principles, and none of the mainstream
media or politicians call him on it. He has adopted Goebbels' tactic
of repeating big lies so often that they come to be regarded as true.
From the disputed vote count in Florida, where it was alleged that
upset citizens (who turned out to be Republican congressional
staffers) stopped the recount, to last night, when
he announced that Saddam Hussein had 48 hours to leave the
country, or he would bring military conflict on himself (
yet it turned out the US military is going to invade Iraq,
whether or not Saddam Hussein leaves), Bush is a practitioner of
the Big Lie. For reasons I don't pretend to understand, but I'm
guessing have to do with not wanting to divide what they perceive as a
fragile country, or being afraid of being seen as "soft on terrorism,"
the media never stands up and says "He is lying again," even when it
is the obvious conclusion from their own reporting. For instance, the
information about the
US military being ordered to invade Iraq, no matter what Saddam
Hussein does, was buried in the middle of the New York Times. The
NYT didn't call any attention to it, nor did they point out how it
clearly it made Bush's "48 hours" speech a piece of political theater
divorced from the military reality. They just buried it, and gave the
big lie front page giant headline coverage. Clinton lied about sex and
the press hounded him; Bush lies about everything, and the press
broadcasts and amplifies the lie and suppresses the criticism. How
else to explain the poll finding that a majority of Americans believe
that Saddam Hussein was responsible for 911, a belief for which there
is no evidence other than repeated assertions by Bush that it is so?
The second part that infuriates me is Bush's arrogance,
self-righteousness, and conviction that he has a monopoly on wisdom
and judgment. Humility seems to be a foreign, or should I say
European, concept to him. The continual
belittling and insulting of allies, which I first
took to be the result of
incompetence, I have now become convinced is
intentional. Bush's unspoken motto is now
Oderint dum metuant,
"let them hate as long as they fear". He is ...

George Orwell Bush
09/05/2004 06:48 PMFrank Rich (NY Times): How
Kerry Became a Girlie-Man. The flaw in Mr. Kerry is not, as
Washington wisdom has it, that he asked for trouble from the Swifties
by bringing up Vietnam in the first place. Both his Vietnam service
and Vietnam itself are entirely relevant to a campaign set against an
unpopular and ineptly executed war in Iraq that was spawned by the
executive branch in similarly cloudy circumstances. But having brought
Vietnam up against the backdrop of our 2004 war, Mr. Kerry has nothing
to say about it except that his service proves he's more manly than
Mr. Bush. Well, nearly anyone is more manly than a president who
didn't have the guts to visit with the 9/11 commission unaccompanied
by a chaperone.

George Bush Senior gets it:
George Bush Senior gets it:
06/10/2004 01:25 AMOne of George Bush senior' closest aides, long-time CIA officer Donald
Gregg, writes in today's NYT: Recent reports indicate that Bush
administration lawyers, in their struggles to deal with terrorism,
wrote memos in 2003 pushing aside longstanding prohibitions on the use
of torture by Americans. These memos cleared the way for the horrors
that have been revealed in Iraq, Afghanistan and Guantánamo and make a
mockery of administration assertions that a few misguided enlisted
personnel perpetrated the vile abuse of prisoners. I can think of
nothing that can more devastatingly undercut America's standing in the
world or, more important, our view of ourselves, than these decisions.
Sanctioned abuse is deeply corrosive — just ask the French, who are
still seeking to eradicate the stain on their honor that resulted from
the deliberate use of torture in Algeria. ... As Alistair Horne put it
in "A Savage War of Peace," use of torture may have won the battle of
Algiers for the French, but it cost them Algeria. This is as close to
a public repudiation by George Bush Sr. of his son's criminal policies
as I can imagine seeing, similar to the Brent Scowcraft anti-Iraq war
Op-ed just before the Bush launched his war on Iraq. The price that
America has paid for this Oedipal battle is stupendous....
