Through the Eyes of the Corruptible Bush GOP ... Blame the Victims

MS. SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON
by Shirley Smith

More propaganda by the GOP? Why don't the GOP members in Congress try monitoring their own ... such as Bush's expenses alone? If there has been any corruption, my money will go on the GOP and the company who received the "one bid" only contracts for Iraq and Louisiana ... which should never be allowed in a Democratic government. And, what about the deadly fraud committed by FEMA? The nerve of these people to accuse and blame the victims!

Sen. Larry E. Craig (R-Idaho) echoed sentiments expressed by many of his colleagues when he insisted recently that every federal dollar sent to Louisiana be strictly monitored. "Louisiana and New Orleans are the most corrupt governments in our country, and they have always been," Craig told a newspaper in his home state. "Fraud is in the culture of Iraqis. I believe that is true in Louisiana as well."

They single out Sen. Mary L. Landrieu (D-La.), who has made angry speeches on the Senate floor and kept the chamber in session overnight in October, holding up other legislation, as she pressed her colleagues for more aid. Some Republicans say her tone, which they describe as "shrill," has alienated her colleagues and undercut her efforts.

I think Mr. Craig misspoke ... if we trace all of the lies and fraud just during the last five years ... the Bush GOP are going to win by a landslide. I don't know what Landrieu wants from Congress. She has voted for the bankruptcy bill and the bill that literally took food out of her own people's mouths. If she is wanting something, I would be suspect of what is was, too. She could be just trying to help stir things up so the Bush GOP will get their way. I'm sure with the Bush GOP is running things and the Democrats in Louisiana are followers of the Bush GOP ... so who is really fooling whom?

Fraud is in the culture of Iraqis? The Bush GOP created the fraud in Iraq. Leave it to a member of the Bush GOP to always be able to say some of the most hateful, racist and stupid statements ever to be heard by someone in our own government. The hate held by these people is largely the reason we have the problems we have in this GOP majority in US government today. Anyone who can make such a statement does not deserve to be in our government in any position ... and we have a government full of these people.

Because no one in the GOP has ever had to be accountable for their deadly fraud (FEMA) and the billions that have been stolen out of Iraq and the fraud committed by overcharging because of all of the privatization brought about by the corrupted side of the Republican Party for the last 30 years ... they should know all about fraud ... including the fraud in companies selling to our military and last of all, the deadly fraud in lying this country into a war that has created the largest debt ever ... and then we have all of the US election fraud.

The only people who are experts in fraud are those people who are members of the Bush GOP and their followers, and, they don't feel that they need to be accountable for all of that missing money in Iraq or anything else in Iraq.

We Americans aren't stupid, some may be slow to admit we've been had; Iraqis have been had, and my guess was right after the flood, that New Orleans would be had. The worst part is that both frauds in Iraq and Louisiana have cost people their lives and their livelihoods. Americans know all about this fraud ... and another fraud on all of America are all of those Republican members in Congress who refuse to impeach this treasonous Bush GOP administration and punish those who have been complicit in all of this fraud ... except treason is a better word for this than fraud.

The main problems we have today in the US are due to the lack of the monitoring of the Republican Party by the Democrats and their (GOP) lack of controls on corporations and lack of controls throughout our government in DC. Years and years of legislation have finally caught up with the US and have taken us where we are today ... debt, death and destruction ... most of it caused by the lies and fraud perpetrated by the Bush GOP and their followers who have been in US government for the last 30 years.

This is all an act in my mind ... so that the GOP will again get their way. Create a fire and the only way to put it out is to give in or compromise with the racist Bush GOP. It happens again and again. It just looks better to see a Democrat -- Landrieu -- (cough) causing the ruckus ... so that, the GOP can do what they planned to do and blame a Democrat who is really a Republican just doing her job for them.

People don't understand how so much sympathy could turn to wrath? Look at 911 after the Bush GOP got involved. It's the same song, just a different location. Except, this time, they want an excuse not to do the job and don't want the blame. They want to probably do it their way, make New Orleans in the same image as the Bush GOP. Frightening thought.

Isn't it about time that all of these people pay for their crimes instead of constantly being allowed to keep blaming the victims? Everyone who is not a Bush GOP member and follower ... are victims of this administration. Everyone! 

Just a thought,
