Oligarch Rules: Jeb Bush Surrounds Himself With Architects Of His Brother's Iraq War
Submitted by Mike Krieger via Liberty Blitzkrieg blog,
According to Reuters’ Steve Holland, Bush has tapped a “diverse” roster of former George W. Bush and George H. W. Bush officials to advise his burgeoning campaign on foreign policy, including key architects of the 2002 invasion of Iraq.
The list of advisers provided to Reuters by a campaign aid includes Paul Wolfowitz and Stephen Hadley, as well as former George W. Bush Homeland Security Secretaries Tom Ridge and Michael Chertoff, and Bush adviser Meghan O’Sullivan.
— From the Think Progress article: The Same People Who Lied To You About Iraq Are Now In Charge Of Jeb Bush’s Foreign Policy
It may be hard to believe, but either one of the two status quo choices for U.S. President currently being force-fed down the American public’s throat will be almost unquestionably more imperial and warlike than Barack Obama. The reason is simple. Any society that apathetically stands by as one President after the other tramples on the Constitution will be subject to a litany of increasingly tyrannical, and even insane, leaders. This is why the oligarchy isn’t even pretending that we live in a Republic or a Democracy anymore. They are shoving our pathetic servitude right in our face by putting up these two preposterous and dangerous candidates.
If you still had any doubt, today we learn that Jeb Bush is actively surrounding himself with the exact same people who under the George W. Bush administration, masterminded the terrible tragedy known as the Iraq war.
Think Progress covered this predictable, yet terrifying, reality earlier today. Brace yourself:
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) will deliver a speech on Wednesday that seeks to distance his foreign policy views from the previous two Bush presidents, saying, according to early excerpts, that while he admires his presidential family members, “I am my own man.”
“[M]y views are shaped by my own thinking and own experiences,” Bush will say as he lays out a vision that calls for increased military spending in order to project strength and encourage peace worldwide.
“Having a military that is equal to any threat is not only essential for the commander in chief … it also makes it less likely that we will need to put our men and women in uniform in harm’s way,” he will say. “Because I believe, fundamentally, that weakness invites war … and strength encourages peace.”
Yes, like all the peace the U.S. has unleashed upon the world since 9/11. Such as the creation of ISIS from the smoldering crater your brother left in Iraq.
The remarks come just days after Bush brushed aside questions about his view of President George W. Bush’s wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and as the Florida governor and presumptive GOP frontrunner works to define himself in the early days of the 2016 campaign.
According to Reuters’ Steve Holland, Bush has tapped a “diverse” roster of former George W. Bush and George H. W. Bush officials to advise his burgeoning campaign on foreign policy, including key architects of the 2002 invasion of Iraq.
The list of advisers provided to Reuters by a campaign aid includes Paul Wolfowitz and Stephen Hadley, as well as former George W. Bush Homeland Security Secretaries Tom Ridge and Michael Chertoff, and Bush adviser Meghan O’Sullivan.
Let’s take some of these characters one at a time…
Paul Wolfowitz – Wolfowitz, who served as Deputy Secretary of Defense in the George W. Bush administration, began advocating an attack on Iraq shortly after the Sep. 11 attacks, established “what amounted to a separate government” to push for war and invited journalists to secret meetings in order to lay out the foundation for his plans. Wolfowitz established the Office of Special Plans in the Pentagon that ignored the conclusions of the intelligence community and fed policy makers and the media discredited claims of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction.
Stephen Hadley – Then-Deputy National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley famously disregarded warnings from the CIA and then-FBI director George Tenet and included references to Iraq’s pursuit of uranium in Bush’s speeches, a claim that proved to be false. Hadley later apologized for leaving the now-infamous phrase in Bush’s 2003 State of the Union address and was promoted to become the president’s National Security Adviser.
Meghan O’Sullivan – Meghan O’Sullivan was as a top adviser to L. Paul Bremer — the U.S. viceroy in charge of the Coalition Provisional Authority that is blamed for mismanaging the occupation of Iraq immediately following the American invasion — and is credited with developing the security agreements and early transfer of sovereignty negotiations between the United States and Iraq. She also served as special assistant to George W. Bush from 2004 to 2007.
In 2003, for instance, Jeb Bush explained to Florida reporters that “in his heart, I know [George W. Bush] is doing what he thinks is right, and I concur with him.” Ten years later, he told an NBC reporter that “history will be kind to my brother [on Iraq] the further out you get from this and the more people compare his tenure to what’s going on now.” And in a joint CNN interview with George in 2010, Jeb said, “I have never disagreed with [George W. Bush]… ‘til death do us part.”
History is being written as we speak, and we can now see that the war in Iraq led directly to the creation of ISIS. Kind indeed.
This is all I have to say about that…

I live in this Country?
Bushlandia,
giggity.
lets bring this fucker all the way home.....bush/cheney....that nigger dont look so bad now. i was wondering how they were going to do that...
Can we get a cheer for another "Clinton/Bush" election?!!! .... <crickets> ... I thought not.
Nice to see that they're getting the ol' gang back together.
This will make it much easier to round them up for the Iraqi war crimes trials at the Hauge.
Psychopaths of a feather flock together.
just a little, now ive heard it all, late night humor...
http://lasvegas.cbslocal.com/2015/02/19/utah-court-allows-woman-to-sue-h...
There is no way we get Clinton and bush,,,,,,we get 2 new candidates who have already been selected
So americans have the choice between Billary and Bush45. It fucks with my mind and I'm not american.
You don't need to be an American for it to fuck with your mind. You need two things: To know a little something about the past few US presidents, and a mind.
Jeb looks like his mother, Barbara.
Please say that they are going to re-unite Rummey, Condi, Dickie-Poo, Ashcroft, Colin and the rest of the war criminals for Jeb's Common-Core, Act-of-Love-Amnesty administration... I think I'm going to puke...
Explain this Jeb...

Two party system? Yeah....don't think so.
Yes, its a one party system, always has been with a bone thrown this way or that way to satisfy this constituency or that.
But whats this, the shredding of official public documents could be triggered by "voter error"?
"The city’s new municipal ID program allows for personal info provided by applicants to be destroyed at the end of 2016, in case a conservative Republican wins the White House and demands the data, the law’s co-sponsor told The Post on Monday.
City Councilman Carlos Menchaca (D-Brooklyn) said the measure was crafted so data submitted by those seeking the cards can be destroyed on Dec. 31, 2016.
The cards are aimed at undocumented immigrants.
“In case a Tea Party Republican comes into office and says, ‘We want all of the data from all of the municipal ID programs in the country,’ we’re going to take the data,” he explained."
We're going to take the data...its OUR data, not governments, not the publics, the "self destruct button" is a feature not a bug.
Mmmkay, the original criminal gangs of New York...lol.

We rest our case your honor...
whats to worry? Jebbie is a fourth degree knight of columbus !
in case you didnt read your history textbook, columbus claimed america for whom?
certainly not for any of you presumptuous posters !
Well, he sailed under the Knights Templar flag, so...
Two party enough that when you fail you can blame the other party. Say it enough it is believed by enough that you are never held accountable electing the other party, always the same party heads and tails and it matters not what side the coin lands on except to those that get richer betting on the result.
multiple choices.
We clint-bush a few people, too few, so repeat;
We didn't learn the clint-bush lesson, so take two;
Amrka deserved the best of the best...these are/n't;
'same' two candidates from 'same' two parties, small circle, same bag of s.............................
................................................................................................igh !
Osay can't you see...
Gotta go with the Clintons on this one -- 63 to 7 -- even without Coach Ditka.
Although Obama was a total retard, the Donkeys have this one again.
I bet Hillary adds vasectomy to the Obamacare freebies...
It's like deciding if you want to be bled with a knife held in the right hand or the left hand.
Just imagine living here. It is revolting. It is deafening.
But of course... the media plays it up now that it will be Clinton/Bush... which has just gotta be about the most depressing and pathetic thing ever. Only to reveal that it's something else equally if not more shitty than those options... but the fact that the names are different will make them seem "new" and "exicting". Bow down to your masters (or get the hell out if you're smart)
If they tell us to vote for lesser of 2 evils, it'll be a stalemate.
Those of us who refuse to vote for either will have to put up with the, "If you vote for someone else, that's a vote for (candidate demopublican or republicrat, whichever one they oppose.)
You can take the ZH method and not vote, or if you were to vote 3rd party and you got that response from somebody, you could always answer "Motherfucker, I don't want either of them. If beside each of their names on the ballot, it said Yes/No/Guillotine, I'd select Guillotine for both of them." That would probably make some heads spin and some pea soup come flying out.
Voting for Jill Stein in '12 was my last vote as a protest to the 2 other douches that ran.. When these scoundrels care about the whole country being spied on AND do something about it, that's when i'll vote again.
One of my nephews had a car chair with a steering wheel on it when he was a little tyke. He actually thought he was steering the vehicle when they went on a trip.
In time, you grow out of such delusions as the national 'vote'.
double post deleted
Let's put this in perspective: Think Progress is a radical, far-left tool of John Podesta, George Soros, et. al. Jeb is neither his own man nor is he a conservative. As someone else noted, he and his family are solid members in good standing of the NWO-CFR-Davos crowd. They are the lap dogs of the US Chamber of Commerce, an open-border organization with much more love for their wallets than the US of A. All of these shmucks are coastal elitists and have no problem with 99% of Obama's desecration of the Constitution.
As the time winds up towards the 2016 election, watch how easy the MSM goes on Jeb. Although Jeb's not their boy, they're okay with him as opposed to a real conservative. BTW, Hillary win never run. Fauxahontas may, but not Hillary. Nor will Biden.
Hilary will run and she will win. Having Bush as opponent is part of the plan. In gratitude to IPAC, she will attack Iran. The official unofficial version will be she needed that to prove her strength. In case JB pulls up a suprsise - he'll do the same
attack Iran and watch Saudi explode and Pakistan too........will be quite a lesson for the USA to make the world very dangerous and then watch the USA itself break up and fragment like Iraq
Saudi Arabia and Iran are mortal enemies.
Do you have another way to take away the bank roll of the terrorist.
The world is at war the only thing that draws us in full scaled is when we finally take a big enough hit.
All because Bush hit Iraq instead of Iran the real actor.
haha. For a second there I thought you said Israel.
Obama as a constitutional scholar has upheld it more than any Republican in all American history.
Is the part you fail to grasp and that is why nothing fits for you and your ilk.
Shut up and pay your taxes serf.
Cheney has a daughter. She a neocon and as a bonus shes gay. Wow what a match.
Clinton married a Kankle, she's a gay neocon psycho/socio (path); Put em on the same ticket - I mean really screw it the elephant fucked the mule a long time ago and we've been "voting" for the offspring ever since........ that'd give Putin a real adversary........
..... Bushlandia perhaps Dumbfukistan absolutely
+1 "Bush and Architects" in the same sentence just boggles the mind.
They belong to the exclusive "Architects and Engineers for Lies" club.
The country needs another fukn Bush or fukn Clinton as much as it needs a third term by the arrogant narcissistic illegal indonesian kenyan alien muslim fudgepacker in chief...
If the US elects either Jeb Bush or Hitlary Clinton in 2016, we REALLY & TRULY ARE FUCKED BEYOND REDEMPTION, HOPE OR SALVATION.
FFS, Richard Perle? Wolfowitz? These DUAL-CITIZEN (Israel Firsters) MOTHERFUCKERS SHOULD HAVE BEEN SHOT BY A FIRING SQUAD
I'm not saying anyone nominated/elected will be for the people, but Jeb or Hitlary being elected will be the final judgment on the fact that all is lost - forever.
I really, really, really hope the Rethuglican party nominates Jeb Bush, AND the Deceptocrats nominate Hillary Clinton.
Such an election, no matter who "wins" it, will be an open notification to all Amuricans that they are slaves to a vicious lying elite which holds them in contempt, if it considers them at all. The first step to any real change is to admit that change is required, and a 2016 Bush-Clinton contest may serve as just such an admission.
Anyhow the above prospect makes me glad I cancelled my US voter registration last year....
Agreed, with a slight modification: Dems nominate Jeb, Repubs nominate Hillary
People believe what they want to believe...
heads in sand, still.
Man, all you people think there is going to be an election in 2016? Fools. It will be the coronation of Emperor Barack the First.

Career politicians are exactly the same as having herpes - once entenched, never goes away then keeps coming back again & again & again & again with no cure
Laugh it up - Jeb will be installed. Oh, thats right, just like his brother W - on Jebs watch in corrupt Florida no less.
You think Im joking, put the pieces together ZH fools!
Unfortuntely the feminazi movement and the sheep over at the likes of Huffington Post, MSNBC will see electing Hillary, the first man-woman as president as a great leap forward <--- see what I did there?
I was under the impression that $60 trillion in total debt, public and private and not counting unfunded liabilities, plus over $200 trillion in derivatives exposure plus TBTF getting even TBTFer plus the NSA plus the militarization of police plus 14 straight years of war that we're going to ramp up, again, plus a employment-population ratio that shows that real unemployment is a fuckload higher than the BLS says it is plus a 30 year bond bubble plus etc... meant that the final judgment on the fact that all was lost was already here and we've just been given time to get our affairs in order before the sentence is carried out. Jeb vs Hillary would just be a wakeup call to the bleating masses.
The masses will only wake up after general radiation levels go beyond 25 mSv/a, after which they'll have about 2 weeks to effect political changes. Due to the short time involved, these could be quite dramatic.
Long as their EBT cards will still get them 32Oz of ice and corn syrup at the local convenience store, no, they won't wake up.
Hillary vs. Jeb?
That would only greater convince the masses of the need to
"vote for the lesser of two evils"
identified by whether they were a blue team fan, or a red team fan.
(voting third party would just be "wasting a vote" ....
hahahahahahahahahaha ...ROFL)
Just think of it as Yin and Yan.

Day by day, Singapore is calling me
Jeb Bush will continue Obama's New World Order policies. The same Jeb Bush who, as Florida governor in 2001, for over three years covered up the murder of Gus Boulis, whose mob killers were paid for by Jack Abramoff, George Bush's major fundraiser. The same Jack Abramoff who gave Mohammed Atta unlimited invites on the gambling boat line he stole from Boulis, according to Wayne Madsen. As the Syrian army encircles ISIS occupied Aleppo, Obama is trying to get approval to bomb the Syrians, as well as giving green cards to the ISIS murderers who manage to escape. Under Obama and Holder, "aiding and abetting" killers and war criminals is no longer a crime in the USA.

As long as they are "your" killers and war criminals...
Jeb will spend four years defending and protecting Obama's policies. Who are we kidding? They are all one and the same.

The idea the American people have "stood by" is wrong. Snowden. Ferguson. Tea Party (ok it failed, but we tried). Ron Paul 2012. Changing public opinion. etc. What happening is that the Government has gone out of control and won't stop until stopped. This is standard pre-violent revolution stuff. It remains to be seen which way the Government will go out (1) Forced collapse by monetary failure or (2) Armed revolt or (3) Political change forced by external events or (4) Some combination of (1) and (2) and (3) - but as has been proven, a mere 10% of Americans grabbing guns and saying "No more" will be enough to remove the Government. To those that say the Military will prevent a revolution, look at Egypt or Libya. The military stood down when people rose up and it would be the same here.
Any society that apathetically stands by as one President after the other tramples on the Constitution will be subject to a litany of increasingly tyrannical, and even insane, leaders.
I am less confident that the military would stand down. All top brass who were non-committal in shooting the American people have been "retired." The military are paid mercenaries, beholden to .gov for their pay and pensions.
Don't forget to wave your flag and hang your yellow ribbons, folks! 'Murica...!
Those retired Generals are now available to lead the insurgency...
Something tells me that the military, including the ones who would be ordered to pull triggers, are just as divided as the populace.

Even a meat puppet is preferred over these two.
We are truly a zombie nation -- cue up The Cranberries.
.....there have been many instances where the people have stood up in sizeable numbers but we never hear much if anything about it due to the lack of media in this country as well as the corruption of any grass roots movements - a la Occupy - of course there were islands where the Po Po were held in check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPOPzjWNrG0
.......It only takes a few firmly resolved to uphold the actual law of the land to turn the tide
@ our military will stand down.
Don't count on it.

Oh, and fuck Jeb Bush.
He's going to need Darth Cheney if he wants to pull off another 911.
In a fair and just world, all those responsible for the Iraq war would be in jail for the rest fo their lives.
US Sponsored Genocide Against Iraq 1990-2012. Killed 3.3 Million, Including 750,000 ChildrenIn an address last Nov. 22 to The International Conference on War-affected Children in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Boyle tallied the death toll on Iraq by U.S.-U.K. actions as follows:
# The slaughter of 200,000 Iraqis by President Bush in his illegal 1991 Gulf War I.
# The deaths of 1.4 million Iraqis as a result of the illegal 2003 war of aggression ordered by President Bush Jr. and Prime Minister Blair.
# The deaths of 1.7 million Iraqis “as a direct result” of the genocidal sanctions.

What Barak started?? The slow purge to helll has been going on since Clinton and I'm giving Reagen a pass.
As a Floridian, I'm supposed to worship Jeb Bush.
Is it possible we will have a third Bush and a third Iraq war? Sure is.
Personally I find myself less and less interested in such things as time goes on. It's just polishing the brass on the Titanic.
I'm just glad I woke up when I did. I'm 28. Without this site it might have taken me another 10-15 years.
But then, the knowledge gained from taking the red pill has only led me to discover how truly fucked up reality is. I used to do drugs all the time in an attempt to escape the banality of the human species. My newfound understanding of how the world works has brought me ony grief.
Sorry for the weird post. I haven't slept in a couple of days.
It won't be Iraq, because how can there be anything wrong with Iraq? It will be the other two-syllable Muslim "I" country.
My newfound understanding of how the world works has brought me ony grief.
I understand how you feel, many of us do here. Hang in there, you are one of the priviledged that has been awakened and it's not pretty or fun ..for a while. Play with it, you will get to like it better than mind numbing propoganda "what's wrong with the world?" bullshit, because now you will be in a position of power and helping others out when you wish to, when they will listen. Good luck.
You mean ISIS?
That will take care of itself, if you know what I mean, once that other "I" country is "liberated".
Johnny Depp was right..... dumb puppies.

Welcome to the sleeplessness. Try not to become self destructive or mean. Withdrawl isn't productive: seek others with careful attention.. Remember: you might be lonely but you aren't alone. Some of us have been out here in the clarity, suffering it, for a long time...
It's hard to be aware, to sustain it without damaging yourself. Preserving the self is key. You have to value awareness for it's own sake, and youself for the courage of choosing to face reality.
The fact is: you can't go back now anyway... You will never be a sleepwalker again.
Hone your skills diligantly. Choose your fights carefully.
Keep humor and love in your heart along side the cynacism and hatred. You will need both aspects of yourself and cannot neglect one for the maitenance of the other...
Learn to make soap.
Welcome to Fight Club.
"...Preserving the self is key..."
Nope - preserving your humanity is key. Self-preservation without empathy makes you a useless, lonely old hermit. You will die regretting your life.
"...Keep humor and love in your heart along side the cynacism and hatred..."
See? We agree already. Humor and love are unnecessary for self-preservation unless you necessarily include humanity (empathy) as part of self. I know you probably meant that, ToV - I'm just being a smartass. Our DNA is wired for survival of all DNA (a diverse society) not survival of our indivudual DNA (preservation of self). Nobody would show up for the banksters' wars OR send their sons or daughters off to the banksters' wars if perservation of self was paramount.
Psychopaths are obsessed with preservation of self devoid of their own humanity. They can't experience humor or love like normal people and consider them as mere entertainment (gratification of self).
If your life is reduced to hookers and stand-up, then it's time to ask Alice - I think she'll know. [edit: 40 days of wandering around the hills fasting are said to work as well]
I am not sure anybody ever sends their sons and daughters off to war. Regardless, I can not imagine what could possibly motivate such people.
All the sons and daughters I know freely chose to risk their own lives in foreign lands for banksters.
<<Our DNA is wired for survival of all DNA (a diverse society) not survival of our indivudual DNA (preservation of self).>>
The fear can make you crazy but it also makes you strong. The secret I feel is to see yourself as beautiful due to your special awareness, not just strong. They are satanic, but you are beautiful, light in the Universe.
When you can see the 'beautiful light in the Universe' in everybody (including psychopaths) then you are truly aware. I'll give you that there are a fraction of the 1% that have no light at all. They may serve the planet much better as hermits or fertilizer - your call.
Your best post ever Throxx. .....
Not your usual drivel....ahem.
Your post is not weird. And many feel the same.
My advice, do not read too much history from the last 100 or so years. It will only open your eyes more to the fact that none of this is new. Sure, the faces change, but the locations and issues (more importantly the methods) are all the same.
People in the US were against the Spanish/American war (and most wars since) but Roosevelt played the old "you are not a true patriot card." Mark Twain, at that time a vocal critic, even wrote a few pieces against American imperialism and instructed his family not to share them until after his death, or longer for fear of reprisal.
The same tactics were used in all wars since.
Don't worry plenty of people are snapping out of their stupors W
That fucktard is messing with the party in a big way. I wouldn't vote for another Bush if you burned me alive!
Jeb Bush is fucking joke (RINO). The sooner he's out of the running the better. If I were making a choice, I like Scott Walker right now.
doesn't matter for whom you will vote
I like Scott, too. Which probably means he doesn't have a prayer.
That guy is an authoritarian choad. You really think he would govern this country in a way the resembles true liberty and freedom ? You would be voting for more war , more debt, the war on drugs, more welfare, more police state, etc. I would have thought you would know better. That guy is nothing but another garden variety republican, which means statist authoritarian. He is no different from bush(any of them, take your pick), Romney, Hillary, huckabee. All of them are the same where it counts.
Nixon did hideous damage to the GOP. It's never really recovered. Reagan shoulders a lot of the blame too.
To my mind, the last true conservative to run for president (under the banner of a major party) was Barry Goldwater. Look how that turned out.
Odd as it may seem, the last true conservative to occupy the Oval Office was JF Kennedy.
Let's not get carried away. JFK was the one who allowed government 'workers' to unionize.
Scott Walker? Eek.
Scott Walker and Bobby Gindahl (sp?) .... the Bush's and the Clintons had their chances .... move along dot org !
If I am presented a Bush vs. Clinton choice again in the 2016 elections I'm gonna straight-up shoot myself.
I'm starting to think Hillary won't run. Which, of course, means that Jeb Bush is already President.

You're kidding yourself if you think Hillary won't run. You think the Clinton Foundation took 2 Billion in foreign contributions just to do "good deeds"?
"Yes."
Concur. After all, it depends on your definition of good deeds.
record it and put on youtube
I'll see if I can get Brian Williams to narrate it.
Brian Williams already narrated your suicide. I saw him talking about it on Letterman.
Aparently you shot yourself in the scrotum with a nailgun repeatedly until you expired.
It took days.
Brian said he had to go to Home Depot like 5 times just to get more nails and for glue and paint thinner for him to huff while he cheered you on..
You poor fuck.
Brian said your crotch looked like a dancing epilptic porkupine near the end; but, in your final hours that you spoke lovingly of me...
Max out your credit before you do and purchase gold and bury it and leave it to someone. There's no sense in dying with no debt. Fuck the bankers.
I like the way you're thinking...
Yeah, people forget all the bad stuff of the past. Because it feels better than to remember it. Perversely, therefore, only bad history repeats.
Why stop there? Bring in rabbi dov zakkeheim too!

Jeb Clinton/Hillary Bush...........thats war you can believe in......
I would believe it if there were rumors of a fling between them.
Not to mention the effect the depleted uranium is having on millions of others.....
A more accurate headline would be, "Military/industrial/intelligence/security/banking complex oligarchs continue to pick the candidates for both parties."
You forgot propaganda wing of the military industrial complex, mass media.
"You furnish the pictures, and I'll furnish the war." William Randolph Hearst
I think when we see Jeb Bush run as the republican presidential candidate against Hillary Clinton as democratic presidential candidate we will all be aware of the greatest democracy in the world, and the freedom WE have to choose our leaders in a free, fair and open system. This system is beyond compare, we people decide who rules us and they must respond to us the people. I know when I vote, I will think long and hard, because the right vote could turn our nation around, and bring back the government that is of, by and for the people. Get active, get involved, that is why our deomocracy is better than any other.
Is there a drug that makes you think this? Because if so, tell me what it is and what it looks like so I know to avoid it.
Well, I think voting is useless and kind of kooky myself. However, I think encouraging more people to get involved in the political process is a good way of leading people to realize it is bullshit. It is also a way to get to know folks and see what makes them tick. You know what kind of people move up in politics.
Local(ish) politics is still full of bullshit, but there is a chance for a few decent people to get in there. I ran into a state senator that passed a bill that required state agencies that had records in electronic format to hand them over in electronic format if requested under the state's sunshine laws. This is because they'd print out the electronic records, have you come in to view them, then charge you $0.50-$1.00 per page to copy the unnecessary copies. Why? To make it a PITA for people to snoop around in what actually is their business. Fuckers. He also said that a few other pols tried to get it killed in committee, but it made it to the floor and passed. I thanked him. Funny thing was, I had about a half an hour to shoot the shit with him. He knew about the OTC derivatives stuffed into FDIC insured deposit taking subsidiaries of the banks and was just as shocked as most of us were when we first found out about them.
But he told me that that was his last term. He didn't say it, but I got the impression that he was tired of political BS.
Hell, I want to get some of it.
MDB approves this message.
JB dun caught hisself a live one
Either you are being facetious, or you are a gullable moron. Bush? Hitlery? Can you say nepotism. I mean this is the exact definition of nepotism. You do not have a choice. Would you rather die by poison or drowning? Cause that is your choice, death. Oh you want to live (that would require a candidate not already chosen).
It is a fucking lose lose. Wake the hell up.
Sarcasm man. Learn to calibrate your antenna.
Really...I hate the fuckin' new people. They come to the Fight Club unprepared.
I'll admit, even though I read and like what jack says, I had to reread it just to make sure.
God, that was beautiful, Jack! [sniff]
We must never forget that in the very exceptional U.S.A., our individual votes are the most powerful force in the entire universe (except for the government's laws).
We can mold and shape the goverment to be the ultimate force for freedom, liberty and democracy everywhere. [cue Statue of Liberty overlay] In fact, it is our obligation and duty to vote because many old, dead people died for that right! [more sniffling...] Clinton or Bush? How many people of other nations across the globe would kill for the chance to vote between those two stalwarts of liberty?
Our blessing is also our curse: we can only chose ONE of those two modern-day heros to run our country. How is that even possible? Can't we change the Constitution so during this very special time in history, we can have (dare I say it...) BOTH OF THESE heros leading us? [squeeeel] I almost wet my pants at the thought.
VOTE BOTH 2016 [squeeeel]
JFC, that was hilarious!!!

This system is beyond compare, we people decide who rules us and they must respond to us the people. I know when I vote, I will think long and hard, because the right vote could turn our nation around, and bring back the government that is of, by and for the people. Get active, get involved, that is why our deomocracy is better than any other."
well, yes, the US system is beyond compare. no other country elects one person to so much power, and increasingly so
but the utter conviction that this is why this democratic setup is better then any other is beyond me. and I thought you were ruled by laws, not men ("we people decide who rules us")
there is a small difference between being led and being ruled which you might want to look up. but again, this is ZH, where irony, sarcasm and bullshit are often hard to take apart
and yet, even if it was sarcasm, I could not imagine many US cousins here being in favour of a constitutional amendment of any sort
I assure you, Ghordius: this was sarcasm with a double layer of cynicism icing.
I think I speak for Jack here too when I say enduring a Bush v. Clinton presidential race would be something like bobbing for apples - in a vat of nitric acid.
No, wait... it would be much worse than that.
Kill your TV and you'll eliminate 99% of the election bullshit.
The US can elect a sand flea from Kenya and rejoice, so I guess anything's possible.
Is that you, MillionDollarBonus?
Sarc yes
"I think when we see Jeb Bush run as the republican presidential candidate against Hillary Clinton as democratic presidential candidate we will all be aware of the greatest democracy in the world..."
...come to a bitter end as the Republicans/Democrats facilitate the suppression of Third Party and Independent Candidates for good. The Tyranny of Five-Eyed Bankers and OIlmen prop up their Leaders from Term to Term - diminishing the Civil, Property, and Privacy Rights and Economical Vitality of Citizens through one manufactured and self-inflicted Crisis after another, as the Federal Republic and the British-Commonwealth officially merge and rename themelves as an Imperial Hegemony...
There, Mr. Burton - fixed it for you. ROTFL!!!
By the time "that" happens, hopefully the Tylers will have all sorts of Expat Blogs linked on the Left...
Can you believe there are adults still falling for this? What is it Flouride? Ppl can't be this fucking stupid! I guess it is going to have to be all the intelligent ppl who can think on thier own will have no choice but to leave the country.
"Can you believe there are adults still falling for this?"
Go spend a couple of hours at Walmart. Not shopping, unless they have ammo, but just people watching. You'll see a lot of people there who are there because they live on shit wages and Walmart sells shit or it squeezes its suppliers, or both, and thus the cheap prices, but you'll also see a lot of dumb motherfuckers there who think that shopping at Walmart is patriotic or some shit. Or swank. Or something. But it wouldn't be possible for these people to exist if breathing weren't an autonomic function.
Half the population is below average and we bus them to the polls.
Simply unreal how dumb this population is. When will these madmen stop getting sucked off by an apathetic populace?
Normally I'd just crack a rather dark joke about the Pol Pot solution to useless eaters... But if the sheeple allow their faux party leaders to present this non-choice of dynastic war mongers, then that same joke will be on us. Bring back the draft, no lottery - full conscription, everyone serves, and if they don't serve or aren't a net payor of taxes, NO VOTE.
Pol Pot was a man ahead of his time...
He had a lot of heads on pikes, but people complain about that like it's a 'bad' thing.
Heads on pikes, sure, but Pol Pot only killed those whom he didn't like, thought could be enemies, those who didn't jump when one of his lackies said jump, people who were smart, and people who simply looked smart because they wore glasses.
Chauncy Gerdener for Pres !
