Five Year Accomplishments
Let’s look at the world situation and see if I have it right:
1-Iran, with the world’s fourth largest oil reserve, is planning to build an atomic bomb, is threatening the United States to cut off oil exports, is threatening to use military force, is talking of closing the Gulf, and has threatened to wipe out the State of Israel.
2-Afghanistan is slowly sliding backwards in its fight against the Taliban, which is now using suicidal bombers ala Iraq. We can’t find Osama there, and our military is so small in the country that it is ineffective.
3-Now there are suicide bombers in Pakistan.
4-Hamas has taken over Palestine and has sworn to destroy Israel.
5-A civil war is brewing in Iraq with way in excess of 30,000 civilians killed, and our soldiers still dying there.
6-Caesar Chavez is threatening the United States with cutting off their oil.
7-Mexico’s President Fox has declared that the problem of both illegal immigrants and drug dealers shipping to the U.S., which continue to grow, are the United States’ problems and not Mexico’s.
8-Our so-called European allies are at odds with our foreign policy and have their own problems with immigration.
9-We have made enemies of all the Arab/Muslim world.
10-The American public has lost faith in this administration and only 38% of the public supports the efforts of the President. Questions are being asked about the honesty of the president.
11-Congress is at a standstill on immigration reform and doing something about our porous borders. The public has no faith in them at all.
12-Our government spending is out of control and our national debt is skyrocketing.
13-The war in Iraq is a disaster with no end in sight.
Isn’t that a wonderful accomplishment in just five years of the Bush administration? And no, I don’t feel safer.
