244 REASONS WHY BUSH SHOULDN'T BE RE-ELECTED!

From Lu Cifer....

99+ Reasons To...VOTE BUSH OUT!

Thanks to you, the list is now at 244 reasons. Keep
'em coming.

To show some respect to Dennis Kucinich and his
supporters.

We deserve a President who can communicate.

Although Bush should be removed from office by
impeachment, the Republican run congress probably
won't, therefore we must VOTE BUSH OUT!

According to CBS News, Attorney General John
Ashcroft's latest terror bulletin was an over-hyped
political diversion.

Wall Street Journal contributing editor Mark Helprin
called Abu Ghraib "a symbol of the inescapable fact
that the war has been run incompetently, with an
apparently deliberate contempt for history, strategy,
and thought."

According to Amnesty International’s 2004 report, The
Bush administration’s so-called 'war on terror' is
"bankrupt of vision and bereft of principle".

Even Richard Perle, until recently a powerful adviser
to U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, described
U.S. policy in post-war Iraq as a failure.

Bush and company ransack the house of Ahmad Chalabi,
the convicted embezzler, con man, head of Iraqi
National Congress, whom Bush paid millions of our tax
dollars to feed us phony intelligence on those pesky
W.M.D's (Weapons of Mass Destruction).

Bush's incompetence reminds us of the Keystone Cops.

President Bush fell off his bicycle Saturday, May 22,
2004.

Dick Cheney has an uncanny resemblance to Lyndon
LaRouche.

Bush violated his oath of office ?“I do solemnly
swear that I will faithfully execute the office of
President of the United States, and will to the best
of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the
Constitution of the United States.?BR>
Regarding 9/11 - Bush knew.

Retired General Anthony Zinni said 'They've Screwed
Up'

Governor Howard Dean said "we have the power".

According to a Newsweek magazine investigation, Bush,
Defense Secretary Rumsfeld and Attorney General John
Ashcroft, signed off on a secret system of detention
and interrogation that opened the door to prisoner
abuse in Iraq.

A little known 1996 law passed by Congress, known as
the War Crimes Act, bans any American from committing
war crimes—defined in part as "grave breaches" of the
Geneva Conventions.

The Timken factory, that Bush touted for his tax cuts,
closes, leaving 1,300 more Ohioans jobless - and the
Canton, Ohio community is devastated.

The Bush administration tried to curb Red Cross visits
to Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq.

With Bush, the buck never stops, it just get passed.

Rumsfeld did not bother to read the report that
described the horrific conditions of abuse at Abu
Ghraib prison, even though he has been aware of the
concerns for months.

His war on women's reproductive rights in the USA.

He needs a new job.

John Dean, former counsel to President Nixon, says the
Bush Administration's secrecy and deception over the
war with Iraq should result in impeachment.

His budgets deliberately starve state and local
governments.

He is sending sick, injured and wounded soldiers back
to Iraq long before they are ready to serve again.

Bush joshed, "Those weapons of mass destruction have
to be here somewhere," as he narrated a slide show,
during the annual dinner of Washington radio and TV
correspondents.

Richard Clarke, Bush's former anti-terrorism advisor,
who has served four presidents, a registered
Republican in 2000, has accused President Bush of
ignoring the threat of al-Qaeda before the September
11th attacks, and focussing on Iraq at the expense of
his war against terrorism.

Attorney General John Ashcroft proposed a reduction in
counterterrorism funds one day before the 9/11
attacks.

Before Sept. 11 dealing with terrorism was not one of
the Justice Department's seven strategic goals.

The White House slashed the FBI requested
counterterrorism budget by two-thirds after Sept.11.

Refuses to buy adequate body armor for our soldiers in
Iraq.

His idea of middle east peace is Armegeddon.

Lied about additional funding for firefighters and
other first responders.

He wants to privatize your grandma's Social Security.

Lied to Nevada voters about placing a nuclear waste
dump at Yucca Mountain.

That Smirk.

Harken Energy = Insider Trading.

He doesn't know what "Freedom and Justice for All"
means.

The Smoky Mountains aren't supposed to be so smoky.

The Dixie Chicks were absolutely right.

The brave people of Spain showed us what to do with
failed leadership.

Quoted on CNN.com: "If this were a dictatorship, it
would be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I'm
the dictator."

Talks the religious talk but doesn't walk the
religious walk.

Yee! Hah! is not a foreign policy.

His Executive Order # 13233 suppresses the release of
presidential archives.

Has difficulty understanding the separation of church
and state.

He traded away Sammy Sosa, when he ran the Texas
Rangers baseball franchise.

We "misunderestimated" how dangerous he really was.

When he said Iraqi oil belongs to the Iraqi people, he
actually meant giving no-bid contracts to Halliburton
and other insider companies so the American oil
companies will own the Iraqi oil fields.

The remarkable amount of nepotism throughout the
administration.

He misled congress about "so-called" Medicare reform
costs.

In George, we do not trust.

He is an embarrasment to a majority of America.

He is more interested in looking good than in telling
the truth.

His dream is our American Nightmare.

His nightmare is the peace, prosperity, freedom, and
better days of the Clinton Era.

We are not better off than we were four years ago.

More children living in poverty as a result of his
administration.

Even the Pentagon is afraid of Global Warming.

Never delivered promised money to NYC for 9/11damage.

Acting in violation of Nuclear Non-Proliferation
Treaty by developing new nuclear weapons.

He is not presidential.

He is not electable.

Just plain because.

He's even pissing off republicans.

Bush wins the inaugural “Herbert Hoover Award?for
having the worst jobs record since the Great
Depression - and President Hoover. Drum roll please?BR>
The Bush administration is trying to criminalize
dissent.

Reclassifying Mcdonalds jobs as manufacturing jobs.

Diebold voting machines.

The owner of Diebold is a major Bush supporter.

Shameless new Bush ads use 9/11 tragedy for political
gain.

The American people have to endure his misleading 200
million dollar ad campaign.

The kidnapping of Haitian President Jean-Bertrand
Aristide.

The deposed Haitian dictator Jean-Claude "Baby Doc"
Duvalier has announced that he intends to return to
Haiti asap.

Continual attempts to overthrow Venezuela.

He tap dances on our constitution.

Howard Stern is out of a job. (Lu Cifer's note:
Well...only in Miami, San Deigo, Pittsburgh, Orlando,
Louisville & Rochester...THANKS BUSHitler! STERN FANS
WILL REMEMBER AND VOTE YOUR ASS OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Howard Stern said so.

Clear Channel.

The FCC's Michael Powell.

Refuses to sign the global land mine treaty.

Endangers the life of every living being on earth.

His Secretary of Education, Rod Paige, called the
National Education Association (NEA) a terrorist
organization.

Dismissed his own new jobs forecast promising 2.6
million jobs.

Just listen to him talk.

Just watch what he does.

Credibility gap as wide as the continental divide.

His stupid war in Iraq.

He lost some the world's most precious ancient art
works in one day of inept uncontrolled looting in
Baghdad.

Treasonous blowing of CIA agent's cover in an act of
political revenge and intimidation.

When informed of the blowing of CIA agent's cover, HE
DID NOT ask for staff resignations immediately.

and Afghanistan.

out of the country.

About those weapons of mass destruction...

What is the recipe for "NIGER YELLOW CAKE"?

Donald Rumsfeld.

Richard Perle.

Paul Wolfowitz.

"Bring 'em on."
