BUSH’S HIDDEN AGENDA PART I

Let’s face it.  Bush wants us to disappear.  What?  That’s right.  He wants us to disintegrate.  He hopes we will vanish in thin air, to cease to exist, and that nobody will notice.  In his demented world of arrogant abuse of power, Bush sees the common man, the American “working stiff” as a drag on the pocketbooks of the rich.  So we must go away.  New hordes of Mexican illegals wait in the wings, for us to go “poof” as a once-thriving middle class in America that used to sway elections and elect presidents and congressmen. Is it any great surprise that Bush favored the amnesty bill?   

Maybe there is method to his 92 IQ madness.  India services Microsoft and other firms’ technical support questions by telephone.  Yep.  Straight from New Delhi on the night shift.  India gives us many engineers here at home, too, thanks to job outsourcing.  So who will manufacture our goods?  Enter China.  You want it?  They make it.  It’s all in place.  The Mexican/Canadian Corridor highway is being built, NAFTA flourishes, and China manufactures endless goods, snaring American consumers in a cheap-price, Wal-Mart, daze. The evidence of what is happening is overwhelming.  The working class, along with government-funded programs paid for with taxes is about to disappear.  Watch out, Middle Class, the earth is about to stop turning, and guess who’s getting off? 

How dare the American working class demand a minimum wage!  What gall that Americans would wish for Universal Healthcare for all when trillion-dollar tax cuts for Bush’s “Have More” cronies is more important?  How dare we demand that the federal government come to the aid of victims of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita when that same money is earmarked for Bush to continue his war in Iraq?  Kayne West was out of line when he said, “George Bush doesn’t care about black people.”  West fell short; Bush does not care about poor and working people, either, and the proof is undeniable.  Bush will not say it, but his annual budget cuts beg the question, “How could we even think of providing adequate hospital care for our Veterans?”   

Under Bush’s leadership, inadequate Humvee armor is a testimony to the thousands who were killed or who returned from Iraq, missing one or more legs and/or arms.  We American citizens are the hired help, and Bush and Co. have big plans for us.  We are about to vanish (poof).  Sound like science fiction?  Sure, but not when you consider the bizarre ways in which Bush runs his presidency. 

Does it not seem a bit strange that a caring president would continue to send more troops to Iraq to be killed by roadside bombs when Americans voted in the 2006 election for Bush to end the war and bring our troops home?  Does it seem even stranger that Bush sends more troops in the form of a 30,000 man surge when the army in place could not defeat an inferior enemy in more years than it took to win WW II?  Is mere coincidence that Bush made and continues to make so many mistakes in the Iraq War?  Isn’t it hard to fathom his continuing to defy the American people?  Not at all.  Bush is incompetent.  It is likely that even Bush knows that much.   

So what is his purpose in waging perpetual war and refusing to represent the will of the American people?  It’s simple.  War is money.  His Neocon play book tells him to “stay the course” and call it something else.  He is obsessed with pursuing the mad course of War in Iraq, regardless of whether we are winning or losing or how we feel about it.  Are we agreed on that stark reality?  Doesn’t it look like a duck, quack like a duck and waddle all the way to the Neocon bank?  Is there any other explanation besides money? Look at the untold billions of dollars that stream out of the U.S. Treasury DAILY into the deep pockets of Bush’s base; the Have Mores.  Treasury dollars overflow giant coffers of Halliburton and other war crony corporations, and for each day Bush keeps the Iraq War raging, these pig-like corporations pocket billions more.   

Ever wonder who sold us those $500 hammers?  Wonder no more.  In Bush’s no-bid war corporation country club, you can overcharge the U.S. for $40 million dollars worth of food services, and no one is outraged.  You can lose 9 Billion dollars in cash, and no heads will roll.  It’s all their money, now, and we have become irritants to rub out, to get out of their bustling way as they steal mega millions while Welfare and Social Security drown in Bush’s bathtub.  See, Bush’s job, as depraved as it is, is to keep the bullets flying.  Bush holds America at war and occupying Iraq, against our will.  And billions continue to pour into the pockets of those war corporations Ike warned us about, those glorified crooks who, thanks to Bush and his kind, have taken over our government and are choking democracy down to the dirt.  Bush will never withdraw troops.  There’s no money in it. 

Bush comes from a family with a long line of dealing under the table in illicit profits made on wars.  The following quotations are taken from the New Hampshire Gazette: 

The documents also show that Bush and his colleagues, according to reports from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, tried to conceal their financial alliance with German industrialist Fritz Thyssen, a steel and coal baron who, beginning in the mid-1920s, personally funded Adolf Hitler's rise to power by the subversion of democratic principle and German law. 

Furthermore, the declassified records demonstrate that Bush and his associates, who included E. Roland Harriman, younger brother of American icon W. Averell Harriman, and George Herbert Walker, President Bush's maternal great-grandfather, continued their dealings with the German industrial tycoon for nearly a year after the U.S. entered the war.” 

That’s how the Bushes got their start and grubstake.  Without Grandpa Prescott Bush, perhaps neither Poppy nor George W. Bush could have faded the tuition money to attend Yale and Harvard.  To better understand the beast (pun intended), let us take a look at Bush’s early days as a student at Harvard.   

As usual, Bush had pulled more strings to cut short his Texas Air Guard service while the Viet Nam War raged (which he avoided like the plague).  One day Bush asked his professor, Yoshi Tsurumi why he had shown the class a “commie movie.”  The movie was based upon John Steinbeck’s novel, Grapes of Wrath.  Bush announced that the Great Depression was baloney.  People, Bush said, could find work if they wanted to, and if they were poor, it was because they were lazy.  According to Tsurumi, Bush also boasted about how well he was connected, and how his Dad got him out of the draft.  In addition Bush managed to breeze by many legitimate applicants to the safe haven of the Texas Air Guard while the Viet Nam War raged.  Want more?  Texas Air Guard Commander Rose gave Bush a direct commission.  No boot camp, no ROTC necessary, just raise your hand and (poof) I are an officer.  Years later in an interview, Tsurumi said, “All Harvard Business School students want to become president of a company one day,” Tsurumi said. “I remember saying (to Bush), if you become president of a company someday, may God help your customers and employees.”  Little did Tsurumi know that Bush would become president of the United States, and that now, Americans and nations of the world would have to fear him. 

From his early beginnings, Bush never cared about people.  He just never cared.  And his hidden agenda as Governor and President of the United States for the last several years offers rich, unwavering proof.
