GEORGE W. BUSH
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue
Washington, DC 20520

EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE:

Law Enforcement:
I was arrested in Kennebunkport, Maine, in 1976 for driving under the influence of alcohol. I pled guilty, paid a fine, and had my driver's license suspended for 30 days. My Texas driving record has been "lost" and is not available.

Military:
I joined the Texas Air National Guard and went AWOL. I refused to take a drug test or answer any questions about my drug use. By joining the Texas Air National Guard, I was able to avoid combat duty in Vietnam.

College:
I graduated from Yale University with a low C average. I was a cheerleader.

PAST WORK EXPERIENCE:
I ran for U.S. Congress and lost. I began my career in the oil business in Midland, Texas, in 1975. I bought an oil company, but couldn't find any oil in Texas. The company went bankrupt shortly after I sold all my stock. I bought the Texas Rangers baseball team in a sweetheart deal that took land using taxpayer money. With the help of my father and our friends in the oil industry (including Enron CEO Ken Lay), I was elected governor of Texas.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF TEXAS:

- I changed Texas pollution laws to favor power and oil companies, making Texas the most polluted state in the Union. During my tenure, Houston replaced Los Angeles as the most smog-ridden city in America.

- I cut taxes and bankrupted the Texas treasury to the tune of billions in borrowed money.

- I set the record for the most executions by any governor in American history.

- With the help of my brother, the governor of Florida, and my father's appointments to the Supreme Court, I became President after losing by over 500,000 votes.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS PRESIDENT:

- I am the first President in U.S. history to enter office with a criminal record.

- I invaded and occupied two countries at a continuing cost of over one billion dollars per week.

- I spent the U.S. surplus and effectively bankrupted the U.S. Treasury.

- I shattered the record for the largest annual deficit in U.S. history.

- I set an economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any 12-month period.

- I set the all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12-month period.

- I set the all-time record for the biggest drop in the history of the U.S. stock market. In my first year in office, over 2 million Americans lost their jobs and that trend continues every month.

- I'm proud that the members of my cabinet are the richest of any administration in U.S. history. My "poorest millionaire," Condoleeza Rice, has a Chevron oil tanker named after her.

- I set the record for most campaign fund-raising trips by a U.S. President.

- I am the all-time U.S. and world record-holder for receiving the most corporate campaign donations.

- My largest lifetime campaign contributor, and one of my best friends, Kenneth Lay, presided over the largest corporate bankruptcy fraud in U.S. History, Enron.

- My political party used Enron private jets and corporate attorneys to assure my success with the U.S. Supreme Court during my election decision.

- I have protected my friends at Enron and Halliburton against investigation or prosecution. More time and money was spent investigating the Monica Lewinsky affair than has been spent investigating one of the biggest corporate rip-offs in history. I presided over the biggest energy crisis in U.S. history and refused to intervene when corruption involving the oil industry was revealed.

- I presided over the highest gasoline prices in U.S. history.

- I changed the U.S. policy to allow convicted criminals to be awarded government contracts.

- I appointed more convicted criminals to administration than any President in U.S. history.

- I created the Ministry of Homeland Security, the largest bureaucracy in the history of the United States government.

- I've broken more international treaties than any President in U.S. history.

- I am the first President in U.S. history to have the United Nations remove the U.S. from the Human Rights Commission.

- I withdrew the U.S. from the World Court of Law.

- I refused to allow inspector's access to U.S. "prisoners of war" detainees and thereby have refused to abide by the Geneva Convention.

- I am the first President in history to refuse United Nations election inspectors (during the 2002 U.S. election).

- I set the record for fewest numbers of press conferences of any President since the advent of television.

- I set the all-time record for most days on vacation in any one-year period. After takingoff the entire month of August, I presided over the worst security failure in U.S. history.

- I garnered the most sympathy ever for the U.S. after the World Trade Center attacks and less than a year later made the U.S. the most hated country in the world, the largest failure of diplomacy in world history.

- I have set the all-time record for most people worldwide to simultaneously protest me in public venues (15 million people), shattering the record for protests against any person in the history of mankind.

- I am the first President in U.S. history to order an unprovoked, pre-emptive attack and the military occupation of a sovereign nation. I did so against the will of the United Nations, the majority of U.S. citizens, and the world community.

- I have cut health care benefits for war veterans and support a cut in duty benefits for active duty troops and their families in wartime.

- In my State of the Union Address, I lied about our reasons for attacking Iraq and then blamed the lies on our British friends.

- I am the first President in history to have a majority of Europeans (71%) view my presidency as the biggest threat to world peace and security.

- I am supporting development of a nuclear "Tactical Bunker Buster," a WMD.

- I have so far failed to fulfill my pledge to bring Osama Bin Laden to justice.

RECORDS AND REFERENCES:

-All records of my tenure as governor of Texas are now in my father's library, sealed and unavailable for public view.

- All records of SEC investigations into my insider trading and my bankrupt companies are sealed in secrecy and unavailable for public view.

- All records or minutes from meetings that I, or my Vice-President, attended regarding public energy policy are sealed in secrecy and unavailable for public review.

A friend in college would vote for his friends. He said that every write-in vote is counted and recorded, thus leaving a "record" for his friends' posterity. Anyone know if there's any truth to this or was my friend talking out of his posterior?

Thanks!

Pulling people out of the ditc...
Wow, what bravery you have to post this anonymously. Sounds like you took much of your incorrect rhetoric straight from the DNC. Just wondering if you do much thinking on your own.

FOr all his foibles, at least you have a man that is much more like middle America than anyone the Dems are pushing. I prefer Bush over the Kerry/Edwards ticket anyday. Let's see, Kerry came from monay, then married into more. Currently owns 6 houses worth an estimated 24 million dollars. John Edwards has a personal fortune of over $100 million made from suing businesses. Wow, these guys sound just like my next door neighbors. Let me vote for them.

I'd refute 90% of your allegations (must be using Michael Moore as a reference) but don't feel like wasting my time. It is obvious you don't believe truth...

… the most executions by any governor in American history. HEAR, HEAR!

I am the first President in U.S. history to enter office with a criminal record. BUT CERTAINLY NOT THE FIRST CRIMINAL

I set an economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any 12-month period. CONTINUING THE 8-YEAR “CLINTON SPIKE.”’

I set the all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12-month period. AND PERSONALLY READ THE LEGAL DESCRIPTION FOR EVERY SINGLE ONE ON THE COURTHOUSE STEPS.

I set the all-time record for the biggest drop in the history of the U.S. stock market. NOT PERCENTAGE-WISE.

… members of my cabinet are the richest of any administration in U.S. history. My "poorest millionaire," Condoleeza Rice, has a Chevron oil tanker named after her. I’M PROUD, TOO.

I presided over the highest gasoline prices in U.S. history. NOT IN INFLATION ADJUSTED-TERMS. THAT HONOR BELONGS TO JIMMY CARTER.

I created the Ministry of Homeland Security, the largest bureaucracy in the history of the United States government. WRONG AGAIN, THE IRS IS THE LARGEST ‘MINISTRY.’

I am the first President in U.S. history to have the United Nations remove the U.S. from the Human Rights Commission. AND DO YOU KNOW WHO’S STILL ON IT?!?!

I set the all-time record for most days on vacation in any one-year period. WRONG AGAIN, WITH RONALD REAGAN TAKING A FULL YEAR OFF OVER THE COURSE OF 8 YEARS.

… the world, the largest failure of diplomacy in world history. NEVILLE CHAMBERLAIN’S ‘PEACE IN OUR TIME’ APPEASEMENT OF THE NAZIS PROBABLY IS A STRONGER CANDIDATE FOR THIS HONOR.

I am the first President in U.S. history to order an unprovoked, pre-emptive attack and the military occupation of a sovereign nation. I did so against the will of the United Nations, the majority of U.S. citizens, and the world community. ASSUMING THAT YOU IGNORE LBJ’S GULF OF TONKIN INCIDENT, THAT STARTED THE VIETNAM WAR IN EARNEST, THE SINKING THE MAINE, THE MEXICAN WAR, THE THEFT OF PANAMA FROM COLUMBIA, ETC. ETC.

These are the same wasteful, abysmal posters of no substance, who are intellectually unable to offer any real bank-related, substantive input to any subject matter on this entire website. Like a child needing constant attention, they act out and resort to this childishness -- not occasionally, but constantly. They initiate the post anonymously, then jump in and "complement" their original message as if by chance they stumbled upon the site.

Anyone can go to Google and format a vague and fabricated background format for any well-know person. Now show us how smart you really are; go back to 1976 like you did for George Bush and tell us what John Kerry did. We know he was in Vietnam for 6 months in the late 1960s; now give us a point-by-point on his 30-year record of substantive accomplishments since 1976.

But that's just it: They really aren't true anonymous posters, as in unregistered; they are the same registered posters who comment as registered posters, then come in anonymously as they see fit.

They're unable to sustain a logical, well-written debate; so when they come above the radar as registered posters they lament being attacked, then they go back and post anonymously and contribute the childishness as seen above in the beginning post.

And what was the point of this? We all know the man had a drinking problem and he has made no secret of it. So somebody has film of him while he was drunk, how is that relevent now. Believe me I am not Bush supporter but this type of stuff is just childish.
