1) The fact that many don't like him, but don't know why is largely due to the media's portrayal of him. Comedians and TV personalities have pictured him as dumb, therefore causing Americans to think lowly of him as well, causing them to not like him. Even so, nobody's going to cite that as a reason.
2) I really don't believe that Jeb Bush caused GWB to be President. It wasn't Bush's final call. There were sketchy parts on Gore's part too, such as a supposedly missing ballot box that was full of supposed Gore votes found in a supporter's garage that many wanted counted. The insinuation that the Butterfly Ballot is confusing is, quite simply, ridiculous - it had been used for years without issue, and if a person can't follow an arrow and put a stick into a hole to mark their vote, then quite frankly, they probably don't have the mental capacity to have a voice in who should be the next President. As for the illuminati and masons, there has been no proof that either organization has influenced things. Show me proof and not mere speculation, and I might be more inclined to listen to you.
3) I agree that certain measures taken by the government recently make me nervous. That being said, most of these have been accomplished by Congress, not Bush, and we can't fault him for how Congress votes. Further, the much-talked about Democratic congress has done nothing to change matters in this regard (or, really, in any regard).
4) This last paragraph is rather unintelligible, but it appears to accuse Bush of subliminal messaging? There has been no proof that subliminal messaging is anything more than a hoax. Trust me, if we were living in a fascist government, we wouldn't even be able to have this conversation. |
I don't really want to respond to your first 3 oppositions, as they don't relate to the thread... and I have proved through basically all of my posts to take these off-topic, something I will work on.
As to the fourth, I know it is rather unintelligible. It took to free writing. It came to the conclusion that the American system and American ideals themselves allows for fascism to become the form of government if the techniques do not break any of the 'rules'. And that fascism is then American, and that there is nothing wrong with it. I'm going to start a thread on that question, in better form than I presented here. Because I sincerely need to be proven wrong... otherwise I am no longer American.
