Post by: Sassafras on October 21, 2006, 12:05:12 PM

(This was first written on Jan 1, 2006 on our Proboards site.)

These Issues are worthy of discussion on the MisFiT Forum concerning Bush and his Administration and the general media coverage during 2005:

• The war on Terrorism
• The war in Iraq
• The abandoned/halted hunt for Osama Bin Laden
• The arrest and trial of Saddam Hussein
• Weapons of Mass Destruction
• WMD in Iraq
• WMD NOT in Iraq
• WMD in Iran
• Future Iran Crisis/War
• Troop Removal
• Democracy in Iraq
• Patriot Act
• American Torture Camps
• Gas Prices
• The Economy - The Rich are Richer and the Poor are Poorer!!!  When is it time for the distance between the "Haves" and the "Have-Nots" to get closer rather than farther?
• Immigration
• Border Control: Illegal Aliens
• Birthright Citizenship
• Border Control: Fear of Terrorism
• Fear - Using Fear to Rule the Country
• President Bush or King Bush?
• The Bush Administration - Evil: As a Whole and some as Individuals
• Vise President thingy Cheney - Evil Incarnate and "Worst than Bush"!!! [ Article of Support: http://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/HL0512/S00298.htm ]

• Tom DeLay
• Jack Abramoff
• NSA - National Security Agency
• Eavesdropping in the U.S. WITHOUT A WARRANT
• The New York Times Leaking of Vital Security Information - Pros and Cons: Doing What is Right..., but at What Cost?  Does it Really Affect our Nation's Security or does it Affect the Secretiveness of Illegal Actions of the Bush Administration?  Americans don't seem to want to know the truth so they remain "sheep" for the ruling Administration, except for certain MisFiTs of the World:

  ...Executive Editor Bill Keller said that " 'we've got to do the right thing.' . . . It would have been easier to come up with all sorts of explanations of why we should walk away."
