The first president in U.S. history to have almost all 50 states simultaneously suffer massive financial crisis. Spent the U.S. surplus and effectively bankrupted the U.S. Treasury. Shattered the record for the largest annual deficit in U.S. history. Most private bankruptcies filed in any 12-month period during presidency. All-time record for most foreclosures in a 12-month period during presidency. All-time record for the biggest drop in the history of the U.S. stock market during presidency. In the first year in office, more than 2 million Americans lost their jobs and that trend continues every month, leaving us with higher than ever unemployment. Presided over the biggest energy crisis in U.S. history and refused to intervene when corruption involving the oil industry was revealed. Presided over the highest gasoline prices in U.S. history and refused to use national reserves as past presidents have done. Entered into office with the strongest economy in U.S. history. Every single economic category has turned downward -- all in less than two years. --- All-time U.S. and world record-holder for receiving the most corporate campaign donations. Largest lifetime campaign contributor Kenneth Lay, former CEO of Enron Corporation, presided over the largest corporate bankruptcy fraud in U.S. history. The Republican Party used Enron private jets and corporate attorneys to assure success during the U.S. Supreme Court hearings after the 2000 election. Set the record for most campaign fund-raising trips by a U.S. president. Spent more money on polls and focus groups than any president in U.S. history. (But dismissed worldwide protests as the kind of irrelevant feedback that one might get from a focus group) Set the record for the fewest press conferences of any president since the advent of television. Signed more laws and executive orders effectively amending or ignoring the Constitution than any president in history. Have removed more freedoms and civil liberties for Americans than any president in U.S. history. Removed more checks and balances, and has had the least amount of congressional oversight, than any presidential administration in U.S. history. Created the largest governmental department bureaucracy in the history of the United States. Appointed more convicted criminals to administration than any president in U.S. history. Changed U.S. policy to allow convicted criminals to be awarded government contracts. Set an all-time record for the number of administration appointees who violated U.S. law by not selling their huge personal investments in corporations that bid for U.S. contracts. Members of cabinet are the richest of any administration in U.S. history. The "poorest millionaire," Condoleeza Rice, has a Chevron oil tanker named after her. Allowed non-compete oil contracts to go to VP's company (where he is still employed, but on "deferred compensation") and won't answer to anyone about it. Made this presidency the most secretive and unaccountable of any in U.S. history. --- Set the the all-time record for most days on vacation in any one year period. After taking-off the entire month of August 2001, presided over the worst security failure in U.S. history. Has successfully prevented ANY public investigation into the security failure on 9-11. Bush family is very close with the Saudi Royal family -- has been for years -- and so the pages in the report on 9-11 that might put the Saudis in a bad light have been excised. Failed to capture the anthrax killer who tried to murder congressional leaders at the U.S. Capitol Building. There are no leads and no credible suspects. Attacked and overtook two countries, promised to rebuild them, and has not yet done so (at least, not without another US$87 billion). Failed to fulfill pledge to capture Osama Bin Laden, "dead or alive." Failed to capture Saddam Hussein. First president in U.S. history to order a pre-emptive attack and the military occupation of a sovereign nation, and did so against the judgment of the United Nations and the world community. All-time record for most people worldwide to simultaneously protest against in public venues (15 million people), shattering the record for protest against any person in the history of humankind. U.S. troops are being killed, and thousands of Iraqis have been killed, under the lie of WMD components. Blame for this lie has been placed on the British and the CIA, which, coincidentally, his father used to lead. Supports development of a "Tactical Bunker Buster" nuclear weapon, a WMD. Cut health care benefits for war veterans and supports a cut in duty benefits for active-duty troops and their families -- in wartime. --- Dissolved more international treaties than any president in U.S. history. The first president in U.S. history to have the United Nations remove the U.S. from the Human Rights Commission. The first president in U.S. history to have the United Nations remove the U.S. from the Elections Monitoring Board. Withdrew the U.S. from the World Court of Law. Refused to allow inspectors access to U.S. prisoners of war (detainees) and thereby has refused to abide by the Geneva Convention. The first president in history to refuse United Nations election inspectors (during the 2002 U.S. election). Actively working on a policy of "disengagement," contributing to the most hostile Israel-Palestine relations in at least 30 years. The first to have a majority of Europeans (71%) view this presidency as the biggest threat to world peace and security. The first president in history to have the people of South Korea feel more threatened by the U.S. than by their immediate neighbor, North Korea. --- AWOL from the National Guard (yet stood proud in a flight suit on the deck of the USS Abraham Lincoln on May 1 2003). All records of tenure as Governor of Texas are now in Bush Sr's library, sealed, and unavailable for public view. All records of SEC investigations into insider trading or bankrupt companies are sealed in secrecy and unavailable for public view. All records or minutes from meetings that he, or his Vice-President, attended regarding public energy policy are sealed in secrecy and unavailable for public review. ~ Please... consider the experience of George W. Bush when voting in 2004. ~ Accomplishments of President George W. Bush |
