Well I believe that the dropping of World Trade Center buildings were a product of the Bush administration. A perfect con to scare the American public into giving away their tax dollars for oil in the Iraq. Case in point - where the H-E-L-L are those weapons of mass destruction? Then we add in the number of or lack of indictments against the Enron folks (Bush's friends). A start of the stock market taking a pounding. Many of the sheep in America forget Bush senior and those S&L bailouts. Largest price tag by the tax payer to that day. And why - because the Republicans in the late 80's wanted deregulation of the banking industry. Anybody say - deregulation. Geez what has caused the airline and our current utilities to really serve the public quite well. Then I read where Jeb Bush - oh yea the governor of Florida was indicted on Medicare and S&L banking fraud charges and somehow he was elected as the governor of Florida - a 100% thief. Now I hear where First Energy of Ohio in Akron, OH - you know - the one that is at the center of the current blackout because of faulty maintenance. Well who did they give a lot of money to - Ah Dick Cheney and George Bush. No wonder I didn't see our great politician from Ohio - Bob Taft (a republican) on TV about the blackout. And where was George Bush on the blackout. Yep - it keeps on smelling.

Perhaps:
The stench of political corruption reeking from under the Bushes?
Ngungu'taota, Tutskwa I'qatsi,
>In 2003, the Bush administration, effectively stopped completion of a decade long project, named Mni Wiconi.. The ambitious project was designed to pipe treated water from the Missouri River to the arid Pine Ridge Reservation. Mni Wiconi, which means "water is life," would have brought water to what has been historically America's most economically depressed county. Many of the 35,000 people on Pine Ridge do not have running water and many of the wells on the reservation are polluted by septic system percolation or contaminated by nitrates. It is not uncommon for many of the Lakota People on Pine Ridge to get their water delivered by truck or transported in jugs.
As the pipeline was laid across the arid landscape of South Dakota, it brought water to Indian as well as non-Indian residents. The project was nearing completion in 2002, an election year. George W. Bush hand-picked John Thune in 2002 to unseat incumbent Senator Tim Johnson (D-SD). Huge amounts of money were pumped into the race, the most expensive in South Dakota history. In an effort to fight the Republican money machine, a grassroots effort to register first-time voters was undertaken that yeided large numbers of new voters in the Indian communities of South Dakota. Pine Ridge voters voted in particularly high numbers and overwhelmingly in favor of Johnson over his Republican opponent. The "Indian vote" propelled Johnson to the slimmest of victories, 524 votes. Thune's loss did not go unnoticed by the Bush White House. Within months, the Bush administration, breaking previous promises and committments, cut funding to Mni Wiconi that stopped work on the project just as it was reaching the borders of Pine Ridge. Without access to a dependable supply of fresh water, Pine Ridge has little hope of economic development. Stopping the project just as it nears it's destination is a cut of the cruelest sort, one that perpetuates conditions normally associated with third world nations and long suffered by the people of Pine Ridge.
George W. Bush wears his Christian faith on his sleeve and proudly describes himself as a "compassionate conservative." I urge you to call the White House and remind the President that exacting political revenge on America's most impoverished people is neither Christian nor compassionate....
