George Bush Really Grinds My Gears
How has George Bush offended me? Let me count the ways.
The State of tdaxp Nation
- Harriet Miers -- refusing to win the battle for the courts, bizarre religious tests (or maybe not), etc
- No Child Left Behind -- big government solution to a big government problem
- Wasiting FBI resources on pornography and prostitution -- why fight terrorists when we can fight freedom of contract and socialize virtue?
- No doing what we should have done in Iraq - give money, guns, and air space protection to the Iraqi National Congress, Dawa, SCIRI, KDP, PUK, and letting those players run their own country
- Doing nothing to free East Arabia
- Fighting states rights and freedom by going after Oregon's Assisted Suicide Law
- Don't forget fighting the losing drug 'war'
- Not raising gas taxes
- Not joining with Newt Gingrich to defend operations in Iraq
- Flubbing progress on social security -- or meaningful social security reform -- again

I didn't know about East Arabia. Thanks for the education.
Can we add the totally out of control federal spending and big government growth?
Or even worse, the betrayal of our ideals and our long-term interests in Darfur, where he's got the CIA playing buddy buddy with the same Sudanese intel types who continue to orchestrate the mass murder in Darfur and the proliferation of Arab raiders who are nearly managing to destablize the whole region on their own?

Eddie,
Thank you for stopping by. I bookmarked your blog. It is an honor to have you as a commentator :)
I learned about East Arabia from An End to Evil by Frum and Perle, though you'll see MSM accounts of the horrors (no legal cemetaries?!?!?) from time-to-time (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1400061946?v=glance).
We can definitely add the size of the government. Stratfor had a very balanced piece on that (http://junkpolitics.blogspirit.com/archive/2005/10/06/stratfor-geopolitical-intelligence-report.html).
I wonder what we are doing in the Sudan. One gets the feeling that the country is weak enough so we can bully it very effectively when we want, so we let other things slide...
