All things related to George Bush have a formula that includes taking over, reducing or removing resources, asserting perfect performance while denying any wrong doing or incompetence. This is all done for one purpose... to make money. When Bank Boston was taken over by Bank of America, shortly after GW became president, the facilities and ATMs quickly went down hill in terms of cleanliness and security. Bank of America is owned by corporations that feature Bush and other administration investors. The biggest problem with this administration is CONFLICT OF INTERREST. This has been the problem from day one. As long as these republicans remain in power we can expect to be asked to do more and be given less until we have the rights and privileges equivalent to the surfs of the Dark Ages.(Q Monty Python: Help! Help! I'm being repressed!)
This formula can be applied to the War on Terror with stark accurracy. Send in troops, deny them proper supplies and equipment, implement completely retarded policies, claim victory, grant contracts to companies owned by Bush or other high officials of the administration (Q Halliburton... )
The Bush administration is not into public service, but self service and we are paying the price.
