You can't expect a normal outcome if you marry your sister.
"Of the 246 fundraisers identified by The Post as Pioneers in the 2000 campaign, 104 -- or slightly more than 40 percent -- ended up in a job or an appointment.
23 Pioneers were named as ambassadors and three were named to the Cabinet:
Donald L. Evans at the Commerce Department, Elaine L. Chao at Labor and Tom Ridge at Homeland Security. At least 37 Pioneers were named to postelection transition teams, which helped place political appointees into key regulatory positions affecting industry."
Cabinet positions have
always been geared to some degree by politics. But,
your assignment of so many critical positions within
the government was driven by fund raising ability and
loyalty; competence was a distant third.
Inbreeding brought us some obvious failures like
Iraq, Iran, North Korea, Somalia, Venezuela, Ecuador,
Palestine, Lebanon, Abu Gharib, Guantanimo, Katrina
and the Intelligence reorganization.
Your incestuous relationship with pioneers and
rangers who contributed heavily towards your
reelection campaign became the select pool for
critical positions within the government including
ambassadorships. Whereas your father and Clinton
understood the skills required to handle the "dance"
involved in negotiations you chose to give your
ill-equipped appointees full reign.
FEMA, NASA, the UN and
the CIA are all recent examples of incompetent
management by Bush inbreeding.
You have successfully diminished the status and soft
power of the United States in every continent. And
the world is shutting you out. The reason for the
cold shoulder is the way America is perceived, thanks
to your administration.
The United States is generally treated like a rich,
rude, and loud arrogant Uncle who talks over everyone
else and chews with his mouth open at family
gatherings.
Most of Europe, Japan and Australian look at us as
someone you put up with because he is rich and
powerful but they don't want to let him drive because
he doesn't believe in laws or good manners. They keep
him at arms reach and know not to trust him, but give
him cocktail-smiles when they are at the same party.
China looks at us like a horny drunken sailor on
leave who is always in search of cheap whores, that
China keeps in line with an iron fist.
Russia looks at us like a fellow country club
braggart full of himself who feels he is owed every
advantage because of his wealth.
South America look at us as a rich landowner who
allows them to live in their countries as long as
they do as they are told.
India look at us as a technically challenged end user
that believes everyone else is dumber than they are.
Much of the Mid-East looks at us as the world's
tterrorist who doesn't hesitate to kill them up and
take their resources whenever they want to. Their
blood is of less value than anyone elses.
The people within Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Egypt, and
Jordan look at us as the devil's own offspring
brought to the earth to test their faith in Allah.
Saudi Arabia Jordan and Egyptian leaders look at the
U.S. as a forgetful bodyguard who expects access to
their resources.
Israel looks at us as the oversized little brother
who inherited a huge trust fund but needs to be told
what to think and do and whom to beat up.
Korea look at us like a bully itching to kill them
who doesn't mind if their poor relatives do without,
as long as they have enough rocks to throw at us to
keep us at bay.
Africa looks at us as the street drug pusher with the
big car and fancy clothes who uses his influence and
money to take anything of value not nailed down but
content to sit and watch African factions kill rape
each other as though it is a spectator sport.
Canada look at us like a big brother who knows better
and wants them to cut their hair, quit wearing
sandals, stop living in the commune and find Jesus.
Those are a lot but not all of the perceptions we
have. None of them are positive. Most responses
ranges from "tolerate" to "kill" Americans because of
these perceptions.
Like Rummy said you can't go to war with the army you
want so you go to war with the army you got.
You refused to retain and find the best and the
brightest people to deal with other nations; instead
you decided to interface with the world's nations
through loyal but mostly incompetent ambassadors.
This is just one more indication which solidifies the
notion that your ignorance and, or the lack of
appreciation for the complexity of foreign policy is
almost as vast as your arrogance and self
righteousness.
Your disdain for foreign affairs, the UN, and all
international agreements, Cheney's neo-con version of
how the world should be plus the incompetents you
appointed to the State department and as ambassadors,
answers the question why there are foreign policy
disasters as far as the eye can see.

On behalf

Thank you again for taking the time to

When the going gets tough, the tough go to a pig roast of course.
It really sucks being you.
Your famous "hands off" policy has done wonders. Early in your presidency you allowed Israel to have unfetter reign over the palestinians, allowing Israel to kill who ever they wanted whenever they wanted. After 9/11 they stepped up their efforts of state-sponsored terrorism over their Arab neighbors. The world was suitably distracted watching the death, and destruction you were causing in Iraq, so no one noticed the atrocities Israel was committing.
Now you have a good party happening. Israel is fighting a two front war. And they told Condi to stuff it when she asked Israel to restrain their response.
It's not that you will do anything about it. You don't have the guts to stand up to Israel, and everyone knows it.
Italy is still looking to indict CIA agents for kidnapping a Muslim cleric off the streets in Milan. What kind of bungling Bush-supporters did you get in there?
Rove was booed when he met with Hispanics from the National Council of La Raza's annual conference in Los Angeles, but somehow they couldn't relate to a rich white man who only wants them pick grapes, join the army, and vote Republican. It was odd to hear him speak about family values.
Valerie Plame just sued your buddy Cheney, Rove, and others for outing her as a CIA spy. I can imagine the morale in the CIA must be crappy ever since you falsely blamed them for bad intelligence on Iraq.
Now you are in Russia with your new nemesis Pooty Poot.
While in Germany instead of addressing the major escalation of violence in the Mid-East with Israel, you chose to tout a pig roast with German Chancellor Angela Merkel. It is not a book about a pet goat, but it's good enough to show the world how disconnected you still are
.
While in Germany you were such a chicken-shit about what people may ask, you dropped a planned "Town Hall meeting" after you were not allowed to pre-approve questions although you were granted the restrictions you asked for on the kinds of people that could attend.
Where has our macho president in his flight suit? Suddenly, you are spouting about negotiating with North Korea, apologizing for declaring "Bring them on," Have you lost your manhood? Will you need your pants refitted to incorporate your reduced testicles?
Well, have a good time with pooty poot. I am sure he is ready to have you lecture him about democracy. You have a real model of democracy going for you here at home. It is the best damn democracy you can buy.
