Speaketh the President

I know you've been hearing a lot about the new Medicare prescription drug plan, particularly if you have a Mom or Grandmother on the damned thing. Well here you go. Juanita has our dear leader explaining it clearly and concisely in his own words so everyone can understand it.


"Because the -- all which is on the table begins to address the big cost drivers. For example, how benefits are calculated, for example, is on the table. Whether or not benefits rise based upon wage increases or price increases. There's a series of parts of the formula that are being considered. And when you couple that, those different cost drivers, affecting those -- changing those with personal accounts, the idea is to get what has been promised more likely to be -- or closer delivered to that has been promised."


There ya go. Simple isn't it?

When it comes to Jack Abramoff, Bush has put his lying muscle into high gear...check this whopper:

"I'm not, frankly, all that familiar with a lot that's going on over at Capitol Hill, but it seems like to me that [Abramoff] was an equal money dispenser, that he was giving money to people in both political parties."


Abramoff never gave one penny to Democrats, people. His whole operation with Tom Delay was the K Street project. K Street is set up to eliminate any Democrats holding any position at any lobbying firm.

The Abramoff scandal is one hundred percent Republican. It's not the Lobbyists, though you may be surprised to hear me say that.

No, in fact, it is the scheme that ambitious Republican creeps, like Newt Gingrich and Tom DeLay, set in place piece by piece to enrich themselves by setting up the "Will Legislate for Money" operation where the old principle of "One person, one vote" has been buried under the new K Street version, "$100,000.00, one piece of legislation that totally favors your gambling operation or Multinational corporation."

    Ok here is some interesting facts for you:

    Bob Perry, who is on Healey's donor list, is a huge financial supporter of the Rebublican party and it also shows he gave $165000 to Delay and another $105000 to the Texas Association of Business, thus which was part of the investigation.....lol

    Here is the news link:

    Altogether Perry has handed over close to $1 million to the Republican party in Texas through a group called Texans for a Republican Majority which is an offshoot of Tom DeLay?s Americans for a Republican Majority.


    Just google this dipshit for more info. This is why Healey refused to intervene in the Delay case, cause they have a mutual interest.

    Now we know why Ft Bend County District Attorney refused to take the Tom Delay case. He was paid not to. Seems to be a common thread with Delay.
