THE TEXAS TERRORISTS

And they did it the same way too. The ad comes from the RNC thus Bush can claim innocence. Taking cover and avoiding responsibility for his lies and dirty tricks is his hallmark.

Usually one thinks of terrorists as those who strap on a bomb and kill themselves and others, or who fire a rocket at a planeload of passengers. However there are also industrial terrorists, environmental terrorists, corporate terrorists and emotional terrorists. All are bullies; all are all dangerous.

Ever since 9/11 the Texas Terrorists led by Cheney/Bush and his brain, Rove, have induced terror among the citizens of the U.S. by ratcheting up the terrorist threat with speeches, color codes and reminders of the country's 9/11 vulnerability.

Now they are inserting the fear factor with a vengeance into politics with this ad. Karl Rove promised months ago that they would use the war on terrorism to win the election. Essentially this ad accuses anyone, who criticizes Bush, with being soft on or supporting terrorism.

Their ad also boldly and unashamedly uses a speech by Bush that was replete with lies while it castigates the Democratic candidates and anyone else who criticizes Bush.

These Texas Terrorists also have precipitated global terrorism. On the pretext that Iraq was a threat to the US, they introduced global terrorism by invading Iraq and threatening other Islamic nations. All of this to serve the special interests of corporate fat cats.

Their invasion reduced much of Iraq to rubble, killed and maimed many Iraqi and led to a huge increase in the ranks of Islamic terrorists.

Initially, they set global biological terrorism loose by dumping the Kyoto Treaty, then added to it with the chemicals released into the atmosphere by their incessant bombing of Afghanistan and Iraq.

Like the dirty birds that foul their own nest, these environmental terrorists have seriously raised the level of pollution in the US. They drastically cut environmental controls which are polluting the air, flora and fauna in North Eastern states and Canada as well as the streams and rivers.

The Bush administration has allowed the research and development of several new nukes and allowed further damage to the ozone layer by the spraying of an ozone destroying chemical in Florida. They have made the military immune from the Protected Species Act.

The Texas Terrorists have mounted attacks on the vulnerable elderly. The recent Medicare bill will not benefit seniors for twoyears and by then costs will have risen so any monetary advantage is nil. They have denied family planning to thousands of Third World women.

Seniors are anxious over changes to Medicare. They do not understand the bill. The TT's have made them apprehensive and afraid. To the elderly, this cruel attack is a horrible form of terror.

Long before Bush stole the election, the country knew from his record as governor of Texas that he had little concern for either truth or the environment. Two writers from Texas who knew him well, Molly Ivins and Paul Begala both wrote books about him to warn us.

How could anyone think, in light of his terrorist's words and deeds, that he is a nice guy? How can anyone trust their safety to him? He holds this country in thrall by intimidation, lies and threats. He has sacrificed our military on the alter of special interests. http://www.angelfire.com/creep/gwbush/remindus.html

Ironic that the very law, the Patriot Act, that was crafted to defeat terrorism, protects the Texas Terrorists.
