9. I believe he has at least two goals in mind.
Edited on Tue Sep-30-08 07:48 PM by Uncle Joe
1. Damage the Democratic Party's primary strong suit this November by creating a damned if you do, damned if you don't support him situation. If they support him, the issue of tying McSame and the Republicans in general to Bush policies will be weakened. If they don't this economic mess created by Cheney/Bush's corrupt, incompetence will be laid at their doorstop. Meanwhile Bush plays good cop bad cop with the majority of the Republican Party allowing them to separate them selves from his radioactive ass.

2. Wealth distribution to the wealthiest, aka Bush's base at the expense of the lower to upper middle income class, either through the bailout or by creating fear, and uncertainty causing many average Americans to panic, and sell out of the market. again while Bush's Base buys in. I'm not suggesting there aren't serious fundamental economic problems, I'm suggesting Bush has and is magnifying them for personal and political gain.

This is the same pRresident which suggested after 9/11 the people should go shopping, thereby putting them selves more in debt, under his guidance mortgage guidelines were reduced to the point of putting many people with marginal credit in homes as gas prices soared over eight years, giving a tax break to the wealthiest, aka; Bush's Base, while also waging a voluntary, premeditated, unnecessary, expensive war with Iraq, thus turning surplus in to debt and weakening the dollar. I believe these series of events magnified the foreclosure crisis as inflation pushed many people living near the edge over the cliff. If you look at the big picture of his term, his strategy has been consistently intended to weaken the government and distribute wealth from the vast majority of the American People to the wealthiest, aka Bush's Base.

Thanks for the thread, malaise.

10. He doesn't have any idea. Like always, he just said what was on the teleprompter.
