GW’s Resume

I’m sure this is making the rounds already with mentions in Boing Boing. Still, it’s stunning to see it all listed in one place isn’t it? GW’s Resume.

I’m not comparing him to anyone else. The list pretty much speaks for itself. Holding up someone else’s list doesn’t make this any better. How did this happen? How did we get a convicted criminal who brought in a collection of convicted criminals and turned the Constitution on its ear and drove our economy into the toilet? How can anyone still support him? Do they not care? Do they still think he’s better than the alternative? Do they think he’s right? Do they just not know?

How can we make sure this doesn’t happen again? How do we make sure we know all we need to know about a candidate before we have to vote for him? How do we filter the crap of campaigns and the marketing to get to the meat and make an informed decision? More debates? Take the money out of campaigns?

I’m tired of politics as marketing. I want a refund. This is not the administration the American people bought. This isn’t even the GW I thought we were getting when he was sworn in. Maybe I was naive, but I thought he was earnest and meant well. I no longer think he’s earnest or means well. I no longer think he’s dumb. I think he’s mean. I think he cares very little for the average American, and only panders to the conservative base as much as he needs to to get his way.

Are you registered to vote? I am.

So… I had gelato at lunch. It was yummy.
