Brian,

Your man Bush seems to have an unusual view of the Constitution-

"There ought to be limits to freedom. We're aware of the site, and this guy is just a garbage man."

— Bush, commenting on the website www.gwbush.com


georgebush2000.com

Interesting views on religion:

"It's not the governor's role to decide who goes to heaven. I believe that God decides who goes to heaven, not George W Bush."

— George W. Bush


How about education:

AUSTIN, TEXAS -- Teacher pay during the first Bush term fell from 36th to 38th in national rankings. Overall teachers compensation fell to 51st. All this while Texas has been awash in funds from a strong economy.

Ethics:

AUSTIN, TEXAS -- Texas law prohibits a sitting governor from taking campaign contributions during the legislative session in order to prevent corruption. But that is precisely what Bush did. He accepted $300,000 in two months from Texas chemical and utility interests who brought legislation to Bush to be passed.

Foreign policy:

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Brent Scowcroft, the national security advisor to President Bush, said that the younger Bush clearly lacks international credentials as reported to the Boston Globe April 5th. "Is he comfortable with foreign policy? I would say not." Scowcroft said.

Health care:

AUSTIN, TX -- "You crammed it down my throat" said Bush to Representative Glen Maxey. Maxey forced Bush to accept 228,000 children to the federal/state Children's Health Insurance Program - the CHIP. Why did Bush balk at a program enthusiastically joined by fellow Republican Governors including his brother Jeb Bush in Florida, Engler in Michigan, and Christine Whitman in New Jersey? Bush needed money for his politically motivated tax cut and those children were in his way.

Got the picture yet?
