BUSH TAKES OFF THE GLOVES!
Tue Jun 14 2005 21:37:56 ET

President Bush tonight ripped the Democratic Party as a pack of do-nothing obstructionists bent on derailing his agenda of reform, telling Democratic leaders in Congress that on issue after issue, "they stand for nothing except obstruction, and this is not leadership."

Joseph Curl at WASHINGTON TIMES reporting in fresh editions: At an evening congressional gala at the Washington Convention Center -- which drew $23 million for House and Senate Republicans and amounted to the kick-off of the 2006 political campaign season -- the president drew standing ovations from GOP faithful as he hammered Democrats for offering no solutions to the nation's most pressing problems. "If leaders of the other party have innovative ideas, let's hear them. But if they have no ideas or policies except obstruction, they should step aside and let others lead," Mr. Bush said to thunderous applause from more than 5,000 supporters.

The president, who has spent the last several months seeking consensus on his Social Security reform package and reaching out to Democrats with non-confrontational rhetoric, said opposition party leaders are pursuing "the philosophy of the stop sign, the agenda of the road block, and our country and our children deserve better."

"Political parties that choose the path of obstruction will not gain the trust of the American people," he said at the event dubbed "The 2005 President's Dinner."

Mr. Bush said political parties can take one of two approaches: "One approach is to lead, to focus on the people's business, to take on the tough problems, and that is exactly what our party is doing."

"The other approach is to simply do nothing, to delay solutions, obstruct progress, refuse to take responsibility. Members of the other party have worked with us to achieve important reforms on some issues, yet, too often, their leadership prefers to block the ideas of others."

Also, the the poll ratings for Congress are very low and the egomaniacs up for reelection in 2006 are starting to fear for keeping their cushy jobs. Hopefully they'll start applying some serious pressure to do something about george WARMONGER bush. Impeach bush now!

Bush isn't LBJ. LBJ actually felt remorse for his bad decisions and chose not to run. LBJ had a raft of civil rights legislation on the positive side of his ledger. Bush has nothing. Bush is a sociopath, and feels nothing for the blood, treasure and international standing he has wasted. This is the same man who mocked Carla Fay Tucker's plea for her life before executing her as Governor of Texas.
