GORDON DUFF: GEORGE “W” BUSH: THE LEGACY OF AN AMERICAN “CALIGULA”
GOP AND CORPORATE PRESS HAVE ONE GOAL: KEEP BUSH AND HIS CABAL OUT OF PRISON
By Gordon Duff STAFF WRITER/Senior Editor
Ask any American, or, in fact prettymuch anyone around the world what President Obama’s biggest failing is and they will always say the same thing. Bush is out of prison, proof Obama is a coward or part of the same gang. All any of us wanted was our country back. It isn’t like there weren’t crimes any prosecutor could prove. We spend billions trying to convict children and mental defectives we kidnap off the street of terrorism and we have a gang here, still running their mouths, running free that is responsible for the deaths of 10,000 Americans, destroying the lives of 400,000 more, killing between 1 and 2 million around the world, 98% innocent civilians, and robbing America blind.
Britain is in the middle of an investigation, begun as a half hearted attempt to look at Tony Blair and how they managed to elect a charming and urbane but sociopathic tool as Prime Minister, a man of wit who would follow George “W” Bush blindly into disaster when he should have known better.
We have now learned through informed sources that Blair met with Israeli officials prior to making his decision and had openly suggested, after that meeting, of invading Iran also. Blair’s military experience as a former failed rock guitarist was unable to provide substantive and authoritative support for this “two-fer” attack plan.
As much as our British cousins have tried to bury the truth, every day something leaks out. Blair will never go to prison but it is now known to all there, the Iraq War was a criminal act begun for profit, based on known lies, planned by men of low moral character and executed with incompetence beyond human measure against an enemy that was virtually helpless.
We turned a two week war into a 6 year civil war, decades of civil unrest and the utter destruction of a nation. Was it all an accident? Will anyone be checking the “net worth” of Tony Blair, before the war and after? How can America be jobless, broke yet filled with new billionaires? America still has their military, the best planes (for awhile) and the biggest fleet. What they don’t have is money to pay for it. Who has the money, our money and the real power to rule the world? Who is really in charge, really pulling the strings?
Simply put, there isn’t a single terrorist act, failure of proper management or oversight, political stumble or strategic blunder done during the Bush years that didn’t generate billions in no bid contracts, oil rights, arms deals or in the backroom restructuring of the American financial system that led to the biggest world financial collapse in history. Never in history has so much “stupid” been so very good for so very few at the cost of so many.
If you want to know who the real criminal terrorist ”masterminds” are, check who is making more money now than they were in 2000. Since most money made by the upper 3% of Americans is held in offshore banks, looking will be hard. If you wonder why you can’t buy a home or car or businesses are closing everywhere, think of the hundreds of billions held offshore. Senator Carl Levin has spent years documenting this and years trying to stop it. If you think that the new “corporate controlled” Congress is going to repatriate American wealth and American jobs any better than the current group, good luck to you.
There isn’t just one path that would lead to prosecution, there are hundreds, maybe thousands. With trillions stolen, and nothing being done to look at anything, no real 9/11 investigation, no investigation of the invasion of Iraq, no investigation of torture, no investigation of oil price fixing, no investigation of the real network of financial crimes that brought down our government, no investiation of rigged elections, no investigation of complicity by Americans in spying for foreign governments, no investigation in drug trafficking, no investigations in massive bribery in every part of our government, every aspect of oversight from economy to environment to military spending, it has become clear to anyone with ears to hear and eyes to see that we aren’t dealing with political extremists, we are dealing with organized crime disguised as government.
How many hundreds of millions in bribe money flowed into Washington just to block national health insurance, a basic human right? How many hundreds of millions, even billions of emails were sent out to Americans, all filled with lies written by insurance lobbyists? Do you think they were free? Who do you think pays? We pay for this, we pay with our money, we pay with our health.
We pay for everything. We pay with the lives of our children for the gasoline we pay for with the money that used to buy our food. It is all about paying, simple extortion, price fixing and monopolies.
Our new definition of socialism: A socialist is someone who complains when being robbed.
Our new definition of extremist: An extremist is someone who complains when being robbed.
Our new definition of traitor: A traitor is someone who complains when being robbed.
Our new definition of terrorist: Is it someone who does more than complain? Perhaps complaining is enough. John Ashcroft and Roberto Gonazles thought so.
Our new definition of patriot: Someone who can drive to a flag waving ceremony past streets filled with homeless veterans and see nothing.
and so it goes….

I am hurt beyond any measure. We will never get true justice in this country, and it’s going to take a revolution to bring these monsters to justice. I would compare George Bush to Nero instead of Caligula because during the whole entire war, he showed no sadness or regret whatsoever, and Nero set half of Rome on fire and played his instrument on top of a hill while it was burning and he as well showed no emotion or regret. I am a veteran and I am outraged and betrayed, forsaken, left behind, left to rot, left with nothing but the burning deep passion for justice and truth. We as servicemen lived in this 8 year hell, we suffered PTSD for Blair and Bush, we occupied innocent Iraqi towns for Blair and Bush, we invaded and killed so many for Bush and Blair, we were all so blind from the truth and we need to change, and drastically. There is one last hope left, and that is Vincent Bugliosi (Charles Manson prosecutor) He is targeting Bush and Cheney for the same thing, and when he brings them to court, they are done! They will be imprisoned because Mr. Bugliosi has a track record of 105 successful convictions out of 106 in his whole career. He only lost ONE case through all the decades of his work, he is considered a legend. If anyone reads this posting, go to http://www.indiegogo.com/bush and watch the short video about Vincent Bugliosi, it gave me a LOT of hope.
Scott,
Nero built that beautiful palace. Bush would have crashed a plane into it.

Get a life guys. Bush is no loger in office. He’s gone. He won’t come in the night and get you any longer. That booger no longer has any authority.
Just think, you have change in power now. You will do great in the scialist states of america.
OPEN UP ALL THE PRISON, JERRY POOLE THINKS CRIMES SHOULD GO UNPUNISHED. YES, CALL ANYONE WHO TRIES TO REPAIR THE DAMAGE CAUSED BY GANGSTERS A SOCIALIST.
HOW DO YOU SPELL…”SOCIOPATH”

There is the idea that no one in current leadership would dare prosecute the former group in leadership..because it sets such a precident..and that could mean him being prosecution in the future..
and wasn’t it another Republican that got a pass rather than a striped suit..
It seems to be genetic..
And now we get his grandson…JHC is that all we have in this country..

Bush lied us into the Iraq war with the help of the false evidence provided by the Zionists in the Pentagon’s Office of Special Plans and other lousy people. These lies caused the death of over one million people, mostly Iraqis and Bush received some criticism but no prison time.
Bush committed mass murder and got away with it. If he killed one person with a rifle in Iowa and claimed he had to do it because just maybe the man had a bazooka (he really just had a slingshot) and he might decide one day to fire it in a crowded shopping mall, Bush would be considered crazy and thrown in a prison for the criminally insane.
History shows if an individual wants to perform mass murder and receive no jail time they should become a United States president. With an effective propaganda campaign he could actually be seen as a hero and not a mass murderer.
I can understand them caring about themselves, but why Bush? What does he and his bunch matter to them… he’s done.
I love the new definition of Patriot you created! I hope you won’t mind if I use it in my future debates with republicans.

If you all this upset now, wait until you find out what really has been going on!
why did the dum people of america elect or let the imbecile bush steal the election the second time after he stole the first election. in a country with a real democracy their would have been a REBELLION. FACT IS THE STUPID PEOPLE OF AMERICA DONT CARE.
Don’t you think it makes real patriotic Americans sick every day to think of what was allowed to happen here. Our only choice was violence. We chose to elect a minor improvement over a dime store Hitler.
g
You call Obama an improvement. Man you have a problem, open you eyes. Obama is a marxist socialist that does not care one bit for this nation. he is a muslim and it is questionable if he can legally be president.
you seem like a nice person but are spouting gibberish. please, don’t do that.
g
It seems that you are on a crusade on this site, to Blame Bush, Blame Repubicans, when none of you are not spending any effort to find solutions to solve the problems that this nation has. Bashing by either side does not result in solutions, it only results in more bashing. Our government especially congress needs a mass housse cleaning (Most or all of them in both parties. This present administratiion is sick joke that would be funny is the circumstances were not so serious. We have a government that is intent on creating a marxist scocialist country, taking away our liberties, destroying the constitution, and all many of you seem have anger and want revenge. Yes I am a conservative, I did vote for GW Bush both times, but as time and more research on him, GH Bush, the Clintons, Obama, and many president going back before, including Carter Nixon, FDR, Wilson, and Teddy Roosevelt, I have found a common thread that they and many others in this country both Dems and Repubs, have been working on the New World Order. They have had plenty of help thru the years, from people like Kissinger, Bliderbergs, Rocherfellers, and many more both in this country, along with their allies outside the country. Now I am for Rule of Law, and a strict Constitutionist, but we need to put our energies into productive things to save the nation, not this petty bashing. We have a nation that need its people to come together, to save it from our own government (Note I did not specify right or left). I call myself an American, and yes I am a Conservative. I am not a veteran, but having lived thru the Vietnam War as a young adult, I saw the injustice that those Vets have endured, and beacuse of that WE (My Wife and I) make an effort to tell every veteran and our active duty members of the military, by thanking them for their service to this nation. We have been doing this for many years now, and encourage other to do so as well. We give to Veterans organiztions as much we can. We have been doing this also for many years.
We were confronted with a great evil, something our forefathers never imagined possible, American leaders who would work so hard to destroy everything built and how a group calling themselves evangelical christians or conservatives would, in fact, be petty tyrants, small time snitches and cowards and would cheer on the destruction of America.
The war isn’t over. The enemy at home survives to fight again.
g
there is no party difference in office and has not been for over 100 years.ever president and all members work in a status of compromise. Americans have not owned America in a long time. WE own nothing but Debt. the difference in obama and our past leaders is he breaks his word, lies, then denies and believes that we lack the intelligence to know the difference. past presidents were more secretive and worked in the shadows to accomplish our ultimate destruction.
there has been nothing in our history like “w”….he is miles and miles below the worst of them. debt is a gop thing…a way of turning us into slaves….
g
If debt is a Gop thing, why is the fedral deficit 3 times higher now than when Obama took office? I will admit that Bush and the Gop Congress did not reign in spending, but before that the Dems spent spent spent, and since 2006 the Dems have spent spent spent, and with Obama, it is totally out of control with no end in sight.
Gordon do you really think that any of this congress (both parties), but now ecpecially the Left since they are running the showm is really trying to do anything good for this country. Do you really like the marxist socialist agenda they and Obama are promoting. I for on hate socialism. In every country or society that is has been tried, it has failed. Obama is a marxist socialist with a communist agenda, and is muslim who DOES NOT GIVE A DAM about this nation. Most of those running this nation have a ONE NEW WORLD ORDER agenda. This nation was founded on Christian principles. We have put God so far out of our society that it is no wonder that this nation has the problems that it has. When we condone, homosexuality, abortion, and in general the if it feels good do it, that started in the 1960′s, we can expect that our society will be reduced to ashes. You seem to focus on groups such as: “evangelical christians or conservatives would, in fact, be petty tyrants, small time snitches and cowards and would cheer on the destruction of America.” and blame these groups for all the problems. If you will not look passed what you perceive as the problem, and look at ALL parts of the problem, you will never see where or what the problem is, and WILL NEVER FIND THE SOLUTIONS. If you will really open your eyes, and look around, you will find that it is in fact Christians and conservatives that are the people (in large numbers I might add) that are the really trying to save this nation, not as you state snitches and cowards that are cheering on the destruction of America.
I understand what you and many went thru in Vietanam, but it is time for you to start putting the anger away, so that you can begin to heal. This does not mean stop fighting for the rights for all veterans. On that I am right their with you. I feel as stong about those things as you do, but so many things that you write about, seem so angry, that you are chasing away people that are on your side.
it probably wouldn’t hurt you to get involved here
you aren’t entirely wrong but we are not entirely stupid either
figure we are up to something
Sir,
You don’t have your facts strait, sorry. I don’t know where to begin with you.
A. DAM? do you mean Damn? Which is short for damnation?
B. This nation was in NO WAY founded on Christian principles, furthermore, those same principles you speak of have been so grossly twisted over the past several decades that pastors actually preach hate and judgment to their flock…I recall something about “judge not lest ye be judged” and “let he who is without sin…” sound at all familiar? Oh yeah, ever hear of freedom of religion? It happened to be one of the founding principles.
C. Where did you read that Obama is a Marxist? I’m sure several places but just because you read something doesn’t mean it’s true. Check your sources and also check the definition of Marxism. Canada, Germany, Sweden, all countries that provide health care and at the same time none are “Socialist” governments.
D. There are several flourishing socialist/democratic based countries out there that care for their people while allowing those same people the freedoms that they deserve (and no I am no Socialist or Communist so please don’t resort to that) and need. In fact, without social programs you don’t have Police, Fire departments, EMTs, public Schools, but we don’t see it that way because these programs are provided at a state level though they’re regulated by the federal government. Isn’t that a bit social?
Look, all I’m asking you to do is look past the reactionary angry talk you hear or read and do some research (not gleaned from a “news” source) and speak intelligently for yourself. All I see when I read comments like yours, is that someone has made you look like a bit of a fool for feeding you this garbage and in return you vilify yourself by spouting what “they” tell you to.
Think for yourself, sir.
We are not allowed to criticize spelling and punctuation…this is a Veterans site and most of us can barely read and write.
g
Bush is getting blamed for everything that has happened since Obama has been in. The gross national product index has gone up but Obama will take that. Get off the Bush bash and worry about what Obama is going to do. If you people think Pecolosi, Heid and several others will help this country, we are in trouble. They better start listening to what the people are saying because if not, they will lose 150 house seats.
Blamed for being a criminal, a monster or a thief? Choose.
Why so much anger???
actually having a good time…
but…you have a good point. if i don’t talk for the anger of others..which i do fairly well…and give a shit about the US, which I actually do, folks like limbaugh, beck, bush, cheney, pelosi and others will do it instead
figure why a pack of people who should know better work together..work with me..
it is because we are having a damned good time…and are getting some things done…things you would ultimately approve of
i am simply sick of the bullshit….and in a position where, because of powerful banking clients, large readership and friends in government, i can be a pain in the ass and get away with it
worry about this….being intellectually flexible and reality based.
g
We the people need to take back this nation, and to this we need to throw out as many of congess, both parties, (All would be nice) as we can.
What nation? I don’t see any nation.
You’re right Sally, there are only corporations, no nation left at all!
The only traces are the mass genocide, radioactive and toxic waste, and military bases.
Oh, yeah, and the still waving, disgraced flag, on which I piss.
OK Strict Constitutionalist…
Why don’t YOU Demand an Article V Convention? It’s that or a Revolution.

Exactly!

duff when did u return from canada?
Stop fucking “dissing” Canada we aren’t your enemy…. you are your own enemy. fucking get it together and take responsibility. you the American people are responsible for all of this….now do something about it!!!!!! show us that spirit of “the brave and the free”… and free yourselves.
I think the word Canada is not used in a negative light other than there were quite a number of AWOLs who went to Canada for whatever reason. Some stayed up there but others came back. I like Canada but will never go back to Quebec again, me and my family were treated like shit and the people did not like Americans.
I spend part of the year in France. A few years ago I had dinner with friends and one of our guests was a young “american’ hater. Last year at CDG (airport) Carol (wife) had to remind me to put a security guard down..my PTSD had convinced me that he needed an ass whipping…something you would ahve done also.
but…no place on earth is as nice to live..for americans as france.
you can find a town or a neighborhood you like….and it will be like you have lived there all your life.

NIXON was the template for an Imperial Presidency. True, some of the Watergate cronies faced jail time. But the architects for expanding the VN War into Laos & Cambodia and PROLONGING it another 5 years were left untouched. Kissinger got the Nobel Peace Prize ! Some of the people – like Rummy & Cheney cut their political teeth during Nixon’s time in office. Bush 2 / the Sequel was all about making as much money as possible for eight years and shredding the Constitution in the process. Criticism of ANY of their policies was deemed “unpatriotic”. Sound familiar ?
Fellow Veterans…
Demand an Article V Convention of Congress or prepare for a Revolution.

How can you insult the best president this country has ever had? Pause (loading crack pipe), hack cough! This guy has done so many great things for the United States. Here is a list of his great achievemnts:

It is funny that when someone publicly advocates for upholding the rule of law, so called “conservatives” only reply with a bunch of tired old lies and excuses. The rule of law is not about political parties. When you allow politics (i.e. bulls**t) to become an excuse for allowing criminals to run free, you are far from the truth. Enforcing the law is not about scoring points in some lame political debate. What does it matter what party you are part of? How does party affiliation make you immune from the law? What kind of wrongheaded thinking is it to say that because the political system is corrupt, we should stop enforcing the law? Have you considered the possibility that the climate of political corruption may be due to the absence of a rule of law for those in positions of power? Every commentator here who is opposing the rule of law only raises recycled diversions and false arguments, trying to change the subject, and avoid stating truthfully what it is they advocate. If you are opposed to the rule of law, then state so plainly, and make your arguments.
Public Sector Contracts…
Good Tip…
Great Stuff Gordon.
It’s nice to see someone speaking the truth. I am still incredibly upset over the destruction of the USA caused by George W. Bush and his Administration. Although I don’t agree with everything Obama is doing, I believe he has every right to remind the American people that he inherited the current financial woes of our economy from G.W.B. and I would add the past Republican controlled Congress!
Thanks Gordon keep up the great work.
