If you're planning to vote for Republican candidates this fall, consider
that by doing so you will be endorsing the incumbent president. After
reading his credentials, and considering his management of the nation's
affairs, I hope you'll wisely select a different slate of candidates.

GEORGE W. BUSH
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, DC 20520
EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE
LAW ENFORCEMENT I was arrested in Kennebunkport, Maine, in 1976 for
driving under the influence of alcohol. I pled guilty, paid a fine, and
had my driver's license suspended for 30 days. My Texas driving record
has been "lost" and is not available. MILITARY I joined the Texas Air
National Guard and went AWOL. I refused to take a drug test or answer
any questions about my drug use. By joining the Texas Air National
Guard, I was able to avoid combat duty in Vietnam.
COLLEGE I graduated from Yale University with a low C average. I was a
cheerleader.
PAST WORK EXPERIENCE
I ran for U.S. Congress and lost. I began my career in the oil business
in Midland, Texas, in 1975. I bought an oil company, but couldn't find
any oil in Texas. The company went bankrupt shortly after I sold all my
stock. I bought the Texas Rangers baseball team in a sweetheart deal
that took land using taxpayer money. With the help of my father and our
friends in the oil industry, including Enron CEO Ken Lay, I was elected
governor of Texas.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF TEXAS
I changed Texas pollution laws to favor power and oil companies, making
Texas the most polluted state in the Union. During my tenure, Houston
replaced Los Angeles as the most smog-ridden city in America. I cut
taxes and bankrupted the Texas treasury to the tune of billions in
borrowed money. I set the record for the most executions by any governor
in American history. With the help of my brother, the governor of
Florida, and my father's appointments to the Supreme Court, I became
President after losing by over 500,000 votes.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS PRESIDENT
I am the first President in U.S. history to enter office with a criminal
record. I invaded and occupied two countries at a continuing cost of
over one billion dollars per week. I spent the U.S. surplus and
effectively bankrupted the U.S. Treasury. I shattered the record for the
largest annual deficit in U.S. history. I set an economic record for
most private bankruptcies filed in any 12-month period. I set the
all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12-month period. I set the
all-time record for the biggest drop in the history of the U.S. stock
market. In my first year in office, over 2 million Americans lost their
jobs and that trend continues every month. I'm proud that the members of
my cabinet are the richest of any administration in U.S. history. My
"poorest millionaire," Condoleezza Rice, had a Chevron oil tanker named
after her. I set the record for most campaign fund-raising trips by a
U.S. President. I am the all-time U.S. and world record-holder for
receiving the most corporate campaign donations. My largest lifetime
campaign contributor, and one of my best friends, Kenneth Lay, presided
over the largest corporate bankruptcy fraud in U.S. History, Enron. My
political party used Enron private jets and corporate attorneys to
assure my success with the U.S. Supreme Court during my election
decision. I have protected my friends at Enron and Halliburton against
investigation or prosecution. More time and money was spent
investigating the Monica Lewinsky affair than has been spent
investigating one of the biggest corporate rip- offs in history. I
presided over the biggest energy crisis in U.S. history and refused to
intervene when corruption involving the oil industry was revealed. I
presided over the highest gasoline prices in U.S. history. I changed the
U.S. policy to allow convicted criminals to be awarded government
contracts. I appointed more convicted criminals to administration than
any President in U.S. history. I created the Ministry of Homeland
Security, the largest bureaucracy in the history of the United States
government. I've broken more international treaties than any President
in U.S. history. I am the first President in U.S. history to have the
United Nations remove the U.S. from the Human Rights Commission. I
withdrew the U.S. from the World Court of Law. I refused to allow
inspectors access to U.S. "prisoners of war" detainees and thereby have
refused to abide by the Geneva Convention. I am the first President in
history to refuse United Nations election inspectors (during the 2002
U.S. election). I set the record for fewest numbers of press conferences
of any President since the advent of television. I set the all-time
record for most days on vacation in any one-year period. After taking
off the entire month of August, I presided over the worst security
failure in U.S. history. I garnered the most sympathy for the U.S. after
the World Trade Center attacks and less than a year later made the U.S.
the most hated country in the world, the largest failure of diplomacy in
world history. I have set the all-time record for most people worldwide
to simultaneously protest me in public venues (15 million people),
shattering the record for protests against any person in the history of
mankind. I am the first President in U.S. history to order an
unprovoked, pre-emptive attack and the military occupation of a
sovereign nation. I did so against the will of the United Nations, the
majority of U.S. citizens, and the world community. I have cut health
care benefits for war veterans and support a cut in duty benefits for
active duty troops and their families-in-wartime. In my State of the
Union Address, I lied about our reasons for attacking Iraq and then
blamed the lies on our British friends. I am the first President in
history to have a majority of Europeans (71%) view my presidency as the
biggest threat to world peace and security. I am supporting development
of a nuclear "Tactical Bunker Buster," a WMD. I have so far failed to
fulfill my pledge to bring Osama Bin Laden [sic] to justice.
RECORDS AND REFERENCES
All records of my tenure as governor of Texas are now in my father's
library, sealed and unavailable for public view. All records of SEC
investigations into my insider trading and my bankrupt companies are
sealed in secrecy and unavailable for public view. All records regarding
public energy policy are sealed in secrecy and unavailable for public
review.
I am a member of the Republican Party. PLEASE CONSIDER MY EXPERIENCE
WHEN VOTING IN THE 2006 MIDTERM ELECTIONS.
