Dubya's 50 Greatest Achievements

This is a repost of a blog that I put up on October 23, 2008.  I thought we all needed to be reminded of why Obama was elected.  Kind of makes Obama look good all over again, doesn't it?


 
George W. Bush's 50 greatest accomplishments

1. I attacked and took over two countries.
2. I spent the US surplus and bankrupted the US treasury.
3. I shattered the record for the biggest annual deficit in history (not easy)
4. I set an economic record for the most personal bankruptcies filed in any 12 month period.
5. I set all-time record for the biggest drop in the history of the stock market.
6. I am the first president in decades to execute a federal prisoner.
7. I am the first president in US history to enter office with a criminal record.
8.
In my first year in office I set the all-time record for the most days
on vacation by any president in US history (tough to beat my dad's, but I
did).
9. After taking the entire month of August off for vacation, I presided over the worst security failure in US history.
10. I set the record for most campaign raising trips by any president in US history.
11. In my first two years in office over 2 million Americans lost their jobs.
12. I cut unemployment benefits for more out-of-work Americans than any other president in US history.
13. I set the all-time record for most real estate foreclosures in a 12-month period.
14. I appointed more convicted criminals to administration positions than any other president in US history.
15. I set the record for fewest press conferences of any president since the advent of TV.
16. I presided over the biggest energy crisis in US history and refused to intervene when corruption was revealed.
17. I signed more laws and executive orders amending the Constitution than any other US president in history.
18. I cut health-care benefits for war veterans.
19.
I set the all-time record for most people worldwide to simultaneously
take to the streets to protest me (15 million people), shattering the
record for protest against any one person in the history of mankind.
20. I dissolved more international treaties than any president in US history.
21. I've made my presidency the most secretive and unaccountable of any in US history.
22.
Members of my cabinet are the richest of any administration in US
history (the poorest multimillionaire, Condoleeza Rice, has a Chevron
oil tanker named after her).
23. I am the first president in US history to have all 50 states of the union simultaneously struggle against bankruptcy.
24. I presided over the biggest corporate stock market fraud in any market in any country in the history of the world.
25.
I am the first president in US history to order a US attack and
military occupation of a sovereign nation, and I did so against the will
of the United Nations and the vast majority of the international
community.
26. I have created the largest government department bureaucracy in the history of the US.
27.
I set the all-time record for biggest annual budget spending increases,
more than any other president in US history (Reagan was hard to beat,
but I did it!)
28. I am the first president in US history to compel the United Nations to remove the US from the Human Rights Commission.
29. I am the first president in US history to have the United Nations remove the US from the Elections Monitoring Board.
30.
I removed more checks and balances and have the least congressional
oversight of any presidential administration in US history.
31. I rendered the entire United Nations irrelevant.
32. I withdrew from the World Court Of Law.
33. I refused to allow inspectors access to US prisoners of war and by default no longer abide by the Geneva Conventions.
34. I am the first president in US history to refuse United Nations elections inspectors access during the 2002 elections.
35. I am the all-time US (and world) record holder for the most corporate campaign donations.
36.
The biggest lifetime contributor to my campaign, who is also one of my
best friends, presided over one of the largest corporate bankruptcy
frauds in world history (Kenneth Lay, former CEO of Enron Corporation.)
37. I spent more money on polls and focus groups than any president in US history.
38.
I am the first president to run and hide when the US came under attack
(and then lied, saying the enemy had the code to Air Force 1).
39. I am the first US president to establish a secret shadow government.
40.
I took the world's sympathy for the US after 9/11, and in less than a
year made the US the most resented country in the world (possibly the
biggest diplomatic failure in US and world history).
41. I am the
first US president in history to have a majority of the people of Europe
view my presidency as the biggest threat to world peace and stabilty.
42. I changed US policy to allow convicted criminals to be awarded government contracts.
43.
I set the all-time record for the number of administration appointees
who violated US laws by not selling their huge investments in
corporations that later made bids for gov. contracts.
44. I have removed more freedoms and civil liberties for Americans than any other president in US history.
45. I have created the most divided country in decades, possibly the most divided that the US has been since the Civil War.
46.
I entered office with the strongest economy in US history and in less
than two years turned every single economic category heading straight
down.
47. I have at least one conviction for drunk driving in Maine (Texas driving record has been erased and is not available).
48.
I was AWOL from the National Guard and deserted the military during
time of war. I refused to take a drug test or even answer any questions
about drug use.
49. All records of my tenure as governor of Texas
have been spirited away to my father's library, sealed in secrecy and
unavailable for public view. All records of any SEC investigation into
my insider trading or bankrupted companies are sealed in secrecy and
unavailable for public view.
50. All minutes of meetings of any
public corporations for which I served on the board are sealed in
secrecy and unavailable for public view. Any records or minutes from
meetings I (or my VP) attended regarding public energy policy are sealed
in secrecy and unavailable for public review.
----------------------...and that ain't all....

Skimmed, but no comment necessary. "Been there, done that".

Yes! Just a reminder to others.

Well, we have to cope with being in Texas and Oklahoma. This is uncomfortable for us and we just needed to remind you of all Bush's corrupt
dealings.
comment by elderjane on Oct 28, 2011 5:32 AM ()
You know how smart the voters in Texas are. They have elected Rick Perry governor three times.

If comparing Obama to Bush is what it takes to make Obama look good, then we're really in a lot of trouble. Also, I'm not so sure all 50 of these things are correct; a list of Obama's "accomplishments" would be equally interesting.
In response to Eddie's comment above (or is it below?), I wouldn't be a bit surprised if Obama won the next election. In fact, I almost expect it.
comment by jerms on Oct 27, 2011 8:15 PM ()
They are all correct. I just wanted to remind people of how bad things were when Obama took over. How quickly people forget. Obama has accomplished much more than you might think...and all of it positive...not negative. He will be reelected by a landslide.

Thanks for the reminder.
comment by troutbend on Oct 27, 2011 6:11 PM ()
I get so tired of Obama being blamed for Bush's sins.
reply by redimpala on Oct 27, 2011 9:20 PM ()
We cannot dwell on the past.It is gone and now we have to think of the future.Hopefully that he is able leave room for margin and error.
Bush and the rest of the gang are gone.The damages all ready been done.
So we will move on with Obama leads the way.
The rest thereThey are a bunch of losers.
Obama will prevail.
comment by fredo on Oct 27, 2011 3:40 PM ()
Obama will be reelected because the Republicans don't have a decent candidate. He might have more trouble if the GOP were not running a bunch of idiots.
reply by redimpala on Oct 27, 2011 9:19 PM ()
I am pretty sure Obama is going to be a one term president.
reply by eddie on Oct 27, 2011 5:43 PM ()
Joan, be nice to the boss, smile and move on--remember where he comes from!!!!
comment by greatmartin on Oct 27, 2011 1:19 PM ()
reply by redimpala on Oct 27, 2011 9:21 PM ()
Are you saying Bush was a loser????
comment by greatmartin on Oct 27, 2011 10:25 AM ()
Eddie, you would be SO wrong.
reply by redimpala on Oct 27, 2011 12:33 PM ()
I believe she is saying that Obama is a loser!
