The World Can't Wait
The Bush-Cheney Administration, with its arbitrary actions, abuse of power, irresponsible spending, baseless aggression against other nations and suspension of Constitutional guarantees, is everything the Founding Fathers labored so hard to prevent. The United States can’t survive three more years as a free, prosperous nation under the gross negligence, irresponsibility and incompetence of this unscrupulous administration. As George Bush delivers his State-of-the-Union address on Jan. 31, thousands of fed up people in cities across the U.S. will create a state of clamor to wake up Americans to the disaster facing further Bush leadership. Chicago area residents will gather at the Daley Center at 5pm or at other sites listed on the worldcantwait.org Web site. Like the brave people of Argentina who rallied and marched beating their kitchen utinsels until their inept government resigned, bring your utinsels, whistles, drums or other noise-makers, add to the din and wake up the freedom that has been anesthesized by the Bush Administration.
After living under the brutal reign of King George III, the Founding Fathers were determined to establish a government in which the power of the chief executive was greatly curtailed. They were well aware that excessive power in the hands of an individual or small group corrupts them and ultimately destroys the nation.
The Founding Fathers put the decision-making and spending powers in the hands of a congress. Emphasizing the priority placed on the legislative branch, the Founding Fathers made it the first and longest article in the Constitution. Those safeguards should have prevented the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, the suspension of habeas corpus and due process, the senseless, unnecessary loss of U.S. military lives, subversive government spying on Americans and the squandering of our tax dollars. However, a series of timid Congresses allowed the president to usurp much of their power to the point that the executive branch is now the dominant branch of government.
After 225 years, has the U.S. political system advanced only from King George III to aspiring king George IV?
The U.S. possesses immense power, but its leaders lack the morality, mentality and maturity to wield it wisely and lawfully. Twenty-first century weapons are in the hands of first century men.
The world can’t wait for Bush & Cheney to learn to tell the truth.
The world can’t wait for a responsible Congress that will exercise its constitutional duties to enforce checks on the Executive Branch.
The Bush-Chaney administration has brought embarrassment and shame to civilized Americans. This Administration has revealed America’s savage side with its torture, use of WMDs and other banned barbaric weapons, criminal aggression, incarceration of innocent people, imprisonment without charges, racist mass murder, destruction of ancient artifacts and wanton carnage.
The Bush-Cheney administration has made one costly blunder after another. Their blunders sent over 2,200 military personnel to a needless, senseless death. Compare that with 2,106, the number of U.S. citizens killed at the WTC on Sept. 11th. Their blunders have squandered over $2 trillion tax dollars of the American people and their descendents.
George Bush and Dick Cheney, on a hasty hunch, sent thousands of American’s youth off to death and dismemberment. They recklessly sent them to fight where there was no enemy. So they created enemies and gave them the home field advantage. George and Dick’s response was just the opposite when they had a chance to sacrifice their lives and limbs for their country. George went AWOL so fast the dust still has not settled in his path. Dick took the frantic but equally speedy path of draft evasion. Deftly keeping just one step ahead of the draft board, he got married and fathered two children which coincided with the Selective Serivce's family exemption increases.
If George Bush and Dick Cheney cared about this nation and its soldiers, they would do what is best for it. They would step down and allow a competent commander-in-chief, who wouldn't go to war on a hunch, and qualified executive leaders to take their places. The people must step up and do what Congress has failed to do, force them out of office before they do any more harm. To escape its second millennium savage nature, America needs a new revolution like the Orange revolution in the Ukraine’s or an oust-the-despot revolution that toppled Milosovic in Yugoslavia.
The people deserve a civilized, principled government that is not the instrument of injustice, oppression, fiscal extravagance and death. Turn up the pressure on Congress. Join concerned Americans and the World Can’t Wait movement and demand the impeachment of George Bush and Dick Cheney.
