NEW & UPDATED RESUMÉ
GEORGE W. BUSH
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue
Washington, DC 20520
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 and got my money out.
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," Condoleeza
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 Department 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 jumbo WMD. I have failed to fulfill my pledge to bring
Osama Bin Laden to justice. I have wiretapped millions of American phone
conversations while ignoring the legal requirement for a court order to
do so. I have signed over 750 Signing Statements (indicating I have no
intention of following the laws I signed into effect) which is more than all
Presidents in U.S. history combined. And, after receivinig the recommendations
of the 9/11 Commission (which I opposed from the start) I was given a
"failing grade" from that Commission on implementing their anti-terror
programs, with the Commission stating that if there was a grade lower than
"failing" I would have gotten that instead.
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 or minutes
from meetings that I, or my Vice-President, attended regarding public
energy policy are sealed in secrecy and unavailable for public review.
Members of my inner circle are either under investigation or indictment
for revealing the identity of a CIA agent during wartime, and/or lying to
a grand jury investigating those crimes.
I am a member of the Republican Party, and many of my best friends, from
Duke Cunningham to Tom DeLay have been indicted and/or resigned
as a result of multi-million dollar corruption investigations.
PLEASE CONSIDER MY EXPERIENCE WHEN VOTING IN THE 2006 MIDTERM ELECTIONS.
