Bush Allows Corperations To Take Over US Government

"Special interests have taken over our government from top to bottom, turning back years of progress on health, safety and the environment," concludes Special Interest Takeover: The Bush Administration and the Dismantling of Public Safeguards. "That this puts the public and our natural resources at significant risk seems to be of little concern to the Bush administration. Rather, the administration appears to view government as an instrument to enrich its political allies."

For example, the report cites Bush's stacking of the Department of Energy's transition team with large-scale donors to his campaign, the so-called "Pioneers" who gave more than $100,000 in individual contributions to help get him elected. Pioneers Ken Lay, former CEO of Enron, Thomas Kuhn, president of the Edison Electric Institute, and Anthony Alexander, president of FirstEnergy, each held seats on the agenda-setting team.

..:: Dutch Video Clip about Bush: Amurka - Make No Mistake ::.. It's a 3:30 minute video clip that is a parody on George W. Bush presidency and his urge to be re-elected. The project is called "Amurka", because Bush doesn't say "America". Yesterday I saw this clip on Dutch TV with a short interview with one of the Dutch makers of this clip and he says that he wants to acomplish that Americans vote on Nov. 2. and don't vote for Bush's second term as president of the USA. You can download the video clip for free at: www.amurka.com . Forward this video to your friends and family!
