GOP the Cause of Terrorism?

The Existential Cowboy has some excellent comments on how well terror flourishes under the GOP,
and I threw in the Big Pharma chart for further relevance to lobbyists and GOP payola.

Terrorism is Worse Under GOP Regimes

So much so that one would think GOP regimes cause terrorism. According to FBI stats, terrorism has been worse under GOP regimes at least since 1980. Reagan's "War on Terrorism" caused terrorism, or at least, made it worse. During a period of two years, terrorist attacks against the United States very nearly tripled.

Why is it that American firefighters from the WTC believe Bush was involved in 9/11?
Why do more than 50% of New Yorkers believe both Bush and Guiliani were involved in 9/11?



From Guido Gonzales to Capo Cheney, the International crime syndicate have their boys in place.

Global warming...hmmm..
I wonder if anyone is computing the effects of depleted uranium on the planet.

One of those pesky war crimes, unreported once again.

but back to the Existential Cowboy, " Some history is needed to put this all in context. Ronald Reagan ordered a US invasion of Lebanon in 1982 and, like Bush now, his invasion was premised upon what was politely called a "deceitful pretext", in other words - a lie! The "pretext" was that the PLO, called a terrorist organization, had shot the Israeli ambassador to London. In fact, the shooter may never have been a PLO member.[Fading Illusions: D-Day and Reagan].

For me, nothing is quite so irritating as to hear anyone from the USA complain about Iran "interfering in Iraq".... EXCUSE ME??????? EXCUSE ME?

Iran is interfering in Iraq? Then what the hell is the USA doing in Iraq? Iran is a neighbor of Iraq with a burgeoning refugee problem and Iraqis fleeing in the millions, American bombing.

The GOP has become a criminal entity, turning over the powers of congress to a (Bush family) dictatorship run by a corporate entity devoid of conscience, statesmanship or intellect. Of course terror surges under their regimes. They sell to both sides, promote war through embedded media and control the public with a media that reflects the fascist face of Rupert Murdoch.

A goodly percentage of the party does not even believe in evolution, and wants to control womens' most private decisions as if we did not have the compassion, intellect or GOD GIVEN equality to make those decisions for ourselves.

Take all of this and add it to the recurring theme of pedophilia that runs through the GOP from Franklingate to Gannongate, and you have more of a sick mob than a political party. A faith based group of fundamentally, fraudulent fascists cloaking themselves in Jesus and funding the demise of democracy with taxpayers money.

Somehow they seem a long way off from the Jesus I studied in bible school. I seem to remember a carpentar, a humble man who kicked the merchants from the house of the lord.
A man who took a vow of poverty, and given the part of the world he was born in - he was likely a person of color - imagine that.
