The Complete
Bush Record - National AFL-CIO
The national AFL-CIO has
a record since January 2001 of the actions of Bush and the Bush Administration
that impact workers and working families. We have taken just the headline of
each action which you can reach at the link below. Compete details on each
action (along with press clips) are available at
www.aflcio.org - click on "Bush Watch" and "Complete File."
For Our Summary of
Bush Actions>>>>>>
Bush Record
Is Bad - From A to Z - Especially for Workers
By Rep. George Miller
Senior Democrat on the House Committee on Education and the Workforce and
chairman of the Democratic Policy Committee.
Americans commemorating Labor Day are confronted not only with ineffective
policies that have left millions without jobs, but the aggressive actions of the
Bush administration that strike at the economic security of those still
employed.

Gore Delivers Scathing Attack on Bush
Former Vice President Al Gore
on August 7 lambasted the Bush administration for its handling of the war in
Iraq, the economy and the environment, accusing the president of giving short
shrift to "basic honesty."
In a scathing speech delivered at New York University, Gore listed what he
called numerous false impressions the American public had about Iraq in advance
of the war and about the president's tax cuts before they were enacted.

The
Bush Record in Texas
The elevation (not election) of George W. Bush to the presidency by the Supreme
Court in 2000 may seem a long time ago but the poor record of George W. Bush as
Governor of Texas is still relevant to his present performance in office. This
Washington Post series of 15 articles explores the Texas record in depth. Some
of the articles include: Insurers
Profited from Texas Tort Reform (Post,
Feb. 10, 2000)Texas
'Tort Reform' Aided Business - and Bush (Post,
Feb. 10, 2000) Texas
Environment Could Work Against Bush (Post, Oct. 15, 1999)

Bush Watch Magazine
This is a daily Internet "magazine" from Austin, Texas that does
appear to be edited daily. It claims to be unaffiliated and contains an amazing
number of links to news, media, articles, editorials and other material (mostly
critical) about Bush and his performance as president. Well worth a visit,
particularly if you are looking for some quotation by or about Bush or some very
up-to-date material about his latest action/inaction.

If you want to brighten up your day take a look at this amusing (and yet
meaningful) animated color cartoon (with voice and music) on some of the impacts
of the Bush tax cuts on life in the United States.

Bush - SPEAKING ENGLISH??
Perhaps we need to make it a requirement for presidents of the United States not
only to be born in the United States but also that they be able to speak
English. This site (called DubyaSpeak) is devoted entirely to quotations by Bush
- such as:
"By making the right choices, we can make the right choice for our
future."-- Flawless logic, Dallas, Texas, Jul. 18, 2003
