As President, George W. Bush has the Duty to appoint officials to be "in charge" of various government agencies. He has deliberately appointed people who have The Belief that Government is Bad: They have no concept of "public service". The Bush nominees, without exception, have been poor performers in the offices they "occupy" -- whatever this occupation is, it is not public service.
By filling public offices -- AT THE TOP -- with people who have no concept of public service, Bush has almost single-handedly created a Quagmire of dysfunction.
Interesting Comparison: Years have passed since New Orleans was drowned in the natural, predicted, and well-documented arrival of Hurricane Katrina in August 2005, and we are now able to assess the role played by Government in that continuing disaster. Interestingly enough, armed BLACKWATER troops by the hundreds were occupying the streets of New Orleans immediately, during the storm, and weeks before FEMA forces and programs began arriving (if they have even yet been put into place).
Under Bush, there is no Governance. The public is left to the wolves, "protected" either by other wolves or by gates left unguarded.
What I have learned: It is better to know than to believe. It is better to be loved, than to know. It is better to be alive, than to be loved. To be alive, is to believe. So....

TOMATOES. 6/28/2008 LAT reports that although over 800 Americans across 36 States fell ill (100 hospitalized) in an ongoing salmonella outbreak, THE CAUSE HAS NOT BEEN FOUND.
ReplyDeleteDr Patricia Griffin of the Centers for Disease Control announced that after testing tomatoes, NOT ONE TEST was positive. This has made many people angry because the Federal Food and Drug Administration had ANNOUNCED that tomatoes were carrying this rare strain of Salmonella Saintpaul. That accusation was untrue.
This is but another example of consequences directly flowing from the incompetent appointments made by Bush-Cheney-Rove into government positions. The FDA is late in coming to the crisis, makes false and harmful accusations, and still cannot find the cause of an outbreak of contamination illnesses. The Tomato industry will be affected for years to come, many growers have been ruined by broad accusations. Lack of oversight of fresh produce is exposed. The lack of intelligent leaders, or sufficient staff and budgets, in food safety agencies is revealed.
