George Bush Terrorism Natural Disasters Occurring

¶ … presidential administration continues to falter and fail, with a blatant disregard for common sense, logic, and human decency. Among the recent debacles that have haunted America include the botched response to hurricane Katrina and the nomination of a Supreme Court Justice who has no judiciary experience. Coupled with the lies and mishandling of the war in Iraq, the recent actions of the Bush administration have been socially, politically, and economically disastrous. George Bush and his presidential administration have undermined the American economy: the dollar has fallen in relation to other world currencies, and the deficit has skyrocketed. Hurricane Katrina drew attention to the continued problems of racial injustice and economic disparity in the United States, as well as to the inefficiency of governmental bureaucracy. Moreover, the lack of adequate response for Katrina victims can be linked to the overextension of America's National Guard troops in Iraq.

To top it all off, the American government has awarded reconstruction contracts in New Orleans to big budget casino builders. Some of the reconstruction projects were offered, without a bid, to companies like Halliburton. George Bush and other members of the government do not apologize for their conflicting interests or for their lack of ethical outlook. Many citizens find the administration's attitude appalling, but the situation has gone so far as to make it darkly humorous.

The United States has also become the laughing stock of other nations, which continues to devalue American currency and the potential for future trade. Political and diplomatic relationships with formerly friendly nations have been shattered. Ordinary American citizens risk ridicule and even violence when they travel because of the unscrupulous actions of the Bush administration.
