I. The worst electoral fraud and undermining of democracy in United States history: A. The so-called “elections” of 2000 and 2004. II. The worst abuser of the death penalty in United States history: A. George W. Bush presided over One Hundred and Fifty Two executions while governor of Texas. B. During his reign as governor, Texas set a record by executing forty people in one year. C. While other governors were declaring moratoriums on capital punishment due to deficiencies in the legal system, Bush was routinely denying death-row inmates the opportunity for DNA testing that could have exonerated them. D. Bush then disingenuously boasted that no innocent person had been executed “under his watch,” knowing that any evidence which could potentially disprove this boast was immediately destroyed after an execution had occurred. III. The worst school shooting incident in United States history: A. Over thirty dead at Virginia Tech. IV. The worst terrorist attack on United States soil in United States history: A. Over three thousand dead at the World Trade Center, Pentagon and in the hijacked airplanes. B. Arguments persist that the Bush dictatorship encouraged, or intentionally ignored warnings about, these impending attacks to build support for its invasion of Iraq, which was in the planning stages long before these attacks occurred. V. The worst natural disaster in United States history: A. Hurricane Katrina was America’s costliest disaster. B. It was the deadliest hurricane since 1928, killing over eighteen hundred people. C. The catastrophe was worsened by the ineptitude of the Bush dictatorship in responding to the crisis. 1. Bush’s mother demonstrated the callousness the Bush dictatorship felt towards Katrina victims when, as survivors languished in the Houston Astrodome, she remarked, “[S]o many of the people here were underprivileged anyway, so this is working very well for them.” VI. The worst foreign policy debacle in United States history: A. The invasion of Iraq was based on outright lies about weapons of mass destruction. Source: Pravda.ru
