Bush flip-flops

Up on its site, the GOP has a list of "Kerry flip-flops". Leave it to Kos and his contributors to remind us of Bush's own flip-flops, including: BUSH FLIP-FLOPS • Bush is against campaign finance reform; then he's for it. • Bush is against a Homeland Security Department; then he's for it. • Bush is against a 9/11 commission; then he's for it. • Bush is against an Iraq WMD investigation; then he's for it. • Bush is against nation building; then he's for it. • Bush is against deficits; then he's for them. • Bush is for free trade; then he's for tariffs on steel; then he's against them again. • Bush is against the U.S. taking a role in the Israeli Palestinian conflict; then he pushes for a "road map" and a Palestinian State. • Bush is for states right to decide on gay marriage, then he is for changing the constitution. • Bush first says he'll provide money for first responders (fire, police, emergency), then he doesn't. • Bush first says that 'help is on the way' to the military ... then he cuts benefits • Bush-"The most important thing is for us to find Osama bin Laden. Bush-"I don't know where he is. I have no idea and I really don't care. • Bush claims to be in favor of the environment and then secretly starts drilling on Padre Island. • Bush talks about helping education and increases mandates while cutting funding. • Bush first says the U.S. won't negotiate with North Korea. Now he will • Bush goes to Bob Jones University. Then say's he shouldn't have. • Bush said he would demand a U.N. Security Council vote on whether to sanction military action against Iraq. Later Bush announced he would not call for a vote • Bush said the "mission accomplished" banner was put up by the sailors. Bush later admits it was his advance team. • Bush was for fingerprinting and photographing Mexicans who enter the US. Bush after meeting with Pres. Fox, he's against it.
