My dad go sent overseas. He had to go out there and fight. I still agree with Bush! I too, admire him! He is great president! That's what I think. |

I am not too up to snuff on politics and I understand alot of people don't like Bush. And yes, he is a horrible public speaker; however as for questioning how smart he is, you cannot under any circumstances call the man an idiot. If you wish to blame him for economic problems, then i would like to remind you of a small insignificant day that will go down in history books as 9/11. That may have played a small part in our economic drop--along with the reason we are overseas fighting in a war, rather than sitting on our asses like it never happened. Did I agree to going to war with Iraq, no, but I did agree with going to war against Afghanistan. I do not, however, agree with pulling out of Iraq now. If you folks don't recall, back in the 70's I believe, we helped one of those countries--I think it was Afghanistan--when communist Russia was trying to take them over. We supplied troops and weapons to their defense, and after everything was done, we up and left. That was one of the reasons they didn't like us, because we didnt stay to help them rebuild their country. If we leave Iraq now we will have a bigger problem in the future. Does post WWI Germany ring a bell. Germany was left desolated, absolutely wasted economically and blown to shit. When a people are that devastated they follow the next most confident, charasmatic leader to come out of the crowd. And that is how a lovely man named Adolf Hitler came into power. I mean he didn't do too much. Started a small skirmish called World War II, tried to annihilate an entire race, and take over the world, but anyways, whose keeping track right. And for those of you who would rather listen to the U.N. I have one question--Why? When has the U.N. sacrificed their own men to help an enslaved people, or put themselves on the line to do what is right, whether others want them to or not. No seriously guys, fill me in. In Africa in Rowanda, I don't think so. Did they send people to Kuwait, nope I believe that was us and some other COUNTRIES aagin--not teh United Nations. Why? Well because in the words of Dave Chappelle oh yeah because they don't have an army. They are however very good being politically correct and playing both sides of the fence. That was precisely the reason we didn't join the League of Nations when the idea first came up. Another question, how could Bush be to blame for the biggest drop in the stock market history. Wasn't there something called The Great Depression. Yes, maybe the stock market fell more points under Bush than it did during The Great Depression, but we don't have the same results. So what's worse a stock market that dips sevreal thousand points, or one that falls a couple hundred and sends a nation into a depression where people are poverished without food and shelter. HHHHMMMM, I think I would go with the second one, hundreds are less than thousands; I mean, how important is food anyways. And his economic plan actually helped keep the slight recession (not depression) to a minimum. Oh yes one more thing, who else would we have elected given our options: John Kerry, or Ralph Nader, or maybe you people would rather have voted someone in from one of those parties whose biggest issue at hand is legalizing marijuana. Just to let you all know, we would be in a deep shit hole if Kerry had been elected. Want to know why, probably not, but I will share anyways. What were his plans for America when he became president--not do what George Bush is doing now (I probably could have quoted that on several accounts by the way). Well, maybe it is alright for some, but I don't think that is the way our President should be, not knowing what he is going to do, only what he is not going to do. Ohh yes, except in foriegn policy where he stated that he would sit down and have isolated talks with kim jung-il (or however you spell his name). Yes that is great, let's have one -on-one discussions, cause that will be more influencing than having us and a group of other countries sitting down and telling him what we want. Cause going to war with one country is scarier than going to war with 10. It is like peer pressure guys, the more people there the more pressured you feel, the less there, the more apt you are to stand your ground, come on now. We all learn that in middle school. Not to mention waht it would have done to our relations with China. Yes the ones we had been trying so hard to build. Yes those ones, they would have crumbled with one swipe of one-on-one discussions. I mean China and South Korea are the closest neighbors to North Korea, and North Korea happens to be their biggest threat right now. Not to mention screwing relations with the fastest growing economy in the world would have been plain idiotic. So yes, I don't believe Bush is the best president, but do i believe he was the best choice during those elections, most definately. |

Yeah, but what Blair is doing in England already happens to millions of people around teh world. Kevin, Italy and several other European countries are tightening tehir surveillance and such, and they haven't been getting bombed like that. And, just so we don't get confused, everybody is a liar. No, there may not have been weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, but in case you didn't realize, Bush didn't Bullshit that. I am not backing him up, but he didn't pull that out of his ass. When Bill Clinton was in office the same reports were coming to him. Intelligence said that Iraq had Weapons of Mass destruction then too. He was just to busy getting a blowjob to do anything about it. Like Clinton didn't do anything about Osama Bin Laden. Clinton had a clear chance to catch him, but said no, he hasn't done anything to us yet. Boy was that a mistake. And yes I believe Bush is somewhat fighting his daddy's tiff. But that doesn't matter now. It matters how we handle it from here on out. WE can't change the fact that we are over there. And teh fact that saddam hussein is in jail, does that make sense to anybody but me. The man forcefully killed thousands, not to mention, he was behind the first one maybe two world trade center bombings. So it isnt like the man was innocent. |

All he has to do is represent the general view of 50.0001% of the people at any given time. |

All he has to do is not kill us. and to protect us in every way possible. and he has done that. the terrorist killed our ppl so he sent our soldiers to go kill the ppl who killed us because if he didnt they would've tried to kill us again. and the reason he had the soldiers kill iraqis was because they helped the terrorist and they would continue helping them. jsut like if u let a murderer in ur house and then buty him the gun to kill ur neighbor ur at as much fault as the murderer. |

If someone killed the one I love, yea I would be pissed off, but what is the point in killing them?? If we continue this cycle eventually everyone will be dead and gone. If I killed the person who killed the one I loved, then the person who loves them may kill me, etc. And we don't know exactly who bombed us, knowing who killed us is different than not knowing... |

that's totally different!! i mean, i would too...i dont know if you guys are christians or whatever, and i'm not trying to turn this into anything about family or God, but we don't have the right to judge, or take someone else's life...I agree I want those terrorists to burn in hell for what they did, but I don't want a war either...life's too short... we have to enjoy it to it's fullest... |

this ia aquote from my dad not from me and i do not agree with it but im saying it anyway. "just drop 2 nukes on em run like hell then come back in 30 years. that'll shut em up." just add a few cause words in there and that is what my dad thinks. he thinks they're worthless pieces of poo and i think thats what Bush thinks too but hes not about to bomb them so i think he's doing the least amount of things he could do. i mean he could send over our whole military adn jsut shred them apart but hes not. thank God my dad not i is president. |
