Let me explain this president does not have one bad thing to say about anyone he basically turns the other cheek. What is the results! he gets attack every day people takes potshots at him on a continual basis so liberals you have to admit turning the other cheek and being nice does not seem to work it only seems intensifies the attacks (almost like terrorism). Should he be more aggresive like Clinton and lash back at his enemies, in my opinion being nice does not seem to work well.

Look, the mad-man wants to escalate the war in Iraq. He wants to escalate the war in Afghanistan. He wants to escalate the war in Serbia. He wants to start war in Venezuela.

War is Bush's answer to everything.

Diplomacy was lost with the Clinton Administration.

Bush plans on defying Congress just as he has been defying the American people for the last 6 years.

America fought the Revolutionary war to get rid of Mad King George.

What must America do, now, to get rid of Mad President George?

As a work-study in college, I received the federal minimum wage ($5.15/hour). I saw that the minimum wage increase was passed by Congress; if it goes all the way through, I want to know if I (and my fellow work studies) will receive a raise per hour. My pay does come from a grant, but I could work less and draw the same amount of money if my wage per hour was increased.

Isn't this really his last chance to hang onto the presidency?

2007-01-11 01:20:27 · 9 answers · asked by In Honor of Moja 4

He is one of the worst presidents in history. He is clearly incompetant at running the affairs of the country, he started an unnesescary war before finalizing a conflict that actually had a reason, and his religious beliefs permeate his policy (very un-american!). Clinton was taken to task for his personal chioces... Bush has enacted bad policy that has affected the entire nation and we will feel the aftershocks of this schlock office for years to come.

I have a feeling the only reason Bush has been allowed to remain in office so long is because people identify with him on a religious level.

Poll Paralysis
It has now been a month since the Washington Post and ABC news did a poll of public opinion at the year's end, but the neither the paper or the network has reported on the some of the poll's most striking findings. The poll reveals strong public optimism about Americans' personal lives and the country as a whole.

The survey showed 71 percent of respondents optimistic about America's ability to defend itself against terror attacks, 64 percent optimistic about the economy and 61 percent about how things are going in the U.S.

But none of that was mentioned in four stories referencing the poll in the Post — and two reports on ABC. Instead, those stories focused on overall pessimism about Iraq and the president's policies
Still want to tell me that there is no Bias at
ABC?

You know, in democratic set up all the peoples are equal before the law. And the President , the Prime Minister and all other government fuctionaries regard as the servants of the people. Because all of them are living under the patronage of money contributed by the common people as tax and other levies. People includes prostitutes to smugglers to beggars are the part of such contribution. But in most of the countries such government dignitaries enjoys profound luxuries sans knowing the greivances of common people. We know ,still poverty & starvation plagued in our world. But the rulers think, all these enigmas are the fate of those poor people who have the duty to pay tax, at the same time cursed to expereince utter poverty without any right. Who, the great, invented this type of democracy? thanks for democratic autocracy! During the rule of kings, we did only tolerate one king. But now our parliament full of kings and we, the poor forced to tolerate hundreds of kings simultaneously

Also how would you classify these terms. Are these "Forms of government." I looked these up but still am confused. For example I know we are a Capitalist nation but I also know all democratic governments aren't captialist? I know Marxism spawned Communism but Russia's form of communism is different from Modern Day China? I have no idea what Socialism is? I know England and France where Imperialst nations in the past because they imperialised other nations my question is are there still imperialst nations? In WW2 italy was a Facist nation what is Facism? Also what roll does economy play in these different forms of government? Please help. Thank you.

We should all be thankful for a person who has to listen to the ex-hippie Liberal bullshit that slings out of the mouths of the most covert undermining group of noisemakers around. A minority but a loud minority. He still has to make tough decisions every day.. Of course you Libs think he wants people to die. Die for what ? if you belive that he wants that you are sick.
