I mean, what exactly do you see in this guy? Certainly the Republican party can do better then George W. Bush.

Kerry Spent four years in Vietnam, Gore went to Vietnam as well.
Bush went AWOL, Cheney got four deferments
VERY patriotic.

Clinton = Surplus
Bush = Doubled the National Debt in Six-years
We now owe more money then our GNP

Gwen, George Bush joined a National Guard unit that was pretty much gauranteed not to go to Vietnam. Don't compare him to the men in Iraq today, that coward has no right to command the men who serve him.

I think Bush's approval rating pretty much says it all.
Most (sane) people now agree that he will go down in history as one of our nation's worst presidents. There used to be some room to debate this, but it becomes more clear by the day that we the people made a grave error in his re-election.
In support of this we need look no further than the myriad of cabinet posts that were abandoned during his tenure. Essentially ALL of them! His own advisors couldn't work with or for him because he's entirely unreasonable. Worse - he possesses a dangerous conviction that prevents him from considering the possibility that not all of his decisions are good ones. I'm sure he means well, but as they say, the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Seems were headed that way...especially with all this record heat!
Goodbye Kyoto...

Kerry applied for & was turned down for a deferrment. He then joined military.
Gore had education deferrments & when they ran out he ran down & joined before they could draft thim. These are the same deferrments that Cheney had. If one can have them, the other must be able to.
President Bush joined National Guard in TX, they met every 2-3 months. He forgot 1 meeting & was AWOL until called & he served an extra 3 months on his own accord. He actucally loved his service as he was a pilot. No draft dodging, just 1 of many who joined the Guard. Clinton on the other hand never served anywhere & it is said he used power to stay out of draft. He was a vocal anti-war protester, what a president. NOT!
Bush like most presidents got stuck with the previous presidents spending cost. That would be Clinton's spending. Plus wars do not pay for themself. The Homeland Security required by 9-11
is very expensive too.
Try to come up with a viable canidate instead of attacking Bush. We are looking for a canidate & do not care what demo-rats are doing.

George W didn't draft dodge, that was Bill Clinton. George might have avoided Vietnam but he didn't dodge the draft. He joined the National Guard, perhaps you heard of them. . . they are the ones doing most of the dying in Iraq.

Because they buy into the propaganda the right spews out on the nation, if America would wake up and do a little research instead of thinking what the right wing propagandist tell them to think, Bushes approval rating would probably be about 3%.

Excuse me CLINTON was a draft dodger also. So don't even start preaching to me about President Bush dodging the draft. At least he has some moral worth instead of slick willy.

Man good question. Bush is a wimp. Big talk, but he will not back it up himself. "remember bring it on." Some rednecks just don't won't to admit it. I'm a disable vet with 6 skills. Bush, and the rest of them rednecks (red states) are cowards. He talk big noise, but I'll send the poor to war. All you rednicks can go to hell.

After 8 years of a draft-dodging womanizing lying under oath pot smoker, isn't that a bit hypocritical to say anything at all about Bush and his record?

Please stop smoking the rock dude.Stop believing what the media cooks up.Also,i will bet that you don't even know what our GNP is.Also,it is Congress that spends the most,the president's budget is only a small % of the entire budget.It takes courage to believe the truth.

Because Kerry was a much worse choice!! Get some Dems that actually believe what they say, and actually have a vision, and maybe they will have a chance.
