I couldn't agree with you more!
The only Bush I would trust is my own!
What we need is a government that focuses on improving domestic health care and transportation like the train system through-out Europe, instead of taxes going for bombs/war, etc!

In reality Kennedy was a very poor president as president's go. For some really good info about Kennedy and the lengths to which he went to win the election read Paul Johnson's History of the American People. He bribed union officials to get the Union vote back when Labor Unions still had power. He let Cuba go communist by refusing to provide air cover for the Bay of Pigs invasion. He slept with anything that had breasts and a heartbet so his family values were lacking. He gets credit for the civil rights movement but in reality it was his successor Johnson who did more that movement than any other president.
Bush may be a bad president by current thinking. However in 30 years he maybe looked at as a great leader. Especially if democracy takes hold in Iraq and Afghanistan. If it spreads to other countries in the middle east he may very well be looked at as one of the best presidents in modern times.
What we truly need is a real man of the people. Someone who doesn't come from money, some one who has morals that cannot be corrupted. Good luck finding someone like that in todays world.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT???!!!
You are so typical of the people who are ruining this country.
If anything, Kennedy caused the nuclear missile crisis of 1962. Had he supported the Bay of Pigs invasion or called it off, then perhaps Castro wouldn't have felt compelled to bring the missiles to Cuba in the first place. Instead he changed the plans behind the backs of the CIA and totally screwed over everyone. Afterward, it cost the USA $millions in order to get all those guys out of Castro's torture chambers, not to mention the international embarrassment of the whole thing.
Family values? Didn't you ever see Marilyn Monroe singing "Happy Birthday, Mr. President"?
On top of all this, the Kennedy family was entirely corrupt. Most believe that Kennedy paid for the Union vote in the Southern states and had Nixon contested, he probably could have overturned the election.
Go smoke some more weed, dude. Get out your coloring books and keep talking crap about stuff you don't understand.

Kennedy caused the Bay of Pigs. He got us into the Vietnam war by putting the US ship (cannot remember the name) in the Gulf of Tonkin knowing damned well it would be attacked and then he could say American lives were lost and we have to get involved in the war. Kennedy was a hero? Kennedy had good public relations.

If by "saved the world from nuclear chaos" you mean the Bay of Pigs, Kennedy created that mess and then barely averted disaster. By taking a wimpy stance with the USSR, he gave them the signal that the US was weak. That prompted the USSR to ship nukes to Cuba, and we barely averted disaster thanks to Kennedy finally taking advice from Republicans.

no crackluver ... bush is killing hundreds of thousands of civilians and we, americans, are terrorizing an entire nation of people ... terrorists are not a big threat imo .. no more than they were years before 911. and certainly we could defend ourselves against terror attacks easily enough without invading the entire middle east ... but go ahead and live in perpetual fear of an enemy you cant even see and toss all your liberties to bush and blindly go about ur buisness in your perfect little world until one day you wake up to discover you live in a totalitarian police state.

Kennedy has his flaws but history has been kind to him. The Bush supporters will probably lobby Congress to amend the history books to paint their dumbass excuse for a leader in accordance with their vision of him.

Unlike Kennedy, Bush has family values, like he knows not to sleep with every woman that tickled his fancy,And when you do the right it usually means your going to be "unpopular".Most people i.e democrats don't understand this because they are too self serving.

ya u r right in one context that is bush has 2 b a family man who knows values.
but bush's policy on war against terror is absolutely fine. he is not a man of war and chaos. at least he is bold enough 2 fight against terrorism, b it after 9/11. lot of people that his iraq and afghanistan war was wrong. but i say that it is not possible 2 draw a line of whom 2 kill and whom not 2 kill when fighting against terrorism. terrorists r killing innocent people which is against huminity , while bush is killing terrorists which is in favor of huminity. i agree that in this process many times even innocent suffer but it is not possible 2 trace exactly who is a terrorist and who is not in such a situation. rather local people should help this fight against terror but they r not serious abt it.
so bush keep it up . good work.
