Why do so many (both politicans , actors and comedians) take pride in mocking Bush?

Question

Does everyone forget 9/11? I suppose that all who died on that day were just in the wrong place at the wrong time? If you listen to the baldwins of the world that is the impression you get. I mean I feel band for the familys that loose loved ones in the war on terror, should we just forget about the victims who perished in NY,Washington and PA? I would love to shut up the uninformed cindy sheens of the world. 9/11 forever in our hearts. I am sad to say that these "anti-war" anti Bush people are Americans. To all the critics of Bush (NBC) France is still accepting cowards.

Answer 1

Those people who mock Bush are haters. They never really cared about 9/11.
They hate the military.
They became rich in America, but still hate America.
Good question. Thank you.

Answer 2

Because they are liberals who can't get over the fact that he won the elctions. They think that they are speaking for the majority but they are really only reflection the opinion of majority of thier friends. Read the book 'Bias' and you will understand, There is a section about a lib who said she didn't know anyone who voted for Bush and that is because she hangs or associated only with like-minded liberal peoplewho voted as she did. Actors and comedians usually only have actors and entertainers as friends and being liberal is accepted and being conservative get you ostrecized. Look at all the attention given to Mel Gibson's recent incident with the police if that had been Martin Sheen or Ted Danson you would never of heard about it. When was the last time you saw Tom Selleck on a talk show or in a movie? He doesn't get much exposure because he is openly a Republican Conservative.

Answer 3

You seem to take an attack on Bush as an attack on you or America and that is just silly. It is our right as Americans to mock the President or whoever we want. Politicians are always going to do their thing. Those who are in the same party as the prez will generally not make fun of him, while those who are of a different party usually will mock him. This is true of both republicans and democrats. As for actors, well, recently they feel that it is their jobs as role models or whatever to give their opinions on everything. Can't say I neccessarily agree with it but it is their right to say what they want, and our fault as E!-watching, celebrity-worshipping public that we are. If we didn't give them this power, they wouldn't have a camera in their face everytime they wanted to bash the president. As for comedians, are you serious??? Were you under a rock when the Monica thing went down with Clinton? Comedians make jokes, that is what they do. No one escapes, especially someone like the US president. Trust me, republican or democrat, the jokes and mocking will keep on coming. Instead of getting so ticked off, If I were you, I would get used to living in a country where people can have differing opinions and the government stands up for those rights that allow people to have them. To all the anti-freedom people, North Korea is still accepting mindless drones.

Answer 4

I must admit I don't really like Bush, but I don't hate him either. I will never forget 9/11, though, and no matter how many anti-Bush people are around, I can always think back too this question and how it outlines the truth about what's going on. You're a good soul.

Answer 5

What the heck has the 11.th September got to do with mocking Bush? He's made the highest possible political (and real) capital out of it. He has kept his popularity at a very high level by making people believe he is conducting a war on terror, while he invaded and devastated a country that had nothing to do with it, was in fact one of the few secular countries in the region.
What about the victims there?? What about the women there who are being forced out of public life by the same mechanisms that work in the US against thinking people?(if you don't conform with us, you're a traitor) Do you think Americans are worth more than other people? I don't.
As for mocking Bush you should be grateful for any well known American doing it. At least people in other countries can see you're not all a herd of sheep.

Answer 6

First of all, learn how to spell before you post a question--". . . familys that loose loved ones . . ." ". . .Cindy Sheens . . ."

You are uninformed and ignorant. Who has forgotten about
9-11? The anti-war movement is driven by undisputed facts--Iraq had absolutely nothing to do with 9-11. Even Bush has repeatedly admitted this. Although when he was soliciting support for his unjust war, he lied and said that Saddam was tied to 9-11. This is not conjecture or left-wing rhetoric. Anyone who's been paying attention has heard the audio tapes of Bush contradicting himself. Iraq never had WMD's, nor did they have anything to do with 9-11.

In conclusion, take a remedial spelling class and do a little research before you ask an asinine question. You're a moron.

Answer 7

One of the freedoms we have in this country is freedom of speech and that means, we can talk about these people.

I can remember from back in the 60's, every president we have ever had, was made fun of in one way or another. Nixon, Carter, LBJ, Reagan, Clinton and the Bushes all have been the butt of jokes, monologues and the such in stand up comedy.

Is it wrong?? Not really. Its a way for these people to make money. Is it wrong that actors stand up and preach their beliefs?

NO, people watch them and listen to them for their acting, not their political action. Those that scream and shout the loudest, end up a falling star in the end.

Answer 8

whats wrong with you?!?! Just because ppl make fun of Bush does NOT mean that they are unamerican!! Bush is a loser and its fun to watch the great comedians make poke fun at him (like Jon Stewart on the Daily Show). I can hate Bush and support the troops at the same time. And i don't think any American will ever forget 9/11.

So what im saying is you don't know what you are talking about. A person does not have to like Bush or support his decisions to be considered a "good American"

Answer 9

We've been fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq for 3 1/2 years:

Osama Bin Laden is still having tea (and dreaming about Whitney Houston).

There was no logical reason other than a hidden agenda for invading Iraq. Now our "hero" tells us that if we leave Iraq,it will be conquered by the enemy -well that is damn brilliant! Saddam kept his country from being conquered by Iran(the enemy). So why in the hell did we put the Shi-Ites in power FOR Iran,knowing fully well that they will unite with Iran? OR could it be that our "hero's" didn't do their homework BEFORE they invaded Iraq?

If you ask the Iraqi Sunnis or the Shi-Ites what is an "Islamic-Fascist" they wouldn't know what the hell you're talking about - they are just fighting a very traditional battle for control of their country. They are not in tune to our political schemes to create a new Boogie man of the month to scare our people.

You bleeding heart commandos should show your support by going to that "paradise" that you have created (tragically sacrificing the lives of our soldiers and using borrowed money to the tune of 3 billion dollars per week to pay for it)
Where "You will be met with flowers and dancing in the streets"..

Answer 10

Do you see war as the answer to any of the situations you listed above?

Is it possible that Bush has promoted and executed the wrong solution in at least some of these cases, and therefore deserves criticism?

Being loyal doesn't mean agreeing to incompetence. The president is not the USA; he is a hired, elected official who should be held continuously accountable (criticized) by the citizens of this country.

Or did they skip this part in middle school civics class, as seems to be happening so much with all the standardized tests taking up time anymore?
