If you are against Bush, why don't you get involved in the government and try to change things?

Question

First off, I am for Bush, through and through. I have my reasons, but that is not the point of this question.

My point is, there are alot of people complaining about him, but they don't try to get off their rears and do something. Many of them don't have the education level or experience in politics to be able to handle a government job, yet they want to critisize someone who obviously does. If he didn't, he wouldn't have been elected and neither would those in congress.

It is easy to judge and say nasty things about the president, but I don't see any of these same people trying to do anything about it, other than complain.

I don't care if Bush tortures all those Bin Laden freaks. They deserve it. And he should tap any lines he wants, if it will help him catch terrorists.

Answer 1

Because there idiots, they don't have the intelligence or the education, I am sick of Bush bashers complaining about Bush, nobody is perfect and lets see how you would react if you had to deal w/some of the **** Bush has while he's been in office. Or would you perfer a president who on 9/11 just sat there getting a BJ from Monica Lewinsky, Bush stood up for our country would you idiots?

Answer 2

I'm against Bush, but also against most of the government. Some people see the government as part of the problem, not the solution. Getting involved in the government and all it's lies is not the only way to effect change. If you are such a Bush fan, why don't you "get of your rear" and go to Iraq and see if you can help him out with the fantasy mission? If you are so much against terrorist -- why don't you go lead a crusade into Afghanistan/Pakistan and find Bin Laden? Yeah, talk is cheap.

Answer 3

This is the biggest display of naivete I have heard in a long time.
I'm glad it is so "obvious" to you that Bush knows how to handle "a government job"- which one, dog catcher? And if he didn't have all this "know-how" you say he has, he wouldn't have been elected, you say? Do you happen to remember who his father is? And his oil ties, and all the other special interest groups that contributed to his campaign? They own him. And don't forget, that 2nd election was questionable.
Most of us who are unhappy with the president are intelligent, hard-working, educated, patriotic Americans, and many of us are Christians who continue to pray for our leaders. Would we be more patriotic to pretend we cannot see when our leaders are arrogant and greedy? They mask their true intentions with talk about democracy and freedom, because they know those are values we hold dear. Look around you, the percentage of Americans who no longer believe in Bush is rising. We believe in America, and we pray for the troops. But we don't support an administration that lies to us, does not represent us, and did not act on terrorist warnings appropriately before 9/11. If they had, most our problems could have been prevented.
Oh, don't worry, you will see many people taking action, not just complaining, because it isn't just the usual malcontents that are upset- it is intelligent, patriotic Americans who know the truth when they see it, and are not afraid to say so.

Answer 4

Yea, whats your complain about. Down with all that apposes us (foreign counties only) LOLOLOLOOLOOLLOLLOLLOOLL


Is this Canoodles Rice? Well, father Bush still runs our nation, dearie. His wife, Mrs. Bush is behind all the Manufacturing of Mrs. Fields Cookies. His son, young incoherent paddy little Bush have neck problems from too much too soon party favorites (prescriptive for better speech). And, it's always a good thing when your Vice-P can shoot someone and get fifteen minutes of air time without being harassed by local Washington authorities.
Our nation stands Strong with the Ultimate American family Mob. It's nice being for the Bushes and Jeb too. C. Heston, Pres of the Heavy Guns association is on his side too and i see nothing wrong with supporting our Pres...Nothing, you go boy!!.

Answer 5

YOu are the perfect example of a follower.

Someone who feels they can't do anything, so they settle for status quo, ALL the time. Always picks a winner.
YOU are obviously speaking for yourself because YOU don't have the education level, or experience in politics to be able to handle a government job"-- which is laughable seeing how oblivious you are to the fact that one absolutley doesn't need the credentials you think they do to get into office! The only thing Bush got for him is family ties and money.--
Scholars don't exactly pick politics as their first choice.
The smartest man who has run for office lately is Ralph Nader. and he hasn't got a chance next to the ultra rich two headed monster party.

Is it easy to judge and say nasty things about the president? If you think it's that easy, perhaps you should rethink why you are following him.

There are highly educated, EVEN RICH people, loud mouths who have connections and even political clout and even THEY can't change ONE thing worth a s**t. What does that say to you about your government. YOu are disillusioned in the power you think people hold--even if it's half of the population,,probably more if they only voted-- the apathetic masses who have given up all hope in our system and who can blame them really!!!
You are blind as a bat if you think that there aren't masses people a hundred times smarter than those who are in charge trying to change things. But unfortunatly it's smart doesn't count, only power does.
And you like to vote for the powerful and rich who are actually against the citizens and 100% for corporate profit. Bottom line is the the bottom line on wall street is more important than people's lives. They have convinced you somehow that that's not true and that they are actually "protecting' you-- which is a laugh when you think about it with their track record and all!
Incompetance and special interest all combined. But don't worry, you're just like most of the sheeple in America, you go along with the bullcrap on Fox and all the other false news and are safely sheltered from anything remotely disturbing or controversial.

Answer 6

We are involved. And we are going to vote out his regime and hopefully end this hatred fostered by such people as yourself. To say you are in favor of torturing someone that has not even been tried in a military or civilan court shows how closed-minded you are. A number of people that were captured and secreted away have been found after a couple of years to have been kidnapped by our govt without cause, and they were not involved in any terrorist activities. Wonder how many more are not guilty of anything, and have lost years of their life away from their families. Obviously our CIA and military intelligence is greatly flawed and can't be trusted to determine who is a terrorist or who is not. But it sounds like you can make that decision. So why don't you enlist and go over and replace one of our precious soldiers who is fighting a war we can never win, for a purpose that was lied about, and you can shoot all of those terrorists you see around you--maybe that widowed woman trying to sell trinkets in order to feed her children, or that child who is homeless and steals scraps in order to survive because we bombed his home and killed his family.

Answer 7

First of all to those who don't vote, you have no right to complain. Like it or not you are not going to change anything by not doing anything. Besides, considering the two that ran for president, Bush was the better man. For those who love to blame and point fingers for whatever reason, get involved, you may learn something.Vote,vote,vote,but do it with the right attitude.

Answer 8

Because it is WAY easier for these haters to criticize then to take action.

They base their opinions strictly on emotions and what they get from tabloid news...They are incapable of forming opinions of their own but rather mimic others around them like parrots.

They are all talk with no solutions...Back seat driving, hind sight is always 20/20, Monday morning quarter backs and nothing more.

These people have a dire need to try to prove how smart they are. They for some reason feel they are smarter then not only Bush but ANY world leader that disagrees with them....While they are working at the corner store. People with inferiority complexes console them selves by putting down those in a higher position than them. But in reality, don’t have a freakin clue. They base their opinions on emotions, not facts. Actually, they cherry pick the facts that suit their agendas and discard those that don't. They feel speculation, conspiracy theories and innuendo are the foundation of facts...Not what’s actually going on around them. Essentially in the end, they are nothing but puppets whose strings are connected to media. They are incapable of thinking beyond cable news and need to be spoon-fed what they think.

Sad but true.

Oh, I'm not a big Bush fan. In fact I think he's made some big mistakes...BUT, he knows stuff that NONE of us know so for me to have some misguided hatred for him would be unreasonable and a waste of my energy. You don’t become leader of the strongest nation on earth by being an idiot....Otherwise you'd have Michael Moore as president.

Oh and if this offends any one…What’s that saying?? “If the shoe fits….”

Answer 9

Well in a free society political criticism is possible if not absolutely necessary. There are a lot of critics of Bush who don't know any policies who should. But its their right to complain.

Overall maybe Bush being such a polarizing figure will add to the numbers who get out and vote

Answer 10

because most people do not have the incredible financial resources to take on that type of a job. To get that kind of money you need a lot of very wealthy friends and associates. They will gladly give you money to get elected, but then when you're in power, they expect that you will look after their interests so they can make even more money! Money, and lots of it, elects politicians, not good ideas. That's probably why so many people are cynical about your simplistic view of politics.
