rh saunder- bush is about as competent financially as the ceo of enron. we were running a budget surplus under pres.clinton, he's ruined that with huge spending increases and tax cuts for the rich.

liljimi- how many people have to die and how many hundreds of billions of dollars do we have to spend before bush figures out this is a lost cause?

purple- do you really think bush couldn't have done more on katrina? even scarborough from cnbc said he could have done better and he's a conservative from a hurricane state.

are we there yet- thanks for actually answering the question none of the other bush supporters could come up with anything. i have to say that it's not our job to bring democracy to other countries and spend billions along the way.

deacon- do you really think that bush did his best to evacuate people (including many babies) who were stranded after the hurricane? good point on tort reform but that's about it.

We are a lot better off than if Gore had have been in office,we would already be a occupied country by Iran,and Iraq. And as far as Katrina ,how can that be blamed on Bush,the governor wouldn't let him come in for 3 days,the mayor sit on his *** and didn't do anything but grip. And this is not the horse and buggy days,we have very high tech medical equipment and procedures and they cost,he got the Medicare medication bill through. And I f Clinton hadn't have left Bush in such a big mess.we wouldn't have this war,he knew what he was leaving him,he is such a coward,just like he did when he ran to Canada instead of going into the service,and he's still running from his mistakes and now someone else is having to cover for him. And we are all having to pay for his stupidity,Clinton,what a joke

"Deficits at all time highs" = (Defending our Homeland while revising the Intelligence Comittee ' Oh yeah, No attacks 5 years and counting w/ OBL on the run!!!), "A war that cannot be won" = (Maybe you prefer IED's in your own backyard), "Stagnant economy" = (Unemployment is down since Bush started, do your homework), "Hurricane Katrina fiasco" = (Do you not recall the hundreds of thousands that wouldn't leave, not couldn't!!, wouldn't leave home!! And I don't think we can manipulate the weather just yet!), "Skyrocketing Health Cost" = ( Bush has tried to push Tort Reform), "The list goes on and on" = ( Yeah all the way to the bottom showing us all that GW is just a man doing his level best to lead us and you should be grateful for that.

Cry me a friggin river. The economy is steadily improving. Unemployment levels are dropping. What do you consider winning the war in Iraq? The Iraqi's wave a white flag and it's all over? That's not the point of fighting in Iraq. Health care costs are up because liberal bleeding heart judges allowed frivolous law suits generated by liberal lawyers to drive insurance costs for doctors through the roof during the Carter administration. The list doesn't go on but the Al Franken bullsh*t never stops.

The the religion of throatcutters were planning a 9-11 on the west coast when Bush Stopped all air traffic. He used diplomacy to end the Lybian WMD program, which also ended the Chad-Lybian war (since Lybia no longer had to invade Chad and in order to take its uranium ore there). Afghanistan And Iraq have democracies. Women can go to school in Afghanistan now, instead of being shot in the head at the FIFA soccer stadium in Kabul. Kurds no longer fear their annhilation from Saddam (turkey is another question), the marsh arabs of souther Iraq were not so lucky.

Better off than what or who? Some poor homeless person living under a freeway in the US, or a vet who can't get the medical help he deserves, or some mother's child in Afganistan or Iraq blown to bits by a bomb? Sure!

The country hasn't done well but I've made millions.
Of course I did even better under Clinton.
The point is that I don't credit either of them for my success or failure...or that of the country. We all get a little blame/credit and they get a tad more; the elected.

no, those that do have bad stats... like this fellow:
rhsaunder: the unemployment rate was around 3.9 at the end of 1999... it's around 4.5 now... higher number doesn't mean better in unemployment... and I think pay has actually decreased since then on average if you factor in inflation... some more are employed, but more don't have jobs too... and there are quite a few more people are in poverty too...

NOT A FU&%$KING CHANCE, ITS ALL LIES. And the sad part is, there are way too many people (americans) who buy it, believe it, support it. That is way more scary than any evil government scenario. So much for the land of the free, home of the brave huh? How 'bout "sheeple"?
