WASHINGTON, D.C.—“I’m a war president,” declared George W. Bush in a TV interview at the White House aired February 8 on NBC’s Meet the Press Sunday morning show. “I make decisions here in the Oval Office on foreign policy matters with war on my mind,” he continued. “And the American people need to know they got a president who sees the world the way it is.”
He also said before "I am the decider!"

Then whose best interest is he acting in? I've heard the big-business thing so much I want to hurl. HELLO it's AMERICAN BIG BUSINESS. YOU KNOW, THE PEOPLE WHO EMPLOY MOST OF US!
Oh, let's look at the whole picture. The stock market is up; the flaming terrorists have been thwarted at least 8 times since 9/11; taxes are down; al Quida is on the run; there hasn't been an attack on American soil since 9/11, although there have been attempts. WAKE UP!!! HE IS A WAR PRESIDENT, JUST LIKE FRANKLIN ROOSVELT WAS A WAR PRESIDENT, JUST LIKE HARRY TRUMAN WAS A WAR PRESIDENT, JUST LIKE ABRAHAM LINCOLN WAS A WAR PRESIDENT. WE ARE AT WAR WITH MUSLIM EXTREMISM AND THOSE BUGGERS WILL KILL YOU JUST AS DEAD AS ANY NAZI WOULD HAVE.
YES he is most definately the decider. That's exactly what we elected him to do, DECIDE. Billy Bob was too busy giving flute lessons to Monica to make a decision but Harry Truman had the famous "Buck Stops Here" sign on his desk. Do you really think that has changed?

He isn't. He is try to protect this country and at the same time clean up the mess Clinton made for 8 years. He spent to much time try to write his legacy even while President. His legacy is slowly crumbling.

Beats me.
I look at Bush Policy, like people stepping in dog cr*p on the sidewalk. They don't watch where there going and the next thing it's all over their shoe.
And that smell sticks with them.

Bill Clinton was a war president, too.
Only difference is, Clinton just didn't know it.
One terrorist attack after another against Americans, both at home and abroad... and Clinton did absolutely nothing.

I think your problem isn't so much Bush as a majority of your fellow Americans who do not agree with your views and who voted for Bush.
Bush won man. You have got to move on dot org.

It is like asking why didn't Germans see that Hitler wasn't acting in the best interests of Germany, when it was still possible to stop him.

For 49% of us (actually - looking at his polls, more like 60% of us) Don't approve of his tact.
Niether does the majority of the world.
Or half of the republican party.

Simply because he is acting in the best interest of the country. It is only hard for the cool-aid drinking progressive liberal so blinded by their hatred for GWB they can not discern what the word "is" is.
