I just read a book written by Morris Berman that I found really interesting, and I want to compare what he thinks and what you say.

mmm, I'm feeling a lot of anger from you guys!!! I don't think any of you have read a Morris Berman book right? Well, I really don't have anything to say about him and this is not for school ok?, I just wanted to know what do you think about him, as you're leader.

"Honorable President?" Bush? Oh my ....

Psst ... let me let you in on a secret ... Look at Morris Berman's last title "Dark Ages America: the Final Phase of Empire (2006)" most people in the US aren't reading anymore, hence "Dark Ages ...."

Bring our troops home and get Bush the hell out of office and send his *** to Iraq.

In the past century, despite 2 world wars, America has been home to a sort of 'ruling class.' Bear in mind, they are not rulers in the traditional sense, but wealthy, influential families whose influence has had great impact on American government, from town, to city, to county, state, and national level. Nearly every other country on the planet knows from experience what I'm talking about.

Americans, in the last 60 years, have reaped the benefits of the hard labor of their forefathers, and have reveled in a society of wealth and prosperity. Social memory in our technological age is short. We existed, for a while, in an era unrivalled for its achievements since ancient Rome.

Dubya is the product of such an influential family, who came to power with a mighty economic and political machine behind him. The only thing that has stood in his way during his time in power has been the dreams of our founders. Despite the comfortable bubble of American existance since WWII (I discount Vietnam and Korea only in the sense that they occured long ago enough that their memory has faded from the absolute forefront of collective American consciousness) Americans have ALL cut their eyeteeth on an ideal that is dying hard. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal..." I'm female, and an atheist, and cynical, and my faith in my country has been all but broken in these last few years, but those words still have the power to move me.

Dubya is an example of the American dream taken to heart on a very skewed, very personal level. He's been groomed all his life, in one form or another, to be in control. He's had all the advantages of a wealthy upbringing. He grew up thinking that he belonged to a righteous group existing within a righteous, powerful country, one that saw things his way. He's had all the advantages that wealth and power can offer. And, because of that , he disconnected on a very crucial level.

He has no connection with the reality of MY America. The one that let me, as a single female, a high school dropout from a hardcore religious background, fight my way alone to a happy living in a beautiful city. The one that taught me that the wisdom of our founders didn't just extend to all men, but to all people,from all walks of life, all beliefs, who are willing to work hard and excel. The one that taught me that I didn't have to be just like everyone else, act like everyone else, believe like everyone else, to have a good life. The one that taught me that with the right foundation, we humans are capable of incredible grace, and fortitude, and sacrifice, and integrity. The one that taught me to recognize falseness when I see it.

His sense of honor, and his sense of what this country is all about, was created and existed its whole life in a bubble that existed outside the reality of most Americans' experience. Through political gamesmanship, he has twisted the love all Americans feel for our country into an unrecognizeable thing, and utterly despoiled our honor and integrity.

When he came into power, he said the right things; he had people working for him who put the words in his mouth, who saw average Americans as a pawns to be played, and play us he did.

I take it as a hopeful sign that he has been in office half a second term, and our whole county is in a uproar over his governance. We have been so fortunate, so protected, for long enough, I think the current maelstrom of unrest is actually a healthy awakening.

He is what can happen if America, and all she stands for, fails. He is our worst nature come to power. I hope, with all my heart, that we can be forgiven for our lapse, and that he and his ilk will not preside over our country again. I hope we have learned our lesson.

I did not vote for him because I think there are way better choices. HOWEVER, it would do not good to wish he would fail, because I live in America, so I hope he figures stuff out and does a better job from now on.

Our president doesn't respond to pathetic attacks like yours. Do you know why that is?

You're a nothing and a nobody, and your opinions are based on irrational hatemongering. You aren't mature enough to debate.

I can only say that I did not vote for him, I do not like his policies, I don't believe he is honest, and I am counting down the days until he gets out of office. Thanks for asking. What do you think of him?

I try not to make judgements on a job that I would not be willing to do myself.
