I feel both. I feel sorry for them, because they obviously are weak and scared. They can't bring themselves to admit that they made a bad mistake in backing Bush. These poor people spend their days trying to keep at bay the fact that Bush is a screw up. How awful it must be to live with the knowledge that they have hurt thier country with their ignorance.
But I also feel like they deserve hostile treatment. For supporting a President that lied to us to get in a war. That still refuses to admit he's wrong, because he wants to save political face. Bush and his supporters keep talking about "supporting the troops", while at the same time those troops are dying in an unnecessary war. The national debt. continues to rise. Bush wants to give businesses even more tax breaks, in exchange for a hike in minimum wage that is long overdue. That makes me mad.
So do you feel sorry and mad at the same time like I do at Bush supporters ? Or maybe, just one or the other ?

I pity them and am angry at them.
I feel bad because its like man how can you be that delusional to still support the man.
At the same time though it makes me super angry that people still support him just because he is the President, the worst people though are the ones who honestly believe he is doing what he needs to do to keep this country safe.
Its like what does Bush have to do to lose the support of those people?

I feel neither. The American people, as a whole chose Bush. Those who wished him out should have been more forceful in their campaigning, mor enumerous at the polls. We live in a nation where the majority rules. The majority spoke and not once, but twice elected Bush to the presidency. The people who really have no reason to complain or to cheer are those that did not vote, over forty percent of the voting elligible population. I do not feel sorry for them either. It is all about choice. We chose the president that makes choices for us.

Yes. The nit-whit Bush-haters continue to condemn the man who has given us the lowest taxes and the best economy we've had in years, reduced unemployment dramatically,given us the most healthy stock market in years, has killed or imprisoned more terrorists or would-be terrorists than we ever could have in a police action on our own streets, kept us free from attacks here on our soil,( and did this with our soldiers instead of our women and children and elderly ),and has established a military and air base right in the middle of the middle east. These bases represent a military front to fight against an uncivilized enemy who has declared that he intends to kill all of us because we are "infidels".

I feel sorry for anyone who debates U.S. politics. Where do our "facts" come from anyway? How do YOU really KNOW what is true and what is propaganda? America is being lied to. For those who don't realise, THERE IS MORE TO IT!!! Foreign politics and policy, big business and the church to name a few. Why does anyone have the right to debate whether Bush is a bad president? We put him there as a matter of convenience. We citizens have failed each other. We argue... pro-choice right to life...pro-gun anti-gun...church and state... and so on and so on. Does it matter? Ask yourself this. Why am I fighting those in the trenches with me when I should be battling the worst enemy of them all? Those who hold power over us were put there by us. It will never change. We will never let it. We do not want control over our world because of fear. Fear of responsibility. Fear of change. Fear of actually having to discover what we are truly made of. Fear of losing material objects and having to discover new and more manual ways to supply ourselves with instant gratification. We are cowards. It is inevitable that we shall lose our place on the world stage because we lack the courage to take what is truly wrong and make it right. We are too afraid to do exactly that which made us a great and prosperous nation, REBEL. DEFY. FIGHT. A nation of whinners and crybabies. We deserve everything we have coming to us. Maybe once it's too far gone we will finally be able to see the forrest for the trees.

Terrorists have been around a long time and it became personal on 9/11. The recruiting lie is just a left wing scare tactic.

I feel sorry for the Bush Bashers, blindly following the talking points on a journey that is weakening the country and making the world a safer haven for the Islamic Fascist terrorists who have sworn to kill all non believers. There is no place for them in the New Islamic World and they will learn this the hard way!

This is a great question! I don't feel sorry for them at all. They are blind lemmings, and they are endangering us all. The only thing that will save us from the Globalists and their New World Order nightmare, is for enough of the people in this country to wake up, and stand together..... united against these inhumane criminals who want to enslave us all, or even eliminate about 80% of the population. These people.....and Bush is one of them (not the smartest one, of course--but still one of them)....don't care anything about any of us. They only care about their fellow haves and have mores. They think of the rest of us as mere serfs, or chattel. They would just as soon weed most of us out, as look at us. Bush wants to be two of them, and that is why he makes such a good puppet!!!! You Bushtards are kidding yourselves if you think he cares about any of you , unless you happen to be one of the haves or the have mores!!!!

Not a big fan of Bush but it is obvious his supporters have money, more overall than democtratic supporters. So if you are among the poor or the folks so educated they cannot think outside academia you will consider Bush supporters a threat. Reality is most presidents are not true leaders and this country is ran by powerful groups, who pasify/placate the few loud (who do not represent the mainstream) and then go on and do what they want to keep themselves in money and power.

How does "feeling sorry" enter into the equation of politics and war? That is the mentality that encourages the circle jerk of hand holding kumbaya singers.....

War is hell. I never heard of a war where people were not killed. Remember 911, that is what the war is about.
