Bush bashing its acually not good for American's Image?

Question

is this true i mean other countries respect there leaders and others. the image for iraq was already gone before bush was in office and iran same thing.

Thats what i'm talking about calling him nazi hitler satan that is being childish and wrong.

I did respect Clinton when he was office even I didn't agree what he did in office i didn't want him dead or called him a nazi.

SRA AFIN At last someone that backs there answer up with facts we don't have that much here at least you look on both sides not like all kool aid drinkers who agrees on everything they say.

amazin'g good point most people don't even no about politics and say stupid stuff and puts there foot in there mouth.

Jeff P your wrong they do he listens he just doesn't agree with them like he said before Bush didn't want just Yes man.

CC not true first there was Jimmy carter who did nothing about the attacks and talked himself to death and got nowhere then Clinton first was the twin towers in 1993 did nothing but went to somalia aka Black Hawk Down. Theres Pretty Blame to go around not just Bush.

Answer 1

You're right. We look pretty immature.

Answer 2

1- Bush will never understand that, he is too stupid
2- The violence is caused by a poor, frustrated people who never had their undustrial revolution, which would have created an economic infrastructure
3- It is not bashing if it true
4- Since Bush has invaded Iraq, terrorist memership has INCREASED by alarming number, making the world a very unsafe place.
5- The CIA reported there was NO connection between Iraq and terrorism

Answer 3

Bush has met with leaders all on his own with no one to hold his hand, and they don't seem overly impressed with him, so I don't think it matters too much if we were to all sing Hallelujah when his motorcade passes by. The time when we could control a presidents meetings with foreign dignitaries and keep him in the back room for trade treaties is gone, at his every appearance is a TV crew and what he say and how he says it goes out to the world. Not all other countries respect their leaders, but here we have all been treated to his incompetence and even if you agree with his politics he leaves you shaking you head and wondering how he got where he is.

Answer 4

I'm sorry, I do not agree that my opposition to his policies in Iraq equal bashing. To me, bashing is something that is done without thought or facts to support it. I disagree with our President's decisions and policies in Iraq, and I have a right to do so. It is George Bush that has trashed America's image around the world, and our reputation. I look to the next President to restore our good name around the world and clean up the mess that he has made in the Middle East. Is it bashing to say Iraq is in chaos? No, it's a fact. Is it bashing to say that George Bush didn't have a viable exit plan or plan for the aftermath of our invasion? No, it's a fact.

People in other countries are asking how we can continue to support our President's current war policies, they aren't asking why we are rejecting his war policies or why 70% of us disapprove of his actions. THAT they fully understand.

EDIT: Where did I say we should lose this war? Don't you understand that the rest of the world has already lost trust in us thanks to George Bush? If you don't believe me, just click on England's YA avatar and try asking those in Europe. Those who oppose Bush and his policies are not seeking to lose the war. They are seeking an alternative to Bush's failed policies that can give us some measure of success. You are buying lock stock and barrel the far right's rhetoric of "with us or against us," and that's all it is - rhetoric. Get it through your head any way that it can get in: Those who oppose George Bush do not want us to lose in Iraq - they want us to be successful in Iraq, and are able to see that the current policy isn't bringing us success.

Answer 5

See this is a tough question, People always complain about the leadership of ones country. The thing hear is depending on what party you are on is what the press will be favorable to them or not. plus the U.S. press has the best means to project it's opinion all over the world as they see fit. As a Nation we don't and shouldn't care about other countries thought of us. Since we are the only country that does everything for everyone at anytime tells you that Bush bashing by the press does hurt Bush and America

Answer 6

Since most people in most countries wouldn't dare criticize their leaders for fear of losing their freedom or their lives I doubt there is much of any comparison. For those we can compare with yes, they do criticize. UK is one where people are really on the case of Tony Blair for the participation in Iraq. Also you must remember there is a difference between respect and criticism. Just because someone doesn't agree with a leader does not mean they don't respect the leader. Sometimes people see the world far to simply as in black and white that they can't understand that concept.

The United States and other countries used to respect our leaders but GWB has not earned anyone's respect as he has given none to anyone else thus he gets very little, if any, from within his own country as well as other countries.

Answer 7

Well regardless of your personal stance it is good look at it this way:

If you have no confidence in your leader, other nations will certainly not- if you voted him in, no one else is going to have more confidence in him than you so if you do not have much or any then no one else will.

Answer 8

sorry guy you must have been asleep for the past 6 years bush is a moron and bloody dangerous with it to think he's the man with his finger on the nuclear trigger god help us all

Answer 9

Other countries respect their leaders? You mean we are the only one's in the entire WORLD that doesn't respect their leader? Come on. This happens all the time. Bush ruined our image way before we started disrespecting his decision making. We need to protest our leaders when they do a poor job to let them know that it is unacceptable.

Answer 10

'Bush bashing' is the only thing that gives America a shred of dignity on the world stage.

If all the people in the US respected that idiot, then all credibility that the US once had would disappear.

Everyone [that matters] outside of the US recognizes Bush as the dirt that he is.

Answer 11

Baby, Bush is the worst thing there could possibly be for the American image, so nothing else really matters. His opponents and critics are the only good in that image.
