I personally like my president, but some people don't so they try and ask these stupid questions, that they could answer themselves. Like how can we fix what bush did, <--- that was the stupidest, in my opinion.

OK guys..one more time
on 9/11 every single American was ready to fihgt and wanted to grab their pitchforks and torches...but now you change your minds?
what crap is that? Are you guys in there with the president? so you knwo exactly what he has a hand on, or do you just know what people tell you?
President Bush did what anyone would do. He sent this country to war, with our enimeies who killed over 3,000 American citizens, or did you guys just forget about that?

When you are frustrated and just a young child - you can act up and kick your mom and scream in the public arena. I believe this country is divided 50/50 with people who have extreme points of view and are boisterous. What convoluted this is that the majority of the populace is not extreme but middle of the road. The loud squeaky wheel does get the grease. I'll ask some questions
1) Relatives of the 3,000 people who died on 9/11 what are their feelings
2) How many insurgents in Iraq have been killed compared to the 3,000 US troops?
3) How is the economy doing? Note under Clinton the national debit was not paid off it was only forecast to be paid off.
4) The democrats took over both houses - besides fighting with themselves and complaining what have they accomplished?
Not every American is part of the I hate Bush group, just one side of the extremist are make that pep-rally talk

The important thing that irritates voters is the lack of honesty. Certainly he has reacted to the terrorists after 9/11. Certainly he has worked on the economy and done some of those things well. But I have a problem with him playing dictator and ultimate ruler. The information that he gives out is often wrong. He takes a stand and it is him against who ever disagrees with him. The White House is more close minded since Nixon. He does have loyalty to friends but has a head of Justice who fires 8 justices for apparent political reasons. He just changes laws signed by him and approved by Congress by issuing position statements. The Iraq war has been a disaster because of a lack of planning and implementation. We have gotten our nose in everyone's business and made enemies out of even allies. He has thrown out the Geneva convention and imprisoned and tortured people that were in the wrong place at the wrong time. His administration botched the Katrina relief early on. He is disregarding citizen rights in the name of security. He will not listen to people who have honest opinions that are not completely in tune with his. And his Vice President has kept all of his friends very wealth. The very ones that are concerned about litigation and are moving to Dubai.

I think Generals have been allowed to speak underneath Bush provided that legal. Bush fired extra Generals and protected up extra lies than any president I recognize of in my lifetime, adding Nixon and Reagan. Generals are underneath a Chain-of-Command of which the President of the United States is the Commander in Chief. You do not cross round your commanders and that didn't begin with Obama. Selective leaks are unacceptable as they might threat lives. If you have been ever within the army you could recognize that. If anybody has placed a muzzle on them it's the Secretary of the Defense, Robert Gates! Bush used to be a manipulate freak...and a fascist!

He has done a horrible job as the leader of our country. Granted he has faced 1 very tragic incident but his handling of everything after that fateful day has been very questionable. His war on terrorism is a good idea as the war on drugs. It's an impossible war to fight and even harder war to win, yet it's a war he thought was necessary for what? Personally I think we the public this idiot since we voted him in for a second, so I'm not calling for his removal but at the same time I am a fan of this President or his administration.

Let's see, he should remove the troops immmediately and he should have not got involved, besides Iraqis are gonna win just the same way the Americans lost to the Vietnamese Conflict war, concerned about the middle class disappearing, taxes, better health care, inflation, other alternatives for gas prices, more education funds, decrease education tutuitions, a way to reduce global warming.

Because people simply want the easy way out. Taking a stand is hard. It requires courage and resolution and willingness to stick things out when the going gets tough. It requires adabtability when things don't go as planned. It requires leadership as the proverbial ship sails into uncharted waters.
Running away from Iraq, public timetables, and political bickering is the easy way out. hating rich people for their success is the easy way out compared to working hard. Wishing is far easier than doing. Bush has become the scapegoat for all who can't muster up the personal courage to "do."

First of all.. yes, after 9/11, everyone was united and wanted to go after the people responsible. And they did.. and they voted for it... and our troops went in and got into Afghanitstan.
In no time, Bush stood on a ship, in his fancy flight gear, which made him look stupid, by the way.. and declared everything taken over. Mission Accomplished. Of course, later we learned that was not true.. nothing was settled.. Bin Ladin was not captured, the ?Taliban was not disbanded.. nothing was accomplished... and United Nations troops are dying there still.
In a blink however, he lied and said Oh my God, we have to go after Iraq... they have weapons of mass destruction and made it sound as tho, they were minutes away from bombing the U.S. Once again people, sort of believed him. Weapons inspectors kept saying this wasn't true.. but Washington kept that from the people.. until he was already in a full fedged war in Iraq.. and until he got Saddam..
Saddam was his only aim.. he didn't and doesn't give a damn about the Iraqi people.. he wanted Saddam for daddy and oil for Haliburton.
So you tell me.. you like your president? Do you like someone who lies to you over and over.. who is afraid himself to fight, but sends more and more troops to die for a lost cause. Do you like a man who has now brought the country of Iraq into such dire straits that it wil take them many, many years to recover.... and they will hate Americans even more.
He has done us irreperable damage, I'm afraid... so you just ask yourself, why do you defend him. How can you defend a man, who for selfish reason has allowed nearly 3500 of our young people to die...I will never understand how anyone can defend him.

Bush is an incompetent figurehead for a bunch of war profiteering motherf**kers.
The sooner he is gone, the better.

As with opinions, people are entitled to theirs. I don't particularly like the animosity shown towards those who don't agree with Bush. I don't care for him, I have many reasons not to, but I can't say that?
You have your reasons for liking him, I have mine for not. But don't call me stupid because I don't agree with you.

Liberals want Bush out because they cannot defeat him. He has not given in to him. Liberals cannot win in elections so they try and criminalize conservatism.
See Gingrich
