Why is George W. Bush so passionate about helping the poor and minorities?

Question

What is George W. Bush so passionate about helping the poor and minorities? Also, why does he care more about the poor and minorities while Bill Clinton only cared about the rich and upper class?

Louis G,

I AM NOT Confused. What makes you think that I am confused?

I am a lady who is NOT JOKING. I am NOT ON DRUGS and I believe George W. Bush is the most passionate and helpful President towards the Poor and Minorites.

Why do some believe Clinton did a better job serving the poor and minorities? Clinton did a terrible job helping because he never kept his promises to them.

Answer 1

Republicans are the ones that truly help and care for the poor and minorities.

We want to give them school vouchers...which is a choice in where they send their kids to school. We want to ween people off of food stamps and gov handouts so they can prop themselves up and support themselves.

Libs on the other hand want to continue giving hand outs so ppl still vote for them.

Give a man a fish, he eats for a day (lib philosophy)...teach him how to fish, and he'll eat for a lifetime (conservative philosophy).

Answer 2

Can you name a single thing he has done for the poor? Other than just saying he did, can you site a SINGLE thing he has done?

He is not the president of the poor. The man was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and knows not what it is like to be poor. He does not care about the poor, because the poor is not his Republican base. It's a Republican ideal to not care about the poor, according to their philosophy of self-responsibility. I don't know where you get your opinion from, other than by thinking he's "a good Christian man" (which he's not). Not to say Clinton was all about helping the poor either, but at least he didn't favor the rich in tax breaks and sat back and did nothing as the disparity between rich and poor grows daily.

Answer 3

Definitely sounds like Bush's momma. I like her "They seemed to enjoy it" quote from the Superdome. FYI, all of America's presidents have been elitists. Very few, if any, of our pseudo-representatives actually gives two shakes about the citizenry.

Clinton taxed the rich far more than Bush, hence the "balanced" budget, of which Rummy, Cheney and Bush "misplaced" $3 trillion in Pentagon related money. (personally, I think it went to finance certain atrocities in America).

The biggest question is: Why would someone on Yahoo Answers laud George Bush, when Bush CAN'T RUN FOR PRESIDENT AGAIN???? He's now an official lame duck, as opposed to the corrupted duck he was before.

Sadly, I am a conservative, who refuses to align with either of the Corrupted Political Parties.

Answer 4

Do u really believe Bush is so passionate about helping the poor and minorities, or r u just playing nuts?
In case u believe so, I have a nice house to sell u in front of the beach in Colorado. it would be a fair deal for u honey

Answer 5

You're being sarcastic, right?

*Are you referring to the preposterous No Child Left Behind? without going into detail, NCLB in the end just gives extra money to rich parents!
*How does tax breaks for the rich help the poor?
*He signed a law making it harder to declare bankruptcy, which favors major companies.
*The minorities working for him? (Rice, Powell, Gonzalez) -- they're just pawns doing his dirty work.
*Look at the mess of Katrina. We can invade a country and displace their dictator but our leader inexplicably fumbled in helping hurricane victims in our own country?

Clinton was FAR from perfect, he had many faults, but at least he tried to reach out to the poor and minorities.

Answer 6

I'm not sure about passion.

But he did hire quite a few minorities into top government positions.

Hand-outs do not equate to compassion. Socialism ultimately makes everyone poorer (except for the socialist party - they get along just fine).

Bill Clinton's only minority hire was a secretary and I bet she was cute.

Liberal policy is designed to keep the poor poor, make the rich poor, and make liberals powerful.

Answer 7

I work with many of the poor and minorities that have been victimized by the "help" of Bush and the neo-cons.

If you're going to be an apologist for your dictator, you'd better pick a different topic. Or better yet--go to New Orleans' Ninth Ward and say that. Then we won't have to listen to your nonsense any more.

Answer 8

most of the participants failed to understand what you have in your mind. i fully agree with you.bush has a beautiful mind and a compassionate heart and that was why he could not see Iraqis suffering from miseries, and did mercy killing. i found the sarcastic caustic remarks about bush.

Answer 9

77 billion dollars in cuts to Medicaid hardly helps the poor.

Answer 10

Ahahahahahahahaha! Oh god, thanks for that... OK, I was gonna try and answer this logically, but being that you asked this in the first place, something tells me it would be about as useful as teaching a fly to tap dance... or something more pointless since a tap dancing fly would be pre-tty cool...

Answer 11

Great question. It's probably because he's such a noted philanthropist and humanitarian. I hear the Nobel Prize Comittee was talking to him earlier this year, and he turned them down because he's soooo humble!
