Why aren't liberals more appreciative of the hardwork President Bush has done for this country?

Question

In all honesty, he's one of the best presidents America has ever had. In terms of Bush's place in history, he will be remembered alongside the greatest presidents including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Ronald Reagan, and a fellow Republican by the name of Abraham Lincoln. Now, it's impossible for me to list ALL Bush accomplishments with such a short amount of space, but I'll list a couple of things this great man has done.

1) Bush has reestablished good Christian Values in the White House, and America at large (Lord knows we needed it after the Clinton administration).

2) Bush has made us safe from terrorists through his audacious military efforts in Afghanistan and Iraq.

3) Bush has continuously fought for Middle Class Americans by cutting taxes. A move that also saved the Economy!

4) Bush has raised educational standards for our kids by starting the "no child left behind" program.

I can go on and on with Bush's accomplishments. There's just too many to mention!

Answer 1

I presume that this is satire and irony, although somewhat subtle.

Answer 2

1) You can say what you wish, but Bush is hardly the beacon of "christian values".
2) The military escapades of this administration have made the U.S. the number one target of terrorists.
3) What tax cut? There has been no tax cut. The middle class is the most at risk group in America today.
4) No Child Left Behind sets absolutly no standards whatsoever. There are no standards set anywhere in the Act.
GW Bush is one of the most incompetent presidents in history. All he has achieved is failure to deliver on any program he has promoted.

Answer 3

This is a joke, right? Almost 4,000 soldiers have been killed in a war against a country that was not responsible for 9/11 and did not have WMD. Instead, this administration diverted our soldiers and resources from the real threat: Al Qaeda. Is there any logical reason why they didn't send 140,000 troops to Afghanistan ? They misled us into war in Iraq and did not have a decent plan for replacing Saddam Hussein. Now the lives and efforts of our brave soldiers and not to mention, hundreds of billions of dollars of taxpayer's money are being wasted. Consequently, these resources are not available to deal with more important problems.

Iran is developing nukes. Our borders and ports are still not protected. America 's influence and moral authority have been diminished. Our traditional allies are distancing themselves from us. We cannot save our own people during natural disasters. We torture. Our country is divided. Ideology is now more important than science. Anti-americanism is rampant through out the world. Our national debt is spiraling. Heath insurance is more and more expensive. Instead of taking steps to become energy independent, we allow the oil companies to write our energy plan and continue to send billions to regimes that hate us (making them more powerful). In other words, our country is less safe (a reality supported by the government's own report, the National Intelligence Estimate) and brazenly corrupt.

PS. 9-11 happened on Bush's watch!

And Bush is one of the best presidents? Please pass some of that stuff you're smoking, my friend!

Answer 4

First, your question implies Bush is a liberal (ugh) he's a conservative. Ted Kennedy (ugh) is a liberal. 2nd Bush purely feels like an fool. He does lack the air of secret that Clinton has yet makes up for this with integrity and morals. Examples of what liberalism will do to this united states of america are -end inner maximum possession of firearms -enormous tax will boost -marked boost in the unemployment fee -extra tax will boost to pay for the unemployed -knee jerk reactions to each concern provided to those human beings(ugh) It isn't fantastically.

Answer 5

Well, Mr. Monkeyballs, you must be a recipient of bushes huge tax break. Say, a savings of $85,000 in federal taxes?
My middle class tax break was "0", single no income other than a pension & social security. bush & cheney, great christian followers, appealed to the christian right in a very clever ruse.(remember the christian cheney, you know the guy that received more than one deferment from the Viet Nam war because he had "more important things to do". And also told a US senator to go **** himself on the senate floor).
Yessir my kind of leader. Do you know why all the neocons have deserted the great "unite-er"? You know, the same good people that talked the weak minded bush into invading Iraq with a bundle of fabricated lies. Let see, bush, the same guy who wanted to give 12 million aliens amnesty with total disregard to our borders. Wanted to sell our ports to a middle east arab country. And last but not least, the sense less sending of our young people to fight & DIE in a bogus war. Yessir, he's my guy too!!!

Answer 6

1) What does Christian values have to do with running a country? I suppose lying to his country is one of those values? Or how about referring to our Constitution as "just a g-damned piece of paper"?

2) How does one prove Bush has made us safe from terrorists, especially when terrorist attacks against Americans continue to this day?

3) This middle class person isn't reaping much benefit from Bush's cutting of taxes. As for saving the economy...

4) Unfortunately, the "No Child Left Behind" fiasco has turned our schools into testing centers focused on teaching kids a limited set of skills to pass these tests. Additionally, NCLB focuses on math and reading skills; there's more to school than just math and reading. Let's also not forget NCLB was also not fully funded.

Answer 7

1) This is a democracy not a theocracy.
2) 9/11 did happen under Bush's administration
3) A $300 tax return didn't do anything for me.
4) I teach, there was no raising of anything except the amount of time kids take standardized tests.

Answer 8

1. Christian values like war, revenge and greed
2. He created more terrorist than killed, for pete sake, he is the biggest terrorist.
3. Middle class? Oh the illigal immigrants you mean?
4. no child left behide has never been seen through, easy to preach but that program is a mess. Google it.

I can go on too...

Answer 9

As you can see, it is a democratic requirement to slander all republicans, especially the president. There is some truth to the rants but then you can see that facts, truth, and proof are often replaced by rumor, innuendo, and sometimes outright lies. The republicans do it too, but they aren't as accomplished.

Answer 10

Oh yeah! We need this creep to put us more trillions of dollars in debt. Sacrifice our soldiers for Cheney's oil, cutting taxes for the rich cohorts of his and no child left behind are all waiting for their money.
He has made us UNSAFE!
He made terrorists thrive!

Answer 11

Last I heard there were over 3,700 reasons. Oh, wait, 3 more Americans were killed in Iraq this morning, so add those in.
