Question for Bush haters?

Question

I am no fan of Preident Bush and believe he is not a good president. ( just thought I would clarify that for you) Does this hatred affect your everyday lives and does a day go by where you dont think about it? Finally has all enjoyment of life stopped for you because of this hatred? I am no being a smarta**, this is a serious question.

Answer 1

Hhhhhuuuh...you said Bush hater...Is that like being gay or something?

Answer 2

It's not a serious question, it's a slanted question.

It's a GOP spin point, that people that disagree with Bush's agenda "hate him", like it's some arbitrary hatred with no basis behind it.

I don't hate Bush. I don't hate the Detroit Lions either. But both are miserable failures taking their nation (or their fans) in the wrong direction. The real hatred seems to be the neocons that call anyone who disagrees with them "terrorist lovers" or "un-American".

But like all other things, the pendulum eventually swings back and the right wing crazies will again return to the back burner (or closet as it seems).

Answer 3

I wouldn't call myself a "Bush hater," but I know a lot of people on here would, because I disagree strongly with a great deal that he has done over the last 6+ years and I think he has harmed the USA and its government in ways no president since Nixon ever managed.

It's not "my hatred" for Bush that often haunts my thoughts, but what Bush is in fact doing wrong that inserts itself on my everyday life. I am worried about my nephews and students who are serving overseas. I feel strongly that as Americans, we owe it to our servicemen to stay vigilant on how they are being treated, not to just kick back and forget them. Vigilance means paying attention on a regular basis.

Has all enjoyment of life stopped?! Hardly! I have my careers as a professor and as a novelist, I have my friends and family, etc. Mostly, there's just a niggling sense of guilt in the background that, as a citizen, I shouldn't allow other people to suffer (American servicemen, millions of innocent Iraqi refugees) because of what my own government is doing.

ETA: The number of people posting that all liberals are "obsessed" shows an alternate obsession that I find fascinating--does anyone else?

Answer 4

First if i'm a Bush hater you're a Bush kiss a$$. Bush has as lots duty for the monetary device, or extra desirable than any President going lower back to Carter. His politics and taxation regulations, surpassed by capacity of a conservative congress, helped to create this monetary meltdown. Banks have somewhat some fault, we agree. issues hit the fan way before 2006, you're a conservative and your question is in protection of Bush. collectively as we had a democrat congress the majority grew to become into very slender and Bush had the veto, verify YOUR American background. The war in Iraq grew to become into in accordance with lies, way high priced and positioned u . s . in monetary dire straits dude. That unlawful war grew to become right into a catalyst to the devaluation of the U. S. dollar, a burden on people who served to look after a lie. Iraq had not something to do with 911, so your budding democracy is incomprehensible. I hate Bush by way of fact of his politics and his administration, what he did grew to become into set our united states of america backwards. He has cowards such as you afraid of their very own shadows protecting him on Iraq. Did those WMDS ever get discovered? advance up, Bush would be our united states of america's absolute worst president, bar none. We kicked your ilk to the decrease in 2008, you at the instant are moot.

Answer 5

Not really. Although it's hard to ignore the carnage on the evening news everynight. It's hard to ignore the massive trade deficits and outsourcing of jobs that have occured on his watch. It's hard to ignore the insane cost of healthcare & housing, the rising cost of food and energy and education and property taxes, while the government call inflation 2% per year and my salary falls behind with every passing month. It's hard to ignore his ultra-liberal stance on spending and immigration while Americans are drowning in debt and loosing blue collar jobs every day.

The worst thing is: I started working in TECH field in 1999. I first got caught in layoffs from the TECH bust in late 2002 - the entire company was laid off in 11 rounds over 18 months. When I finally got back to work, I could no longer afford to buy a house. I look on the news and America is hated globally; our soldiers are dying for nothing.

It's hard to ignore. I am a conservative. But I have given up on America and have decided to not have children.

Answer 6

I don't even think of him unless I see him on TV or read about him in the paper. I'm more likely to be angered by the legal changes that have been brought about since he became president, such as the tax cut for the rich that only translates to $200.00 extra annually in my pocket but that increases the national debt at at rate that our grandchildren will be paying it off long after we are dead

Answer 7

It seems to me that they are mad at Bush because of the war in Iraq and WMD but

Answer 8

Most suffer from BDS (Bush Derrangement Syndrome). They are still ticked off that we impeached Clinton and want revenge. I think had Clinton not been impeached for purjury, Bush isn't even a factor.

Answer 9

No. I haven't liked any of the Presidents in my lifetime. (I'm 40)

It hasn't affected my life before and it doesn't affect it now.

Answer 10

Liberals are absolutely consumed by their hatred for Bush.

Answer 11

Clinton had the same effect on me I know exactly what you are talking about.
