I wonder if anyone is strong enough to lead this nation as Bush has .
He supports our troops and has done everything possible including spending over a billion dollars to attract new recruits .
Ad campaigns have had little effect at getting the youth of America to volunteer for military service .
Bush should remind them that during Vietnam he served with honor and dignity and was willing to lay his life down to defend America .
Who could possibly replace such a great leader .

You are kidding right?
1) Bush supports the troops by leading them into a war of choice. He doesn't make sure that they have the equipment they need, and he is against helping combat vets with mental health problems.
2) Bush is done after this term. The US doesn't have kings. Sorry.
3) Why would our youth want to fight in a war that doesn't make us safer? Our youth is smarter than you are, obviously.
4) Bush served with dishonor in the National Guard and never went to Vietnam. He could have gone, but he found a loophole to stay out of the war. And, there is some issue with the fact that he walked away to play politics during his service time. Bush is the last person who should have been given control of the military.

Any fool can do what George Bush has done:
Drive the country into 2 recessions
Invade a country on faulty information
Over extend the military on a war that never should have been waged.
Divide the Country
Hire incompetent advisers
Pardon someone who revealed the name of a CIA Under Cover Agent.
Waste nearly a trillion dollars on a war that should not have been waged.
Wipe out our surplus and return us to the status of a debtor nation.

You almost made me laugh with your saying that Bush would have given his life. Oh please. The republican candidates with the exception of John McCain are worthless mouthpieces. Bush has been not only a terrible President but a dangerous one. We are less safe. The only thing that has changed is that we are aware of how unsafe we are. We are paying more attention because of course it takes a tragedy to get people to wake up and pay attention to their surroundings. I would lay down my life for this country because it means something to me but never for a rich Republican who only cares about themselves such as Bush. I don't believe for one iota that he has an inkling of what life is like for the average American. I doubt you have a clue either. have the utmost respect for our service men and women. I don't want to see them fighting this war because I believe it is not one we should be in. I feel for the Iraqis but their government needs to be in charge. It was completely irresponsible of them to go on vacation. Just because Bush can talk tough doesn't mean he is. He screwed up Austria and Australia. That is ridiculous. He is incompetent. That's insulting and it makes us look stupid. He has had more vacation days. He could do a bit of preparation before a speech to make sure he has it right. Practice. Practice. It's not too much to ask. We all make mistakes but that one just kills me.

I think you're a troll. No one could possibly believe anything you've said here. Our deficit is sickening. You contradict yourself - he's spent so much to attract new recruits, but your next statement admits that money was wasted. If that's even an accurate figure. Bush didn't serve in Vietnam, his daddy kept him here.
Above all else, what you're talking about -Bush serving a third term - is highly unconstitutional. You want America do become a dictatorship?
Stop posting blatantly stupid sh*t just to get more answers.

Bush is not strong--he hasn't the guts to admit he's wrong. That's cowardice, not strength.
OUr troops aare in Iraq because of Bush's lies.
They are being forced to serve tour after tour--to a degree unequalled even in WW2.
They aren't getting decent medical care--e.g. Walter Reed
The laws protecting the jobs of members of the National Guard are not being enforced.
They were sent over with obsolete armored vehicles and body armor
With "support" like Bush's, who need's al-Qaida?
Support our troops--BRING THEM HOME

I wonder if anyone is smart enough to repair Bush's idiocy.
He does not support the troops,He's tried to cut VA funding by as much as 50% the last two years,and this while we ARE AT WAR.He also oppose restoring full education funding for vets.Bush only cares about the troop insofar as they advance his doctrine of stupidity.
And served with honor and dignity in the bars and whorehouses of Alabama?
Hahaha.

I hate Bush! He has lied and tricked us, doing whatever he wants without any legal authority to do so. I won't bother to repeat the insults about him that are ever popular. You have heard them all and agree or don't.
I will say I would rather see the little *astard stay in office though than see Hillbilly Clinton is office. Bush is indeed replaceable and Clinton would be an even bigger liar and liability to our country and freedom than Bush ever hoped to be.
Good question! Thanks for bringing it up!

Ad campaigns do have an effect, and it is interesting that you deny this.
Libs put in for huge dollars for ad campaigns in support of condoms, and petition for reduction of right-wing talk radio, because sometimes the ads there are effective.
Campaign finance reform is all about ads...and Libs loved it.

First off, I'd like to say to kika_trev, whoa! You need to do some research before saying anything. MILLIONS of troops are dying? I didnt even know there were that many there, in fact, Im sure there is not. And Bush KNEW what was going to happen?! You must be very young and naive.
Secondly, I d like to add that I absolutly agree with you about Bush being irreplaceable. He has been a heroic leader, and I am damn proud to be an American with him as my leader. Cant wait to see how many thumbs down I get. lol

Your sarcasm aside... you are actually correct. Bush is not a "by the polls" leader. If you want someone who "sounds" good and who will "entertain" you and will govern by the polls and not by the hard facts and intelligence we and others gather...then look to Hollywood and more Clinton type candidates.
Yes, it is harder to recruit the youth of today. They know nothing of service and are being raised to be selfish. They have no clue what this country actually offers them and what it takes to keep it that way. They are only being taught that they are "entitled" to everything and they need not take responsibility for anything. Look at the programs on MTV and other stations like that. It's nothing more than irresponsible kids drinking, trying to get lucky and being selfish. This is what the libs want to portray and advocate.
Finally... the Coast Gaurd isn't good enough service for you. You want to spit on them as well?
