No he said hostile -- I know it is said hostage.
He has many mistakes like these....

I`m not saying that only the president is doing things wrong. Why do you think I added " the gouverment" as well. And he did say that thing: http://irregulartimes.com/index.php/archives/2007/06/28/bush-i-am-above-the-law-yet-again/

I like the type of government America has. Republic democratic. The majority rules. All citizens have a say. Not just what one person (a dictator or such) wants personally (usually power, not to help people of the country). I like the checks and balances of the three branches of government-judiciary, executive, and legislative (representatives and senators).
But if you mean our opinion on the current president... well, basically no one likes him. and i don't pay much attention to politics if it does not directly affect me. But I do not like war. And I do not like other countries viewing us as stupid and cruel. so No, i do not like that effect Bush has.

The United States government has turned into a quagmire of corruption, inefficiency, fraud and waste - all because it no longer answers to the people it is supposed to serve.
A monopolistic, stagnant, corrupt two-party political system maintains a stranglehold on power forcing even the most well-intentioned candidates to compromise their beliefs, principles and personal values. Bureaucracies have outgrown their usefulness, and an amoral, apathetic public has allowed such hedonistic activity to continue unabated and without protest. As with any cumbersome, slothful, arrogant, selfish Goliath, there will - sooner rather than later - come a David to overpower our great empire. Just as the great Greek and Roman civilizations collapsed under the weight of their own hubris, so shall America. Sooner than one thinks. -RKO- 11/26/07

From my British point of view, I do not understand why there's a man in the White House who speaks the language of Shakespeare, but who so destroyed it at the same time.
What the man says is often confusing and quite meaningless in the real world of today.
I'm not blaming the American people. After all, they were told that America was at war and therefore many Americans saw it as their duty to stay with the Commander in Chief.
Well. Geo.W.Bvsh will soon be of fond memory. Two strikes and you're out, etc.

And your point is? People who have to make speeches get nervous. When they do, they flub the lines. I am always very suspicious of a politician who never makes a mistake.
Bush is generally held out to be a moron. Perhaps he deserves that label for is inability to be articulate, but they don't let you graduate from Yale or fly jet aircraft if you are a dunce. No amount of money can change that.

"As well he said one time that he is above the law. - Bush."
And yet you seem to be missing that quote, eh? Probably because he never actually said it.
My opinion of the USA government is that Bush isn't the problem; the WHOLE system is the problem. There's too much money changing hands that defines USA policy rather than the will of the people.
Don't try pinning it all on one person when the whole thing is the problem.

I know very little about the USA government, but I'm told that just about anyone can become president. How true that seems to me here in the UK!!

My Opinion? Responsible.
Although I recognize our President does not use the Queens English well, I'm sure he said "Hostage", not "Hostile".
I concur with the rationale of the quotes (with the correction, of course)

It's not a perfect system, but it is the best government developed so far. Some times our government works well, sometimes not so well.

Bush is a criminal, but he is supported by the immoral 32 percent of America. Until or unless that 32 percent suddenly gets religion or becomes patriotic, he will be the president for another year. Pointing out how corrupt and dishonest he and his party is serves no purpose. It is time to move on.

The election process. Give each candidate a set limit of money, give them 30 days, and then vote.
