Why do you hate Bush and love Moore?
438387
I hate Bush because he is a liar and gets people killed.\n\nI love Moore because he educates people and believes we, as a country, can do better.

Because liberals know that it ISN'T easy to find Osama.  Nor do they want him found, because they share so many of his views.  Not only that, but according to liberals, 9/11 was President Bush's fault, not Osama's.  They never have a bad word to say about Osama.  Both liberals and Osama hate America and doubly hate President Bush.  Osama's continued freedom, combined with his thumbing his nose at the President, delights liberals.  If Osama wrote a book and announced that he was making an appearance at Barnes & Noble for a signing session, liberals would be lined up for miles to meet him. Remember: the liberal's fundamental desire is never to solve a problem, but rather to create a costly government program to institutionalize and perpetuate the problem.

How much I hate the president of the united states

I like President Bush and I think he is doing the best job possible during a period in history that is very difficult and dangerous. I think he will go down in history as one of the better presidents-- not necessarily well liked, but better. There's nothing that says he has to be liked, but he should do the best job that he can, and I think he is doing that.\n\nAs to why people dislike President Bush and slam him so, I think there are several reasons. One is the movie put out by the hatemonger Michael Moore. The man is so filled with bitterness, it is evident that he wants to blame somebody for what hapened, but he seems to be afraid of agreeing with the rest of the world that the perpetrators are the ones who have boasted that they did it.\n\nWhat is even more frightening is that he has convinced others to hate blindly-- all the while pretending that he is fair and unbiased-- so the people he has led into hatred also think they are being fair and unbiased!\n\nThe media have played their part. Good news does not sell newspapers, as an old saying goes, and this is also true of tv news. By selectively choosing polls and slanting questions, it is possible to make the popularity numbers imply almost anything. Once more, let us remember that this is not a popularity contest, but a serious job.\n\nI cringe when I hear people say, "If I was President I'd do this and I'd do that" when it is clear from what they say that they haven't any idea of what the President's powers and responsibilities are.\n\nI have already given several Answers on the topic of the war in Iraq and related subjects; for those who are interested in hearing what I have to say instead of blindly disagreeing with me, I welcome all to check them out instead of repeating myself here.\n\nI will limit my comments to two things. Saddam Hussein did have unconventinal weapons of mass effect; one of the most dangerous was counterfeiting of American currency on the grand scale, which was weakening the American economy. He was trying to do to us what we did to the Soviet Union with our 'Star Wars' spending years ago: cause incredible inflation and eventually bring down the national political system. It was a deliberate attack.\n\nSecondly, Saddam Hussein claimed and boasted of being involved with nuclear research, much as Iran is doing at this very instant. He wanted the entire world to believe that he had or was on the verge of getting nuclear technology. If at any point he wished to reassure the nations of the world, all he had to do was to allow the UN weapons inspections teams into Iraq and let them do their work. He refused. He wanted to control the rest of the world by means of fear.\n\nTo draw an analogy, when a man threatens a cop with a gun, the cop does not have to determine whether it is a real gun or a water pistol. That man is simply bought and paid for; his death is on his own head. If he did not want to take the risk of being shot, he should not have threatened the cop and has no right to complain.\n\nSaddam is an enormously swollen version of a schoolyard bully. He wanted to intimidate the rest of the world into giving in to him, or leaving him alone until he could become even more powerful. \n\nWell, he succeeded in intimidating the rest of the world. But we had a responsibility to see to it that he didn't retain that power, in addition to the ability to attack us economically. He has nobody but himself to blame for prompting us to attack him and remove him from his power base.\n\nIf anything, we should have taken Saddam down back at the time of the first Gulf War. President Bush is, unfortunately, reaping the consequences of the USA being a nation that acts with restraint and adheres to the doctrine of minimum use of force. That is not HIS fault.

You sound like a sentimental Democrat.\n\nI'm sorry, you'll never figure out anything while you're in that mood.  Specifically, the whole line of reasoning that politicians make decisions based on who they like and who they hate is ragingly improbable.  The human mind is "locked" and doesn't love or hate anyone when it is in the middle of putting on an act.  The Greeks had this right, their word for "actor" was "hypocrite."\n\nThe strings that pay for Bush tug on him and urge him to prattle about open immigration and "guest workers."  So he does.\n\n"W" doesn't love or hate the Mexicans.  He looks upon fellow Americans as cannon fodder.  He loves PRESTIGE, the God his mother taught him to worship.  He thinks prestige as a puppet is better than being a commoner.  He'd rather destroy the country than abandon this precious notion of his.\n\nAs for whether Bush is mentally ill, I'm not a psychiatrist.  I'm just a retired bookkeeper.  But let me say I have very deep suspicions about his mental stability.  And since we are borrowing $2 billion a day from overseas, I know that he can't f*cking count or do arithmetic such as single entry bookkeeping.

About your last paragraph: 1) Many Americans do hate Bush; he's a mass-murdering, torturing, lying, thief who stole our country and is doing his best to run it into the ground; he is the ultimate anti-American as he hates everything that America stands for (thinks he should have absolute rule, thinks everyone who disagrees with him is a terrorist who must be stopped -- for just two examples). He has no human decency whatsoever.\n\n2) People have the right to their opinions (contrary to what Bush believes). Thus, people in other countries are perfectly within their rights to despise Bush, as he is a horrible person who thinks he has the right to bully and rule the world for the profit of his personal friends. He is not only completely ignorant, arrogant, stupid, and incompetent, he is hopelessly corrupt, brutal, greedy, and inhumane, utterly lacking compassion.\n\nWhat hardly anyone seems to understand is that he was not ever elected president by the voters of America (lost the popular vote in 2000 and was president only because Democrats in Florida were prevented from voting; won in 2004 through the votes by machines that were programmed to elect him).\n\nYou can't blame people for exercising their right to despise the despicable. All decent humans who use their brains at all can't help hating him and wondering at the people who tolerate his rule.\n\nThey hate and fear him for the inhuman monstrosity and genuine threat that he is.\n\nTHEY should back off?

Well, if you are a Bush fan, you owe a lot to them. For myself, I hate hate groups.

Please, read the questions that have already been answered first, instead of asking the same thing over and over.\nI will copy-paste my response to a similar question some days ago...\n\n"I hate Bush because:\n\n1 - He got elected despite having around 500,000 votes less than Gore, what makes him illegitimate and undemocratic.\n2 - He lied to the international community when he said that Iraq had WMDs, invading said country under false pretenses and without the support of the UN, or most of the international community, acting like the president of a rogue state, and doing so to be able to expand his lobbysts' (Halliburton, Lockheed-Martin, oil multinationals, etc.) economic interests in said country.\n3 - His economic policy of tax cuts is creating a situation of permament boom in the US economy, what in consequence makes the US deficit to grow larger everyday, causing the Dollar to devaluate and increasing US economic dependency with China. This situation will eventually cause the US economy to crash, when the Chinese can't finance the ever-growing US deficit anymore by buying dollars and the american economy enters in a bust cycle, thanks to skyrocketing unemployment and a low savings rate.\n4 - I don't live in the US, but as far as I know, he's also destroying the American school system, cutting taxes mostly for the rich, and allowing all US companies to close their factories and outsource all their labour production to sweatshops in Asia, effectively causing a rise in unemployment and a slow de-industrialization of the US mainland.\n5 - He has continued the American hypocritical policy on the Middle East by supporting dictatorial governments in Uzbekistan, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UAE and many others, just because these governments bow to western bussiness interests.\n6 - All oil wells in Iraq are operational, yet many large Iraqui cities remain without drinking water.\n7 - He initiated, under largely exaggerated or distorted pretenses (like portraying Al-Qaeda as a unified terrorist organization, which is a lie, since Al-Qaeda is just a political front that sponsors many small terrorist cells independent from each other), the so-called "War on Terror", which has served as an excuse for both western government to restrict civil rights (the patriot act, domesting evesdropping, shoot-to-kill policies in the UK), and for the Chinese government to crack down on Ughiur resistance. (Ughiur people are from East Turkestan, a country China invaded and brutally anexed in the 1950's, and whose people are now being persecuted under the false label of 'terrorists').\n8 - His policies in Iraq, the Middle East and elsewhere have actually helped to increase terrorism, not to reduce it.\n9 - His agressive foreign policy has propped rogue states like North Korea or Iran to adquire nuclear weapons, as a buffer from possible US agression against them.\n10 - For the fact that he is an alcoholic, a murderer, and a dumb person that has only risen to such high position thanks to his money, contacts, family and background.\n11 - Because, for all the reasons stated above, he has shown to be a puppet of US bussiness interests and large corporations.  "\n\nI hope those are enough reasons.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nALSO: To the user who posted above me, who claims that \n"Bush and Blair want to destroy the 'bad guys' before they have a chance to do anything",\nI ask you...Why does the Bush administration support the dictatorships in Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, then?\nAren't those 'bad guys' too? Or do you seriously believe that there are "good dictatorships" and "bad dictatorships"?\n\nIf Saddam was always evil, then why did the US supported him during the 1980's? Why did the US consider itself an ally of Saddam Hussein when he was gassing the Kurds in the 1980's?\nWhy did the US position change, coincidentally after Hussein decided to national

You must be a liberal idot, and a Bush hater, sorry for your brain disorder.

It's a fashion statement, friend, and fear of rejection. I you don't hate Bush, you don't belong to the modern, trendy, peppy, MTV culture.\n\nPeople tend to erect false fronts to hide what they are.

I know!  I've noticed that too.  Most of the people I know HATE Bush, his ratings are low, and the Congress that supports him had a recent 16% approval rating.  I even know some moderate Republicans that voted Democrat this year.\n\nYet people still say that "liberals are idiots" and "Bush is great."  Don't they realize that most of America and practically ALL of the world disagree with them?  Yet they still act all high and mighty.\n\nQuite a god complex they have, isn't it?\n\nBUSH SUCKS!!

Im a leftist and I don't hate Bush.  I disagree and dislike him but hate is a strong word.\n\nGoing into the war isn't necessarily the war crime.  War crimes can be mutliple things.  Look up all the laws of what constitutes a war crime, or search: GEORGE BUSH'S WAR CRIMES to get a list.  The site will be biased but that's where the people are coming from.

i agree completely. I HATE CLINTON. he is the meanest man alive. i will never forget when he drove by my school [a military-base school overseas] and he was supposed to get out and meet some people from my school. but instead, he just whipped by us, not even bothering to open his window. and i think bush is amazing. he's doing the best he can in this situation and he's handling it very well. =]

I absolutely hate him! The only reason why he is president is because the office was handed to him on a silver platter by the Supreme Court in 2000, and not only that, but there is evidence that there was possible election fraud in 2004. He has started a war that was based on a lie and he has failed to capture Osama bin Laden, the real culprit behind the September 11 attacks. People who hate him are often accused of being un-American, but in reality, Bush and his cohorts are the ones who are un-American, because thanks to them, we now have domestic spying! They have no respect for the Constitution, because they are doing everything possible to break down the separation of church and state, which is clearly established in the Constitution. And not only that, but people's First Amendment rights have been infringed upon. An example of this is the fact that whenever Bush visits a major U.S. city, protesters aren't allowed to demonstrate anywhere within his range of vision.\nSandra Day O'Connor has actually said that we are slowly moving towards a dictatorship, and you know that whenever a Republican-appointed former Supreme Court justice says something like that, we have reason to worry!

I used to hate the man.  And now that everyone hates him--now I'm starting to respect some of his positions: in particular, I like his stance on immigration, and I prefer his--and Condoleeza's--diplomatic efforts during this, his second administration.  My sense is that Mr. Bush is orders of magnitude better than the average Republican, even if McCain, Giuliani, Bloomberg, and Specter are significantly better than him.

I don't HATE either one... but I LIKE BUSH.
