Bush has not surrounded himself with wise counsel. He has a ton of "Yes" people around him, and that is the sure sign of a fool. War takes up all the budget, and that leaves very little for domestic issues. Another sure sign of a fool.

Why is this action that is happening against terrorist's and terrorist activities always being attached to Bush as if he was doing this alone and not in the name of our country.  We may have gone into Iraq for the wrong reasons, but we are there and to leave now would be more of a disaster than us being there so far.  On September 11, 2001 the terrorist's made an attack that finally got our attention.  That is what Osama bin Laden did was get our attention.  Last week people were rioting over the "Danish Cartoon Scandal" and chanting bin Laden attack them again.  What are we supposed to think?  Muslim's call for death to all infidels, which is most of the American Population and then I am told by someone here on this Forum that I misunderstand it is the Jews that want to kill everyone but them off.  Come on now which is it you want us attacked again, but we are supposed to believe that it is being done by Jews?  Are you doing the Jews work for them or do I just misunderstand what I am seeing everyday?  After Bush you will have another American president to hate along with all of us that are left to support them.  Bush is not King, Bush is not dictator, he is just an elected president of the greatest country on earth and you do not understand freedom and so you fear us.

Even though I do not agree with all of his decisions, I COMPLETELY respect him and cannot stomach the bashing that goes on.  This country is full of hollywood worshiping idiots that cannot think for themselves.  They think it is just COOL to hate Bush.... so pathetic.

It seems that those on Bush's side are retarded. They wallow in ignorance and refuse to acknowledge the destructiveness of their beliefs that are responsible for the evental collapse of this country. Sooner or later, they'll either wake up and realize that they are responsible for much of this country's problems or die out from killing each other.

I spend as much time in the US as I do abroad. In Europe, Asia and Arabia. The disprespect that is now heaped upon anything American is just unbelievable. In these forums I read notes from people who have never left their environs, harping on and trying to justify the unjustifiable. It leaves me very sad, because natural friends of America are now openly disrespecting a once great Nation. Why? Because of the Fundamentalist we have in the White House. In Britain, the politicians and populous have acted and asked Blair to go, because he has brought shame to the country in his support for Bush. It is unbelieveable how much he is now ignored by his own European partners who once glorified him.

I take it by reading the other post that repuglicans don't like it. It is just such a shame that they can't answer an honest question with an honest answer. Oh well what can you expect from Bush supporters, all 29 of them that are left.\n\nisn't bree123 special, Ann Coulter is real. LOL

It will take many, many years.  We have lost the respect of the world and our word means nothing.  When Bush told all of his lies to get us into this war for profit, he spoke on behalf of the American people.  When he was allowed to steal a second term in office, it appears that we accept this man and therefore are okay with the way he does business.  The only thing that could be worse is to sit idly by and accept another rethuglican to finish the job that the current thug started.  PLEASE VOTE A STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC TICKET and take at least 5 unregistered voters to get registered and drive them to the polls!!! America cannot afford another 8 years with that party in control and frankly unless you are wealthy or absolutely insane, how could any moral person go along with this current president, his administration and the party that supports his thuggery.  Sorry for the rant.....  Peace

Can some people be so blind to the flaws of this country. How can you believe we are so innocent. It's almost despicable to see the ignorance spewing out of some of these peoples mouths, how can they call themselves Americans when they just blindly support whatever leadership is thrown their way and every decision without any question. It almost makes me sick.

The news media wields far less power than they (or we) think. They thought if they told us we hate Bush enough, we might start to believe it. They had Bush trounced in the last election.\nIt turns out their version of the truth is far from it. I think you'll find Bush has a lot more support today than the media would like you to believe.

It's inconceivable how they get it wrong so often. It's just as inconceivable how people still support him.\n\nLet's see we have the highest deficit and the highest foreign debt (borrowed from other countries) than ever. Do people know that Bush borrowed more money from other countries than all the previous presidents combined? And what have we to show for the nearly $400 Billion for the war in Iraq and thousands of Americans and Iraqi deaths there: A country on the verge of civil war. And the worst part is that this administration was warned about the problems of insurgency and the possibility of civil war and they went to war anyway. Saddam was no threat to our country. \n\nNow this administration wants to sell the operation of our ports to a country that worked with Al Qaeda, that was one of only three countries to acknowledge the Taliban government in Afghanistan and does not recognize Israel. Go figure we won't recognize the democratically elected Hamas in Palestine because they won't recognize Israel but we will let another that does not recognize Israel run our ports.

Bush's own supporters on here have many times insulted America... \n\nThey constantly call the poor "lazy," even though what most of them consider poor makes up more than 50 percent of the population. They say they don't want to work, even though many poor have more than one job just to make it...\n\nThey call those that go to public schools stupid and say the public education system needs to be done away with and privatized...  they also want to take more money away for private school vouchers, which would only take money away from an already underfunded system...\n\nThey even don't seem to value our lives and send us to Iraq, the poor clearly make up the majority of the Army and Marines... and they don't even have a good reason... WMDs that aren't there?... Are our soldiers not worth knowing these kind of things for sure?... We haven't caught bin Laden yet, we focus on a nation that has nothing to do with terror?\n\nI'm getting really sick of them insulting the majority of America... which includes me...

Sorry I dont support Bush one bit, I dont think he has done anything for this country but put us deeper and deeper in debt, Spied on american citezens, completely screwed with medicare, and went to war in the wrong country becuase he didnt want to hurt his family friends, \nI can not support a president who HAS NEVER FAUGHT IN A WAR, BUT CAN RAGE ONE... how could he do that? \nHe ran with his tail between his legs and hid, while a REAL AMERICAN WILLING TO FIGHT FOR US, went to war and got put down for what he did, All he did was fallow the orders he was given. like any soldier. \nThe medicare thing saddens me to when old people have to depend on samples to make it by Because they cannot afford thier scripts, becuase medicare covers jack, (even the new plans arent fesiable for people with low incomes, or fixed incomes who can't afford to get it are now stuck paying full price yet.) \nas for our unemployment rate, going up... where can i ask has that happend, surely not where i live, \nAnd i agree with its nice to have friends in the white house, becuase good ole bush has friends who count ballots to... doesnt that make you wonder...\nI dont feel america is safer either, not with bush in office atleast

It is possible to support the "President" and Not support bush the man.\nIn a way we all support the President of the United States\n(except those extreme left wing nut jobs who even Liberals like myself hate)\nIts g. bush the man who needs to be called to task. bush failed his country and as good Americans it is our duty to point this out.

oh i agree with you there! i think he is doing the best he can being one man and having so much on his plate. the United states is having major issues especially with terrorists and wether bush was president or not, they still would have attacked us they were planning it for years and years and they hate us. i bet if a different president were in office everyone would hate him too because people love to blame someone when things go wrong but the bottom line is he is our president, the one who is fighting for us, maybe we should blame .. hmm i dont know .. the terrorists who flew planes into our buildings and killed thousands of innocent people on an ordinary tuesday morning!\noh and kia u are worried about terrorism cuz he is in office.. that is because they attacked while he was in office not because of him! the point of him not giving up the war is to keep terrorists from gaining strength again!

I feel very angry about what Bush has done to our reputation around the world.  It is something that really concerns me.  But, and this is a big but, I believe you are wrong about the American people and our government.  The American people ARE the government, in a very real sense.  We elect and we reject.  We are free to speak out and criticize our government and our President if we feel they are screwing up, and thankfully can effect change fairly easily compared to most governments.  You can see from our polls (yes, polls are notorious but when they all agree it's good to pay attention to them) that the majority of the American people do not approve of the job that Bush is doing.  We can support our troops and still be unhappy about the reasons they are there.  \n\nWe will change the tide by voting, it is our most precious freedom, IMO.  Apathy keeps many Americans at home during the mid-term elections, but I feel this time around we will see a big surge at the polls in the Democratic favor.  I have to say, as unhappy as I am with the Bush Administration, I bristled when I read your opening statement.  It just isn't true, we are the sum of all of our parts in this democratic republic.  We will continue to respond harshly to terrorists and their threats, whether our government is headed by a Republican or a Democrat.  Guantanomo Bay?  It's unfortunate and there's house cleaning to be done, but we have a right to detain those who are a threat to our national security.  We learned on 9/11 what it means to remain complacent and have a false sense of security.  We won't make that mistake again.
