May 26, 200620 yr I think Bush was probably not the right person to lead our country before or after 9/11. Before 9/11 because he was an inneffectual leader, and after because he was an opportunist.
May 26, 200620 yr Their all the same at the end of the day, however, bush is a terible lier, and he only does what he is told to do. If your going to blame someone, blame the people above him, those are the real people making the calls, bush is a front man, but he's one bad front man.
May 26, 200620 yr A simple title. What are your thoughts on this man? He wasn't ready for the job as president when he took office. Toss in the fact that he's had the roughest event in his presidency than anyone since whoever inherited vietnam (I think Johnson was the first to inherit it). He certainly seems dedicated, and not at close minded as most people think or most extreme right wingers want him to be. He values loyalty over truth and tries to appease the party faithful too much. What are your thoughts on his policies? That's a bit harder. Almost all of his policies have very good and very bad points. I'm a big fan of his stance to to simplify the tax code, but he made a mistake by not reinstating at least one of the upper 2 brackets. NCLB is a good idea, but is broken in that it punishes the schools that need it most. When he first proposed his energy policy it was excellent, but got destroyed by the Republicans in congress, and he allowed it. Semi-privatizing social security is an excellent idea, but the transition debt needs to be solved. Presciption drug benefits on medicare is a good idea, but the implementation is really messed up. Removing Saddam was a good thing, but the timing was bad, especially with the US holding a veto on any attempt to remove sanctions that prevented Saddam from reconstituting his weapons programs. His push for the anti-gay marraige amendment is dumb, but he's admitted that's just appeasing the party not his personal stance (he seems to favor civil unions with the exact same rights, one of those wackos who just opposes the use of the WORD marraige). I'd talk about PATRIOT act, but that's really not HIS thing, just something he supports. But it has done a lot to improve efficiency and co-operation between the agencies, it's just done some things to restrict civil rights as well. What are your thoughts on his administration? I really don't think his administration has been bad. Almost all of his problems stems from Iraq, an aggressive, unfocused Democrat Party (which has several times voted against something he wanted that has been part of their agenda in the past). There's also a rebellion in the Republican party that isn't helping, but that's a side effect from Iraq. If he hadn't invaded Iraq, I think his term would be remembered fondly. In sum, lets go. Take your side, make your point and lets have a little, fun debate here. It's usually only fun to make fun of Dubya
May 26, 200620 yr His approval ratings are bad like Harry Truman's were but he will go down in history as making the RIGHT decision in Iraq and on terrorism. Much like Reagan did when helping bring down the wall.....
May 26, 200620 yr Their all the same at the end of the day, however, bush is a terible lier, and he only does what he is told to do. If your going to blame someone, blame the people above him, those are the real people making the calls, bush is a front man, but he's one bad front man. :blink:
May 26, 200620 yr Their all the same at the end of the day, however, bush is a terible lier, and he only does what he is told to do. If your going to blame someone, blame the people above him, those are the real people making the calls, bush is a front man, but he's one bad front man. horseshit. bush is commander in chief, its on him to make the right decisions. We can argue till we are blue in the face over who really makes decisions for this country, but at the end of the day, the man ultimately responsible is one George W. Bush. So dont even try to spin that sh*t.
May 26, 200620 yr What are your thoughts on this man? I'll give him the credit of sometimes being well intentioned but we can never really be sure. The stuff that goes on in the administration that he has no fingers on or has no clue about tells me that his decentralized power structure will ultimately leave him looking weak and out of touch in the eyes of history. For this reason, it becomes hard to pin anything on him. He involved religion in his policies way too much and I think he did so not as solutions to problems or as moral issues but because he does not really see a wall between church and state. Ultimately, one has to question how a president with so much political capital and the same party in both houses of congress with solid majorities could have so many blunders and missteps. What are your thoughts on his policies? His stem cell research policy is just plain stupid and reflects the will of a minority of the country. The concentration of the power of the executive is a terrible thing and is only defended with broad generalizations that dont fit very well. His foreign policy if defined by Iraq is a failure because two of the three proposed reasons we had for going into Iraq have turned out to be myths. The third reason is only there for convenience. He does get credit for trying to create a roadmap in the Mid East and for Libya. However I believe the neocons will screw up Iran and ignore Korea too much. His tax policy is mostly beneficial to the wealthy while helping to create the enormous defecit. I have strong doubts about his intentions with social security and I think that is why it failed. He couldnt compromise or explain certain aspects because he didnt want to. I think his moral agenda was more than just pandering and will go alongside Reagan's AIDS reaction as pure idiocy. However I give him credit for not pushing it as hard as he could have suggesting he isnt like the wacko religious nuts. I also give him credit for compromising and being rational on the immigration issue. What are your thoughts on his administration? I think nearly anyone could have been as successful as he was after 9-11 as the nation just needed leadership and strong words. However, to his credit, he handled the invasion of Afghanistan and the initial anti-Muslim fervor relatively well. However, his handling of the Katrina disaster has exposed how the administration isnt as strong as people think they are. Iraq and Rumsfeld have to be enormous blunders too. Moreover, they seem to have as much interest in creating propaganda that something is working rather than actually having it work such as interfering in the obectivity of scientists and paying journalists. I think its amazing that the democrats can be blamed for his failures when they are the political minority.
May 26, 200620 yr What are your thoughts on this man? What are your thoughts on his policies? What are your thoughts on his administration? 1. Bush isn't exactly the brightest person to hold this office. A C student at Yale, where he was a legacy anyway, doesn't say too much. He also had a lot of problems with drugs and drinking before he became governor of Texas. His political experience was very limited prior to his election as president in 2000, and as far as I'm concerned, he's lucky that Gore conceded the election in 2000. One of my bigger problems with the man is his stubbornness. He refuses to admit mistakes, and would rather cover something up than admit it. He probably will exceed Nixon as the most secretive president in history. Only today did he admit somewhat that mistakes were made in Iraq. 2. His policies tend to favor the upper tax bracket and big business way too much. For awhile his policies favored the group credited with his election and re-election, the Evangelical Christians. Once he was re-elected, however, it seems that he has turned his back on Evangelicals to support legislation friendly to big-business. Oil companies have been enjoying record profits during his two terms in office, and gas prices have risen almost two dollars since he came into office. His environmental policies are the worst of any President in 100 years, by far. Going to war in Iraq was the biggest mistake by any President since we went into Vietnam in the late 1950's-early '60's. We have lost all world credibility, and it will be some time before the rest of the world will join us against a real threat to our country. The worst part about the war was the fact that most in the administration knew that the WMD evidence was bad, and they didn't care. Prior to this President Bush, America had no credibility problems worldwide, because we generally went to war only as a last resort (excluding Korea and Vietnam). No one ever asked us to invade Iraq (besides maybe that crook Ahmed Chalabi). The Department of Homeland Security was another huge blunder. DHS has failed to help get the various government agencies organized in times of crisis. Instead, creating it has just added another layer of federal bureaucracy to the already bloated federal budget. There is no reason for this organization to exist, it serves no good purpose. 3. I can guarantee that without Karl Rove at his side during the 2004 campaign, there would have been no way for Bush to win his re-election. Rove most certainly had some involvement in the Valerie Plame case, as evidenced by multiple testimonies before a Grand Jury. I feel bad for Colin Powell, because he was one of the few moderate voices during Bush's first term, and he had to go through hell in the run up to the Iraq war. Many blamed him directly when his presentation to the U.N. turned out to be made up of primarily bad intel. He was also the only man in the White House who did not want to go to war against Iraq, until the very end. This didn't make him very popular. Donald Rumsfeld, as far as I'm concerned, should be in prison. His insistence that the U.S. did not need a large force to go into Iraq has directly caused the deaths of nearly 3000 American soldiers, very few of which would have died if we had gone in with overwhelming force. He ignored claims from actual military experts leading up to the war that it was dangerous to go into Iraq with so few soldiers. He and the rest of the administration denied the realities on the ground for a long time, and still do to some extent today. According to Bob Woodward's book "Plan of Attack," the main reason that Dick Cheney was so often in an 'undisclosed location' was that he was absolutely paranoid that Al Qaeda would launch another attack to decapitate the U.S. government, and he did not want to be in Washington when that happened. He was hell-bent on going to war with Iraq, believing for no reason (beyond paranoia) that Al Qaeda and Saddam were allies. He refused to listen to actual intelligence showing that there were no true links between the dictator and the terrorist group. It's pretty likely that Cheney came up with the idea of getting back at former Ambassador Joe Wilson by outing his wife Valerie Plame as a CIA operative. His closest aide, Scooter Libby, was clearly involved in some way, and now the Vice President has been asked to testify before the Grand Jury investigating the case. I don't really have an opinion on Condi Rice, she hasn't done all that much in my view.
May 26, 200620 yr What are your thoughts on this man? He's hard to read. I think he means well a lot of the time, but he doesn't seem willing to admit fault for anything. What are your thoughts on his policies? He's doing the wrong things in the name of the War on Terrorism. What are your thoughts on his administration? I see no unity. Everyone seems like they feel like they should stand with him, but I just don't see any sincerity when his administration is regurgitating what Bush says.
May 26, 200620 yr What are your thoughts on this man? I think he is terrible at what he does unfortunatly he got himself into this mess and unfortunatly there is nothing that can be done, A lot of people are affected and no one seems to care but thats just a reflexion of his campain. there is no solidarity What are your thoughts on his policies? I dont know much about the "ins" about his policies and what he takes out here and takes out there or puts here and helps there but I see everything rising and no one really seems to care, again just a reflexion of his campain What are your thoughts on his administration? I dont like what he has done or what he is trying to do. it has done much more wrong than right and again thats just a reflexion of his campain
May 26, 200620 yr His approval ratings are bad like Harry Truman's were but he will go down in history as making the RIGHT decision in Iraq and on terrorism. Much like Reagan did when helping bring down the wall..... I will answer my thoughts on him later... But don't bring up Reagan ever in a convo like this. Especially when its an event that he had absolutely nothing to do with besides his gung ho stance on commies.
May 26, 200620 yr What are your thoughts on this man? What are your thoughts on his policies? What are your thoughts on his administration? 1. Bush isn't exactly the brightest person to hold this office. A C student at Yale, where he was a legacy anyway, doesn't say too much.

He probably will exceed Nixon as the most secretive president in history. Only today did he admit somewhat that mistakes were made in Iraq. YOU ARE WRONG MY FRIEND. HE'S LUCKY GORE CONCEEDED??? haha That stiff lost man. This is the truth with Gore...... According to The Washington Post, " Gore's grades were lower than any semester recorded on Bush's transcript from Yale [emphasis added]." Gore, later the author of the environmental call-to-arms book, "Earth in the Balance," received a D in a Harvard science course. The Post described Gore's sophomore year: "[That was] the year Gore's classmates remember him spending a notable amount of time in the Dunster House basement lounge shooting pool, watching television, eating hamburgers and occasionally smoking marijuana." On to graduate school. In 1971, Gore enrolled in Vanderbilt Divinity School. The Washington Times says, "It is said that Mr. Gore failed to hand in his book report on time. Thus, his incomplete grade turned into an F, one of five Fs Mr. Gore received at divinity school, which may well be a worldwide record." He later dropped out. Gore then enrolled in law school, but also failed to finish. The Boston Globe said, "Nor did Gore graduate from Vanderbilt Law School, where he enrolled for a brief time and received his fair share of Cs." Not only did Bush academically outperform the "intellectually superior" Gore, Bush scored a higher verbal SAT score than Rhodes scholar and former Democratic presidential candidate Bill Bradley, with Bush scoring 566 to Bradley's 485. True, Gore scored a higher verbal SAT at 625, but the "smart, engaged, and qualified" former vice president scored only 59 points higher than the allegedly intellectually deficient Bush. AGAIN LET ME TELL YOU PEOPLE....Bush has an Undergraduate and Master?s Degree from Yale, an Ivy League college. He is only the second President in the history of our country to have such a degree. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE IN BEING DUMB AND BEING A POOR PUBLIC SPEAKER. .............................................................................................................................................. Then according to the liberal Boston Globe- In 1999, The New Yorker published a transcript indicating that Bush had received a cumulative score of 77 for his first three years at Yale and a roughly similar average under a non-numerical rating system during his senior year. Kerry, who graduated two years before Bush, got a cumulative 76 for his four years, according to a transcript that Kerry sent to the Navy when he was applying for officer training school. He received four D's in his freshman year out of 10 courses, but improved his average in later years. Again, according to the Wash Post.... Before coming to Harvard, Gore graduated from St. Albans in Washington, D.C. ranked 25th in a class of 51. There, he had three straight years of C's in French, although he did receive four years of straight A's in art. SO IF BUSH Outpreformed Gore and Kerry in school then why all the liberal bashing on him being dim?
May 26, 200620 yr If Bush has done such a terrible job with the economy I definitely can't tell from looking around, because the economy is booming here in South Florida.

Nixon is by far the WORST President ever to hold office. Most people would agree.... Extreme leftists would think Bush is (mainly because they aren't in power).......me for one is happy that there hasn't been another terrorist attack in 5 years. Put Hillary in office and the world becomes a much scarier place.....please God let Guilani win! He is much worse then Nixon, Much worse. Nixon got the troops out of Vietnam last I checked. He was getting out of JFK's mistake of a war. That's about all Nixon did well though. Is war the only thing that concerns you? Is fishfan79 French? Let me ask him something......What would you do in Iraq? No one WANTS to be in Iraq anymore. But now we have made it our obligation to create a democracy there. We can't stop when it's 75% complete. We did the right thing in taking out Saddam and his regime and I will debate ANYONE on that subject. Now, we must make their government stable enough to govern themselves. I have 3 friends in Iraq right now and they say it is a MUCH safer place than it was. The media portrays it to be WW3 over there and thats not the case. The liberal media does NOT show the soldiers feeding Iraqi's and playing with the children. CHILDREN LOVE US THERE! With a little education for these kids.....this country's future will be bright. Instead of just flicking on NBC and watching the 10 killings a day....look at the big picture for once....... We took out a crazy dictator and we are turning a country completely around....whether you believe that was our responsibility or not- WE DID THE RIGHT THING. The world is a safer place and Iran is next if you ask me....
May 26, 200620 yr me for one is happy that there hasn't been another terrorist attack in 5 years. -Bear patrol created after one bear incident. Homer Well, there's not a bear in sight. The Bear Patrol is sure doing its job. Lisa That's specious reasoning, Dad. Homer Thank you, sweetie. Lisa Dad, what if I were to tell you that this rock keeps away tigers. Homer Uh-huh, and how does it work? Lisa It doesn't work. It's just a stupid rock. Homer I see. Lisa But you don't see any tigers around, do you? Homer Lisa, I'd like to buy your rock.

Why not just explain your stance instead of Simpson quotes? Let me ask you....are you happy we invaded Iraq? YES OR NO? Here are just a few crimes that Saddam committed (of course the ones that people know about)....I'm glad he's not in power anymore :thumbup 1-The killing of Sunni religious leaders such as Abdul Aziz Al Badri the Imam of Dragh district mosque in Baghdad in 1969, Al Shaikh Nadhum Al Asi from Ubaid tribe in Northern Iraq, Al Shiakh Al Shahrazori, Al Shaikh Umar Shaqlawa, Al Shiakh Rami Al Kirkukly, Al Shiakh Mohamad Shafeeq Al Badri, Abdul Ghani Shindala. 2-The arrest of hundreds of Iraqi Islamic activists and the execution of five religious leaders in 1974. 3-The arrest of thousand of religious people who rose up against the regime and the killing of hundreds of them in the popular uprising of 1977 in which Ayatollah Mohamad Baqir Al Hakim the leader of SCIRI was sentenced to life imprisonment. 4-The arrest, torture and executions of tens of religious scholars and Islamic activists in such as Qasim Shubbar, Qasim Al Mubarqaa in 1979. 5-The arrest, torture and execution of Ayatollah Mohamad baqir Al Sadr and his sistre Amina Al Sadr (Bint Al Huda) in 1980. 6-The war against Iran in 1980 in which hundreds of thousands of Iraqis were killed, and many doubles of that number were handicapped or missed. 7-The arrest of 90 members of Al Hakim family and the execution of 16 members of that family in 1983 to put pressure on Ayatollah Mohamad Baqir Al Hakim to stop his struggle against Saddam's regime. 8-Using chemical weapons in the North and the South the details of which are below. 9-The occupation of Kuwait which resulted in killed hundreds of thousands of Iraqis and injuring many doubles of that number in addition to the destruction of Iraq. 10-The assassination of many opposition figures outside Iraq such Haj Sahal Al Salman in UAE in 1981, Sami Mahdi and Ni'ma Mohamad in Pakistan in 1987, Sayed Mahdi Al Hakim in Sudan in 1988, and Shaikh Talib Al Suhail in Lebanon in 1994. 11-The execution of 21 Bath Party leaders in 1979 in Iraq , the assassination of Hardan Al Tikriti former defence Minister in Kuwait in 1973, and the former Prime- Minister Abdul Razzaq Al naef in London 1978. go here for pics of what Saddam did.... http://fdd.typepad.com/fdd/2006/01/alert_saddams_c.html (GRAPHIC MATERIAL) DO NOT GO IF YOU HAVE A WEAK STOMACH. Being the strongest country in the world....you don't put up with stuff like this....you get a crazy person like this out of power and you do not let him get NUCLEAR weapons (yes he DID not have them when we invaded but if you don't think this crazy man would have gotten them then I don't know if I can debate you any further).
May 26, 200620 yr Nobody here is going to tell you that Saddam Hussein is not an evil man. I think that America would have rather seen George W. Bush have an actual plan regarding this war, though.
May 26, 200620 yr Nobody here is going to tell you that Saddam Hussein is not an evil man. I think that America would have rather seen George W. Bush have an actual plan regarding this war, though. I agree....I think Bush is a good man. He worships God and has the right intentions. He is a smart man as well. I also believe he is a horrible public speaker and doesn't have the best plans (Iraq/Katrina). However, I just laugh at how bad the media is towards Bush because there is not a Dem in office. I was just asking the question.....did we do the right thing in invading Iraq...YES OR NO? I say yes. But you are right....there should have been a plan. Let me ask you another question....I do prefer diplomacy with Iran but if this crazy guy keeps acting like this and keeps developing weapons would you invade Iran?......YES OR NO? I would because someone has to stop them and we can't let Isreal go in because they will blow up the entire country and start WW3. USA would do it tactfully and just take out the regime and nuclear facilities.

The world is a safer place and Iran is next if you ask me.... If you can not have a rational conversation without insulting me by calling me french because my opinion is different then yours please dont respond to my posts. As for the rest of your post, do you need to quote the rhetoric that is just horribly unbalanced? For your information I am registered republican, sh$t I used to be engaged to a republican senator's grand-daughter. Yes we took apart a crazy dictator, which we put into office. No the world is not a safer place. No, we did not have the legal right to into there, we didnt have the moral right to go into there. Yes, we just ruined the good will and credibility in the world. We have screwed up Afghanistan hugely as well because we left there with our soliders. That country has been falling apart completely since we pulled out most of our troops. So much for a democracy there. Iraq has had thousands upon thousands of civilian deaths within this war. Most from our own actions, from bombing an other instances. You are talking ten to thirty times the numbers that were killed for us in the september 11th attacks and that is a very conservative number for the death tolls. I have 5 friends over there as well and they tell me all the time how terrible it is. I dont know what beach resort you are on but the people over there dont like us that much. They dont want us there and they didnt want us there in the first place. All we have done by going into Iraq is lose thousands of american lives. Lose tens of thousands of Iraq lives. Destabilize the region and our allies in the region like Turkey and Isreal further. The Media in this country is not left wing, it hasnt been left wing since Regan was in office. Please look whom owns the media. I may be a republican but I am realist as well. What is next, wish to call me a Communist because I disagree? My family has lost relatives going back into the war of 1812 for this country. I love my country very much, I have been to Europe and Asia as well. I am telling you now this war was a mistake. Iran was the country we should of went into, and we should of had a battle plan. We shouldnt of Blatantly lied to the american people, and the world at large. I am not even going to get into the domestic plan, or lack there of, for the Bush administration. I will not get into the failures in office for Fema, or within the situations of the past hurrianes. I wont get into the fact this is the largest government we have had for beaurocrats for the history of our country. The largest national debt and dependance upon foreign nations in our history. The largest number of economic scandals in the history of the country. I would of loved for a republican to get elected for office in the 2000 year, but the wrong one did. The one I wanted for office was named McCain. Nobody here is going to tell you that Saddam Hussein is not an evil man. I think that America would have rather seen George W. Bush have an actual plan regarding this war, though. I agree....I think Bush is a good man. He worships God and has the right intentions. He is a smart man as well.

I would because someone has to stop them and we can't let Isreal go in because they will blow up the entire country and start WW3. USA would do it tactfully and just take out the regime and nuclear facilities. I believe no we shouldnt of for Iraq. We should of went into Iran, but only after we fixed Afghanistan correctly so they would of been a Second Muslim Democracy in the middle east, turkey being the first. We then should of went into Iran to fix that situation there. They have been supplying there terrorists for years and there is a direct link there. The world knows it and we know it. Saddam had nothing to do with the attacks against us and we didnt have a legal basis for the assault upon Iraq. As for right now, no we cant afford economically or military wise another war into Iran. The country's money and market value cant afford it. It is the simple.
May 26, 200620 yr Clinton worshiped God too, just becuase you worship God does not not make you a good person.
