Bush is doing a good job. Hes doin what hes gotta do. I dont understand y everyone has to criticize a pres no matter what he did....if bush never chose to occupy them the same people would be criticizing him for occupying, and now that he decided to the same people are criticizing again. Its rediculous, but thats how people are

its true that if we wouldnt have went to war with iraq people would have been saying he should have went to war, but i dont beleive we should be there that long, and theres not much accomplished......

i beleive he needs to focus on our economy,

haha... no.

Some war mongering ulta conservatives might have, but the nation has now seen the truth behind the lies we were told and even without going into iraq, time would have shown that nation to not be a threat to us, only in the interests of personal shit bush likes to use in his policies.. SHould we leave now? hel no, we couldnt. This is one of the worst situations america has ever been put in, history books will show this regime to be the worst in our 200+ year history.

I think less people would have been pissed off if he didn't go to war rather than rushing into it.

He went to war on the basis that Saddam was a threat to us since he supposedly had weapons. He was so sure that he had weapons. But apparently after thousands of innocent people have died, we found out that he didn't have any weapons that posed a threat to us.

Now if we didn't go to war and we were attacked by Saddam, but we probably wouldn't have been then of course many people would be bashing Bush. But once again that attack would have never happend since he never had any weapons.

If Bush had a little more patience and did more to guarantee that he had weapons of mass destruction, then we wouldn't be talking about this right now.

But that wasnt the issue to Bush. The administration knew very well iraq wasnt a threat. This is why they had to do plenty of clever lying and make up evidence to convince enough of his minions to back him into finishing what daddy started and securing influence in an oil rich region.

what good does talking bad about him do? Regardless of what you might think about him, he is your president and what he does is going to affect you...instead of finding ways to criticise him, maybe you should find a way to support him, thats whats wrong with this country as it is, its way too divided to accomplish anything...

No, as a citizen of this country, it is not only my RIGHT, but my DUTY as an American to speak out against an oppressive regime. Our nation was built on the idea that an unresponsive, poorly representing government should be OVERTHROWN. To shut my mouth and just go along with bush because hes "my president" is exactly opposite of what being an American is. Whats wrong with this country is that people like you dont get involved and we end up with this iraq debacle.

im not involved? i may not agree with everything he does, but at no time will you ever hear me talking bad about the man....he wouldnt have made these decisions if he didint think it was going to help, so maybe you should appreciate what he is trying to do, even if you dont agree wth it...

 

[jujumantb 10+ year member]

I would never appreciate something I dont agree with. Especially when it comes down to bush making decisions that dont help the country, but instead set us backward. He has a 30-some approval rating for a reason. Americans are finally finding some sense.
