    Amen, brother....
    My only criticism of him is he devoted his second term to appeasing the left side of the aisle.

    LOL. That's a good one!

    Wait, you were serious? Oh, wow.

    You can all follow the Liberals tag lines and discredit what he's done, and blame everything on him.....they make great talking points.
    Name some things he's done wrong!
    If you mention WMD's, I'm gonna puke....your friend Obama said we should invade countries that commit genocide, so there's Bush's get out of jail free card for invading Iraq...not to mention the constant ignoring of 10 years of UN resolutions...
    What else?
    The economy? HA!!! Blame that on Democratically controlled congress who chose to ignore warning signs....
    What else? Immigration? The safety of your citizens? Your home price up still higher than it was in 2000, despite the "market correction"?
    C'mon, I think I hit all the Liberal talking points....what else is there? Oh wait, you've lost civil liberties....name one....oh, sorry you need to be screened before getting on a plane....if you say, "my cell phone is being tapped" I'm gonna puke again....if you're not involved in something shady, there's nothing to worry about...do you really think a Fed agent wants to eavesdrop on your conversations with you buddies about what you did last weekend....Please..
    So, I want to hear what you have!!!
    Remember, Bush's approval rating is STILL higher than Congress.

    you just said that bush gets out of jail free for invading iraq because of something a senator said. invading a country on the one hand, words on the other. people fighting and dying, people speaking and thinking. am i wrong? blame the media all you want for others' biases, it doesn't reduce yours. instead of accepting the fact that both parties cause problems, you are no better than you purport the media to be by simply slamming the democrats right back in response to some criticism.

    and you shouldn't threaten to puke so much, people who say stuff like that make me want to puke!

    "U.S. President George W. Bush is one of the most insightful, empathetic, compassionate and courageous individuals currently serving to protect against the threatened worldwide human condition."

    I agree our president deserves alot more respect then he gets from the public and media. I don't agree with some of his later year decisions in the office but I respect him as the president of this great nation.
  • Hello · 1 year ago
    OMG is this person nuts? I am so glad he is leaving office! I do not see any empathy pouring out of him at all. Hes a jerk just like his "No New Taxes" father they are both sucky presidents and they pick sucky vice president also, quayle and cheney

    Why do you say that? Because the media told you he was bad? As I said above, his approval rating is still better than congress.....And, as for VP picks....two words, Al Gore....
    I often ask liberals what's worse...to vote in a bafoon to be president? or to LOSE TWICE to that bufoon? Kind of like, who's more the fool...the fool or the fool who follows the fool.

    George Bush has been in office for over seven years. The first six, the economy was fine. Almost two years ago consumer confidence stood at a two-and-a-half-year high, regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon, the unemployment rate was 4.5%, the Dow Jones hit a record high, Americans were buying new cars, taking cruises, vacations overseas, living large.

    But Americans wanted 'Change' because the Democrats told them things weren't good, and that Bush was a moron. With the help of the leftist media, they pounded that into the American psyche. Keep making fun of Bush, tell Americans he's an idiot, tell Americans they deserve more, they deserve better, they deserve CHANGE.

    So, in 2006, they voted in a Democrat Congress and yes, we got 'Change'. Let's see now, where do I begin: In the past year consumer confidence has plummeted, gasoline is now $3-plus, unemployment is up 6.1% and climbing, Americans have seen their home equity drop by $12 trillion dollars and prices are still dropping, One percent of American homes are in foreclosure, $2.5 trillion dollars has evaporated from their stocks, bonds, and mutual funds investment portfolios.

    Yes, in 2006 America voted for 'Change', and we sure got it!

    Remember, the President has no control over any of these issues, only Congress. And what has Congress done in the last two years? Absolutely nothing. And now the Democrat candidate, B. Hussein, claims he is going to really give us 'Change' along with a Democrat Congress. Just how much more 'Change' do you think we can stand?

    F.B.O.

  • RedMenace · 1 year ago
    You don't understand because you have not a thought in

    your head. That's why you support B. Hussein.

    Red,

    I'm really sorry your father never thought you were good enough, but that's no excuse to bully and be mean to people.

    Now go play nice.

    Hello??? It means *Bleep* Barack Obama*.
