Bush’s Mid-East policy, disguised as the “war on terror”, is an “all or nothing” wild bet. He bet blood, capital and reputations, wagering everyone’s safety, our younger generation’s blood and their children’s money. Bush played this high-stakes hand like an idiot - a monkey flipping coins would’ve got 50% correct! Bush‘s post-invasion decisions and policies are a disaster.

What is the most realistic achievable positive outcome of our IraqAttaq debacle? A world that doesn’t despise us would be a worthy goal. A real election of bush is a big “phooey” to the world. A Kerry election would challenge him, and his successors, to years of correction and repair. And paying for bush’s irresponsible financial wreckage. Bush is the worst president in US history.

If 1% of the world‘s Muslims feel we hate each other, that‘s 14 MILLION people. Bush’s solution : kill some of them. Bush is a walking talking Al-Queda recruitment tool. At Fallujah a small unknown group of Iraqis beat back our Marines. Sure, we could kill everybody with ease, but that will grow more hate. The rest of the world seems to notice “details,” details beyond bush’s comprehension. Bush doesn’t nuance. Details like Abu Ghraib Prison operations.

This should not come as a surprise, though.
I seem to remember people actually promoting
the war as a way to "draw Al Qaeda to us,"
thereby allowing us to "fight them on their
soil." The brilliant war planners in
Washington UNDERSTAND that this action is
swelling the ranks of the terrorists. Sadly,
this might actually be the plan! How often,
lately, have you heard this;
"Well, we can't just cut and run..."
Because the insurgents haven't left...
Because we haven't left.....
We've been drawn into the perpetual war paradigm!

Lonely and slightly confused Right Winger seeks intelligent but gentle Left Winger for meaningful discussion of today’s issues. Show me the error of my ways, PLEASE.

You lefties are right again!

We're getting our ass kicked in Iraq. Just today we killed 25 terrorists and they hurt none of our guys. Pretty tough fighters I must say...

They only are tough when they kill babies and sneak up on real soldiers. They can rape women but they wear masks and go into hiding knowing that someone will kick their ass...

Face it you liberals hate America. You should go fight with these stool samples against America. That will make you happy. You can see first hand how they treat women so fairly. They rape for a sport! Tough guys they are...

Typical lefties, just like kerry they kiss the behind of a Commie and hate America....

Yes, Americans are better. We rape for GOD AND COUNTRY.

The cowardly terrorists are killing babies
and women in the name of our president.
How dare anyone accuse US of taking joy in
the deaths of innocent people!
From day one, we have done nothing on the
left but try, desperately, to prevent the
perverse bloodshed taking place in Iraq!
And now, the very numbskulls who rushed in
there and got us stuck in this mess have
the nerve to accuse us of conspiring to
perpetuate this atrocity!?
It is the pro-war advocates who stubbornly
insist on a sentence of death for innocent
Iraqi civilians; as the secretary of defense
has said, "collateral damage" is an inevitable
cost of war!
And "collateral damage" occurs when cowardly
terrorists kill babies and women and then
hide from their ass kickings.
And all of this, of course, is occuring while
bin Laden takes refuge in any one of a number
of friendly muslim countries, all of which
are obvious treasure to the stated objective.
So, if the conservative agenda is seen through
to its' conclusion, there will be plenty more
death and destruction in the middle east
for you righties to blame on us peace loving
liberals. >

G W Bush just like Reagan was hated by the extreme left for doing what he believes in. The Great Communicator was viewed by the Europeans and the Democrat extremists as ready to start WW III and ignoring treaties. Same as GWB today. Only difference is that the mainstream Democrat Party is now the extremists. The party is way too far left.

GWB like Reagan will become one of America's greatest Presidents!!!

Of course we could always go back to the 20% interest rates and 11% unemployment of the Carter years. Not to mention how powerless we were and how depressed Americans were! Reagan made us feel great that we were Americans and could do whatever we attempted!

After the lies of the Clintons and failures of Carter we cannot afford to follow another Democrat...
