This country needs his steady hand and level head during these trying times. His strong leadership is just what we need in the scary world we live in. Ronald Reagan illustrated that we will achieve peace through strength and we need to remember that in these days.

Thank you President Bush for your courageous leadership. Your country owes you a great debt of gratitude.

The Chimp has to make a lot more public appearances and have a lot more press conferences if he hopes to achieve a higher approval rating. And he has to make fire some people. But then again, Truman had a lower approval rating at one time apparently.

Greatest and Bush shouldn't ever be used in the same sentence. Worst ever is far more appropriate. No other president has done more damage to this nation in so short a time. In my book damaging the country isn't considered a "great" thing, not even good.

And why do you wnt to "bomb the **** out of Mecca"? That certainly doesn't sound very Christian to me? Would Jesus firebomb inocent men, women, and children? In fact, that sounds like something Osama Bin Laden would say. Are we becoming the monsters we are fighting?

Yes. You are correct.
Bush has increased social spending at a rate that exceeds the past 5 Presidents going back to Lyndon Johnson.

What I find ironic is how the left complains about the deficit, yet they still complain that he isn't spending enough. Then when the responsible people in congress actually propose some spending reductions they cry foul and make wild statements like Republicans want to screw the poor.
(What responsibility do the poor have in all this anyways? Do we need to just keep supporting them without question?)

Then they claim they can manage it better yet they cannot propose any specific alternatives.

Good points. Also, all of the screaming about the so called "record" deficit is misleading as well. It's about 2.3% of GDP currently, which is relatively insignificant.

In the wake of a natural catastrophe. I would hesitate to credit this to anyone, least of all the U.S.
Iraq has had elections and a new constitution.
In a war which nearly 70% of the U.S. no longer supports, has yet to produce weapons of mass destruction, has claimed the lives of over 2,000 members of the armed forces, to say nothing of the injured list, is costing the U.S. roughly $1 billion per day, and has no guarantees of ever ending.
Afghanistan is progressing rapidly towards a liberal-style of government.
And still has not produced Osama bin Laden.
There have been no terror attacks on America, or its interests since 9/11.
I could debate semantics with you depending on what you consider an attack on America, but it'd be a fruitless clashing of ideologies. I would like to point out, however, that it appears that what the U.S. has done is redirect the terrorist focal points to other nations. Makes you wonder just how much information the Department of Fatherl--er, Homeland Security is sharing with other nations.

Better ? In what way ? More expensive for poorer quality results ? That's not my idea of 'better'.

Black ownership of homes is way up.


Racially Divisive. What about other ethnic groups ? White Home Ownership ? Hispanic Home Ownership ? Asian Home Ownership ? You aren't one of those pro-black racists, are you ?

The gap between white test scores and black test scores are narrowing.


Is this because blacks are scoring better ? or because whites are scoring lower ? Or because the tests and the material being tested are both being 'dumbed down' ?

Poorer quality results from the education system.

Immmediately following 9/11 the Bush Administration heartily engaged the Pakistanis, who up to that point were personas non grata because of Musharaf. The Bush Admin engaged the Indians too and started playing them like they had been playing the west.

Had Pakistan and India gone to war yet again the left would have blamed Bush for it, so it is equally acceptable for me, a partisan, to give him credit.


Bush has pressured Egypt and Saudi Arabia to make their processes more poitically open. Read Natan Sharansky's book.

After Syrians killed the former PM of Lebanon the chiraqi and Bush pressured Syria and both finally started demanding that the UN Resolutions be implemented.

The recent Patriot Acts he has enacted have brought forth some interesting reactions. I am reffering to F.I.S.A.'s recent involvement in domestic issues.

I am SO sick of Bush being hammered on the hurricane.

When the Mississippi flooded during the Clinton years, it took him a few days longer than Bush to show up, yet no one whined about it. And they shouldn't have, because he's no more responsible for those floods than Bush is for any hurricanes. The presidents can't really DO anything in a disaster area anyway. They declare a state of emergency to get the funds released, inspect some of the damage, then go home.

NO had many oppurtunities, and offers of help to evacuate tens of thousands of people, yet refused. Amtrack offered trains to carry thousands out free of charge, but were told "No thanks".

The residents were TOLD to leave, that this was not a drill, yet many decided to ride out the storm of their own accord, and snubbed their noses at the numerous warnings they were given. Then, they complained that they weren't rescued fast enough.

To stay in a city which is below sea level during a category 4-5 storm is foolish.

To truck supplies into a flooded city (during the worst natural disaster in our history), is logistically impossible until the waters at least begin to recede. Trucks can't drive in ten feet of water, and niether can trains. That's why the only way to rescue people was by boat or helicopter. The relief effort was a monumental undertaking, and to expect it to done in a few days is ridiculous.

NO was politicized like everything else. This president is blamed for every thing that happens under the sun, yet the city and stae government down there did a dismal job in every area from the top down. many police simply walked off the job. The governer seemed shell shocked, and was absolutely incompetent. The mayor at least tried to convince the residents to leave, yet his words weren't heeded by many. It's no surprise at all that it became an even worse disaster than it needed to be with the lack of real leadership in that state.

Chalabi is also persona non grata in Lebanon I think. He did some bank fraud and he is an all around "not nice guy."

I read that the king of Jordan was asked by Jalal Talabani (Iraq Deputy PM) to pardon Chalabi for bank fraud in Jordan.

But listen you and People's Champ, I didn't post this thread, and if you think that it should be responded to with sources, and creditation, or whatever then go for it.


JJ, no sources needed for the following question: I would like to know in your own words why you feel the president should be credited/commended for the decrease in abortions in the US(if that indeed is true).

The trend for abortions started to decline, generally, in the GHW Bush administration. When Clinton was President he said he wanted to see abortion safe, legal, and rare. Clinton was credited with the decline in abortions amongst other things. For example, just because he signed the bill from the Republican Congress on welfare reform he claimed credit for reforming it. But that was not his position in the campaign. He "triangulated" Republican's Contract with America which was fine with me because I felt that that was the right way to move America forward.

Now when the trend continues to decline why not credit Bush?

I am a Bush supporter and you are not. So you interest will be to minimize his impact and my inclination will be to inflate it.

But all of the things I said were based on facts as reported by groups/orgs like the CDC, the WHO, the Economist, The Wall Street Joournal, CNN, The NY Times, NARAL etc.

There are of course counter examples for everyone. The original point, I think, of Monster, was to just dismiss the post. Which is fine. This thread is a little "fluffy" to say the least.

It is like the little note that Meirs sent Bush about how much she thought he was a great governor.
