Thread: Do you think Bush deserves to be re-elected?

    Of course, but I thought perhaps I could find a way for you to state your opinion without putting yourself in a compromised situation.

    Take care all.

    Well, the economy is not good. I don't see how the war in Iraq is doing much good, now that the soldiers are letting their stress get the better of them. It's not good for our worldly image. Yes, he gets stuff done. But, he's not a good public speaker at all. Kerry might be a bit wishy-washy, isn't the best candidate for the Democrats, and is probably not quite up to par with Bill Clinton in terms of charisma, but he's a better speaker than Bush, so it counts for something. I just don't like the way Bush does things. Al Quida's still out there, yes?

    As is Osama, who was, in case anyone forgot, the original suspect behind the 9/11 attacks, which was originally why we were supposed to go to war in the first place. In Afganistan. Which we did.

    I believe someone has the actual quotes on their signature, but if I recall Bush once said something to the effect of "You cannot think of terrorism without thinking of Saddam" and yet went on to say that there was absolutely no evidence linking Saddam to the attacks.

    Now then, the major question that is brought up by this is why the #$^% are we over there?

    Unfortunately, the answer to that question is known only to the few, and they've been very tight-lipped about it. Sure, "Liberation" sounds nice, but how far is this going to go?

    Side thought: If Bush isn't re-elected and Kerry comes into power, he will HAVE to remain in Iraq anyway. He can't just pull everyone out, because we're in too far. I fear he may be a lame duck President if elected because the Congress is still Republican majority and unlikely to side with him on a lot of policies. It makes you wonder if we're only going from out of the frying pan and into the fire.

    Apparently, anyone can make a poll:

    I know we are in too far deep to get out of Iraq, but I still don't want Bush in office. The first step to returning our country to normal is getting him out of office.

    Hahahahah, holy sh¡t, that link is great XD

    Really, it sounds like quite an absurd question. Of course, I'd choose Bush. Why? He would be in front of me, and I'd have pointy objects nearby.

    And a president who lies on oath and gets caught cheating on his wife is normal? Where as a president who is at war is not normal?

    No, no I wouldn't like to see Bush re-appointed. (He wasn't elected.) It's been constant war, for one, and outside of that total mismanagement under Bush. It seems like everything that can go wrong has.

    Yeah, that's the problem.

    If the biggest complaint you have against a President is what he does in his private life, it speaks volumes about his skill as a leader. Bush is/was an alcoholic, a drunk driver, and a cocaine user. I can sling mud about the personal lives of our leaders, but I realize that it doesn't matter.

    Why would you say that? (Or better yet, can you say why you would say that?) Kerry's been in combat before and has a very real concept of what it's like. Bush, like most Republican war-mongers, hasn't fought and totally avoided military service.

    I'd tell you why I think that, but you or others would probably shoot it down as being conservative propoganda crap. You go ahead and think what you want. I'm not going to try to convince you of anything you don't want to believe.

    I think he just deserves to be taken out back and shot, but I'll settle for him being kicked out of the white house. Can't have everything.

    Bert: Well, such a president (liar and cheater in the domestic area) doesn't eat such a big hole in the population and finances as an honest president constantly fighting a conventional war.

    Why does everyone make such a big deal about Clinton's infidelity but refuse to acknowledge Bush's warmongering involving untrue or untrustworthy information? To say nothing of Bush's "They have Weapons" speeches, followed later by "There is no evidence that they have weapons" speeches.

    Because I like Bush as a president. I agree 100% with the war. I wish we had gone in sooner. If we didn't step up and get sadam out who would? He would still be there hurting his own people while he lived a nice life with his however mant mansions. He would still be killing his own people. Why on earth would you not want to try and get rid of him? I know this will pisss people off but I really don't care but, I for one don't really wanna pay $3 a gallon for gas so if this war saves me some money on gas then thats ok for me.
