What truly amazes me about G.W. is how he can't seem to be able to stop himself from screwing up. After 9/11 he had the whole world in the palm of his hand and...he basically told them to get lost. After the 2004 election he had a government controlled by the GOP and...he has almost gone out of his way to alienate his own party. His agenda, lost. He can't even get the Patriot act extended for more than six months, let alone drill for oil in ANWR. (I thought he was an oil man, this should be easy) His own religious organization (his church) has called for the end of the war in Iraq, calling it an immoral war. What happened to Soc. Sec. reform? Rewriting the tax code? etc etc... This guy had a chance to get a lot of things done and now can't get his own party to support him. Can you say LAME DUCK. Really, will someone give him a blow job so we can impeach him already.

I have never seen an American get on the media and shove in the face of Americans that he violated there rights for there own good. Least I would ever dream of that the person that would do that would be the president of the United States. You would think that he would go down swinging protecting our rights.I am amazed at what Mr. Bush said. I really think what is happening is the start of trying to control the the American people starting with a little peice at a time. What has me amazed is that 40% of Americans think this is for there own good. Well let me tell you freedom at any price is what is good for the American people. This is our rights as citizens not something that a leader can take away and violate. And then maybe give it back to you. I am still in the recovery mode from that yet.

It's really not so amazing once you realize that the same techniques made generations of Americans believe that smoking was sexy and still have us driving gas guzzling tanks our economy can't afford.

How is he "the man?" Our economy blows, we're losing Americans lives everyday in the "war", the world hates us, he can't handle helping Americans in times of need (twice? thrice?), and is now attacking our constitutional rights and liberties.
What has Bush done that is so great?

** Saddah has stockpiles of nuclear devices and some of them are already loaded onto rockets and other devices capable of striking NY City, immediately.
** Saddam has an active progran producing poison gas and we know where it is stored all over Iraq.
** Saddam has close ties to Ben Laden and sponcers al Queada terrorist training bases in Iraq.
** "You're doing a heck of a job, Brownie."
** "I'll never allow our military to engage in "nation building"
** "I support the Constitution."
Well, just a tiny sampling, but enough to let you understand why the whole world, short of the Party line Republican gestapo doesn't trust anything Bush says.
BUSH LIES!!!

Heaven forbid you sould try and make sense or at least keep your supposed responses to things said by others relavant to what they said.
What possibly could this overstated absurd rant from the extreme have to do with what permanentjaun said?

Among he most fundamental reasons and principles of the Constitution is to
"promote the general Welfare".
RiescoDiQui, get over it, it's a requirement of the Constitution and is not communist.

promote bdgee.... not give... big difference.
You need to get over your terrible case of mental constipation. The Commie scare turned out to be just another blast of hot air. Worse, it was over a genertion ago for wierdo hate fanatics and two generations ago for everyone that knew a little physics.
Your idiotic remarks about giving things away are strictly out of your one sided imagination, for no one but you has suggested such a thing or anything close to that.
Get this straight, communism does not equate to socialism and socialism does not equate to anti-American. Moreover, the silly notion that capitalism is democracy is childish. Indeed, most of the communist countries became that way democratically and ALL of the strictly non-democratic countries are also absolutely capitalistic.
Your values (and your knowledge of political reality) are straight out of Dick Tracy comics, written (or drawn) to appeal to the intellectually lasiest and poorest in the population.

bdgee..... Time to get over it, don't you think? You're talking about what? Nomatter what you say or what you do, Bush is still the President of this country and there's nothing you can do about that. Blee Blee Blah Blah all you want, but you're a typical Barbara Boxer wannabe just yappin no sense whatsoever so save it for the treehuggin hippies that shop at Trader Joe's. Jesus Christ, get over it already. Maybe you should move to Canada with the rest of the Alec Baldwins who hate this nation.

Courtesy and kindness flew out the window at mach 45 when democrats embraced liberalism. There is a fight in this country right now to vanquish the ideas of your communist center. Your arguements are straight out of the communist playbook. Another thing... no matter how mentally lazy you think I am atleast I can spell lazy without three edit attempts.

Actually, mine wasn't a mis-spelling, it was a combination of a mis-typing and a mis-editing.
Probably his was also, but he's too busy hunting for insults to consider reality.
It's the technique of debate fostered by the Party line. Interrupt anything about to be said that is possibly not from the Party line and shout too loudly for the others to be heard so you can claim only you have provided anything. It's rude, insulting, and arrogant. It's the Party line response to everything. He has followed it to a T.
