this is a bit of an overreaction I think. the US government has done everything the Bush government has done & more (like Kennedy & vietnam). it's only now that people are paying more attention.

almost? just almost?

Oh yea, a Bush-bashing thread!

Here's a guy who couldn't even manage his own life, and yet he is the head of the most powerful nation in the world. Just the invasion of Iraq alone has been an ongoing fiasco. If the memos about an attack on the WTC were ignored, or Flight 93 was actually shot down, or the intelligence about terrorist connections and/or WMD in Iraq were "fixed," or the situation in Iraq has been misjudged--Not only have these things been bungled, but IMO at least some of it has involved a cover-up. Yes, incompetence + belligerence = menace, and Dubya, et al, are a menace to everyone, including our neighbors, and the American people (sound familiar?).

And yah, go at it SOS, go sing the party line

I'm an Independent with plenty of criticism for both parties -- and maybe you missed the thread about all the good things Bush has done. Please feel free to share.

Well, US Foreign policy rather than Bush in particular. Seems pretty obvious to me. I'm surprised that it got beaten out by international organized crime.

I MUST have missed THAT lol. I would remember something like that. Kind of like seeing UFO's... ur not sure what ur seeing, no one will believe you saw it, and im skeptical as to if it exists in the first place

I stood up for Bush in an argument the other day; Somebody said he wasn't fit to eat with pigs but I said he was

you traitor!! How could you?

Precisely he doesn't. Here's an interview with him where he explains why he does give a crap about America http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontl...interview.html

interesting read......

Too bad Bush and his "advisors" haven not read it. No need to ask what is at the root of terrorism. It is made very clear. Why not address these simple issues, rather than plot about how to spread democracy with record deficit spending?

Many Americans wanted to immigrate to Canada after the 2004 election, probably with hopes of being safe from all this madness.

Pengwuino

lol "simple"! Oh yes, terrorism and national defense is a simple matter!


And whats with these "journalists". The articles mainly about Canada's lack of prepration for anything and the title and this thread is about Bush.

The Americans that wanted to immigrate to Canada were the draft-dodgers, the hypocrits, and the rich in America that go out and burn US flags and act like traitors (or in SOME cases, actually fit the definition of traitor to a T). None of them ever actually lived up to their cry-baby tactics and left however.

Well, Penguino, I would be gone already if I could. And blind patriotism like yours is exactly why. But in my case, I had to make a choice between family and country.

But I considered leaving the ultimate act of patriotism. What would you prefer; a civil war?

Pengwuino

What, sensible journalism is considered blind patriotism?

And yes, i can see why you would htink leaving is the ultimate act of patriotism, pff! Thats like the ultimate act of law enforcement would to be evacuate a city and leave the criminals alone. But i can see why you would call that patriotism when you somehow imply that fighting against the US or supporting enemies etc etc is patriotic.

NateTG

I can handle patriotism. It's the ignorance, jingoism, fear mongering, and xenophobia that tick me off.

Isn't that what makes America so great? You always get a second chance? Anyone can become president? blah blah blah, all that American dream jazz.
