* I attacked and took over two countries.


Really, Bush personally went over to Iraq and Afghanistan, single-handedly defeated their armies, and became the ruler of those countries?

* I spent the U.S. surplus and looted the U.S. Treasury.
> * I shattered the record for biggest annual deficit in history.


You must mean congress, it after all has control over all the money.

* I set an economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any
12-month period.
> * I set all-time record for biggest drop in the history of the stock
market.


I'm sure Bush is personally responisble for this...it is ignorance to assume that the President has control over the economy and can make it good or bad at will.

* I am the first president in decades to execute a federal prisoner.


And this a bad thing because...?

* I am the first president in US history to enter office with a
criminal record.


So a 24-year old DUI misdemeanor is somehow worse than a president lying under oath?

* In my first year in office I set the all-time record for most days on
vacation by any president in US history.


And I was the first president to deserve it after doing such a good job in office.

* After taking the entire month of August off for vacation, I presided
over the worst security failure in US history.


So you're telling me that if Gore or someone else was in office instead of Bush, 9/11 wouldn't have happened? I'm sure Gore would have really cracked down on those terrorists.

* I signed more laws and executive orders amending the Constitution
than any other president in US history.


Executive orders can only modify existing law, they can't go against the constitution.


* I presided over the highest gasoline prices in US history and refused
to use the national reserves as past presidents have.


You mean he tried to drill in ANWR but the democrats stopped him.

> * I am the first president in US history to order a US attack and
military occupation of a sovereign nation, and I did so against the
will of the United Nations and the world community.


What was world war II then? There was no UN then, the US decided all on its own to attack and occupy Germany. And the concept of sovreignty is the defense of murderous regimes like Hitler.

* I am the first president in US history to have the United Nations
remove the US from the Human Rights Commission.


You've got it backwards...the UN displaced the US from the commission and put Libya, notorious human rights violator, as its head.

> * I rendered the entire United Nations irrelevant.


The UN was always irrelevant.

> * I am the first president to run and hide when the US came under
attack (and then lied, saying the enemy had the code to Air Force 1)


I'm sure it would be just fine with you if the president was killed in an attack on the white house, but most people don't share your views on Bush being evil incarnate.

> * I am the first US president in history to have a majority of the
people of Europe (71%) view my presidency as the biggest threat to world
peace and stability.


And the first president in history to show how ignorant many Europeans are.

* I have removed more freedoms and civil liberties for Americans than
any other president in US history. In a little over two years I have
created the most divided country in decades, possibly the most divided
that the US has been since the civil war.


The only divide is between mainstream America and the liberal extremists who are frothing at the mouth over Bush's presidency.

* I entered office with the strongest economy in US history and in less
than two years turned every single economic category heading straight down.


:lol: Anyone who knows anything will tell you the economic slump started before Bush came into office.

I'm too lazy to respond to the rest.

It means ordering an army to attack Iraq and Afghanistan, and unlawfully occupy them you dimwit.

Just like every republican. Every time they are confronted with Bush's lying, they say Clinton's lying was much worse. First of all, lying about nuclear weapons is much worse than lying about sex. Besides, we are not comparing Bush to Clinton, that is a separate case.

So you're telling me that if Gore or someone else was in office instead of Bush, 9/11 wouldn't have happened? I'm sure Gore would have really cracked down on those terrorists.

Shut up! We are not saying Gore was better, don't you get it?!

What was world war II then? There was no UN then, the US decided all on its own to attack and occupy Germany. And the concept of sovreignty is the defence of murderous regimes like Hitler.

It means, while the U.N. existed. Also, you don't really think America was fighting for the freedom of Europe, or of the Jews, do you?

You've got it backwards...the UN displaced the US from the commission and put Libya, notorious human rights violator, as its head.

His behaviour made the U.N. do that.

The UN was always irrelevant.

No it wasn't. They have resolved several conflicts around the world, and head importantorganisations such as UNICEF and the ECOSOC.

I'm sure it would be just fine with you if the president was killed in an attack on the white house, but most people don't share your views on Bush being evil incarnate.


The White House would have never been hit. A president always has to make presence, and sometimes risk his own personal security. In Colombia, when El Nogal was bombed, president Uribe went to the site of the bombing as soon as he could to assess the damage and condemn the terrorists, and recently set up his office temporarily in Arauca a far away province dominated by FARC. This gives confidence to the people, telling them someone is in charge.

And the first president in history to show how ignorant many Europeans are.

You are the ignorant. Europeans are far more educated than Americansl, and in the areas in the U.S.A. where people are more educated, there is more opposition to Bush than in other areas.

Yes the Taliban and Saddam's regime were so law-abiding and benevolent, we had no right to get rid of them.

Just like every republican. Every time they are confronted with Bush's lying, they say Clinton's lying was much worse. First of all, lying about nuclear weapons is much worse than lying about sex. Besides, we are not comparing Bush to Clinton, that is a separate case.


Anyone who had done one minute of research and actually looked at the complete 16 words Bush said would find that it was complete truth.

"The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa."

Now tell me thats a lie. You can argue if it was misleading, but not that Bush was lying. And there is no evidence saying Bush lied about his DUI; yes, he covered it up, as any politician would do, but he did not lie about it.
And I don't care so much about Clinton lying about sex, I only care that he did it under oath.

Shut up! We are not saying Gore was better, don't you get it?!


Well its obvious that the accusation that Bush was somehow responsible for 9/11 because he "presided" over it was bullshit. 9/11 could have happened no matter who was in the white house.

It means, while the U.N. existed. Also, you don't really think America was fighting for the freedom of Europe, or of the Jews, do you?


What was Vietnam then? And all the other unilateral military interventions we've undertaken since world war 2?

Well not many outside Germany knew what was really happening to the Jews, so that point is irrelevant. And if we weren't fighting for the freedom of Europe, what were we fighting for?

His behaviour made the U.N. do that.


Well it seems the UN has no credibility when it comes to judging human rights. They have no moral high ground from which to condemn the US for human rights abuses when they put Libya as head of the human rights commission.

No it wasn't. They have resolved several conflicts around the world, and head importantorganisations such as UNICEF and the ECOSOC.


It performs some useful functions, and it still does after the war in Iraq. But that doesn't make it any less irrelevant when it comes to when it comes to security issues. The security council has no problem resolving conflicts, as long as it doesn't hurt the national interests of certain countries on the council (France and russia's oil contracts with Iraq).

he White House would have never been hit. A president always has to make presence, and sometimes risk his own personal security. In Colombia, when El Nogal was bombed, president Uribe went to the site of the bombing as soon as he could to assess the damage and condemn the terrorists, and recently set up his office temporarily in Arauca a far away province dominated by FARC. This gives confidence to the people, telling them someone is in charge.


Did you forget about the hijacked plane that was brought down by its passengers before it could hit its target? That target would have likely been something in washington DC, like the Capitol or the white house.

There was no need for a president to put himself in danger for nothing. If he let terrorists kill him, that would be a victory for the terrorists, not a testament to his bravery.

You are the ignorant. Europeans are far more educated than Americansl, and in the areas in the U.S.A. where people are more educated, there is more opposition to Bush than in other areas.


Anyone that believes the US is more than a threat than terrorism and Islamo-fascism is ignorant and needs to learn some more about the world. So I guess 71% of Europeans are ignorant. I'll admit a large percentage of Americans are too. And the reason so many "educated" people in the US are anti-Bush is because all the colleges here have been hijacked by the Left to indoctrinate students. Its ridiculous to claim that if you're educated you can't support Bush.

These must surely be the words of an intellectual! LOL. So I guess you have visited the most educated areas of the United States?

hmmm... So if this were true then I could make the supposition that Bush actually better represents the poor than the liberal elites claim to. To wit: in general the better educated make more money and are not considereded poor, so if these people side with the Democrats then surely that disproves the old notion that the Democrats are "for the little guy". It would seem that it is Bush and the Republicans that support the little guy as he is more likely less educated.
