OK. well yea.
My opinion on bush is that hes a moron that has no idea on what hes doing. he creates so much controversy on so many little issues that he should have nothing to do with.
example one: Lesbian/Gay Marital rights
No one should have control over who you can & cannot love, if a gay/lesbian couple wants to declare their commitment for each other then let them, & if they want to get married then let them, & also let them have the same benefits as straight married couples.. its not fair just to be deprived just because you love someone of the same sex.
example two: starting a war for an inept reason
Bush started the war on terrorisim, on no soild foundation. he could have just made the whole thing up to make his fatehr proud of him, being so in the past bush seinor had issues with iraq/al quidea (sp.) so exactly what im trying to say is that bush doesnt even know whats going on in his war.

i am out of examples right now ..
but anyways, yes. bush is a moronic idiot.

for further veiws on this subject please visit my xanga & read the enrty for july 21 2004..

i am currently: ANTI-FASCISIM, ANTI-RACISIM, ANTI-BUSH, ANTI-HOMOPHOBIA

He shall kiss my brown ass. hes Anti-everything and he and his dad is the cuase of the war. my opinion sorry to bush supporters.

Well, actually, he's not anti-war, so he's obviously not "anti-everything" as you say.

But before anyone can say "that's why Kerry should win the Presidency", remember that Kerry was pro Iraqi war.

Sorry, just trying to be fair.

based on the posts in this thread, i can tell that most of you guys:

1) follow the crowd (your friends, your parents)
OR
2) are uneducated, and have no idea why you support a certain side

1st...look at this poll. it's already biased. "he sucks", "he's a moron". good job...

ok...you can say that you dislike the President, but at least give a reason (a good one...not just "he sucks" or some stupid opinionated reason).

this is how came to the conclusion seen above:

1)
[quote]In my opinion Kerry is no better than Bush. They're the same.[/quote]
if they were the same, there would be no point of an election.

2)
[quote]hes Anti-everything and he and his dad is the cuase of the war.[/quote]
2 people alone cannot cause an entire war. there were many different factors that played a part in this. check out some of the other anti-bush posts to see what i'm talking about (if you want to).

3)
[quote]My opinion on bush is that hes a moron that has no idea on what hes doing. he creates so much controversy on so many little issues that he should have nothing to do with.
example one: Lesbian/Gay Marital rights[/quote]
definition of "marriage" as found on merriamwebster.com - the state of being united to a person of the opposite sex as husband or wife in a consensual and contractual relationship recognized by law

was the United States not founded on the principles of Christianity? shouldn't it stay that way?

4)
[quote]i am out of examples right now ..
but anyways, yes. bush is a moronic idiot.[/quote]
no...actually it's you who is the moronic idiot. if you have so many problems w/ OUR president, then why don't you leave the country?

that's probably one of the most immature comments i've ever seen. i hope that you're very young, cuz you have a LOT to learn

5)
[quote]Since 9/11 there have been no more attacks on the U.S. That means that we're doing our job over there.[/quote]
i don't really agree with this. after the gulf war (1991?) there weren't any attacks on the U.S. so were we doing our job? obviously not (based on your reasoning) because the terrorists attacked on sept 11

6)
[quote]Clinton was also not a good president setting an example for americans that it is ok to have an affair with your secretary[/quote]
i'm more of a republican, but clinton was ond of the best presidents we've had in a while (besides Reagan). he did screw up by having an affair w/ his secretary, but he's done so many good things to help our country. and i bet all presidents have their own dirty secrets (even though they may not all be known)

7)
[quote]people make such a big deal over 9/11 when actually it shows you just how stupid americans can be. i mean i like this country & all but, we are morons at some times.. [/quote]
this is actually one of the few things i agree w/ in this thread. of course, 9/11 was a tragic day because a countless number of lives were lost. but think about it...how long was our country patriotic? 6 months? and look at us now: we're so divided by parties, pro and anti war, pro and anti bush, etc.

will it really take another tragic event like 9/11 (or even worse) to get our country back to how it should be?

8)
[quote]psh i hate bush. he suks. i hope he doesnt become president again [/quote]
very good argument......

9)
[quote]he's gay[/quote]
same comment as above

10)
[quote]how do ya justify da deaths of muslims way before 9/11?! are ya willin to claim responsibily?! is america willin to take stand on dis?! where were da powerhouses when ppl were fighting endless battles out there. wat happened to ppl in palestine/isreal. this has been goin on way before 9/11. anyway, is america and allies takin stand on da "unfortunate" deaths resulted thru their occupation of iraq and afghan. numerous ppl. women. children. innocent lives. just like those who were killed during 9/11.

BUT PLS!! now is not da time to point who is right or who is wrong. right now wat we need is love. love for all. we are gonna build our foundations again. we won't allow such things to happen or ruin our childrens's future. if ya agree wit me on educting, holla back at me. coz no matter how much we "talk it out here", does it solve anything?! we are not da one who is da recevin end. think abt it.

i come in peace and i shall leave in peace.[/quote]
lets be friends biggrin.gif you're one of the first ppl here that actually think before they write something

11)
[quote]It is really Clinmton's administratinos fault that they didn't not take care of saddam and osauma because if they did, 9/11 wouldn't have happened.[/quote]
you don't know that. if you say that, then you can say that it's the faults of the 4-5 presidents before Clinton, because osama and saddam were both ruling back then

12)
[quote]war is not the answer.. [/quote]
in some cases, i agree...but in other cases (including this one), war is the answer

think about before WWII. germany was invading countries left and right, but britain and france just gave them warnings because they didn't wanna get involved. and look what happened: germany ignored them and kept invading. once they invaded belgium, britain finally decided to wage war.

would the US have to wait until terrorists attacked before we made a move? wait...it already happened (not really...since we attacked iraq and not saudi)

13)
[quote]Watch Fahrenheit 9/11 and you'll know why I think he is a moron.[/quote]
ok...lets go watched a biased movie and make some biased conclusions about the President...........

14)
[quote]Stop pointing the blame at everyone else and get who is responsible.[/quote]
do you honestly believe that Bush is responsible for EVERYTHING that's going on? do you really think it's a one man show? are congress, his cabinet, and his advisors there for no reason?

15)
[quote]. And most of all, please get our troops out of there. If the Iraqi's do not want us policing them, then allow them to take care of themselves. We can make our presence known without sacrificing our troops.[/quote]
you can't make a mess and not clean it up. that's what we're doing in iraq. if we just withdraw our troops, the US will look very irresponsible.

16)
[quote]bush is too repulican, too christian, and too much of a cowboy.[/quote]
i agree w/ bush being too christian. although i think it's ok to incorporate religion in politics, i think he's gone a little too far.

about the cowboy thing...can he really change who he is? i mean, he IS a texan.

17)
[quote]bush isn't a true american because true americans don't send other true americans to other countries to die for revenge.[/quote]
half of the united states doesn't agree with you...because no one would vote for someone who wasn't a true american.

die for revenge? do you really think that the only reason bush entered the war was to have revenge? what revenge? if you're referring to 9/11, those guys were saudi, not iraqi.

18)
[quote]If he adhered to traditional Republican domestic policy, we wouldn't have such a gigantic budget deficit.[/quote]
i always thought republicans believe in deficit spending, whereas democrats would rather save the surplus. maybe i'm wrong (i forgot my economics)

19)
[quote]I've said it before and I'll say it again - I don't want him to be the President for another 4 years. I don't agree with most of the things he stands for and most importantly I don't agree with the war, and the fact that our troops are still over there. [/quote]
[quote]I don't like Bush or the decisions he makes. I do not support the war. But of course, I have no facts to back my opinion up[/quote]
you disagree w/ bush? thats fine. i'm glad you put it nicely instead of calling bush a moron


now that i'm done, i want everyone to read a post i made (http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=23&t=26744) that talks about how some people hate Bush so much that no matter what he does, he'll be criticized, even if it's something good

feel free to leave a comment about some of the statements i said

Kerry swings too much. He can't decide what to go for because he wants people to vote for him. He basically agrees with what Bush has done, and if he wins it'll be the same as if Bush were still President. The number 1 reason people don't want Bush to be President is because of the war. Now what does Kerry think about the war . . .? Oh yeah he's PRO War. So how am I wrong in saying that he is no better than Bush?

dude, even if we did go to the wrong place for the war.. we still got saddam and he has killed tons and tons of people. For everthing that has happened I think Bush is an AWESOME president. For the things that you people are bringing up against him are stupid and a lot of it doenst have proof like that stupid movie that came out. The fat moron guy went out and got little peices and put them together randomly. It's a false movie, and a waste of money... so yeah i like Bush and if Karry wins im scared to think of what our county could turn into b/c he is the most funny looking boring liberal i have ever seen.

Rock ON... and GO BUSH!!

Bush has increased the size of government more than any other president, including LBJ and FDR. By Bush's blatant violations of the law, he is turning the US into a place that is at risk of becoming precisely the type of country that we fought Hussein to get rid of.

Some example:

Gordon Kahl Murder (FBI) - Gordon Kahl, a nonviolent tax protestor, goes on a radio show to denounce the IRS. Several months later, FBI agents besiege his house in Arkansas. He is stripped naked in his own living room, beaten with FBI rifles, had his limbs cut off, and was shot in the head. His son and one of his friends were similarly assassinated. His wife recieved death threats to remain silent. --> This outpaces any horror stories I've heard coming out of Hussein Iraq.

Waco Massacre (BATF/FBI) - A religious sect buys a lot of guns and puts them in a church. The BATF, and later teh FBI, proceed to raid the church, killing 86 people, mostly women and children. The Branch Davidians never attacked anyone. In a free country, people ought to have teh right to barricade themselves...

The War on Drugs (DEA) - Has lead to the HIGHEST INCARCERATION RATE IN THE WORLD. A higher percentage of Americans are in jail (OVER 70% FOR NON-VIOLENT OFFENSES) than the precentage of Iraqis in jail under Hussein. A good indication of how oppressive a country is is the amount of nonviolent offenders it keeps in its jails. By this indication, America is the MOST OPPRESSIVE COUNTRY in the world. The War on Drugs has also lead to many incidences of innocent people murdered by government officials, such as Mario Pax, Johnny Jackson, etc.

And more...

I am NOT a liberal at all. In fact, I believe that the vast majority of our problems can be traced back to liberals ... mostly FDR and LBJ. But the fact is that Bush is not acting like a conservative at all. He is acting more like a dumber version of FDR than a version of Ronald Reagan. We need regime change here, not in Iraq.

First of all....what the hell is wrong with all of you? Bush did an excellent job of carrying this country through one of the worst tragedies that we've seen since Pearl Harbor! And the war in Iraq is a War on Terror. Not specifically on Muslims...BUT if it happens that most of the terrorists who attacked OUR country happen to be Muslims then the President can't help that! I mean jesus chirst...do you think you could've done any better in his situation? I think the President did an excellent job in the white house and I fully intend to vote for him in the 2004 elections. God only hopes that most of you aren't old enough to vote which I suspect is the case.

Bin Laden stated three goals in his terror crusade:

- Destroy Israel
- Overthrow Hussein in Iraq
- Withdraw US troops from Saudi Arabia

We've done 2 and 3 for Bin Laden. It seems to me that this isn't a War on Terror, but rather a War for Terror.
