Bush is just a little rich boy, who did coke as a kid, lied about serving in the military to look good, has a father with a position of power (and money), and who got together with the rest of the upper ranking officials of the GOP and planned a presidential election strategy on little more than the ignorance of most christian voters, and the severe lack of people voting period. Who is now running this country into the ground with such blatant disregards for our constitution such as the patriot act, and the support of almost the entire Republican party, who don't have the balls to stand up and go against their leader when they think something is wrong. Who ALSO uses cheap propaganda, fear tactics, and hazy logic to keep himself elected during a war HE started in a country that was doing FINE without our help. (one of the few in the middle east that didn't have religous turmoil before we took it over) And all while crying "Terror alert Fuscia!" and using slogans like "Un-American" "Hates America" "Protecting Freedom"
It all just sickens me.

By the way, I voted Evil, and I AM an American.

Ya got proof for all of this, or are you just venting?? He actually did coke as a kid? He really did NOT serve in the military?

The war in Iraq was started in 1991, not 2002. THe war in Afghanistan was started on 911 and not by Bush.

As far as planes flying into building killing 3000 people, and embassy bombings, and war ship bombings, and world wide terror activity, would suggest a little more to this threat than just scare tactics and propaganda.

Please, if and when the fight comes back to America, I don't want you backing me up, I would rather have you in front so you could be kept an eye on. Another terrorist lap dog!!.sighhhhhhhhhhh

Bush will go down as one of our Nation's greatest presidents.

This man represents everything I want in a leader: courage, steadfastness, indifference to moody public opinion, and good conservative Christian values.

I think more people need to do some research before they come to a conclusion.  If all you watch is CNN, you will hate Bush.  If you want to get real news, avoid the TV altogether.

Jesus said, "the poor will always be with you."  Yet we still give money to the poor, and that is a good thing.  On the same wavelength, there will always be terrorists.  This does not mean ignore them.  We need to address the problem rather than giving up and coming home.

I agree with Hellfire.  And proofs, i gave you hundreds of proofs.  Reread the posts before this one.   As far as I know there was no afghan people in the attacks in 9/11, why didn't Bush go after Saudi Arabia then?  If Bin Laden was at Afghanistan, it's another story, but who the hell you think gave him training?  Then Bush should go after US.

Wait, now I see... George W. Bush is responsible for something that happened during the cold war era? Ah right... ok... well yes... the U.S. training them to fight against the Soviet Invaders (and I don't deny that was a selfish act against the Soviets, not to aid the Afghans) really gives the Al Qaida (or however they are really spelled, seems like there are 1000 variations) the right to bomb thousands innocent people...
Btw the reason why they fought Afghanistan is that it was actually 'governed' by the Taliban.


Regarding the original question: Mostly good, non-American. Yes they are greedy, but so are ALL important politicians. Face it. Other than that, they did many things I think were good.

As someone else in another thread said :

other people live, while lowing exists

lowing is a scared little war mongerer.  He can't accept the fact that America is not the most vulnerable country ever in human history, he can't accept the fact that in the Global War on Terror, about 0.1 percent of people died compared to WW2, and anyone who disagrees with him and his delusion that the US will be nuked by the end of the decade by a bunch of criminals and that hundreds of thousands of terrorists will pop up instantly in our backyard and begin killing us, he calls a terrorist lapdog, a pussy, and an America hater.

You're right lowing, when there's a civil war in the USA because of neo fascists like you, most of us will probably be on the other side.  But oh well, not like you'll care or even accept the fact that people are allowed to disagree with you, because that would mean you're an un American pussy terrorist lapdog too.  sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

First, I don't have concrete proof for all of it, but then again, neither did we when we went into a country that "definitely" had weapons of mass destruction, and didn't.  And do you have proof he DID serve in the military?
and also, those planes got  there because the watchdog organizations set up to protect us from this sort of stuff did nothing about it with information saying something was likely to happen. Not to mention how people criticize the "liberal" media, then says nothing as Fox News goes about touting Bush as the greatest thing that has ever happened to this country, while simultaneously calling liberals and democrats "unamerican" and "America haters"  While our own president goes on to subsidize BILLIONS of dollars to the oil companies that already make BILLIONS off of us.  Seems kind of odd that we would give them MORE money after they keep jacking up prices for no real reason.
And to be honest, if terrorists actually got around to mounting an attack on this country, which they will if we keep spending money, lives, and our reputation worldwide on a war in a country across the globe, pretty soon the terrorists will be bringing the fight to us, and they won't just be afghans. You can't just go around pissing people off willy nilly and have no one stand up and fight back.
Also, Sigh only has one h, and if I was a terrorist lap dog I would probably not even bother saying anything about the president. If anything he seems to be helping the terrorists out by giving them more reasons to get new recruits to fight us.

to both of you:

                   I am not sure where you get this war mongering stuff. I am not advocating conquering the world because I am afraid of it. I am saying our country has been attacked, and will continue to be attacked as long as we do not do something about it. I think we are all in agreement so far based on what I read from you.

Now, where we part company is what exactly to do about it. For me, all I am saying is kill all of your own people all you want, you screw with the US and you will pay for it. Your stance of just needing to understand the terrorists and listen to them after they just killed 3000 civilians in America alone is completely unacceptable to me. If you really want this war to end peacefully, then these Muslim radicals need to stop killing civilians or keep getting killed themselves. I do not agree with negotiations with terrorists.

If anyone is brain washed it those of you think the whole world will turn in the garden of Eden if Israel is destroyed. Their goal, as it has been stated is world conversion to Islam, and death or enslavement to those that do not. You are advocating giving them Israel in hopes they will leave us alone. Tell me again who is scared?

Exactly.  I actually agree with your entire statement right there. 

But it's the way you're saying it is what bugs me : you're making it sound like all Islamic terrorists are under one roof, when in fact they differ greatly in the ways they fight, what they really believe in, what they're fighting for, etc.  The terrorists in Iraq have NOTHING to do with the terrorists who detroyed the WTC.  I agree, we need to do something, that's why I think our invasion of Afgahnistan was a necessary one.  But Iraq, on the other hand, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out of line right there.  The Afgahnistan and Iraq wars draw a fine line between self-defense and imperialism. 

But as far as your statement above, I don't think (actually, I know) that no one in the US actually listens and wants to negotiate with terrorists (except maybe 0.000001 percent of liberals, the extremist communist militant ones).  But for the most part you're under a delusion that liberals want to negotiate and listen to the terrorists.  The fact is, most libs view them as you do : criminals who don't give a shit about innocent people.  As far as Israel goes, they have a terrorist government just like Lebanon, maybe not to that extreme, but they definately aren't the peaceful, good willed kind of government that they'd like everyone to think of them as.

Just remember, terrorism is an abstract noun.  You can't combat terrorism, it'd be like trying to fight against nightmares or seasickness

But as far as your statement above, I don't think (actually, I know) that no one in the US actually listens and wants to negotiate with terrorists (except maybe 0.000001 percent of liberals, the extremist communist militant ones).  But for the most part you're under a delusion that liberals want to negotiate and listen to the terrorists.  The fact is, most libs view them as you do : criminals who don't give a shit about innocent people.  As far as Israel goes, they have a terrorist government just like Lebanon, maybe not to that extreme, but they definately aren't the peaceful, good willed kind of government that they'd like everyone to think of them as.

Just remember, terrorism is an abstract noun.  You can't combat terrorism, it'd be like trying to fight against nightmares or seasickness
I do put Islamic terrorist under "one roof". That is the roof labeled "HUNTERS OF INNOCENT CIVILIANS for the GOAL of MOVING FORWARD THEIR OWN AGENDAS".

I don't really want to get into the reasons as to why we are in either country, you and I have been over that so much I could type it all blind folded now.

So let me ask this, instead of destroying Israel and "see what happens" with the Muslim radicals,which has been suggested by the majority of you, why don't the Arab nations surrounding Israel leave them the hell alone, and lets see what happens then. I am convinced that Israel is not interested in anything except a peaceful existence, and the ONLY nations that need to worry about Israel are the ones that constantly screw with Israel.

It is an all or nothing position with the Arab nations, Israel did in fact pull out of Gaza and out of the west bank last year http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel's_u … ment_plan, at the detriment to Sharon and his office. This apparently wasn't good enough. Again it is all or nothing with the terrorists, and since we both agree on NO NEGOTIATIONS, what is it we are left with?? We succomb or we fight, the thrid option eludes me.

If you really want this war to end peacefully, then these Muslim radicals need to stop killing civilians or keep getting killed themselves. I do not agree with negotiations with terrorists.

If anyone is brain washed it those of you think the whole world will turn in the garden of Eden if Israel is destroyed. Their goal, as it has been stated is world conversion to Islam, and death or enslavement to those that do not. You are advocating giving them Israel in hopes they will leave us alone.

If we are going to mention someone pushing their own agenda at the cost of innocents, how bout how illegal Jewish immigrants founded Israel by taking up arms and using terrorism to get the British and the Palestinians off them?

They killed innocent Palestinians for their land and what did we do?
We gave em a pat on the back, recognized them as a state, and started selling them weapons...(correct me if I am wrong here)

Ok you are wrong.

"On the 29th November, 1947, the United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution calling for the establishment of a Jewish State in Eretz-Israel; the General Assembly required the inhabitants of Eretz-Israel to take such steps as were necessary on their part for the implementation of that resolution. This recognition by the United Nations of the right of the Jewish people to establish their State is irrevocable. "

Ya got proof for all of this, or are you just venting?? He actually did coke as a kid? He really did NOT serve in the military?

The war in Iraq was started in 1991, not 2002. THe war in Afghanistan was started on 911 and not by Bush.

As far as planes flying into building killing 3000 people, and embassy bombings, and war ship bombings, and world wide terror activity, would suggest a little more to this threat than just scare tactics and propaganda.

Please, if and when the fight comes back to America, I don't want you backing me up, I would rather have you in front so you could be kept an eye on. Another terrorist lap dog!!.sighhhhhhhhhhh
First, I don't have concrete proof for all of it, but then again, neither did we when we went into a country that "definitely" had weapons of mass destruction, and didn't.  And do you have proof he DID serve in the military?
and also, those planes got  there because the watchdog organizations set up to protect us from this sort of stuff did nothing about it with information saying something was likely to happen. Not to mention how people criticize the "liberal" media, then says nothing as Fox News goes about touting Bush as the greatest thing that has ever happened to this country, while simultaneously calling liberals and democrats "unamerican" and "America haters"  While our own president goes on to subsidize BILLIONS of dollars to the oil companies that already make BILLIONS off of us.  Seems kind of odd that we would give them MORE money after they keep jacking up prices for no real reason.
And to be honest, if terrorists actually got around to mounting an attack on this country, which they will if we keep spending money, lives, and our reputation worldwide on a war in a country across the globe, pretty soon the terrorists will be bringing the fight to us, and they won't just be afghans. You can't just go around pissing people off willy nilly and have no one stand up and fight back.
Also, Sigh only has one h, and if I was a terrorist lap dog I would probably not even bother saying anything about the president. If anything he seems to be helping the terrorists out by giving them more reasons to get new recruits to fight us.
Ya mean, stop pissing people off and giving them reasons to attack? Like flying airplanes fulll of civilians into city and federal govt. buildings killing 3000 people, maybe??

As far as Bush and the military, look it up, he served, although there is controversy about 6 months or so during his service.

Vietnam was never about liberating anyone. It was about trying to secure a french hold over the land in order to deprive the soviets of a potential ally. Every endevour during the cold war was selfishly intended to remove a potential soviet ally.
More than that, it was to deny the Soviets a convenient warm water port. Also, as some have it, it was one of many ways of spending the Soviets into the ground.

Actually, 1947 was when the UN Recognized Israel as a state, NOT when the jews started taking land illegally.
There is actually a topic going on about this right now in this very forum. > http://forums.bf2s.com/viewtopic.php?id=39998


And as for the flying planes into buildings killing 3000 people....
We had intel saying they were planning something, we had people on terrorist watch lists going to pilot school wanting to learn how to fly planes, not how to land them.
And we did nothing about it.
They attacked us because they are a radical group that just plain hates America. (If I remember right)
But all we've done since then is justify their actions by screwing around halfway across the globe in a country that had NOTHING to do with this. I REPEAT, NOTHING TO DO WITH THESE TERRORISTS.
This only pisses people off, which makes more terrorist recruits for more anti-American attacks. See the logic?
Terrorism isn't something you can fight with an army, it's something that is best fought through PREVENTATIVE MEASURES, like for example NOT pissing people off for no reason.

Are you saying that Israel started taking land illegally during the 6 days war when the Arab nations launched an attack on Israel and Israel kicked the ever living shit out of them in less than a week?? There is a lesson to be learned in there somewhere. I will look it up.
Bottom line Israel was established by the UN not the US, as was suggested.

As far as people learning to fly planes and not landing them: according to you liberals we have no right to do anything about  that since taking flying lessons and not being interested in landing probably isn't against the law. You are not advocating violating civil liberties against terrorists are you? My god next thing you know we will start listening in on there conversations and reading their e-mails!!

You bitch about all the govt. DIDN'T DO prior to 911, and now you bitch about all the govt. is TRYING TO DO post 911!! No attacks since 911,and several foiled attempts. Sounds like something positive is being done now, so you should be happy. Unless of course you want the white house in '08

We were not "fighting a war in a country we didn't need to be in" on 911. yet we were attacked. Please stop trying to push the notion that they will leave us alone if we leave them alone. There has been no such proof that is the case.

It's one thing to check out a guy who is ON A TERRORIST WATCH LIST, and wants to learn to fly a plane, not land it.
It's a completely different one to perform warrantless searches using secret courts with no real overwatch. (not to mention circumventing our constitution.)

And by the way, this is quoted from that forum topic I was mentioning earlier:

CameronPoe wrote:

The UN did not 'establish' Israel. Jewish immigrants 'established' Israel through violence and through the driving of hundreds of thousands of people from their homes and land. After they had stabilised the area, countries then began to start recognising them as a state. The UN plan of which you probably speak was never implemented.
And actually, on 9/11 we were attacked by an AMERICAN HATING RADICAL TERRORIST GROUP.
Not alot we can do about that but try to look out for attacks like it.
It's completely another thing to try and keep OTHER terrorist groups and the like from beginning to hate us too for interfering in their country/etc.

And also, I was not suggesting the U.S. established Israel, I was stating that we didn't even sanction the damn country for their actions. We just congratulated them and recognized them as a state.

You're not wrong at all.

Haganah and Irgun (2 zionist terrorist organisations - Haganah later became the IDF) drove the British governing forces out of Palestine with their terror campaigns and declared Israel a state. This was legitimised (I can't see why, other than to end the violence - which hasn't happened) by the UN undder the partition plan.

Israel is a state of illegal immigrants who took over through terrorism. The state of Israel are the most successsful terrorist organisation of all time.
