I wonder if Bush is taking notes.

I was wondering how long it would take someone to use this thread as an opportunity to slam Bush. Thank you for not disappointing me

Even if Bush could stay in power for more than eight years, I can't see him wanting to.

But it's just so easy.

Honestly though, does anyone out there still respect the guy?

Also, I don't think you can really call my comment a slam.

For me, that is the uandary that is Bush. I DO respect him, I just don't agree with 75% of his politics. I think he does what he feels is the right thing to do. People want to scream that he's pursuing the Iraq war for fun and profiot, but I don't think even those that say it really believe it because a cursory examionation of the facts show how that theory fails on nearly every level.

I think he really believes that America and its allies installing democracy in the region is the Middle East's last best hope (mthats the one aspect of his presidency I agree with). I think he really believes that providing a legal home for illegal labor helps everyone. I think he really believes that he can cut taxes and still increase spending and it will all work out in the end.

He is not a panderer, or at least far less of one that most politicians, and that I respect.
