Bush is at it again...

[gekko]

Wouldn't exactly call it wasting. Foreign aid is a waste of money, it's not helping us at all is it? But we're spending billions on helping other poor ****s get food and stuff.

I never knew this was hard to understand, but our budget is spent on many things. Not to mention that it's te government's job to protect its citizens, and over 2500 people died in one day last year. Most people will agree that's nothing they want to see repeated, and unless you want to grab a knife out of your kitchen drawer and walk all around the desert killing these people for us, we need to spend the money.

2500 died in one day?!?!?

tens of thousands of people died everyday in the US!!! There are diseases, car accidents, murder, and many other crap. He's not wasting money just because 2,500 people died.

[Professor S]

We spend money on those things everyday, you just don't hear about it. We need to spend money of defense also.

Plus, don't you think all these problems existed before Bush? Of course, they just don't become a media issue until Buish or any other Republican takes office. Look at the huge deal about oil drilling in Alaska. If you listened to the media, you would believe they were knocking down a rainforest, and not 5 acres of land needed to build a platform using modern drilling techniques. Plus, about 100 times that amount of land has been leveled in my county in PA in the past 2 or 3 years alone, and you never hear anything about that. Why? Because then the wildlife refuge wouldn't be as effective as ammunition against Bush if people looked at it realistically.

Take everything you hear in papers and television news with a grain of salt.

Why can't you be one of them?

Ahem... I mean... we're already giving money to prevent that stuff, we have for years. Giving me a $99 trillion budget isn't going to get a cure for cancer tomorrow, and we already have plenty of money invested into stopping diseases, and there's plenty more avaliable if needed. But curing cancer didn't stop 2500 healthy people from getting crushed in a building, did it?

[One Winged Angel]

I know that, but I'm just saying bush is spending way to much money on terrorism. I'm not saying we can spend money to cure cancer, but donate more to find a cure for cancer.

Angrist, FYI, half of the US hates Dubya, and the other half, the "Hicks" who support "Politically-Crrect" illiterrate fools love him.

Personally I can't stand the guy, bt he is my president so I will suport him until 2004, than when I see if te world will be redced to rubble by Bush and an IDIOT Democrtat Running ofr president, ro an Intelligent Democrat (There are plenty of 'em, just liek their are some good republicans), I'll decide which leer to pull, chad to puinch, (insert other voting joke here), and chances are my vote won't be for bush (if it is, a miracle or a disaster worse than WW2 will have to have already happened), so don't wory about that, in 2004, chances are he's out of ther White House, just like his daddy whoeven was oveheard saying "Jeb is supposed to be president, George is a screw-up!" during the inaguration!

As far as Bush being "Elected", he really wasn't, the Democrats got lazy and didn't feel like counting "Hanging Chads" and what not to find out of Bus or Gore had won, and every hour you head "Al Gore won", and then "George W. Bush won" and then back to Gor, and then Bush, until Al gore finally just said "the hell with it" and gave Bush the whithouse to shup evberyone up, he's also probably hiding with Kenneth Star Right now under a rock waiting to die for making a stupid mistake, I don't know which is wose, a President who9 can't keep his balls n his pants, ro a Preident who can say "Subliminal" with out adding an extar Syllable.

As for the Uneducated about the Iraq/America thing, during the Gulf War we knew Saddam had Nukes, or was close to having Nukes ready to be aimed at all of our major cities, we kicked his @$$ once, without a problem but twice is pushing it, the reason dubya wants to attack Iraq is because we KNOW he has Nukes, why do you think one day UN Weapons inspectors are allowed to lookin in one rom, and the enxt they aren't allowed to look in that room but a formerley closed off room is now open, Saddam is just moving his Nukes,. Bio-weapons and whatnot! I say just wait until we have full proof that he has weapson to use against the USA that we can show the people before we attack him, that way we'll ahve more support to nuke saddam ourselves, we know he wants to kill us and he's the only idiot dictator who ahs blatently stated "If I get a NUke, I'm going to aim it at all the US cities I can.", even our buddy, the @44hole Osama didn't say that, Hitler didn't say that, and ever other Terrorist assole didn't say that but saddam did, so he's admited he wants to kill us on international TV! I say Nuke him and get it over with, but wait until the time is right, and that's AFTER Osama and Co. are out of the way 6 fet 8under, pushing up daisies, and so on if you get my drift, than we can go after Saddam, besides, his own people hate his guts for the most part so we have support there as well, I don't think we should declare war on Iraq right now (we're already dealing with on Manical Terrorist, we don't need to stir up a second until the first is gone or it's absoltuley nessacry), and as far as Bush's "World Peace Plan" goes, I hate to say this, but he can't pull it off, he's screwed up too much to do it on his own now, however whoever succeeds him may pull it off eventually, maybe not in 2 years, maybe not in 20, but someday.

Oh, and on a fianl parting shot, I am not a fan of Bush, I don't like his policies at all, he announces when "a building is secure", which pretty much gaurntees that any terrorist illegally getting US TV now knows that the "Secure" building is Secured and will attack another building, or the secure building so it's not secure anymore (You don't annoucne you're straegy over national TV when som Taliban maniac might be watching, it's like telling your poker buddies what's in the hand you were delt), but since I live in the US, I honestly can't say the guy should be thrown out of office illgealy by the mob ro anything, Imay hate his guts and hate his policies, but I ave to support him until the next election, than I can decide if I want to "have his sorry @$$ chueck out the White-House door", or if we should keep him around ( a highly unlikley event), but I'll stand behind him until the next election, just like I'd stand behine whatver idiot was in the whitehouse at any given time unless they themselves were terroists, and whiel bush is an idiot, no argument there, he's not a terrorist.

I hope this clears up my feelign son the president and the US Government, I don't hate republicans in general, I hate incompetant politicans, unfortunalt alot of them are republican's, alot are aslo democrats, and when I way what Clinton did for the country and how he screwed up (probably responsable for 50 billion teenage child births but blanced thew Budget), vs. what Bush did and what he scrwewed up (ignored repeated warnign about terroist attacks, couldn't pronounce several words correctly, but managed to strengthen the military), I'd have to take Clinton, if we look at other Republicans and Democrats in thorugh detail, I can find plenty of Democrats who also screwed up, it's not the party, it's the person, and Bush is just a bad person who happnes to be a republican, Colin Powqell is rather good on the other hand, and Rudy Guilaini was great for NYC, and I don't even live there and I liked the gvuy, so that's saying something.

I just hope John McCain runs again. At least he is a man with integrity.

His approval rating is quite a bit over the 50% mark last time I checked. And last time I checked, it was the liberals who were concearned with political correctness.

his daddy whoeven was oveheard saying "Jeb is supposed to be president, George is a screw-up!"

Give it up. First off, Gore sucks and is a little whiney baby. He didn't say the hell with it. Bush had more votes, Bush won. I guess you're forgetting, we vote with an electoral college. Even if Gore had 100% of the people's votes, it really doesn't matter, Bush still won.

As for the Uneducated about the Iraq/America thing, during the Gulf War we knew Saddam had Nukes, or was close to having Nukes ready to be aimed at all of our major cities, we kicked his @$$ once, without a problem but twice is pushing it, the reason dubya wants to attack Iraq is because we KNOW he has Nukes, why do you think one day UN Weapons inspectors are allowed to lookin in one rom, and the enxt they aren't allowed to look in that room but a formerley closed off room is now open, Saddam is just moving his Nukes,. Bio-weapons and whatnot!

We more of less stopped him once because of oil. Sadaam doesn't have, and never has had the technology to attack us.

I say just wait until we have full proof that he has weapson to use against the USA that we can show the people before we attack him, that way we'll ahve more support to nuke saddam ourselves, we know he wants to kill us and he's the only idiot dictator who ahs blatently stated "If I get a NUke, I'm going to aim it at all the US cities I can.", even our buddy, the @44hole Osama didn't say that, Hitler didn't say that, and ever other Terrorist assole didn't say that but saddam did, so he's admited he wants to kill us on international TV!

First off, as the largest world power, we're supposed to lead by example. Secondly, he never said that.

if we should keep him around ( a highly unlikley event)

It's actually highly likely Bush will stick around. People loved him after 9/11, and with the whole Iraq thing, we won't elect another President mid-war, and if we win, people will like him more. We're at a time where people are worried about being attacked by terrorists, Bush is building our military and attacking the "evil-doers." There's a very good chance he'll be re-elected.

what Clinton did for the country and how he screwed up (probably responsable for 50 billion teenage child births but blanced thew Budget), vs. what Bush did and what he scrwewed up (ignored repeated warnign about terroist attacks, couldn't pronounce several words correctly, but managed to strengthen the military), I'd have to take Clinton, if we look at other Republicans and Democrats in thorugh detail, I can find plenty of Democrats who also screwed up, it's not the party, it's the person, and Bush is just a bad person who happnes to be a republican, Colin Powqell is rather good on the other hand, and Rudy Guilaini was great for NYC, and I don't even live there and I liked the gvuy, so that's saying something.

First off, Bush didn't ignore warning signs of terrorosts. Our many government branches did. Don't put the blame on Bush. And don't forget that Clinton ignored these same people during his 8 years in office. And I'm surprised you like Guilaini, most people hated the guy. His only saving grace was 9/11. But walking around making people feel good doesn't make a good mayor.
