This treatment of a President in a time of war would have been considered treason 60 years ago.

It IS treason, where anyone considers that or not. I would love to see the ringleaders hung for it.

This treatment of a President in a time of war would have been considered treason 60 years ago.

If Bush had been POTUS in WW2 we'd be under joint Imperial/Nazi rule today or still fighting the war while every contractor made a stinking buck off of it.

The man knows nothing about fighting a war and knew even less about declaring such and giving a clear and precise military mission to expedite and get out ASAP with a military victory. Patton, McArthur and other Generals would not have put up with what he did in Iraq. They knew better. They knew what was required on the battlefield and even FDR had enough brain cells to listen to them. Thanks to W, Clinton and W's Poppy Iran is testing us again. What does Iran have to fear? Hammer and nails with new infrastructure headed there way paid for by U.S.?

Bush is LBJ the Second on domestic issues. But wait there is an extra added bonus. For ALL who said a Bush is right in time of war, you or either with us or the terrorist, and all his other one liners well the worse is yet to come. For all who cheered when The Smirking One had his morons seeking databases to collect data on law abiding citizens down to you visiting FR, or had the GOP RINO's in congress expand Executive Powers to levels unprecedented since Lincoln this is for you. Obama will now be enjoying what some Party loving clowns thought were swell ideas because Da Smirking One or his Morons thought of the idea.

Now tell me again what a great president he was. He finished what Poppy and Clinton started by taking this nation to a left position Teddy Kennedy could have only wished came true. He said he and Gore we not that far apart on most issues and By Golly they weren't. Johnson/Carter/ and Da Bushs the worse three presidents in over 150 years all in the span of a living generation.

Bush could have been miles above Reagan. Bush should have been able to surpass the Reagan Legacy. Instead he squandered a six year two house majority he had and increased China's military risk level to us many fold. But hey some corporations made a buch doing this so it's all OK right? Even Russia military wise is back on the mend as is the idea of once again having a Communist state in Europe as well. The Bush's and Bill Clinton along with DEM and especially the 1995-2007 GOP majority leadership in congress {who knew better} have all wizzed away the Reagan Legacy and some think we should now thank them? What Bush and the 1994 elected majority done is a disgarace that we may never as a nation recover from. They abandoned the fight for our nation and I don't mean the war in Iraq either.

FDR came under a lot of critizism so much so an ammendment to the Constitution was added to prevent another FDR.

AMENDMENT XXII Passed by Congress March 21, 1947. Ratified February 27, 1951.
Section 1. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of President more than once. But this Article shall not apply to any person holding the office of President when this Article was proposed by Congress, and shall not prevent any person who may be holding the office of President, or acting as President, during the term within which this Article becomes operative from holding the office of President or acting as President during the remainder of such term.
