I've read that and heard his recent comments. But where was he when he still had power? Why could he not get the Republican Congress to move forward on a realistic energy bill? Even if every attempt they made was filibustered by the Dims, why did he not bring prominent Republicans before the American people and make the case about Dim obstructionism. Remember when the Dims shut down the fedov and blamed it on the Repubs on national TV? Where was that kind of passion with the Repubs and Bush over such a huge issue?

Face it, other than the tax reduction, he has been week domestically. Also, not the best CIC according to his own Generals.

The guy has been dismal and we will be feeling the effects of his poor energy policies for years, if not decades to come. Of course, I hold no hope for Mclame to turn it around. Anyone who wants to work with Kennedy is a lost cause for conservatives. Bet he gets punked, also. Whatever, have the last word...I'm done.

“Dims, why did he not bring prominent Republicans before the American people and make the case about Dim obstructionism”
Bush had a lot say, but the elite democratic media isn’t going to cover it, where have you been?
Where has Bush been? Let’s see:
1.Clintoon people obstructed Bush people an extra two months before they could get in their offices after Jan 01 inauguration, and destroyed files, desks and created chaos.
2. 9/11/01 We are attacked...seems he is pretty busy dude.
And to top it off, Rice missed some important info that he did not get, and CIA (corrupt since Carter) gave bogus info at best....Establishing Homeland Security, a very much needed organiztion...about 20 yrs too late.
3. UN insisted on giving Sadaam Hussein 6 mo warning before attacking...so those trucks on the road to Syria seen by Satellite that only one media showed were probably carrying any WMD if there were any. All time leading up to that was getting allies for the war; a necessary war I believe.
4. Managing the war, Al Queda begins bloodshed daily on national TV, the dems are back to days of protesting war as in Vietnam, (their hippy offspring). The months and years of trying to fund the war, and keep allies with us.
5. The illegal aliens problem is skyrocketing, and the appointment of Supreme Court Justice, and the conflict by dems at every turn for every decision sucking the life out of everything that needs to be done.
6. Iran, and IED’s, the casualties and the election of the dems to congress over the war. DEMS DECLARE WAR ON BUSH..so now the whole middle east is after him, and half of the US dems...I get so disgusted with all this lack of realistic rhetoric. It amazes me he gets as much done as he does.
7. Diplomacy meetings with various country leaders, and the time it takes to get to influence those hypocriticals.
The democrats have taken up the last two years with their bombardment of lawsuits, earmarks causing vetoes and redos, and constant intrusion of time consuming junk to sidetrack him from any useful opportunities.
If you remember a lot of Republicans were disgraced over money, words, or other things that kept them busy trying to hold things together, but that isn’t Bush’s fault. If someone in your company embezzles money, then the top takes the blame, however the top usually doesn’t even know the crime was committed until afterward.

2004 election also garnered almost whole year of campaigning, and fighting for money for war.
The dems said they would ruin any Repub legislation, and would filibuster and create chaos..I think they have been true to their word. don’t you? Is that patriotism? No, but noone blames them for oil and gas problem, although that is where problem is.
Nancy Pelosi went to see Chavez (without permission), and no charges were filed. She and dems stopped Columbian trade bill..postponed it, and she proposed tax on US citizens buying gas, which would eliminate Chavez from paying any tax to US...nice deceptive move, and I wonder what their deal was when she went to VZ.
There are a lot of people to blame for a lot of things, but the devil has everyone zeroed in on Bush.
Why isn’t Nancy Pelosi and dems taking the blame they deserve on not drilling in ANWR, dem environmentalist lawsuits regarding Polar Bears. Put the blame where it belongs for a change.

This is, by far, one of the most disrespectful, unpatriotic and unAmerican posts that I have ever seen on FR.

President Bush is a great man who has been rightfully entrusted with our nation's future. He's a devout Christ-follower, a brilliant military strategist and one of the bravest CIC's that our nation has been blessed with since the War of Independence. He has suffered, sacrificed and bled for our nation. He has given HIS ENTIRE LIFE over to the defense of this Republic...

And yet you come in here and talk about him like he's some common street punk. SHAME ON YOU. All of us owe President Bush a debt of gratitude that none of us can ever repay. Although I think you can start by making a public apology for your wicked comments.
