Amen! He is the most consistent politician I have ever witnessed. A man who says exactly what he means and does exactly what he promised within the reality of the political world.
I'm with you on the seminar calling trolls too. You've been around much longer than I, but in my time here on FR, the predictability of someone who comes on this forum saying, "I voted for him but now he's disappointed me" being an imposter is nearly 100%.
I have to say, that I really appreciate your understanding of history.........something that is completely lacking in most of the bashers. I'm afraid most of them are graduates of very weak public schools, and never learned anything about politics, political parties or history along the way.
I've been a news/political junkie since I was a baby and that's NOT an exaggeration. My mother programed me to be one, from birth. My beloved mother was also a history fanatic and so, I followed in her footsteps, in that as well. Posting erroneous and often spurious things, as "fact", drives me up a wall!
Sadly, many people here, though professing an interest in and knowledge of politics and history, are abjectly lacking ANY knowledge or comprehension of either. If there was an entrance test to belong to FR and a second one, which members had to pass with but 70%, after a year or two, there would be far fewer FREEPERS and a whole lot more intelligent postings!
President Bush is one of the so few as to be negligible, presidents who ran and governed the same way, no matter what they ran into/was thrust upon them. Anyone, ANYONE who claims that they voted for him, but now he hasn't/isn't doing what they expected, had NO idea who or what he was when they voted for him, or is lying.
