Anti-Bushies refer to me often as a Bush-bot, yet nobody tells them to stop.

I'm going to call it like I see it on this one, and the DU similarity is one of irrational hysteria contained with in a lot of the posts. And I'm not casting aspersions on people who dislike Bush for legitimate reasons, just on the extreme cases where I think some FReepers are going over the line from genuine concern for our sovereignty and outright bigotry against hispanics and Muslims. Since I've run into more animosity from Liberals than I have from American Muslims that I've met. Therefore, I have more animosity toward Liberals than for Muslims in general. I rank Liberals right up there with terrorists, when it comes to recognizing threats to our security. Hispanics looking for jobs rank very low on my threat-o-meter, and while I would like better law enforcement of our immigration laws, I'm always more concerned with securing our borders against the enemy. But I also think that if Congress wants to toss in the necessary funding, I'd like to see BP up to full strength as defined by the bill they passed a couple of years ago. But I'm also aware that getting the BP up to that full strength level is going to take an act of Congress, and I'm not going to blame the President.

The President has a lot of faults, but he would never betray this country or put us at risk. And that is what a lot of the extremely harsh rhetoric on this forum has been implying.

NOTICE: ALL FReepers - PLEASE stop using the term Bush-bot. It is disrespectful!

Now that that's taken care of, it is ridiculous for people to think that President Bush wants the overthrow of our country. However, it is also completely fair to criticize the policies of the Bush administration when they are contrary to conservative values and philosophy. President Bush did nothing to help his cause with his speech tonight. Like I often tell my son when he tries to "pull one over on me": Don't treat me like I'm stupid! That is what President Bush did to me tonight, and I am not happy about it.

The part that REALLY irritated me is when he talked about the wounded Marine and left an "implication" that the Marine came to this country as an illegal. The FACTS are that one cannot join the Marine's without at least a green card. That was a very cheap shot and President Bush should have been above that.
