I think Bush needs and deserves intelligent and constructive criticism when deserved. That is what it means to be a responsible citizen. JMO.

Come to think Bush needed a lot more of that where it counted on a considerable number of issues. Bush inter alia was very slow in reacting to events in Iraq, and poorly planned the post Saddam exit strategy, in many ways. JMO as well.

I do not agree with the President on everything though I agree with him on the vast majority of things. I try to refrain from criticizing him on this great forum because even if there are some freepers who make "constructive criticism", the flood gate will be opened for the Bush Bashers.

Torie, notice how many threads get quickly hijacked by the Bush Bashers and the few constructive criticism will be lost among the Bush Bashing, Republican Bashing and in many instance the Bashing turns into incredible rage and hate that is a bad as those made by left wing luncatics.
