GOODLORD, look who he’s leading into battle for us! How would you like to turn around and see the likes of McCain, Graham, Warner, Collins, Snowe, Hagel,etc, as your backup? WE, the stupid, lazy, uninformed, too busy, too whiny, too bitchy, griping and complaining must-have-satisfaction-now voters put those jacka**es into office. He is leading an army of about 5 true fighters. I’m fed up with amnesty for illegals, the neverending Iraq soap opera, and his general lack of energy, enthusiasm and vision for this country. But FGS, look at the team that was given to him, by the voters. What he needs, his “team” needs, and his supporters need is a good dose of shock and awe. Not the malaise and cynicism that has settled over everyone.
I have to respectfully disagree. Ronald Reagan didn’t have nearly the allies in Congress that Bush had and got a lot more done. Bush’s problem from the getgo was the “new tone” BS. He actually thought he could be friends with the Dems and they would be friends back. One of his first acts in office was to invite the Kennedys to watch that movie about JFK and one of his second acts was to collude with Ted on the No Child Left Behind Act. Kennedy has repaid him with ugly vitriol, but here’s Ted right back in the middle of the Sell America Down the River with Amnesty Act of 2007, and he and Bush are bestest buddies. That is, until Ted stabs Bush in the back the next time.
Bush has been obsessed since the beginning of his Presidency with making nicey nice with those who despise him while ignoring the conservative men and women in Congress who should have been his natural allies. If he has nobody left in Congress to follow his lead, and he pretty much doesn’t, he should look in the mirror to see why.
After 911 Bush had the best opportunity in several generations to remake the country in a conservative image, and he blew it. Completely. Now, sadly, he’s teetering on the edge of being a failed President, desperately grasping at a legacy, any legacy, at least as openly as Bill Clinton did in his final months. And Bush has NO ONE to blame but himself.
I agree with you...
Way to go!
