The Congress is a disgrace. Everytime military funding came up they held this President hostage for BS domestic programs and earmarks. In the end he caved to protect and fund his military as their CIC, and to protect the U.S.

For two years yes. For the other six? No! Bush had a majority then he himself played Demolite. This is no excuse for the policies and actions of congress or GW Bush. You must remember also no POTUS in history except for FDR had their Executive Branch and it's powers expanded more by congress than GW Bush. He and congress during his term both sides were a miserable Liberal Bipartisan failure. The GOP itself is a Blasted Disgrace which can not be defended any longer.

“For two years yes. For the other six? No!”

Uh, do the names Chafee, Collins, Snowe, McCain, Graham, Warner, Hagel, or Spector mean anything to you? I didn’t know it was such a big secret that some states run 2 democrats against one another and put an R next to one of their names just for the hell of it. Bush hasn’t had a true Republican majority in any of his years as President.

Add to it people like Ted Stevens and Robert Byrd, the pork masters, and Bush had a disaster on his hands. Blaming the domestic problems in this country, with this level of corruption in Congress, on a President with a full fledged worldwide terror battle on his hands is simple minded and only adds to the fuel that drives Liberals.

I’ve become disillusioned that so many on this great forum, a forum that provides every fact that can be checked, seem so willing to put aside rational thought and help to feed the beast.
