"Bush has been a disappointment. He has not made any visible or concerted effort to repeal ANY of Klintons garbage, in any area that I can recall."What are you smoking?!
Pilots are now armed in the cockpit. The Kyoto Treaty on Global Warming is DEAD. The International Criminal Court is DEAD. The U.S. - CCCP ABM Treaty is DEAD. The UN was just BYPASSED to smack down Hussein in Iraq.
You call all of that disappointing?! Just what exactly are you for, if not killing those treaties, bypassing the UN, and arming pilots?
And what, you don't want to hold Congress responsible for killing the Assault Weapon Ban renewal?
Congress gets a "pass" from you but Bush gets your full ire?!
Like we don't have ONE single Senator who will filibuster this bill (including the Dems themselves if they are still fighting Bush's judges)?! What, we don't have a House that will kill this bill? Oh no, in your view this is all up to Bush, and Bush alone, to stop?!
Oh please...

Don't smoke, don't drink, but I do look past sound bites!
You need a reality check, so I will give you one.
"Armed pilots in the cockpit"
Not really. Only a very small handful of pilots have been allowd to take the class and graduate. There is no more funding for more classes! The beurocrats have fought the pilots being armed at every step, the requirements to apply for the classes are unreasonable and designed to intimidate pilots into not applying!
Kyoto may be "dead" for the moment, but we have not done anything to prevent it coming back to life under another administration.
Same for the International Criminal Court.
ABM treaty may be dead, but was no too pertinent to daily life in the U.S.
U.N was FINALLY bypassed, once.
We have not withdrawn from the U.N., we have not kicked the U.N. out of the U.S!
The U.N.'s programs to erode our soverienty are intact, their efforts to dictate our internal policies are proceeding, they are still trying to establish a U.N. military force and a global tax to pay for it all!
So yes, I am disappointed.
I do hold congress responsible, but they follow Bush's lead, and his lead in this area is fatally flawed.
