I have just joined freerepublic, and I hope that here is a good place to post this query: are all members here supporters of Bush? It seems to me that from all perspectives, from darkest liberal to lightest conservative,
he is a terrible president. He has fought two wars without
achieving his desired objective in either one. And he lies
constantly! He is for "the front line", but has cut funds
for firemen and police. He "supports our troops" but has
cut stuff for veterans. He "defends the environment", but
he lets us drink arsenic and breath mercury. The list goes
on and on.

If you like him, tell us why!

Best wishes,

Sure. I'll tell you why. He keeps our taxes low, he does not bow to rabid abortion groups, he is tough on criminals including terrorists, he speaks plainly and calls a spade a spade, he does not approach the world through humanistic eyes, he is trying to get us off the dependence of foreign oil, he believes faith is a big part of the American way, he believes I should have the right to own a gun, he believes in free markets, he keeps us safe, he does not sleep with interns in the White House, he comes from a respectable family, he does not allow Arafat to BS us about his support for terrorism, he has signed a bill that has given more money to education than any president in history, our military deeply respects him, he does not allow mob-run unions to run all over government, he is principled, he is not wrapped in Jimmy Carter idealism, he is the only president since Reagan to make terrorists pay for killing Americans, he is giving us choice on Medicare and is trying to on social security. You need more?

Questions for you:
Why if he is so bad are people leaving liberal states like Massachusetts, California, Washington, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and New York leaving in droves to come to conservative states like GA, TX, NC, Fl, and Nevada?

Why didn't the Clinton/Gore administration do anything about terrorism?

Why should anyone pay more than 25 percent of their paycheck in taxes?

How do you condone the murder of over 1 million babies a year in abortion clinics?

How can any creature say partial birth abortion is not plain execution?

Why can we abort fetuses, but let criminals get life instead of death for murder?

Why can I not own a gun?

Why should France or the UN tell the US how to conduct its affairs if it cannot tell N Korea or Iran what to do?

Why should the Palestinians be given a state when terrorist organizations are allowed to roam free?

What is the Democratic policy on Iraq? Is there one? More troops? Withdraw?

What's wrong with choice in Medicare and social security?

You need to look at another site. Try the Democrat. Underground.

Ok, there..obviously, you are ill-informed about the state of the world, in general, or the US, in particular. I don't know if you have noticed or not, but we are living in a very dangerous time in history..navigating the waters internationally is treacherous..President Bush has steered the US thru some dicey times since Sept.11th..and he has done it with the focused intensity of a great leader...he has not fought two wars..the US has been in WW3 since 9-11....and we are in the process of achieving those objectives, which does not happen overnight...I can see that you will persist in your belief regardless of what is said here, so perhaps you can post somewhere with like minds..because, here, though there are some who will disagree with the President on some issues, his leadership is not in question...as for the remarks on the issues you address, they aren't worth answering...
President Bush is honest, direct, tenacious, committed, patriotic, spiritual, and humble..he has no patience for BS, and does not suffer fools easily..neither do I...he is every liberal's nightmare....

Good replies fellow FReepers!

Under GWB, Afghanistan was liberated from the tyranny of The Taliban. We did achieve our objective and the people there have freedom and the country is no longer an open, safe haven for Al Queda.

Under GWB, Iraq was liberated from a brutal 30 year dictatorship who tortured and murdered their own people by the thousands, looted the people's money and built palaces for themselves, attacked their neighboring countries (Iran, Kuwait) and million+ died. We have achieved our primary objective and continue to build a free nation.

Under GWB, we have a President who has responded immediately, and effectively, to direct attacks on our citizens...unlike the previous administration who sat on their Radical Islam loving hands after the World Trade Center was bombed in 1993, after the attacks in Africa, Germany, the USS Cole, etc...but found time, money, and will to provide military support to the radical islamic terrorist Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) under the false pretenses of mass graves and ethnic cleansing.

Last, but not least, under GWB we have a President who has moral character and fiber, not a pervert who didn't even have the self control to keep his crooked d-ck in his pants in front of one of his woman subordinates while occupying the people's house.

GWB will not pardon perverts (Mel Reynolds), criminals (Marc Rich), or protect foreign billionaires from prosecution (Riady).

GWB won't hold up public air traffic at LAX so he can get a 'haircut' on Air Force One, GWB won't tell citizens that 'he considered to return their surplus money with a tax cut, but we might not spend it right', GWB won't take bag money from foreign criminals, etc etc etc.

alan17b, we know you are already gone from here and don't have the courage, conviction, or the facts to dispute or debate us. You are just like a pigeon who flies over a beautiful park, poops once from far away, and keeps on flying.

Bye bye!
