Homemom, as our federal government has grown ever more enormous, we in the general public have come to expect our presidents to be involved in such a vast array of issues that it's beyond comprehension. Even under the best of circumstances, such as in a very loving marriage, no two human beings ever agree 100% on everything. So it's unrealistic to expect to agree with any president on all the extraordinarily wide range of issues that come to public attention 24x7x365. I commend you for giving GWB the time to earn your trust.
Well, thanks.
AFter 8 years of x42 and his *wife* and their shenannigans, it took awhile to believe anyone in the govt. And you're right, I don't necessarily agree with everything W. says and does. However, I can be SECURE that he will do what he thinks is right, and that does NOT depend on the latest poll. Also, he bases his decisions on what he thinks is God's will, not his own, and again not depending on the polls.
The thought has popped into my head the last few days that the Pres. and Laura might show up in Iraq to watch some people vote . . . I'm sure it's entirely too dangerous, but I bet they wish they could be there. When I see Iraqi people voting, with tears of joy, dancing, saying they hardly slept last night from the excitement, I KNOW we did the right thing. :-)
