I too am not happy w/ all GWB has done for our great country. You can critize as you wish, that is your right. Our president walked in the ruins of the WTC with everyone yelling to get even. He had the balls to do it. From all the information available he attacked with the blessings of all the liberal scum that are now attacking him. Fighting the battles where we are, keeps it from our streets. The way things are going w/ the a$$ hole muslins you want Ms clinton, Kerry, Kennedy, Obama leading us into battle?? Or will you just lay down your arms and throw away all that we fought for since our Declaration of Independance was written. I'm too old to go back into the military again,but When the bastards attack my home, they will have to get me early or climb over their fallen comrades to get me cause there will be a pile in front of my home. God bless our country and our President. He needs our support. Len Weller

I'll be beside you Len! and d-mn proud of it!

I would lke to add one more response to this thread. I do not want to be associated with the liberal Democrat supporters on this forum. I am a conservative. This is why I'm having problems with the president. The "buck" stops with him. He should have taken care of a lot of business when he had a majority in Congress; i.e. immigration, tort reform, tax reform, (remember the flat tax), border security, military concerns, etc. The military is being restrained in every way. The liberal press and the Democrats want the war to run like a football game and giving the enemy their "props". We spend more time investigating our troops than we do fighting the war. This all lies on the presidents shoulders. Him and that do nothing Congress, (and yes that means the Republicans for 12 years), have given the Democrats the power to make this country weaker than it already is. Bottom line, secure our borders and if you want to fight a war, then fight it!! Maybe they should read General George S. Pattons book. He always claimed that the object is not to "die for your country" in a war. The objective is to make the other ba$tards die for their country. I wonder how many post holes have been dug for the border fence since Bush signed off on the construction of it?? I see no light at the end of the tunnel. A lame duck president with a lame congress. Then when we get that poor excuse for a human being, Hillary Clinton, as our president; this country will be in chaos. My opinion. Ed

len w, and those who are with him,

Four years of war makes us lose track, sometimes, of what this is all about.

People were yelling for Bush to get even, and he does have balls. And what he did at first was exactly, perfectly correct. He went after Al-Qaida in Afghanistan.

We've in Iraq now, and somehow we have to finish the job. But I don't see how anyone can think W. did the right thing by going in there. Not with the hindsight we now have.

Saddam was a bad man. But with better intel we could have known that he didn't pose an immediate threat. What he was doing was controlling radical Sunnis and Shia, which job has now cost us $300 billion, 3,000 deaths and untold trauma to this country.

Now I read that Al-Qaida is "surging" in Afghanistan and Pakistan. That is where we should have sent the 150,000 troops.

For the past several elections and administrations I've wondered do these individuals represent the cream of America's crop in intellect and leadership? Are these on caliber with the founding fathers and some of the very rare equals since then? My feeling is no.

My simple mind would presume that since there are many more millions of us in our fair country, that the pool of remarkable people to choose from would be proportionally larger. Where are they? I suspect most likely in business, academia, or active duty, certainly not in politics. I want another George--George Washington. It'd be nice to engage his kind.

Here I sit, high school graduate only, worked hard, served my country, raised a family paid my taxes. I own a nice home, 3 vehicles, 20 guns and thousands of rounds of ammo, can call the president anything I want and not get arrested. I can travel anywhere I can afford, play golf 3 days and shoot 2, got pretty good health care. Unemployment is low, stock market making records,yeah, life really sucks and it's all Bush's fault, man I just can't take much more of this tough life most of us live. I'll give you Iraq is a mess but look back on Gores and Hillary's speaches and they were saying the very same thing Bush said, he just did it. Every intellgence source said there were WMD's. As far as politicians, if their lips are moving they are lying. We still got it better than 99% of the rest of the world and most of the world wants to live here. Bush isn't perect by any means but nobody can match Carter for stupid and Johnson for corruption. Clinton and Kennedy entertained a lot of women while in office. I'm voting for Tancredo if I get the chance, just my opinion and it's worth about .02, just like yours. ftlupton

ftlupton, you hit it right on the head. Bush is doing exactly what he said he would do and he was heralded for it in 2003, and now he is being persecuted for it. He said that "the war on terror will not be confined to one country and it will not be over in my lifetime" This country does not have the stomach for war and has not since WW2. The libbies are the ones who have changed their tune. they all made speeches that sound just like what Bush has been saying. I know things have not always gone as planned, but the option of "ut and run" is going to be inplemented and I doubt very much if terrorism is stopped by that approach. We will soon see I am afraid as the dems are hell bent on bailing out of this war.
