Bush isn't out of sync, the rest of the world is

from JoeUser Forums
As some would take current events and twist them to claim that President George W. Bush is out of sync with the rest of the world, I would take the opportunity to point out that when Chavez and others like him are saying what you are doing is wrong, then you absolutely know you are on the right track.

The current complaints about George W. Bush are centered around an obvious lack of verbal scolding by W. towards Israel for what is going on in the middle east currently. As Israel literally fights for its life and tries to snuff out the terrorists that surround them, idiots like Chavez and the Eurocrats, and even the Vatican, call for moderation and demand and pray tha Israel cease the hostilities.

NEWS FLASH for those idiots though -- it takes two (or more) parties to have a war and continue hostilities. The Palestinians could cease fire any time, as could the rest of the trouble makers in the area. They could give up the soldier they kidnapped, and start behaving like members of a civilization any time. If they did, then perhaps they would have every right to demand that W. and others smack Israel for using too much force in a conflict that they are perpetuating. As is, they have long since sacrificed that right because they have used tactics of terror and cowardice to try to force change, rather than working through peaceful means to achieve their goals.

To those that want to hawk worthless pulp fiction book sales by using alarmist headlines, keep on keepin' on if you want, but those with half a brain can see through that crap.

Again, if Chavez is calling us wrong, then I'm damned sure we're on the right track.

BTW, I could ask here just how many people wish that Israel would just keep on going and clean up the entire mess in the middle east for the rest of the world? Though I hate thoughts of genocide, and feel badly for the innocent citizens of the countries that have been playing in state sponsored terrorism, I am of the opinion that the world would be a lot better place if Israel took out their big toys and let lose with a few all over Syria, Lebanon, and Iran.

I cannot fathom (and I will admit I have not read his latest one trick pony) his diatribe.  I guess if a burglar breaks into his house and tries to kill his family, he will blame himself.

As for the "rest of the world"?  They hardly disagree with Bush.  But most of the Euro-patsies are trying the apeasement road again as it is not their homeland being bombed.

Sad really.  By the time their homeland is, it wont be their homeland.  Just another colony.

I'm wondering what kind of childish 2nd Grader still thinks the "popular thing" is always the "right thing to do"...

I don't always agree with Prs. Bush, but he has more than proven that he bases his decisions on what he considers the best course for the U.S. I guess to some people that is his downfall, he should care more about being in the "get along gang".

When you look at what the impact of the Bush choices have been on the United States, you do not find they have helped the majority nor are they what is best for the long term interest of our country! You could not document a single major issue that faces us that Bush and the GOP policies have resolved or significantly improved. In fact most issues that faced Mr. Bush in January 2001 are today much worse.

For Example:

Trade
The Deficit
Education
Social Security
Medicare
Medicaid
Border Security
Foreigm affairs
Energy
Environment

... and in every one of the areas sited idiots and obstructionists like the C.O.L. can clearly be pointed at as having stopped any and all progress that could be made as they do everything in their power to keep George W. Bush from claiming a victory.

If you look at the list, the truly only one that can be used as a slam against Bush is the Deficit.  All the others have been addressed by him - even if they have gone no where due to the democrats.  And the Deficit could be taken care of, but then that would entail cutting social programs, which again the democrats oppose.  Although in all fairness, so do most of the republicans.

Since I will not address your useless, factless anti-Bush posts anymore I will take a few of these on.

Trade
The Deficit
Education
Social Security
Medicare
Medicaid
Border Security
Foreigm affairs
Energy
Environment


The environment. What have democrats done to improve the environment? Would you like me to name all the environmental groups that stop us from doing things like building cleaner, more efficient refineries to help process our own oil? How about the liberal environmental groups that oppose building nuclear plants to lessen oil dependence? Oh wait, it's all BUSH'S FAULT.

Border security. Once again I will ask what will democrats do better than Bush. I will admit Bush hasn't done the best on border security, but anything he has done is way better than what democrats have or plan to do. Democrats are supporting amnesty and actually advertising for illegal immigrant to vote whether they are legal or not.

Foregin affairs. Bush has brought democratic elections to several countries, removed several terrorist regimes. That is success col. The only problem you have is that "the world" doesn't always agree. So what col, if you care that much about what France thinks, then move there.

For Example:

Trade: The only thing the president has to do with trade is working with industry to open markets for our goods. The most important commodity we export is agricultural goods. If the president were to use them as leverage for goods we import, you would be among to first to cry foul.

The Deficit: Crying up the wrong Constitutional tree here. Sure, the President submits a budget, but (if you would learn to read so that you could understand our Constitution), it is the Congress that has this responsiblity. Yes, the Republicans are the majority party in Congress, so we can point to them and ask why there is such a deficit. You have no argument with me on that question.

Education: Since the federal government has no constitutional grounds to mess with local public schools, Prs. Bush has already done more than he should have. You are (or were) on a school board... it's pathetic you don't know this already.

Social Security: Prs. Bush has done more to save social security than any other president. The fact that no one really cares whether it's fixed or not is NOT Prs. Bush's fault.

Medicare/Medicaid: Again, these are not Executive Branch responsibilities. Whine to your state government about how the money they are given is misused and robbed. You can start by asking them why the contracted medical organizations recieve money whether the people on the programs seek medical treatment or not.

Border Security: I'll agree with you here. Prs. Bush is dropping the ball on this one.

Foreigm affairs: We are winning in Iraq and Afghanistan and (as much as you hate to see it) the world is not turning against us. Yes, there are protest against the U.S., Yes, there are countries who don't like us. WAH. It is not the job of the President to make sure everyone yells, "USA #1".. sorry to disappoint you and your Jr. High attitude towards what's right and what's popular!

Energy: You were involved in nuclear programs. Tell me again why we can't build more nuclear power facilities? Tell me again why there hasn't been a refinery built in the US since I was in Jr. High? Tell me again why we aren't diverting part of the Snake River to build geothermal power plants on top of natural heat sources in Idaho? Tell me again why?

Environment: When you can show me enough scientists who can agree on what we need to do about "the environment" then MAYBE I'll listen to any laymen heckling of the president over it. The "environment" usually does best when the earth is left to do it's thing. How much money did the world have to spend cleaning the "environment" after Mt St. Helens errupted? The earth did a pretty good job, I say we let it do it's thing and quit meddling with it for political purposes.

There you go Col... for all your whining and ignorance, you don't make any case at all... good day.
