There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again.

His approval numbers are going up BTW!

That's because you're a stupid, gullible, ignorant moron.

I mean...could ANYBODY have handled 9/11 in a way that would have made everyone happy? Of course not. When was the last time a president had to handle something on par with 9/11? You think presidents have a handy book named 'How to handle terrorists attack on your soil'? For those that don't like Bush and how he's handled things, how would you suggest the following been handled?

a) 9/11
b) Terrorists abroad plotting attacks on your home soil
c) Foreign governments persuing nuclear weapons
d) Foreign governments/groups contributing to terrorists groups
e) The 'I hate the biggest kid on the block' syndrome
f) Dictator/terrorists that presidents before you funded

I mean, get off your damn high horses. If you can't see the bigger picture then you need to take your tunnel vision off to a subject thats a little simpler like 'which side to butter my bread on'. It's not that simple. Has he made Americans more liked? Maybe not, but how many of the people who are now 'openly' complaining about the US weren't already complaining privately? Sure, maybe Iraq wasn't necessary. Are Iraqis better off today? Depends on who you ask doesnt it? And it also depends which Iraqis. Iraq is 3 (also depending on who you ask) distinct groups of people living under one flag. To say Iraqis are worse off now is a very.....broad answer and also a very near sighted answer. To say they are all better off now is the same. Say you don't like a Texan whose grammar isn't 100 percent, but you do like comedians whose grammar isnt 50 percent. Say he's a bully, if your president was a pussy, you'd be complaining about that as well. Sitting presidents spend as much time dealing with what past presidents have done, than current problems.

Anyway, enough ranting for now.

Osama is just a figurehead. He doesn't plan, he doesn't lead.

Bullshit.

That's as retarded as someone saying 911 was Clintons fault...wait a sec..that doesn't sound so bad. Thousands of americans died because Clinton was screwing around in the White House and dealing with pissed off family members instead of killing Osama.

Hello Mr Clueless. I was using that as an example of how moronic saying Bush caused the lives of 800 people sounds.

Well he did. "Let's invade a country daddy said was bad over a decade ago and is actually trying to rebuild a decent economy of thier own... We can blame them for something, right?"

What exactly did Bush Sr do wrong besides not march to Bagdad and take out Saddam?

"Extending the war into Iraq would have incurred incalculable human and political costs. We would have been forced to occupy Baghdad and, in effect, rule Iraq. The coalition would instantly have collapsed, the Arabs deserting in anger and other allies pulling out as well. Exceeding the U.N.'s mandate would have destroyed the precedent of international response to aggression we hoped to establish. Had we gone the invasion route, the U.S. could still be an occupying power in a bitterly hostile land."

My favorite quote of his is...

Thess wrote:Kuwait was slant drilling for oil into Iraq

August 2, 1990, the day Iraq invaded Kuwait, will go down in the annals of Kuwaiti history as a black day. It was a day that shattered lives and the nation. It marked the beginning of over seven-month long occupation during which survival itself became a nightmarish ordeal.

International telephone lines were snapped. Local television and radio stations were taken over. Attempts to make contacts abroad involved the risk of capture and execution. Most information about conditions inside Kuwait came from those who had managed to flee the country and find refuge elsewhere. Their reports were chilling.

'Freedom', 'Civil Rights', 'Human Rights' -- were words that had lost their meaning. While waking up alive was reason enough to give thanks, it also meant not knowing what new horrors the day might bring. Those who left home did so with the knowledge that they might never return -- the entire city was crawling with snipers and landmines. Not that home provided a haven of safety and security. The Iraqi forces had the free run of the country. They barged into private homes to loot, plunder, torture, rape and execute at will. Any resistance was met with a merciless display of strength of superior numbers and weapons.

Water desalination and purification plants were destroyed. Food and water supplies to the Kuwaiti people were cut off as Saddam Hussein diverted them to his own armies. The ever-present possibility of chemical weapons attacks meant having to sew home-made gas masks.

As in any war, the children were the worst victims. Their world had changed overnight. The invasion and subsequent occupation of their tiny nation came as a bolt from the blue. Before the invasion, Kuwait's crime rate ranked among the lowest in the world. Now they were surrounded by images of death and destruction. Even the sun didn't seem to shine as before. The oil wells set afire by the Iraqis belched thick black smoke that clouded their lives like a bad dream they couldn't seem to wake up from. Sleep provided no respite, not with the constant raging of machine guns and tanks so perilously close.

The invaders gutted all that they could not kill or take with them. Parliamentary institutions, government buildings, the airport, major hotels, clubs, playgrounds and recreation centres were ransacked and destroyed. The beaches were used as arsenals for Iraqi arms. Some of the most fashionable residential suburbs were taken over by the Iraqi troops. Those that did not suit their purposes were torched. Even mosques and places of worship were not spared.
