Bush's Successes

Dear Reader,
I'm getting sick and tired of my fellow Americans
saying that the presidency of George W. Bush is a
failure. With the string of successes he's had,
nothing could be further from the truth. Let me list a
few:
1. He has successfully rid America of that troubling
budget surplus and turned it into a $500 billion
deficit.
2. He has successfully helped America's trading
partners have the highest trade surplus with us in
America's history.
3. He has successfully lowered the taxes for the
richest Americans and corporations at the expense of
99% of the American population.
4. He has successfully started another Viet Nam in
Iraq after lying to the whole world.
5. He has successfully pushed the price of gas up to
the highest level ever here in America.
6. He has successfully allowed American corporations
to dramatically increase their pollution.
7. He has successfully thrown about 10% of the
population out of work.
8. He has successfully allowed corporations to export
our best middle-class jobs.
9. He has successfully divided our country as never
before.
10. He has successfully driven our oldest allies away.
11. He has successfully united the terrorists as never
before (he said all along he was a uniter, not a
divider).
12. He has successfully broken his oath to uphold the
constitution of the United States of America.
13. He has successfully united Democrats (yay!) as
they haven't been for years (I told you he was a
uniter).
14. He has successfully driven me out of the
Republican party for the rest of my life.
You know, with a string of successes like that, it's a
wonder America is still standing.

That sounds pretty "hatefull" to me. We just don't like the constant bashing we get for being "liberal" and viewing things a little different then you.

I am a liberal, and I would tell you I resent that statement, but you might misconstrue that as hate. A different opinion does not equal hate, though it is just as hard to understand as hate is for those of us who do not have it in our hearts.
You said also, "I have honestly seen that there is no way to talk any sense to an intolerant, biased, disillusioned, close-minded, flip flopping, ill informed bunch of liberals who have hate in their hearts. They Say they are liberal , but good greif they are among the most biased people and hating People I have ever seen :( I have NO desire to argue with any more idiots."
wow! who's the hater here??? Idiots? I think that is a pretty hateful word, but that is me, and I was brought up not to call people idiots. I have called people ignorant, but I work on that every day. Just because someone does not agree with me does not make them ignorant. In fact, it gives me a chance to learn more about them and me.
Spiritedtruthseeker, I disagree with you, But I love you anyway.
I am not saying that you need to respect Bush specifically. I am saying that our president, no matter who it is, Bush, Clinton, Kerry, or whoever deserves our respect. You don't have to even respect the person, just the President. This is America and I do appreciate everyone's rights to vote for and disagree with the president. I just feel that the man who is doing what he thinks is best for our country deserves respect.
I also want to say that anything "out there" that I may have said on my previous post should be disreguarded. I am pregnant and hormonal and sometimes say (or type) crazy stuff! :)
My opinions are the same, just keep in mind that I'm not as "witchy" as I may have came across!! :)
The Republicans always build up the military funding and then the Democrats come in and take it away. I firmly believe that out of every wage paid in this country, our military should be of the highest. I voted for Bush in 2000 and will do so again in 2004.
Hi pjsafe!

I was always taught that respect is earned, and it is a 2 way streat. President Bush has no respect for many of the views I hold as important, therefore I don't have to respect him, no mater who he is.
If I were still in the military I would be required to show a certain amount of respect for him/his position, but I'm not.

now here are people who have earned my respect (and a LOT of laughs from me too):
