Another Nero?

I suppose some people also felt that Nero had a sense of humor when he burning Rome to the ground. On a personal basis .... I really don't get "W" or Nero's sense of humor.

the legacy of Bush

I hardly think most survivors of our troops killed under Bush's watch would appreciate Bush's description as a "cool experience."

And if McCain is elected count on more "endless wars." I hope all you war mongers are ready for your children or grandchildren to be drafted if McCain is elected because the only way we can wage war in Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, and resume a cold war front with Russia is to have a draft. Bush and co. have created a nightmare for this country and McCain promises to make it worse.

Yup, its real cool!

Heh heh...

"Pretty cool"! So presidential...

What a dumb-ass; it's like having Beavis in the Whitehouse.

That's ok though, 'cuz many Amerikans would LUV to "have a beer" with him! After all, we KNOW whut's im-poor-tant!

Grammar

Ugh I wish that he would get the object of the preposition right! He should have learned that it's "for Laura and me" loooong before Yale...not to mention the White House.

God bless you President George W. Bush, the greatest president in american history. Thank you for keeping us safe for the past 7 years and for your leadership and strength after 9/11. I can't think of anyone else as president. You are the greatest leader in my lifetime.

Cleaning up after Clinton took some time

Dems can't even articulate the problems they say Bush created. I see how a free Iraq would be bad for the Dems, because it makes them look even weaker. I know I've hated tax relief and 6 years of economic growth and expanding economy. Safer with no terrorist attacks that planned during Clinton's trashing of the military and economy based on lies, leading to the largest bankruptcies in the history of our nation. That's disaster, a country with an economy based on lies, that can't defend it self.

nor does he know how to speak correctly.

Bush

20 years from now we will recognize what a great job Bush has done. Too bad it will take that long for the nuts on the left to calm down enough to recognize reality. They never recovered from their childish fits when Gore lost Florida. Reminds me of my kids when they were in kindergarden.

9/11 President

Bush looked out on the rubble that was lower Manhattan and made his decision then and there what he felt he needed to do.

God bless him for pulling out all the stops to try and prevent attack like the WTC.

I doubt I would of showed as much restraint as he did.

Warts and all, I salute him.
