If you want to converse with people who agree with you stick to the liberal forums that are out there.

Uh no. I would be part of the "rest of us" and could not disagree with you more.

Sorry Cali, you simply are not a spokesman for the majority.

I'm a little confused as to why, if he had this so-called "conviction", it still took him 16 hours to make the decision? If it was what he wanted, at his core, it would have been a no-brainer.

Unless, of course, he just put off pulling the trigger because he was preoccupied with golfing, or fundraising, or partying. Those are legit options also.

Factual statements? Huh.

Well I guess I would say I'm really glad factual statements find a welcome mat to my head.

To each their own I guess.

I actually believe that the history books will not be kind to Bush.

Now you can type your usual "What about Obama retort"
or Carter and quite possibly your hero!!! Time will tell, not that the historians are always right.

why do you think being intelligent has anything to do with being a good or bad President? Certainly Carter was thought to be very intelligent, but certainly he was not a good Pres.

yes, it will remain part of his legacy which it should be, the same as pushing government healt insurance down our throats, watching the unemployment rate go from 7.1 to above 10% and now barely down to 9%. He continues to watch foreclosures come to no end and doesn't seem to know what to do about it even though he gave home buyers $8.000.00 last year to buy homes and who paid for all those give aways? yep, he will be remembered for being part of the assassination of Bin Laden (btw: he did not kill him, the military did)
