Should George W. Bush's face be put on Mt. Rushmore? (Baghdad, 9/11)

[Drover]

Sure, why not.

[Fiddlehead]

W on Rushmore?

Bwahahahahahahahahhahahahhahahahahahahahhaahhahahh ahahahah!

Thanks for the laugh.

We should put Dan Quayle up there too.

[bluesjuke]

No, but I'm all for removing Roosevelt from it.

You'd never guess it from the liberal obsession with him. For someone you want to forget you people sure talk about him a lot. I suppose when you have nothing positive to say about Obama after 4 years that's all you've got.

Obama probably needs a statue though. Maybe make it kissing the Stalin statue in Seattle, that would be a fitting tribute to his presidency.

Mt. Rushmore - no
The Hague - yes

9/11?

The 9/11 plot was already four years in the making when W was sworn in.

Talk to Clinton about that one.

Al Qaeda bombed the WTC in 1993.

By 2001, when Clinton left office, absolutely nothing had been done to address the ongoing al Qaeda problem.


Iraq?


"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."
-Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998

"Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies."
-- Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999

"There is no doubt that ... Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to redefine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies."
Letter to President Bush, Signed by:
-- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), and others, Dec 5, 2001

"We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandate of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and th! e means of delivering them."
-- Sen. Carl Levin (D, MI), Sept. 19, 2002

"We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country."
-- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002

"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power."
-- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002

"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction."
-- Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002

"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are confident that Saddam Hussein retains some stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to build up his chemical and biological warfare capabilities. Intelligence reports indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons..."
-- Sen. Robert Byrd (D, WV), Oct. 3, 2002

"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force -- if necessary -- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security."
-- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002

"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years ... We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction."
-- Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002

"He has systematically violated, over the course of the past 11 years, every significant UN resolution that has demanded that he disarm and destroy his chemical and biological weapons, and any nuclear capacity. This he has refused to do"
-- Rep. Henry Waxman (D, CA), Oct. 10, 2002

"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."
-- Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002

"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction."
-- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002

"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real..."
-- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003

2) Upheld the ban on abortions at military hospitals.

3) Reduced taxes on dividends and capital gains.

4) Made $33 million available for abstinence education programs in 2004.

5) Supports the Defense of Marriage Act - and a Constitutional amendment saying marriage is between one man and one woman.

6) Not once did Iraq ever attack America during his 8 years in office, due to his toppling of the Saddam regime.

7) Expanded the role of faith-based and community organizations in after-school programs.

8) Was the first president to get elected to have a DUI conviction, proving that anybody could be president, regardless of past misdeeds, and providing that you found Jesus.

9) Saved America from the "Clinton Recession" that was starting it's slow creep in the late 1990s, with tax cuts for the rich.

10) "Country-pop" genre of music made a triumphant resurgence during his presidency, moreso than at any time in modern American history.

11) Christian "megachurches" experienced a huge boom during his presidency that survives to this day (albeit with lesser influence), despite President Obama's stubborn "War on Religion."

12) Provided a "moral contrast" to the sexual sins of the Clinton White House.

13) Pushed through THREE raises for our military. Increased military pay by more than $1 billion a year.

14) Killed the old US/Soviet Union ABM Treaty that was preventing the U.S. from deploying our ABM defenses.

15) 911

I voted "YES" because I thought this poll was a joke.

We must never let the Republican Party forget that this man was their leader for 8 dark, terrible years (for thinking people) but yea, Rushmore is a bit much. I want to formally change my vote to HELL NO!
