According to a Rasmussen Poll (http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/current_events/general_current_events/54_say_u_s_has_changed_for_the_worse_since_9_11 - broken link) 54% of the public feel America has changed for the worse since 9/11, only 24% say it has changed for the better.
Six weeks after the terrorist attacks, 57% said the nation had changed for the better. By Jan. 2002, 61% felt that way, but the number has been falling ever since.
Gee, I wonder who we can blame for this? You don't have to look far...1600 Pennsylvania Ave. As has been repeated over and over, Bush had a golden opportunity to bring this country together, instead he drove a wedge in it.
we can blame ultra far leftist george bush for proposing the iraq war. that's what liberal policy does. we need a conservative a la calvin coolidge. let's not fool ourselves. the world has been changing for the worse a lot longer than just before 9-11. we have been in decline for decades.
I'd like to see these polls, because they are menipulated. All of us who've had statistics in college all know that it's nothing for a sample to be contaminated with the majority vote for negative results or positive results.

they don't get any more liberal than GWB. you can deny it all you want, but I bet you can't cite a single conservative thing he has done.
I can't name ANYTHING he has done. lol
no but seriously. He ran on the republican ticket and supposedly maveric McCain who has very republican views this time around, was Bush's biggest supporter.

Obviously your definition of liberal and mine are very different. Attacking Iraq without provocation sure isn't liberal. Torturing prisoners isn't a liberal idea either, nor is spying on it's own citizens via the Patriot Act.
I know what you're going to say...a bunch of Democrats voted for these things. Well, unfortunately, many have lost their way.

These aren't conservative ideas either.
