Tough call--is it stupidity or incredible cojones? Something has to account for someone getting input from so many sources and then taking the total opposite tack.

When he was elected, I was relieved that he surrounded himself with so many knowledgeable and experienced advisors. But even then I knew he was not a rocket scientist. To say that he has incredible cojones almost gives him a little too much credit - I still say he's an idiot. And I don't think I will ever again in clear conscience vote for someone just because I feel they are the lesser of two evils.
 
I am embarrassed to say that for my sanity, I have had to shield myself from too much news. :(
 
I am just waiting to see what his next distraction to help us forget about this "War Against Terrorism." Why don't we instead focus on getting gov't more out of our pockets? The IRS needs to be revamped and diminished. With a growing elderly population and Soc. Security being drained, we need to be addressing some health care savings programs. The Constitution provides for a defense of this country, not an offense against a different form of gov't. I know the middle east is a bit screwed up from many things, the number one thing being fights over religion. Has been and will continue to be. Saddam was a bad man in my opinion, but are we supposed to play big brother to everyone on the planet, at the expense of our own citizens? We have plenty of problems here that need some major attention. I say that our gov't is screwed up and needs an overhaul on many levels. We need leaders who care more for the citizens of this country than they care for the friends making big bucks, and paying back evil promises which helped put the leaders in the powerful positions. They are ruining this country and its people, and we all are so tired that we give up and they continue to win. I don't blame you guys for being tired. It will be a life-long fight, and we may never see the benefit, but our future generations need some help. Don't give up -- Give a D@mn! Shout it out and let it be known to all, and do it often. ;-)
 
poll from CNN.com since Mr. Bush's speech tonight. what will it take for this guy to get a clue?? i'm sure the numbers will be even more telling tomorrow.

What is your overall reaction to President Bush's revised Iraq plan?

Positive 23% 4309 votes

Negative 77% 14743 votes
Total: 19052 votes

I don't know if his plan is good or bad. What I DO know is that I haven't seen anything better from the democrats. All we get from that bunch is whining and finger-pointing.
 
This "War on Terror" is stripping away our Constitutional rights. In our Country today, forget about trying to change our Gov't -- You will be declared a terrorist and can be thrown in prison indefinitely thanks to the actions of Congress after Sept 11. That is step one. Remove our rights to free speech. Bush sidestepped Congress and the Judiciary and now all over your searches on Google.com can be monitored by the Gov't. Oh, let's not forget your email. Better be careful what you say... (free speech is banned).

SJ, makes me think of the Gerald Ford quote that released after his death: "I just don't think we should go hellfire damnation around the globe freeing people, unless it is directly related to our own national security," Ford told Woodward.

Don't play that argument on a group that did not manufacture b.s. to start an entirely avoidable war. I've screwed up, so you solve this mess with a better idea? That sounds like a 6 year old. GW should keep the buck in his own stinky back pocket on this mult-billion dollar lynching of Saddam and not try to pass it on to others.
