We can't go through all of Japan's small ass islands, or all of Russia's mountains.

We just need to go through Pakistan's mountains.

HAHAHAHAHA. Yeah. Just so you all know, in any similar eventuality I WILL assassinate him. Yes, you can feel free to forward that to the secret service. I absolutely believe the ONLY reason no one has offed him yet is that we all know he's going away soon and we just have to hold on a little longer.

It's really moot, since there's no way in hell he'll actually serve past 2008. It would be like saying, "hey dude, if you ever transform into a vampire I'm going to drive a stake through your heart." It can't happen, so it's a not a threat of murder. It's a venting...a reaffirmation of the seriousness of opposition. If every person who ever said 'I'd kill you' had committed a crime I'd say around 70-80% of the population would be in prison right now.

And anyway, assassination would never happen. At the first sign of any actions to keep him in power there would be enough public outcry to stop it. Or, if somehow it happened, there would be enough popular support to stage some form of revolution...peaceful or otherwise. At that point assassination would become counter-productive. Execution after trial for treason might not be out of the question for him however. As long as he died, I really wouldn't care it came about.

That is true.

As long as you admit that by 'most americans' you mean just slightly more than half. I realize that does fit the definition, I merely point out that 'most Americans' isn't the same as 2/3 or 3/4 or whatever other amount people envision when thinking of the term 'most'.

Furthermore, while turnout was higher than usual, you have to also account for those not voting in the election. While they COULD have voted Bush if they'd voted, they might also have voted Kerry or otherwise. So, it would be more accurate to say: "Of the Americans who voted in 2004, slightly more than half favored GWB over the other options available at the time." That would be a much less slanted (and more accurate) statement than yours.

This thread is priceless.

These same Bush fanbois/gurls will in 10 short years be insisting that they NEVER voted for Bush! You look stupid and un-American today and in 10 years, even after YOU blind partisan fools realize what a big mistake you made 2X, you won't have the balls to admit in public you were wrong on so many levels. YOU TOO will see the horror this administration has brought upon this great country which you hate so much and you will only have yourselves to blame. Great job :thumbsup:

I don't venture much in here, but you are in the minority.

The majority of the US want's Bush. This is what we want. We are tired of wusses being our elected officials.

I repeat, this is what we want and our voice has spoken. Like it or not, you are in the minority and represent what is wrong with our country. We are fighting to prevent that from having any say/power in what is best for our country.

We're tired of it. I am tired of it. We need a leader, and we have one thankfully. Not since reagan have we had such a leader.

I remember the very day the planes hit. I immediately said at 9:30 on that very morning "crap, we're going to war. this is how a world war is started. crap. Thank god we have Bush in office and not a wussy."


Bush is the biggest wuss we've EVER had in office. He hid under daddy's coat when it came time to go to Viet Nam, used his name to escape DUI charges and cocaine. Used his name to get into Ivy leagues schools, and sat reading My Pet Goat when someone told him that a plane flew into the world trade center, and if my memory serves me correctly, he said QUOTE "That's one terrible pilot"
Bush is an asshole, a meglomaniacial asshole, as are the rest of his ilk. I truly hope the wheel of Karma spins so quietly they never hear it coming. May they all rot in the hell they have created.

I didn't vote for Bush in 2000 or 2004.

But I would vote for impeachment and conviction of GWB for high crimes and misdemenors in a
heartbeat.--sadly I am not in the house or senate so I will just have to urge my represenatives to
vote that way when the time comes.

Which is the thinking persons only proper way to respond to this thread.

The American people made the wrong choice twice----maybe the third time will be a charm.

We'll see. But I think that the American people are too scared of what liberals will do if they get in control. It says something that liberals are up in arms about Bush, but most Americans would still vote Republican if they had a good, good candidate.

Bush is not a conservative and he spends worse than any "liberal" we've had in office.

There is a reason it's a funny parody, humor works best when there is an element of truth behind it. Whatever else you say about Bush, he is certainly one of the most polarizing presidents ever. The people that don't like him REALLY don't like him, but the people who like him seem to have their heads jammed all the way up his ass. I admit that there are a few people who claim that their support of Bush is just because he's better than the alternative, but I think that's just cover. Push on almost any Bush supporter, and you'll find out we are apparently blessed with the greatest leader to EVER grace our undeserving country with his presence.

So an ideal Republican is better than the existing liberals? I would tend to agree, but I think the current crop of Democrats make better "ideal Republicans" than the current crop of Republicans do. Just look at the classical conservatives, libertarians. Libertarians that DON'T vote Libertarian used to vote mostly Republican...this past election, there was a pretty large movement of Libertarians towards the Democrats. This doesn't make a lot of sense on the surface, as Libertarians (despite the similar names) are about as un-liberal as you can get. And yet, if you are a fan of small government and personal freedoms, I hardly see how you could keep voting Republican. How sad is it when the Democrats are the party of limited government and civil liberties...relativly speaking of course?

Gosh, I'm already excited about how he is going to mess with my Student Loans by decreasing aid and increasing my interest rate! He is always keeping an eye out for the poor american and children by cutting funding for those services! With a person like him that only cares about the rich, how could I say no?

that just shows how dumb "the people" are. democrats (not "liberals") were in power for a long time and we actually got shyt done. whenever republicans held office, things went to shyt.

well, if a jar of peanut butter ran against him, i think you'd find it easy to say no.
