Ok, so owning someone on a message board really isn't anything to cheer about, but when that message board is private and intended only for political science students, I think it should stand for something. (E-penis increase +1)
Here's the topic:
"In class today, we talked about President Bush and the war in Iraq. We talked about the fact that President Bush has gone against the will of most Americans under the belief that the war will prove to be the right thing in the future. Regardless of whether or not you believe this, Americans are already in it together. How important is it that the people support, respect, and pray for their leaders even if they disagree with them? The media seems to do more and more "bashing" of our leaders, but is this attitude really going to help us? Obviously there will always be controversy in decisions that are made, but provided they are educated choices made with righteous intentions should we stand by our leaders for the sake of unity while respectfully disagreeing? Or should we attack and condemn them, dismissing their judgment as unsubstantiated? Does it matter?"
Everyone agreed that there is too much hatred of bush and we need to support him. Now my Uber-Pwnage +10 post
I could not agree more with you guys. There is just way too much hatred of President Bush. The media and the public in general just blow things out of proportion. Bashing on Bush hurts his feelings and, like myself, he can’t function when people are just spewing hateful words at him. Unless he has 100% support from Americans, he’s not going to be a successful president, despite the fact that he keeps saying he’ll be great in the future when history is written and he’ll be dead and unable to hear the praises we’ll give him for being right on everything. We need to be loyal to President Bush, so that way everyone will see us as strong, like Germany circa 1934. You know, It wasn’t too long ago that everyone was on his side, united, and now they’re all against him. And why?
Iraq. Ok, so his administration lied about weapons of mass destruction, outed a CIA agent because they didn’t like her husband (even though her job was to prevent people like Saddam from getting nuclear weapons) they didn’t send in enough troops,the troops that were sent were ill-equipped without body armor or armored humvees, (However Bush still supports the troops! He's cut Veterans pay and Walter Reed Hospital, the one that takes care of injured vets, is a dump. If that isn't supporting the troops, then I don't know what is.) messed up on rebuilding Iraq by valuing loyalty over competence from everyone we sent there. Who hasn’t done that? I know I have. We’re getting rid of Al Qaeda there, which only entered the country after we invaded. But we’re doing a great job battling them, even though Al Qaeda is only responsible for 5% of attacks. The rest of the attacks are being caused by Shia and Sunni, but in Bush’s defense, he wasn’t aware of these separate divisions in Islam.
And Bush isn’t going to back down on the Iraq issue. He doesn’t care if he’s unpopular because he’s sure that history will look kindly on him and look at how many presidents were hated by the people during their time and yet were loved by historians. I can’t name any off the top of my head, but I’m sure there’s plenty of them.
I also agree with him on fiscal spending. cuts taxes during a time of war and give the bill to our children who we won’t give health insurance to? Pure genius! Is our children learning? Yes. Childrens do learn. Hopefully not too quickly, otherwise they’ll figure out that we’re wrecking their future.
Above all else, Bush has made us far safer. Yes, the War in Iraq is being used by Al Qaeda as a recruitment tool, but who could’ve predicted that Muslims would be enraged by a foreign power entering their country? But he has taken steps here at home to make us safe. We’re “interrogating” terrorists, not torturing them. We can’t be torturing because America doesn’t torture and we’re America. Also, he’s listening on our phone calls, to intercept terrorist communications. True, this is not legal, but the last president to wire-tap illegally was Nixon and we all know how awesome Richard is. The Patriot Act, you know that’s a great law because it has the word ‘Patriot’ written right into it. You can’t get any more American than that. Sure it takes away some of our liberties and increases the power of government, but we can completely trust our government, the book 1984 taught us that. And I’m not even going to talk about how great FEMA is.
Of course the ‘Loony Left’ as I like to call them will keep trying to kick Bush down. They’re say things like
“All men having power ought to be mistrusted”
“We are right to take alarm at the first experiment upon our liberties.”
“If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy.”
“It is a universal truth that the loss of liberty at home is to be charged to the provisions against danger, real or pretended, from abroad.”
“No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.”
But what they don’t say is that all these quotes come from 1 person, James Madison, and we all know that he doesn’t Support our Troops. (whatever that means) Ok, so Ben Franklin said
"Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both"
but that’s so pre-9/11 thinking, people. We can’t be held down by 18th century ideologies and the constitution. They couldn’t have predicted the situation we would be in. In fact, even 20th century ideology is archaic. We need to repeal the 22nd amendment and elect Bush every 4 years. Unless we stand by him continuously the terrorists will see us as weak and we can’t have that. Who else is going to be patriotic enough to support President Bush and our troops until we eliminate terror?
