bush was a puppet, plain and simple. He showed NO real leadership. Just look at the 9/11 “My Pet Goat” incident; he sat there waiting to be told what to do rather than jumping into the fray and demanding to know exactly what was happening and taking charge.

Look at Katrina; instead of mobilizing all available resources in the area and in the surrounding states, he did NOTHING. He could have been a hero and at least SEEMED presidential (and turned his whole image around right then and there) by taking charge and saying (for example) “Damn the cost, I want every governor to send all they have to the gulf area!” Yet, he did NOTHING. Apparently he JUST DIDN’T have it in him.

It’s obvious he just doesn’t have the “right stuff” and never did. For his whole “presidency” he was on “standby” waiting for orders from Dick and Karl that sometimes didn’t come. Fuc*ing pathetic.

1st thing 1st, sorry 4 my bad english
i am Indonesian and a moslem
i agree with bush policy about terrorism
but i absolutely doesnt agree with iraq war
the problem is in afghanistan, india, pakistan
saddam already began to loose his power b4 the war, so what’s the point to go to iraq
look what happen in taj mahal hotel in india
US army concentrate in iraq, so al-qaeda regain its power after the fall of taliban in pakistan and afghan
I am a moslem
and Islam is not terrorist
i believe in every religion have some fanatic believers
jihad, martyrdom, etc already loose its meaning coz this fanatic translate it into violence act

Why – you ask? Because he’s a liar Justin – he’s been a liar virtually his entire presidency. He’s a disgrace to the office, a disgrace to the military, a disgrace to his family, and quite frankly a disgrace to every American citizen. It’s very big of him to “belly up” and admit that it “may” have been a mistake to indirectly order the deaths of over 4200 American soldiers for what amounts to no reason at all. I still have never heard an honest answer to the question “why are we in Irag?”. We’ve spent upwards of $1 Trillion dollars and no one seems to know where a great deal of that money has gone. It sickens me frankly that this man will actually walk away from the White House “scott free” – after all of his crimes (real or imagined)- no one pays except the average American. Wars are almost always fought so that the rich and powerful can hang onto their money and/or their power – but the people that pay the price and fight the wars are never rich or powerful – maybe there’s a lesson there we should all take to heart. Next time – Just say no…….

It doesn’t matter what Bush admits. The people already know the truth. Bush’s presidency will be picked apart to pieces during the next coming decades, just like the Vietnam war was.

You can’t spin the truth when you no longer have a mouthpiece. Bush’s mouthpieces have been thoroughly discredited along with Bush. Now’s the time to analyze America’s addiction to A-holes and why it keeps happening.

At least we get good reading material for the next decade.
