Family help: Why do people hate Bush? - Help.com

I disagree with most of the decisions that Bush has made - the war, vetoing the child health care bill, allowing drilling in on protected Alaskan reserves, not reacting as soon as he heard about the 9/11 attacks, his stance on torture, the expansion of executive privilege, etc. But what causes me to personally dislike the man so much (ok, I admit it - I hate him), is the way that he never seems to take the American people seriously. He doesn’t logically defend his actions - he just infers that people who disagree with him aren’t patriotic, or that we’re “letting the terrorists win.” He never admits to making any mistakes and his tone during speeches seems condescending and smug. I can respect someone I disagree with - but not if I feel like I’m being talked down to. I wish he would at least explain his choices with hard facts, based on actual numbers and reports, rather than making vague generalizations.

I know that there are a lot of people who support Bush. If anyone has an example of him admitting a mistake or using actual data to support a position, please post it here. I’d like to know if I’m wrong.

Bush is pushing an onslaught of fights that we have no jurisdiction over. It is simply not our fight. Bush needs to understand that his job is to help the U.S. and keep our finances, security, and all of our issues on the top of his list. he doesnt do that. He is all about international affairs. He is very supportive of the military, good. I am in the military and i would give up his slight raises to our income knowing that its going into bettering our country cause thats what i signed up to protect, the U.S., and we wouldnt be here if we hadnt fought our own fight. There is good reason to disagree with Bush on the Iraqi war because it was an illegal act and my brothers have spilled blood on that foreign land for no gain other than money that will not be returned to our children but to industries. I did not sign up for that.

because hes incompetent, he only ran for office cause he wanted to create a legacy for himself (he said so to donald rumsfeld. he has no idea what the hell hes doing. hs just rumsfeld and cheneys little hand puppet. hes not a leader. hes a terrible public speaker. as anon22 said, hes rarely capable of defending his actions. “He doesn’t logically defend his actions - he just infers that people who disagree with him aren’t patriotic, or that we’re “letting the terrorists win.” ” thats completely 100% true. and i agree with guitar in my heart, iraq is not our business. it doesnt matter if theyre a threat to democracy, theyre not a threat to us, so why is he weakening america? 911 had nothing to do with iraq, that was afganistan. iraq is three different cultures. it is dysfunctioanl but nature, and therefore, it needed a dictator to hold it together. what good has this war done?
people say he tries his best, well thats not a good reason to support him. if a 5 year old was put into office and tried his best, we would still be screwed.

22c i agree with you 100%. I am not going to like Bush just because as a soldier it is considered unpatriotic and disrespectful.

bush supporters are supporters of bare minimum help to this nation and money in their pockets from their influence on his decisions. he isnt trying hard at all. his presidency is a circus and a mockery of the position as leader of this great nation. him and cheney are the ringling brothers of modern politicians. they just want to put on a show and get you to come to their shows. but in the end they are still a couple of clowns.

Because he claims to be a Christian, and that his favorite philosopher is Jesus Christ, yet he ignores Christs commandments to be Peacemakers, and warnings that “those who live by the sword will die by the sword”.

Bush is a base minded man with a thin veneer of self-righteous and self-deceptive “Christianity” on top of him.

True Christians and true Godly people refuse to kill their fellow humans being, and strive to promote peace, love and unity in the world.

Bush is a “Christian” the way Al Capone and Hitler were “Christians”… in their minds, but not in reality.

people are so over-critical. I agree, bush isnt a good leader, hes what i would call a trained monkey. But theres not alot to do when someone attacks and kills so many of your own citizens. And people are saying that we “Have no right to be in iraq anymore, lets pull out”. How much more selfish would it be to leave them in a state of near total anarchy with mo help, then to stay there and try to help them? BTW, Al Capone and Hitler? kinda random. true statement, but random slections

they figured it out before without us. they will do it again. just because we jumped in there doesnt mean we have to stay there and mess around some more. we are just causing more aggresion that wasnt as bad as when we got involved. I agree that although there were under a dictator look at the way they are divided. they didnt get a dictator overnight. they were never going to work as a democracy and the default for them was a dictatorship. its none of our business. We cant go around playing hero after Bush had us jump in looking like complete assholes. if people want something they will fight for it. it is not our affair. It is more and more selfish the longer we stay in there to try to “patch it up” and look like samaritans. This is why i believe as a melting pot nation we should not be one nation under God anymore. It is just not the case anymore. We get percieved as pushy christians over there and you know what? We havent proven them wrong with this infiltration.

You’re not making any sense.

Politics is Poly-Tricks, plain and simple.

It is the machinations of men for earthly power, orchestrated by Satan and demons, rebellious angels who fell to Earth and scheme to mislead and destroy mankind, to express their hatred for YHVH, the true Sovereign King of all Kings, Ruler of the Universe in Peace, Truth, Harmony, Justice and Love.

Bush is the leader of nothing, and serves only at the whim of the Creator, the true King of Kings, and Lord of all Lords, who sees all, of which nothing escapes His All Seeing Eye.

George Bush kills the children of God.

He will never escape punishment for these sins.

That was for Baconator.

At any rate… stop idolizing men and looking to men for guidance. Look to God for guidance, and all will be revealed to, and provided for, you.

ya i gotcha we hit send reply like back to back lol no biggie

lol yup. :)

bush is trying to finish what his daddy started… he could careless about our people… ooohhhhhh he makes me soooo mad… there is no reason for this… he claimed there were weapons of mass destruction.. in order to get our troops over seas.. in which it turned out to be a lie… then after we have lost soooo many good, brave people.. he is still trying to keep them there… if he wants to fight a war.. then HE HIMSELF NEEDS TO SUIT UP.. AND GO TO WAR HIMSELF… he needs to bring our people home.. and stop this insanity!!!!!!

American history is a controversial issue and has been since the begining.

I dislike his arrogance, his lack of basic knowlege in the English language, and most importantly the fact he ignored many UN countries advising him to not declare war amongst many other facets of his seemingly corrupt reign. I am most angry that we are in a time of heightened intellect, but chose to battle in haste.

My only saving grace from going ape-s*** is the fact that Bush is not a new unpopular to the world. There are leaders that have been questionable throughout time. And as little as we think about it, there are and always have been societies that dislike us. There is still a ‘terrorist’ threat, as there always has been. But instead of archaic ways to deal with other nations, we should be proactive in peaceful disagreement.

My question is why is Andrew Jackson on the twenty dollar bill? He was tyrannical against the Cherokee nation. He made them move to ‘uninhabitable’ lands in the “Great American Desert” despite the fact that many Georgians and Floridans stated the Cherokee nation were “civilized peoples with a common constitution”.

Well with all said, he really isn’t a very bright guy and he isn’t pulling wool over anyone’s eyes these days. I don’t hate him personally, I hate the way he and his cronies run this country. Sadly hIs lack of intelligence has left its mark on this country. Its just gotten beyond ridiculous.

I so agree!

Maybe it’s tricky for some people to comprehend killing killers to achieve peace, but I won’t take people against the war on terror seriously until they can come up with a better idea.

The War On Terror IS Terror.

Iraq had nothing to do with 9-11.

America betrayed Iraq and Saddam Hussein after the Iraq-Iran War in which the U.S. gave Hussein and Iraq billions of dollars of military equipment (including chemical weapons) to use to attack Iran. All because Iran deposed the US installed Shah and his secret police SAVAK, which was set up by the CIA, and which was committing brutal atrocities against the Iranian people.

The CIA was using the Embassy as a base from which to conduct those terror and spying operations against the Iranian people, which why the Iranian Revolutionary Guard evicted the CIA and other US spies and torturers out of the country.

Learn your history brother. That is why you see pictures of Donald Rumsfeld shaking hands with Saddam Hussein from decades ago… because Hussein used to be one of our biggest tools in the Middle East, used to attack Iran… until he stopped taking orders, and then they wanted him dead.

Never mind this “War on Terror” nonsense… the CIA are the foremost perpetrators of Terror all over the globe, and it has made us, the American people, enemies from a million directions. The solution is not to bomb and kill the world, but to install a regime change here at home.

9/11 WAS AN INSIDE JOB

kk know i am sorry if i appear to be antsy but if the govt has the power i think they do its the power to fool us into thinking that any choice is the right one. is he being popularized on purpose. the nominees are all very different and come from different points. maybe its more like which one of our tools will be elected. maybe someone should dive more into the candidates and see what links them to the govt. some really shady stuff has happened in the past. seriously the govt shouldnt be so week to allow bush and his people get all this under the table money that they are putting our billions of dollars to work for, are they? seems some people have connection and upper hand on the use of our funds.

sprrk12.. While I agree with the fact that Sadaam was a horrible dictator, and facist extremist, I still am left wondering about where we stand with terrorism now. The original instigators of the attacks on us are unfound. Though there are some that have been captured, why aren’t the American people updated on the status of Al-Qaeda? Also I noticed that the Homeland Security uped the National Threat Advisory level recently to “Elevated”. My question is on what grounds? Why do we have an elevated level? I think because of the holiday season, but still there are many facets of information that aren’t readily available. I would expect that a group of leaders under scruitiny by it’s people would be more proactive in informing it’s people. Especially when that group of leaders is in a party that is in a threating situation. My last real question with our current leaders is the concerning the Patriot Act. I agree with it’s intention and think it is a possibly good thing to enforce for national security reasons and intelligence collection. BUT my conundrum is “How much power do we the people want our hired officials to have?” That is a fundamental concept that our own forefathers died to protect. Power of the people.. limitation of the Government. In my own right I like the idea of easier access to information from potentially threatining sources, but am I willing to allow my neighbor’s violation of privacy? Am I going to allow my own violation of privacy?

iraq had nothing to do with iraq first of all. second of all bush is a moron. third of all your all safe from these terrorists my brothers in arms fight and die fighting everyday. no soldier could of stopped 9/11 and this war on iraq isnt gonna stop that kind of attack from happening again. thats not our lane. although we do live better than many countries, at what cost? we are at debt and we dont even use our own money really. we work and the govt takes. that is fine with me as long as that money gets put back into our country. too much time spent on foreign affairs and too little on our own affairs. who is making money from iraq. it sure isnt me or you sprrrk. unless you have some side deals in texas… billions of dollars for another countries freedom. ONE country. and its not ours i tell you. if it was then there would be better protocols back in the states. we are arguing about drivers licenses for illegal immigrants while the lady around the corner cant get up because she wasnt able to pay for her medication that eases her condition. or that child that will die early in his life because his family doesnt have the funds to give him the top notch medical attention he needs. there are thousands of ppl like this. if people wanted it bad enough they could stand up and get accomplished whatever they want. any country can do that. but its the peoples decision whether they care to do so or not. we did it why cant they. we hate bush because nothing he does is for the benifit of the ppl unless it profits someone and in turn himself. we are drilling in alaska now can u believe it. after years of saying we would leave it alone. boy i think some of bush’s associates had their blood replaced with oil because thats what they are living, breathing, dropping in the toilet. oh no my bad thats our hard earned money down the toilet my bad. they bag up their **** and feed it to us.
