You know, that's pretty ignorant of you to single out Bush as a corrupt politician when the last administration was guilty of much worse. Y'all lost the election, live with it. Someone had to lose, and I for one am happy that Gore's retarded ass didn't make it into the White House. Y'all seem to want to bad mouth my country, and the President. However, as this country was founded on the fact that we have certain rights given to us by our Creator, I have no problem with that; you have a right to speak your mind. However, if it's that bad here, why don't you leave? I'm obviously not talking to those who are in other countries, but to those who do live here; Do you think that the world would be a better place without the United States?

As for the war in Iraq, okay so what if it's fought over oil? Wars have been fought for economic reasons going back through the centuries. As much as I may or may not like it, without oil, nothing moves. And if you're going to accuse the Bush administration of "selling out" over oil, let's make sure that you also include the Clinton administration in that accusation. Al Gore sold the strategic oil reserves to Occidental Petroleum Company when he was vice president. So what you say? Al Gore's father was a board member of Occidental Petroleum, and Al Gore was heavily invested in it so that he directly profited from the sale. Oh wait, he's a democrat, he gets a pass.

Wake up, all of the politicians are corrupt. If you think that Bush is that much worse than anyone else, you're asleep at the switch. I don't necessarily agree with what has been done in Iraq either, but I'm don't think it's right to label the president a "f*cktard" either, especially in a forum that is open to the entire world. As an American, I think we should keep our dissent at home, I think that this is the greatest nation on earth, and if you don't think so, then tell me; Where do you think the world would be if the U.S. didn't exist when Hitler, or Lenin, or Stalin, or (insert your favorite dictator here) decided that certain people didn't have a right to exist?

I thought about keeping quiet on this, but I for one, am sick and tired of people not having any respect for my country, and my President. And that's it, like it or not, he is the President. If you can't respect the man, I can understand that, but we all should try to respect the office.

Semper fi.
