okay, ill give you that the majority of america agrees with him, but the majority by just a little, and the little is the Texas rednecks that are too stupid to tell Massachusetts from Conneticut. The fact that he won is just a demonstration of the publics stupidity, not his brilliance.

I am an Australian, writing from Australia.
I saw the movie about George Bush and his involvement in the starting of the war in Iraq.
NO DOCUMENTARY about a US politician has been shown in Australian Movie Theatres,
NO US PRESIDENT has ever been responsible for behaviour that would attract an audience to view a documentray about him, even if it were in Australia, of all places.

this things gonna go on for years, and years, and years...

Sometimes, you have to use special ways to handle very hard situations.
He did try to have a talk with party concerned there,but without any progress.

Therefore, he did in this way,which ,to some extend, helped people there.

I understand some guys said he is crazy,and sure,he is !Iraqi matter is a one thing,the other is that he treats other less developing countries very hard,no only in military ,but also in economy!Maybe he thinks he is right,but at least,i dont think so.He just cares himself!!!

He is/was not so loved. But his opponent was seen as worse.

This issue is something that gets me a little heated. I was a special ops soldier for 6 years �97~�03. I was all for the destruction of Al-Quida as they have killed many of our soldiers over the years in different attacks. But when it comes to the invasion of Iraq, Bush was wrong. He knew that Saddam had no WMD, he knew that they had no connection to Al-Quida. Bush has killed more of our soldiers than the bad guys have. I do not like seeing my buddies dying for no reason. Personally, I can not wait for this administration to be terminated.

nice to see your opinion

Ground-breaking news:

Yesterday (Wednesday, the 14th of December, 2005) George Bush accepted responsibility for his 'wrong' invasion of Iraq. He admitted that he launched an attack and started a war that was based on false intelligence.

He also says the election in Iraq qill vindicate his mistake.

Last night, I sat front of the TV broadcasting the news about Mr.Bush addressing something like that he admited the war of Iraq now was sticking in the mud, more and more US soilder facing the bomb attack by the Iraqi, the feel so sorry about that, but he didn't think he launch a wrong war because due to the freedom he gave to the Iraqi. and later, the TV switched to another scene. A reporter was visiting US people, and most of the people visited thought that Bush had launched a wrong war without getting enough evidents to prove that the president Sadam had made nuclear wappon and Bio-Chemical wappon which would be sent to attack USA.
And for me, I of cause think that Bush had launched a non-justical war from which USA can get much advantage and profits.

wow, now, at last he's admitting what everyone knows Rolling Eyes ... but in what way can the election in iraq be vindicating his mistake?!? don't understand this logic at all!

i'm also looking forward to the end of this bush-government in the us.. because with what you can read in newspapers about iran and the iranian minister president i really begin worrying that bush would let himself be provoked, so that he takes similar actions to these in iraq.. let's hope not!

thanks for all your opinions.

I think a lot of us agree.

I also think (hope? Pray?) America will make a better choice next time.

STAGGERING IN THE MUD


3 years ago , some guys and a lady from GUAM ,who pretended to be " American" as she used to say " we" when talking about Bush and Americans, were advocating the war on Iraq and never be tired to offend Arabs and Muslims as terrorists and undercivilized people. Today, and after the truth of thier fake leader dawned to them , I would like to tell something that I said BEFORE : Bush and his administration which mostly includes exteremists from the exterme right , waged the war out of hatered and revange after what happened in 9/11. when you send people to kill because some of their folks were killed by some terrorists you will find them ready and motivated . Bush and his administration stuffed Americans with fake reasons in non-stop campaigns , helped by some Zionists in the Media realm to take revange. He invaded Iraq, isolated Arafat till his death, grudged Syria , put economic pressures on poor Arabic countries calling the governments to implement
" American democracy" . Unfortunately for him, Democracy brought Hamas and the "Brothers" to power in both Palistine and Egypt. When Hamas held the parliamentary elections, Mr Bush cut American aids to
Palistinians and pressurized Europe to do the same. This is what they call " let them rot" policy . Have I told that this is simply hatered and revange. thank God we are normal.

Before 9/11,the states didn't attack Afghanistan and Iraq,after 9/11,the United States attack Afghanistan and freed its people from the extreme Islam rigime,what the states did is absolutely right,more than 3000 innocent people were killed by Islam extreme terrorists ,if Russia or China were attacked by someone,would they want to find the terrorists and attack the country which havened the terrorists?So attacking Taliban regime is 100 percent right!


I don't know if invading Iraq is 100 % right,why?after invading Iraq,the coalition forces didn't find the MWD which was the reason why the coalition invaded the Iraq .But ousting Sadam rigime is absolutely right,perhaps not 100 %,at leat 80%.Why 80% ?because there are many
dictatorial regimes in our world,for example,North Koren ,Cuba ,ete,if just these coutries were dictatorial refimes,the states would attack them,then the World War Three would happen.

So Bush did a good thing to our world,because without Sadam today,the world are much better.Perhaps many Americans didn't understand how people are suffering in dictatorial regimes,they just don't want to go to war,don't want to see the falling of America soliders .In order to achieve the universal value of democracy and freedom,the sacrifice of the soliders won't be in vain .Thanks Americans for your sacrifice!
