Bush came into the presidency and into what I would consider the WORST presidency to come into.

Now, I have to ask, what would have Gore, or even Kerry done if presented? Im willing to bet that NO ONE would have any better rating as a president at this point in their presidency had it been anyone else. God knows we would be so far into a pile of crap had the other two actually won. Think about it. I have to admit, Im tired of soldiers dying over what turned out to be nothing, but God knows SOMETHING had to be done about Iraq, whether it was Bush or someone else. It doesnt help that Iraq KNEW we were coming months in advance and had AMPLE time to get rid of anything that could incriminate them, but we wont go there. Too much speculation. It makes me sick to see people that ride around with their anti-bush bumper stickers when IMO, what the hell else could he do. We live in a world where EVERYONE thinks someone owes them something. We have illegal immigrants wanting full citizenship, who are also draining our economy and natural disasters that are (in my opinion) doing the inevitable. But yet, it all seems to be Bush's fault, like he could actually DO something. Our Nation has become too liberal to get ANYTHING done, for God sakes, we cant even have "Christmas" parties without someone filing a discrimination lawsuit. Well, Im rambling about pointless stuff now, so Im done, but I just have to ask the anti-bush people, who the hell COULD have done anything with the hand of cards Bush has been dealt. I would love to see it come out any better...

I'm completely for the war in Afghanistan, but the attacks on the twin towers had nothing to do with Iraq. Iraq and Sadaam have never been linked to Osama, and it seems now that the search for Osama has stopped. I fully supported the war in Afghanistan, however short it was. I still don't see any legitimate justification for the war in Iraq.
As for the immigration issue, I'm all for the new bill or issue or whatever it is that is going through. I don't think it's fair at all that illegal immigrants can live in the U.S. and reap its benefits, and they don't have to learn English or work nearly as hard to
EARN their citizenship such as the legal immigrants. I have nothing against foreigners at all, I just don't respect any immigrant that doesn't go through the proper steps to become a citizen.
