    One correct decision in my opinion for Bush was attacking afghanistan after 9/11, others though on major issues having a brain freeze at the moment.

    No idea what you are on about above. I hope you are not insinuating that the levies that broke, which were already part of system that was upgraded with federal money? Or the fact that the Corps of Engineers made it clear that federal cuts, which happened long before Bush was in office, wouldn't have made a difference, since the levie breaches happened to areas already updated?

    He has said a lot of things I agree with but in actions not too much that I can think of offhand,

    I agreed with invading afganistan, I agreed when he said he cut farm subsides but I don' that has gone thru.

    I musta missed that! ;)

    Let's see.....hmmmm......I can't think of any off-hand. I'm sure he's made some but I honestly can't recall anything specific.

    I didn't disagree with going into Afghanistan. That seemed like a good decision.

    Really, he says things that I agree with but then never takes action or does the exact opposite of what he said he would do. (stem cell research)

    Wow is google messed up! I know it's already been posted, but damn trying to find any info right now on New Orleans is realy pulling up some strange results. Almost like the hurricane never happened compared to about 2 weeks ago, definitely different. Makes me think this update can't be permanent!

    It's all been covered before hrbl. I've posted the same things, yet we still see the same ol "katrina was Bush's fault." I made a nice collection of boomarks on the hurricane. My experience has been that even when something is disproved, liberals will still parrot it as fact a few weeks later.

    And even when the Administration gives up on their line of BS, apologists like Gtech are still there defending it (see WMD). :rolleyes:

    Might be, not sure on the dates but wow messed up.

    #1 Result for I believe New Orleans Hurricane is a drink recipe, I can understand that.
    #2 results for new orleans broken leavis a story 'not about the hurricane,', #1 an obscure blog I've never been on and can't find new orleans on the page at all

    Almost impossible to find anything related, totally different results than I'd expect from google. I know this is already known but had to point it out, wow didn't realise it was this f'd up until doing these searches.

    Not all his fault, but some fault does rest with his decisions or do you not agree with that at all?

    Too-Shay my friend, 2-shay!

    I did come off as seeming to only think Bush supported the war. Not my intent. I do however feel that he and his administration were the driving force behind it causing a lot of Republicans who didn't want to seem out of line, and a lot of Democrats who were just lost, to follow suit.

    Then again, not everyone in Saddam's regime who supported or went along with what he did is on trial either. How bout that?

    I think that is because they are either dead or not yet been caught.

    Saddam's son would be on trial, but his current court situation in not here on earth :eek: Probably a bit hot were he is at right now and I doubt there are any virgins for him.

    Incorrect. They are no longer making a search for them. How does one find something that was looted? I stand by the WMD and no one has even come close to discrediting them.

    Bush took responsibility. Did he say the federal government failed? No, not according to the article you posted. And do you criticize the local governement for not following their evacuation plan? No. Do you question why thousands of busses sat parked? No, you made excuses by asking if they had fuel, by asking if they had drivers, etc. Do you question why the red cross was not let in? No, because it's ok for the local governement to say they didn't want them in because they didn't want to encourage people to stay at the superdome. Did you question where the national guard was and why it took the Governor to authorize them? No.

    And what about the media? Do you question their unfair and distrustful coverage? No.
