GWB has been sending billions to the world for AIDS as long as he has been in the Whitehouse. Last time I heard of an aid package to South Africa of 15 billion. He has spent more on AIDS than any other president, you just have of course not hear about it much, kinda' like the surge in Iraq ![]() conspiracy... |

No, what's news is that the NY Times is finally recognizing it. He's now asking for $30 billion, but, of course, the Democrats are complaining that that's not enough. -- John H it isn't, compared to his killing debt. |

I stated facts, based on "tangible assets", namely cash... What is your problem, double standard? Now, just for comparison, IIRC, Billary gave less than 8 billion during it's administration. Is there some kind of math I am not aware of, cause if not, then nothing I said was remotely amiss. |

There's little funnier in politics than watching the diminishing dregs of Bush supporters standing up for their man.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - On the positive side, loyalty is an excellent personal quality. While it may be accurate that a majority of Americans are less-than- happy with GWB, it's posible to admire those who continue to defend his policies and leadership. The fact that a person may hold a different opinion on a controversial subject doesn't make that person either bad or stupid. Folks still passionately defending the current administration should be commended for their loyalty to a professed cause- many people would have defected from the ranks a long time ago. Some have. GWB may not be the very best president ever, but among those who continue to support him despite everything he has and has not done in seven years are some darn fine Americans. Who knows? 25-30 years from now history may prove the Bush Doctrine and his domestic policies to be extremely well founded. Or not. |

Who knows? 25-30 years from now history may prove the Bush Doctrine and his domestic policies to be extremely well founded. Or not. -------------------------------- I admit that I had much higher expectations of him. I've been disappointed and was wrong. But, I don't think GWB set out with an objective of being "the 43rd Best President" or even the 1st. I think he was handed a very difficult challenge, unlike any in recent US history, got some bad advice and information and set upon a course that was ill-planned and conceived. I also don't think he's the brightest bulb in the drawer, but that doesn't make him a bad person. Some people can multi-plex, thinking through several scenarios and all their detailed steps simultaneously. People with that ability can logically arrive at a conclusion or decision that is almost always spot on. He obviously does not have that ability, so he relies on others to map it out. But it still doesn't make him a bad person. I also have a tough time with all the conspiracy theories of a personal agenda by his critics. If they are true, then the critics would have to acknowledge that he's a lot smarter than they give him credit for because most of the time he gets his way. I also don't buy into the blame for 9/11 simply because it happened on "his watch". I sincerely think he's doing what *he* thinks is best. It may not be, and I know I'll get blasted with the "lives lost" count. The critics weren't so vocal however back at early stages of the war and objectives were being easily accomplished. I also lost some respect for a few people including Colon Powell. There obviously was a power struggle for influence and Powell gave up. I wish he had stayed or had been forced to resign to emphasis his position. Maybe he was ... I don't know. It's interesting to speculate on what the past 7 years would have been like had 9/11 not occurred. Anyway, we try again next November. I agree with your previous comment, let the best person for the job win. Eisboch |
