Bush booed at inauguration

[Danno 1,228]

Ahh yes, the Politics of destruction is alive and well.

Watch it consume even Obama too.

[jodee 30]

Not unexpected, but not cool either.

I agree,...why kick a man when he's down, I'm

sure you guys wouldn't appreciate it when your down.

Yes, he could of done a lot of things differently, but, what's done is done. It is very disrespectful....

And before you feel sorry for the poor #######, just remember how many people aren't alive on January 20, 2009 because of this guy.

I prefer to remember the 300,000,000 people who have lived free from a terror attack since 9/11.

And yet this accomplishment (if indeed it is an accomplishment and not just blind luck, given the incompetence in which our intelligence gathering operations have been prosecuted) is overshadowed by the criminal way in which the fight against extremists has been carried out, including abridgment of our civil liberties, torture, cover-ups, Guantanamo, the weakening of US power abroad, the loss of goodwill from previous allies, and god knows what we don't even know about yet. It's also made hollow by the hundreds of thousands of dead and injured Iraqi's, the over 30,000 wounded US soldiers, and the over 3,000 soldiers who died in fight a war for ego and oil.

I feel no need to boo the man or in any way humiliate him. As I said in a post a few weeks back, I just want him to quietly go away while America moves on.

. You are handsome now, I hope you don't come out looking old and wearied like all the other previous presidents!!

I'm afraid that goes with the job ..... he has already signed away his youthful looks

DANG IT

There's boo's and there's booze...

[Uncle Wally 2]

$10 bucks says Bush falls off the wagon TONIGHT and gets himself sh!thoused on a 30-rack of Coors. No, scratch that- Busch.

Actually he probably fell off the wagon about 3 years back.

Thanks Mr. FP for proving my point about the "changes" presidents physically go through. Look at Clinton (of course he had other things worrying him to death hahaha)

[Heracles 417]

And the terrorism threat is a real one but not as prolific as the powers that be would have you believe. The threat of terrorism is however, a wonderful way to continually justify the corrosion of civil liberties.......and haven't they all done a wonderful job of that.

Contrary to belief, terrorism was not a made up threat to control the masses. If the United States did nothing you guys would have been running for your lives, attack after attack. Instead, George W had people like Bin Laden running for their lives. How can anyone not see that. Do you actually believe someone like Bin Laden would have just given up if you guys had not chased him and forcred him to hide for his life? Have you ever seen any documentary to the actual lead up to 9/11. Negotiation is simply not an option for groups like Alqaeda.

Which civil liberties are they? a server now listens in on your international calls and you have extra screening at airports.

Clinton? He saved himself a decade of premature aging by turning it into the oral office. How can anyone blame him.

If those 4000 plus American service men and woman had died fighting the war on terror, you might be able to say that.

They died fighting to carry out a vendetta that GHWB didn't finish.

The entire Bush legacy is a mockery to American principles. The founding fathers crafted our constitution to create a great nation that could lead by example. They did not give our leaders the right to wage war against nations in the name of protecting the globe, or protecting a nation from itself. We are a sovereign nation with a right to protect our borders. War with Afghanistan was provoked and justifiable. War in Iraq was not.

Bush's war in nothing more than a Holy War cloaked in deceit and now washed with the blood of our good and decent men and women in uniform. It is a great shame on our nation, IMO.

You have just made a mockery of yourself!

I thought the war was about oil. Funny how the the rhetoric has changed since then. Going to Iraq at the time was justifiable. In hindsight we could not afford the war. We also learned that the intelligence they relied on was not correct. Nonetheless, the only mistake the US made was half assing the job as you should have had triple the troops from the get go.

What kills me is how people blame America for the atrocities carried out by the extremists in Iraq, on their own people. In my opinion these guys, the extremist, are the very reason why we should be there. Unfortunately we cannot afford to wage a war to rid the region of such a cancer. On one hand I agree with you. That it is not America's responsibility to be world police. It sure as hell has not won us any friends. Let Europe foot the bill for once. We should just play along and mimic the European and Canadian style of turning a blind eye. Out of sight out of mind right. But as good people the country cannot turn a blind eye. Lest we forget, the United States has been down this road twice before and was forced into two world wars.
