He still hasn't finish helping most of the katrina victims, he could do more than what he's done so far.... he's put our country in such economic debt it's going to take years to recover, he's sent troops to kill innocent lives and he has a speaking problem...

I think i know why hes so dumb

Imaginary
Enough with the Bush threads already.

Darth Jello
why i hate bush:

1.) Powerful and Continuing Nationalism
Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.

2.) Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights
Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of "need." The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.

3.) Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause
The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial, ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.

4.) Supremacy of the Military
Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.

5.) Rampant Sexism
The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Opposition to abortion is high, as is homophobia and anti-gay legislation and national policy.

6.) Controlled Mass Media
Sometimes the media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common.

7.) Obsession with National Security
Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses.

8.) Religion and Government are Intertwined
Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government's policies or actions.

9.) Corporate Power is Protected
The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite.

10.) Labor Power is Suppressed
Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed.

11.) Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts
Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate open hostility to higher education, and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free expression in the arts is openly attacked, and governments often refuse to fund the arts.

12.) Obsession with Crime and Punishment
Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even forego civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations

13.) Rampant Cronyism and Corruption
Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources and even treasures to be appropriated or even outright stolen by government leaders.

14. Fraudulent Elections
Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by smear campaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate or control elections.

Sound familiar?

Hmm, interesting thread. As a Republican (fiscally/economically) and a Democrat (socially) speaking, I'd have to consider his term a mild success. His first 4 years were definitely better than the current ones, that's for sure, regardless of which party you're for.

Not because you're parents are republican does it mean they're ideals are right.

Bush is not an adequate for presidency of the most important country in the world. Never has been, never will be.

manny321
He can't say the world syllable properly.
He said syl-la-ble.

He gives very stupid and terrible answers to questions concerning important issues and thinks we are all blind sheep and follow him.

The US has suffered domestically and overseas. The country went from billions in surplus to hundreds of billions in debt.

Also the war is so stupid. Why didn't Bush go in with the help of most of the world. Then there would not have been so many problems. Look at Afghanistan. It still has violence but is much better then Iraq. WHY? Because the world is involved there.

Most of America dislikes him. His polls are 37% agree and 60% disagree.
(and like 75% "stupid cowboy" up here in Canada,

bush..went to war....Intentionally....the original reason into going there was because of weapons of mass destruction...Then all of a sudden it changes to liberating the iraqi's and terrorist...Saddam had nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks so why did we go after saddam and not bin laden...because ladden and bush and buddies...... also bush talks like a retard..he has horrible charisma....to answer your question by the way bartmanx....the better question would be what good has he done for this country as compared to what harm... I tell you it would be a smaller list of what he's done good than bad....

First off, read Darth Jello's post.

Second, the whole statement,"if you could stop whining about the war" seems to indicate that you are dismissing the fact that your president led your country into an unjust war against a country that was not involved with his war on terrorism, had wmd's or had anything to do with 9/11. Isn't the fact that that he did that enough?

Actually yesterday I saw Bush on tv talking about how his mission to rid Iraq of terrorists is not yet complete.

At that moment I thought, "what the f*ck! when did this become about fighting terrorists?"

First it was about wmd's, then it was about terrorism (which people called him on and then he decided that the war was more about "freeing the iraqi people"and instilling a democracy, then it was about ridding the country of insurgents, and now it is about terrorism again?

How can americans sit there and listen to him spew that sh*t?

Actually, as has been explained more times than I can count, and as you would know if you knew ANYTHING, local and state governments in Louisiana gave the federal government permission to come in before Katrina even hit. No excuses are acceptable there. American citizens suffering at home should come before a war that we have no business fighting....and of course the fact that 35% of Louisiana's National Guard was overseas (when the point of the NG is to stay on US soil) fighting his little war did not help matters any.

I saw a really great docu by a great author and journalist (whos name I can't remember...but he was on Bill Maher) where he went to all these different countries in Europe and interviewed different age groups, regarding their opinion on the war. And without fail, every demographic said that they hated what America had become under GW. AND, without fail, they all said that they held the people of this country responsible for allowing his actions. Take into consideration that we, here in the states, have the POWER to oust the president...we simply don't know we can. This man should be removed from office...it's simply the apathy of the American people that allow this crap to continue. And for that fact alone, many Europeans (and Arabs) hate us for it.

I personally don't care for Bush (the president, not the term for vagina, which I love greatly). I think he's doing a very poor job as president and has made a good number of mistakes.

That said, I think he's demonized way to much. I don't think he's nearly as bad as some people make him out to be.

Alpha Centauri
I don't think he's necessarily as demonically evil, purely because he's seriously too stupid to be evil.

That said I do think he's doing an incredibly bad job and it's pretty scary that people chose a very unintelligent man to be the president of America.

i blame people either not voting or turning a blind eye to widespread voter fraud. Bush's base consists of the greedy upper crust and people who voted for him solely "cause he'll get save sum babies and get dem der, moslems, queers, n' jews off a mah propertah."

I think you meant to put hotdog stand before country in your humourous quip there, it'd make more sense.

Also, I quite clearly do not think he has the brains to run a country successfully. The fact that he is "running" (for arguments sake) it, is scary then isn't it?

i don't think it's fair to call neocons "conservative since their economic policies are in no way conservative and their political policies are somewhere between Straussian and Fascistic. True conservatives would be and are appalled by Bush.

Ignorance stems from ignoring. Which means to not pay attention to, more or less.

So if you're ignorant, you know it's there and just don't give a shit. Where as stupidity is not knowing.

i'm an independent. bush is not the greatest president. he's made decisions that weren't the best ones and some that were but the point is that he did them and we can't change it. but he has not decieved anybody. he has layed it on the line. "this is what i believe and you can disagree with me if that's what you believe."

you can disagree with him, but calling him a fascist, a nazi, a dumb ass, deciever, liar or anything like that is over the line i believe.

AC, I think it's funny that you think I'm worried about my 'credibility' on KMC. If I truly cared, I would do the following:

1. Drop Christianity and either become an atheist, agnostic, or Muslim. If I were to choose to follow Islam, I would also say that I was from the Middle East. Then I would laugh my ass off as people characterized Christians as gay-hating rednecks and then went off on others who dared to mention Islamic Fundamentalists.

2. Become pro-choice. Except in the case of criminals. Then I'd be pro-life. And I'd support organizations like NAMBLA because I would...

3. Be a moral relativist. Sweet.

4. Hate Bush with a passion undying and refer to any of his supporters as rednecks and hicks.

5. Constantly ***** about the U.S. military and our being in Iraq. And by 'constantly', I mean 'every other thread'. Oh, and I forgot to add Bush to the topics of bitchery, though that should probably go under number four.

6. Feign compassion for all sorts of crap that doesn't matter.

7. Do all sorts of other crap that I don't feel like listing.

I concede my point. I thought one meaning of ignorance was unaware or uninformed, also a lack of knowledge.

Oh wait. Can you give me a minute? Thanks.

*Does a lot of scientific experiments*

Well, it would appear that ignorance does also mean what I just said, which is what I slammed Bush for. I said the difference between ignorance and stupidity is the same difference as knowing something and ignoring it, or just not knowing something because you are dumb. Now whether you want to call Bush ignorant or stupid (I believe he is both based on, well, everything he's done or said) the fact of the matter is, neither of those qualities are good to have in a president.

My original point was that the guy is stupid. He clearly has problems with pronounciation, grammar, forming a sentence, location of countries...

It would appear that deriding Bush has become a popular past-time. I think that's wonderful, but its a shame that it is a year or so too late...

The list of his errors is too lengthy to mention in great detail, but let's take a glance at a list I can think of:

- Misuse of 'intelligence' as a means to legitmize a war.
- Parading around like the war was over, when more soldiers have died since the 'end'.
- Failure to produce any kind of long and short-term stratergy for rebuilding.
- Dereliction of duty by the highest members of his government - Rumsfeld, Cheney, Rove...
- Rejection of International Law - Geneva convention, UN-approval for war...
- Inability - or unwilling - to act in the face of domestic tragedy - the Katrina debacle.
- Proclaiming freedom for all, whilst restricting it for many - homeland security measures.

Oh, I'm bored...Someone else add some more...

Proves my point with Bush supporters. They don't care what they argue for, even if it's anti-Bush. As long as it's their point of view that prevails.

If I called Bush a stupid idiot and you believed he was more leaning to the side of being an ignorant *******, you'd probably argue that.

There's a difference between belligerently sticking to a (dis?)belief proved to be false and belligerently sticking to a truth that remains so. One of those actions is known as 'lying', the other is known as having 'integrity'. It seems plain to see which label Bush and his followers deserve...(HINT: It's spelt the same as the prefered posture when using a bed).

Anyone who observes Bush's deeds should realise that by now...Unless, of course, you have sh!t for brains. Wait a second...

And if you read my post you'll see what context I said it in. The purpose of a debate is to make your P.o.V prevail. The point I made was that Bush supporters will do this even if it's a matter of "What kind of shit is Bush, runny or solid?"

just because you disagree with his moral or political views, doesn't mean he is an idiot. if u are talking about book smarts, he's got alot of that

I'm not calling him an idiot because I disagree with his political views or moral views. There are plenty of smart people with stupid views.

The fact that he is actually a stupid man as proven by his very basic actions and lack of intelligence, is why I say it.

Regardless, Bush's speech defects and geographical misconceptions, as alluded to countless times within this thread, have proven to me time and time again that our president is not fit for his job.

"I did not have sexual relations with that woman."

"We found the weapons of mass destruction. We found biological laboratories. You remember when Colin Powell stood up in front of the world, and he said, Iraq has got laboratories, mobile labs to build biological weapons. They're illegal. They're against the United Nations resolutions, and we've so far discovered two. And we'll find more weapons as time goes on. But for those who say we haven't found the banned manufacturing devices or banned weapons, they're wrong, we found them." (May 29, 2003)

One led to a tricky period for a guy's marriage, the other led to a war that is yet to end, but has cost the lives of hundreds of thousands of people.

You're not conceding your point but you're not defending it either, besides a very flimsy (and untrue) little retort. Also, considering the fact that he is quite obviously stupid, that leaves two conclusions to be drawn doesn't it?

That you are either denying his stupidity for the sake of it (because to anyone with eyes, ears and reasonably brain power it's easy to see Bush is an idiot), or you genuinely do not believe the man his stupid.

Both courses of action are acts of idiocy. The former more so.
