I'm not always behind him 100% but it always gets me mad when people blame bush for the entire war on terror/Iraq, like EVERYTHING that's bad in the world is bush's fault. It's not like he looks at a map and is plotting what country to topple over next, he has countless advisor's who are constantly evaluating terror threats and who is and who isn't a risk to our country, it's not one man (Bush) making the decisions for this great nation. It's countless experts in many different fields of knowledge who brief/advise the president.
Another thing people have to remember is they (we the American people) aren't allowed access to all the documents the president and other high ranking officials have access to, so you have to remember we don't see the whole picture. I'm sure we would all cringe if we knew what exactly went on in this dangerous world we live in, all the threats we face that 99.9% of the people don't even know about. And you know what? I DON'T want to know what goes on. That would keep me up at night knowing all the gory details of who/what entity wants to destroy my country or any free democratic society. So it kinda makes me a little hot under the collar when some liberal blow hard comes on the TV acting like they have all the answers and why this president is stupid and how all evil in the world can be traced to this president and how they think they have some "miracle cure" to solve our problems....Bull Crap, once you have all the facts you can make a honest decision but when you don't have all the facts, it's merely a speculation.
And as far as 9-11 is concerned, I wouldn't have wanted anybody else to be in charge. Besides another thing people forget is this president has been faced with more challenges than any other president in recent history, he came into office with the economy in the toilet (thanks Bill Clinton) and then to be attacked on our own soil by Islamic Extremists, to honest that's alot to have happen in a administration.
But if people want accountability for what the United States Government does then hold it to our elected officials, Senators, Congressmen and women, anybody who has been elected and has the power to make decisions that affect the course of our nation. Besides people like Hillary Clinton or John Kerry who staunchly supported going into Iraq in the beginning they too have access to documents and reports the general public don't have access too. That disturbs me that politicians now a days are so easily swayed by what's popular among people. If you make a decision then stick to it, don't be wishy washy.
I admire a person who sticks to their principals through good times and bad. Has this president been perfect? hell no, no human is...in fact that part of being human is screwing up. But I know I will prolly incur the wrath of someone for supporting this president lol
