not keeping us safe on 9/11 is alot different than your original post of saying bush is responsible for 9/11. see the confusion?
dont try to make me look like some dipshit.
come on now, relax...I'm not trying to do anything...I'll keep in mind you need everything explained in detail...and oh, yeah, I hate bin laden...you were the one who used the word "responsible", therefore I used it to, to illustrate a point...
their's no need to be a negative nancy and call people names...

I apologize.
but again you can stop being so condescending. I dont need things explained to me in detail. I explained to you what I found confusing.
and please no need for references to the war in Iraq. I dont feel Iraq has much to do with the war of terror, although at one point it did. once we killed zarkawi (not sure how to spell it) el queda in iraq seemed to be crippled. now its time to help how we can and get out.
What....we can't talk about Iraq with the war on terror? But our government would all like us to believe that it is one and the same war.
If only Bush would admit that he manipulated the intelligence and what was reported to the American people at a very vulnerable time in our country to support his personal agenda that he had from day one of his administration to go to war with Iraq. If only he would admit that it originally had nothing to do with the war on terror and that in hindsight he should have just focused on the war on terror.
But to me this shows that he has never had the best interest of this country at heart.
Dow Jones Industrial Average reached an all time high yesterday and continued to make new records today. Economy is very strong right now and has been for several years.
does that have anything to do with Bush?
If the economy was in a major recession right now, who would you blame that on?
Our National debt under GW Bush is: $8,552,317,819,258.17
...
I think the logic involved here is paramount to the logic, "Mexico was never attacked by Muslim Fundamentalist... therefore, America should be more like Mexico".
Both statements are invalid.
So the only thing Bush supporters can come up with is that there has been no terrorist attacks in the US since 9/11 as the only example of what good he has done?

no the economy is doing damn good too. I appreiate you quoting everthing I had to say today.
again, thankfully our country has not ben attacked since 9/11. if it was, who would you blame? certainly not el queda. probably bush. and both would deserve blame.
no the economy is doing damn good too. I appreiate you quoting everthing I had to say today.
can you say "left wing bais"
I try to call it like I see it.
The economy is doing well but how is the average citizen fairing? Less funding for social programs such as continuing education, tons of layoffs and outsourcing, wages going down while the cost of living continues to climb, and a filthier environment with deregulations galore, to spend their free time in.

I love how everytime a liberal as myself (a liberal btw who supports pro-choice, the death penalty, and our right to bear arms) questions the motives of our government it is given a blanket statement of "Bush bashing" or "left wing bias." Save that crap for someone else.

And it shouldn't even be that big of an issue...of all the things to fear everyday, the chances of dying from a terrorist attack are extremely remote before and after 9/11. Just use logic people! With this kind of irrational stressing, I'm surprised many don't shit their pants when they hop into the car everyday.

you seem like you might be a smart guy, let try saying something intelligent. how does questioning the motives of our government have anything to do with this conversation?
the thread asked what good things has bush done. I gave answers to what I think is good. i.e. no attacks since 9/11 and a good economy.
And it shouldn't even be that big of an issue...of all the things to fear everyday, the chances of dying from a terrorist attack are extremely remote before and after 9/11. Just use logic people! With this kind of irrational stressing, I'm surprised many don't shit their pants when they hop into the car everyday.
Unfortunately, it's the only one I could come up with.
Wow. Was he feverish that day?? Were Rovey and Cheney in their underground lairs and not consulted about this? That's very much out of character for this administration. There's got to be an agenda here. I'll start digging...
nope sorry not for me. I live and work in downtown chicago. I work less then 1 block from the sears tower. I live blocks from a federal building. the 95 story trump building is going up next to me. I take the subway or some for of public transportation daily. I travel, by plane, domestic and internationally at least once a month. the sears tower, more then once, has been in plans by el queda to be attacked.
security is an issue. for you on the farm? no your safe, dont worry

Every 4 hours there is an attack on US soldiers fighting a war in a country that previously, until we got there, had NOTHING to do with the war on terror.
The fact that we (as of yet) have not been re-attacked on US soil since 9/11, I believe is just dumb luck. Our Airports are no safer than they were 6 years ago. Our major water supplies are unprotected. Our electrical grids are unprotected. Our nuclear plants are unprotected. The Bush administration hasn't taken hardly any of the recommendations from the 9/11 Commission report seriously or implemented them at all.
You keep sleeping under your false sense of security that GW will come riding up on his high Texas horse to save your ass. Ask the folks in New Orleans how fast GW and FEMA will come to your rescue.

Because you tried to dismiss things I said as, and I quote, ""left wing bais""
thanks to bush's strong policy to not allow el queda to have a base of operations and training camps. yes your right
Too bad he didn’t do anything about it when he first took office (when the CIA and FBI were finally on the same page, agreeing that Al-Qaeda WAS responsible for the USS Cole attacks). Too bad they didn’t take anything president Clinton left them to continue his fight against Osama Bin Laden seriously. Too bad he demoted Richard Clark. Too bad he didn't take much about terrorist seriously until after 9/11. And too bad after 9/11 all that the president saw was a way to go to Iraq and a way to take advantage of a vulnerable, fearful country to gain support so he could execute his own personal agenda that he had since day one of being in office.

those brave solider you speak of are there by choice. they expect to be attacked. not sure what you point was.
dumb luck? how about the countless attacks that have been stopped? plans un-covered? how do you have any idea about the safety of our water supply? or electical grid? or nuclear plants?
airports arent safer? seem safer too me. all check bags are scanned and most of us know who travel what little you are allowed to bring on an airplane.
in chicago for example, we have the country largest water treatment plant. get that? largest in the country. it sits on the lake next to navy pier. both are right on the lakefront next to downtown chicago. security it extremely tight there. no cars can get near it and security guards are always visible.
I said "left wing bais" because you fail to acknowledge both of the facts I presented simply becuae you are liberal.
fact one. we have not been attacked since 9/11. some have tried and failed.
fact 2. our economy is very strong. did you see the dow today? probably not, it soared past an ALL time high.

I am sorry if you feel we are "me bashing" you...but we are all in this conversation together.
I just happen to disagree with the sentiment of most of your statements on this subject.

The odds are probably higher now, actually. Bad decisions including violent occupations usually adds more fire to the flames.
The odds were just as remote before Bush and 9/11.
