If bush gets realected I will lose faith in American politics. I mean there is probably a way he is going to cheat his way in like last time.

I support George Bush and his foreign policy. Remember, you can complain all you want about the way things are. They are not his fault. They are yours just as much as mine. We run this country (or we are supposed to). The only reason that statement may not be true is because people like you and me let our government get to this point. As far as him being the child of satan? What are you talking about? People in this forum could make the same arguments about any president. They always do. When GB is out of office and some other guy is in there. Whatever side of the political bar he is on, people will still cry and moan. You dont like it, change it. Dont wait around for someone else too. I try to let people know of things like this all the time. The most common response is: "oh lord, here he goes again", or "I dont want to think about it", or "I dont care". That is what the majority of this country thinks, and that is why things are the way they are. If everyone in this country cared maybe things would be different. Since they dont we are stuck with letting the government get bigger and bigger. As far as whats going on in iraq, and the previous occurances in afghanistan. Good for him, Im personaly tired of dropping food and resources to countries that hate me. Afghanastan? It was clear that the people of that country had a problem. I am glad someone was in office who had the testicular fortitude to do something about it. Iraq? There has been problems between them and the united states for years. Say oil this, big business that all you want. If that is the case. You are just as responsible for letting our country get to that point as anyone else. Sadam was someone who took pleasure in torture. Maybe decisions made by George Bush caused pain for some people, but I am sure he did not watch people be tortured and murdered in his living room. Someone who can do that should be called the child of satan. People will always kill each other. We are just animals with high intelligence. Your happy society with no pain or problems will never be here. Make the things around you better. And when enough people in this country care and are of the same opinion as you, make the country better.
