Bush did the wrong thing he endangered him self over a SS guard, he broke security protocols, I’m sure he sent his security team into conniptions, he thought from the top of his head and in doing so, believe it or not he put his life on the line. He went from secure situation to an unknown and unprotected situation and that is the bottom line.

Insults like that are just a waste of time my friend. Educated adults see right thru a fallacy such as yours (attacking the person instead of the argument).
Bush displayed abscence of common sense and protocol in his little display of "manliness."
He should have left the more experienced other Secret Service agents to deal with the situation.

It wasnt a display of manliness. President is always accompanied by Secret Service agents no matter where he goes. Secret Service dropped the ball on this one and President had to step in. You dont turn the President of the United States loose without protection in Chile no matter what the circumstances or the event.

Can you elaborate on this using factual data/links and not those indie sites that brilliantly display that anyone can take statistics and manipulate them to their advantage?

"Mr. Speaker, we are here now in chapter 11.. Members of Congress are official trustees presiding over the greatest reorganization of any Bankrupt entity in world history, the U.S. Government. We are setting forth hopefully, a blueprint for our future. There are some who say it is a coroner�s report that will lead to our demise.
It is an established fact that the United States Federal Government has been dissolved by the Emergency Banking Act, March 9, 1933, 48 Stat. 1, Public Law 89-719; declared by President Roosevelt, being bankrupt and insolvent. H.J.R. 192, 73rd Congress m session June 5, 1933 - Joint Resolution To Suspend The Gold Standard and Abrogate The Gold Clause dissolved the Sovereign Authority of the United States and the official capacities of all United States Governmental Offices, Officers, and Departments and is further evidence that the United States Federal Government exists today in name only..."

The US is a bankrupt corporation and de facto government.
Less than week after being expelled from the U.S. House of Representatives, former Congressman James Traficant of Ohio was sentenced today to eight years in federal prison for his April 11 conviction on charges of bribery, corruption and tax evasion.

Um, you're quoting a speech from an ex-congressman who was expelled from the house for ethics violations and is in jail for another six years.
Oh, the one person who voted against his expulsion in the bi-partisan 420-1 vote: The very honorable Gary Condit who had a mistress who mysteriously turned up dead in a Washington DC park.
