BTW, the Pubs talk like their man Bush is the greatest Leader of all time.
What is the definition of a Great Leader?

What are the criteria that should be used?

Does he have Wisdom?

Concepts for the Nation and How we can IMPROVE?

Where are we Humans going?

What philosophies does he have?

Why can't we have ongoing verbal exchanges like the Brits do when Blair has to respond to the House of Commons and their comments/complaints??

This would be a good way to see if Bush is a True Man, or a product of Pub WINDOW DRESSING.....

From the evidence of these past 4 1/2 years, by all acounts, Bush fails at every corner of being a GOOD LEADER for the American People.

History will not be kind to him and his supporters.

Come, we go eat manapua and pepeiau

3. The proper term
is "Regressives"... the opposite of "Progressives." Search for the thread about Regressives.

4. If you want to return to the America of Herbert Hoover...
then Bush is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

But then on second thought, out of respect for the dead perhaps I shouldn't insult Mr. Hoover like that.

8. How terribly sad it must be to have to "like" Bush
Let's say, for instance, that you were a big fan of the Osmonds. You have all of their albums, some posters of Donny and Marie, and even a big stack of Osmond trading cards from the early 1970s. Your friends, your family...well, pretty much everyone in the world would laugh at you and make fun of the Osmonds' lame songs, their clothes, and their teeth. But you could still point out that they had great harmonies, excellent musical skills, and upbeat, sunny dispositions. You could still easily justify your love.

But with George W. Bush, you got nothin' to work with. Nothin'.

9. Leadership?? From the books out there, past and present, on the
subject.... W is pathetically inadequate and out of place.

He can't sing, can't dance, forget about composing, he don't read serious books, feed him tofu and he prolly ralph like his dad, he cannot talk nor tell jokes, cannot hold a job w/o help, and worse, he cannot think. Class? Thats a laff.

But he can swagger, smirk, be cruel and mean, etc. He will lie cheat and steal.

Come, we go read what great and even not so great leaders are made from:

Tons of books on the subject.

But, now, he is sticking it to them, also. It's not as much fun now.
