Bush is involved in leading a team of people. And in the last two days in reaction to his speeches the Dow lost 460 points, he is leading them to use their feet. The war in on our economy and our Admin is winning and killing our economy

Would I be as forgiving if it was a Democrat in the White House? Probably not, because the most recent Democrat in the White House didn't have the character you could give the benefit of the doubt to at this stage.

Well here's what you wrote to your representative:

"This foolish position during a time of war is an obvious pander to special interest groups who live and breath in order to remove our second amendment gun owning rights."

And:

"This reckless and dangerous vote by you calls into question not only your integrity as my elected representative, but your judgement as my elected official."

Yet when Bush takes the exact same position, all you can do is be an apologist giving the benefit of the doubt. Why not give your congressman the benefit of the doubt? Why not hold Bush to the same standards?

Your position seems to call in to question your integrity.
