Al, the "failures" of the Bush administration are vastly exceeded by your desire to blame him for everything just because he is a conservative.

I think I have told you before...I don't like his policies and not his personal beliefs, which are hard to assign to ideology anyway. I mean, some of his policies, one could argue, are not conservative at all, fiscal drunkeness is an example, and others are radical, foreign policies which have alienated the peoples of the world against the US, environmental policies, at al... As far as his religious beliefs, a topic about which you seem to be sensitive, to the extent that they are kept separate from the workings of the government, they are his freedoms to exercise.

But like I said before, for your sake I hope Kerry wins. Then you and Kerry will be tasting the same bitter medicine he's been prescribing as the "cure" for what's wrong with America.

We "liberals" have suffered this blame game in spades during 8 years of Clinton administration. During this time, the well being of the nation was subjugated to worst form of right wing vindictiveness against a sitting president who arguably delivered prosperity, relative peace and budget surpluses.

Al

If you mean attacking Iraq is part of Bush's "bitter medicine" formula, then the current problems are of his own doing. His supporters do not seem to want to acknowledge that fact but instead they play the blame game with everyone else.

Attacking Iraq was poorly done from almost every avenue and the tragedy in Spain and the subsequent fallout underlines that poor performance. Instead of hoping that Kerry picks up this rotten mess, you should be asking yourself why you supported such an inept president. And you might wonder about a president who is arrogant enough to think he can do whatever he wants in spite of the objections of many of his people and still expect that it will end well.
