Bush failed us on national defense. first allowing 9-11 on his watch after repeated warnings, next doing nothing to stop the other planes after the first WTC attack, next after a smart bi-partisan move in Afghanistan, pulling out too soon without finishing off our enemies and capturing Osama, then starting a big expensive war based on fabrications. That war has drained our ability to do anything else militarily and weakened us greatly. Now we cannot even afford to do anything else militarily. Bush blew his wad in Iraq which had nothing to do with 9-11. He is also personally an AWOL draft-dodger lipar, and Cheney dodged the draft too. They are chickenhawks with their own agenda. It is not in America's best interests. Everything now is healing wounds and mending fences after the damage those two have done.

Liberals refuse to defend freedom Liberals defend freedom more than Republicans. There was no threat in Iraq, for Bush to attack. Allow me to educate you. 1. Bush Sr. made Saddam an enemy to the USA 2. Bush Jr. made more enemies to the USA by attacking Iraq. This is defending freedom? Allow me to elaborate on Bush Sr. and Saddam. When Saddam had a disagreement with Kuwait, Bush Sr. sent Albright to Saddam, to tell him that the USA wouldn't intervene with any action Saddam took, towards Kuwait. Saddam bought it, hook, line and sinker, then attacked Kuwait. The Bush, lead the charge to intervene. Before that, Saddam was an ally. Bush Sr. administration set Saddam up and made an enemy out of him. You have a "Bush" to thank for the problems in Iraq. Now Bush Jr lead the American people to think Saddam was on the brink of attack the USA. He wasn't. Bush could not have been further from the truth. This is good for America? Creating enemies where none existed before? Fighting a war that cost 119 billion for no reason except to help rich business buddies and oil buddies? This is not only unpatriotic, its extremely anti-American. Both Bush Sr. and Bush Jr. are clearly war-mongers. They created the situation to have a war, where no war would have happened.
