The Gadiantons are the Democrats. Its painfully obvious.
The Bush legacy I can sum up real easy. There has not been a terrorist attack on the US since 911. We know they have tried, we know they want to, but our Govt has done an amazing job preventing that. Globally the Terrorist are on the run, their leadership and organization is broken. Thier money is gone. We are winning this thing and it is thanks to Bush.
I despise a lot of things Bush has done from No Child Left behind to the Amnesty crap... but we must give respect where it is due and on the single most important issue facing our Republic, Bush has done a heck of a job.

LOL...I understand your feelings but I think you are slightly exaggerating. I think issues are a lot more complicated than that. But, again, politics was never my strong suit.

I think it is thoughtless to claim we have not had any more attacks on American soil. Al Qaeda's attacks have risen dramatically across the world due to Bush's policies that include the invasion of Iraq.
This is an excellent, interactive map of Al Qaeda terrorist attacks since 9/11. Unfortunately, it has not been updated since 2006.
Interactive Map: Al Qaeda Attacks Around the World
Human beings are human beings, wherever they are, and I do not value American lives over non-Americans'. Until AQ's slaughter stops across the world, I would not brag about it not happening on our soil.

Actually...I'm simply reguritating old slogans...It's impossible to discuss politics with folks when at any moment if the President stops quicky....they'll suffocate.
BTW...Even though I held my nose and voted for Mitt...He was surrounded by Secret Combinations...

One of the fundamental problems of political analysis deals with the almost impossibility of being neutral or unbiased one way or the other. Once we make up our mind, the other side has no chance.
Just out of curiosity, what would have been your response after 9/11 and the sudden, unprovoked death of 3000 of our citizens?

Is that the best you got to defend a group of people who openly seek to Destroy the work of Christ? People who support the murder of children? People who want to take away our free agency and enslave us? People who work to Destroy the United States?
They work for these things because they know that we can never be taken by force from another nation, only from within can we be Destroyed. They work towards their goal night and day while our Republic now sits on the brink of electing one of their own that will do more damage to our Republic than we can possibly imagin.
Bush has many faults but he has kept us safe and put the terrorist on the run. And for that our nation and the world will forver be in his debt.
