Oooh, perhaps like Caligula's illness that turned him into a raving lunatic. The precious oxygen Bush's brain lost in those few seconds was just enough to transform him from an ordinary idiot into a world-threatening, economy-busting wholesale liar idiot! I sense a book deal coming...

You gripe how he says it and laugh, then are horrified at him when it happens.

On this topic, I don't understand why this is a 'lie'. Unkept promise, perhaps, but I don't think Herbert Walker Bush intended to raise taxes when he made the statement. Only when he got into office and was privy to everything did he decide that he just couldn't keep his promise, even if it would cost him.

I don't think unkept promises and lies are the same thing.

Only misleading in that "decades" or "centuries" may have been more accurate. Oh, and that it may never be won. Or that his entire strategy in said war may be completely misguided. Other than that, just call him Honest George.

i viewed bushas no different than most other presidents when he took office

and I am fine on him going back on his word

I am not fine with him distorting facts (and making some up) in what he allows us to know what is going on with the nation

I want him out of office just like I wanted Gore/Clinton ouit of office in 2000

I am not sure if I will vote Socialist/Green or Democrat (probably will depend on the democrat and what the poles say for my state of residence)

Sprayber...what you fail to realise:

1. Whenever we're not on Apolyton...well...guess what we're doing then
2. He's our frigging President, if we hate him we oughta voice it.
3. Exaggeration is a great way to drive across a point.

No it isn't. It makes people who might otherwise listen tune you out. I'm not a fan of his by far, but when you get two and three threads that basically say the same thing, it gets old. It's turned into a contest about who can make the most threads against bush. Enough is enough for christs sake.

Credit where credit is due: that's not a lie. Whatever else is going on in Afgahanisatn and Iraq, no one could reasonably call it "nation building."
