No "analysis" is warranted, since many of us often do find fault with various Bush policies, actions, and attitudes. We just don't air them here.

Curious, what do you believe is responsible for the attitude of those who seem to think that public adulation is some how more beneficial than frank, public discussion of policies and actions?

Besides, injecting one's personal and/or opposing views into a discussion prevents objective analysis, ...

Very interesting, do you actually believe that presenting opposing viewpoints during political discussion or debate precludes any objective analysis of the product of that debate?

Those of us who enjoy discussing the admirable qualities of our president and his wife every day or so do not believe public adulation is "somehow more beneficial"...we just do our "frank, public discussions of policies and actions" on OTHER THREADS!!! This is the one thread where we just free ourselves to LIKE the two of them for the kind of people they are trying to be. Flawed, yet still in so many ways worthy of praise and honor.

Not necessarily, if you are participating in an actual "discussion or debate" thread...There are appropriate threads to present opposing viewpoints and to engage in lively discussion with these very same people. To continue to disrupt this thread and others like it for "debate and discussion of policies and actions" is to be "off topic"...and it demonstrates sloppy netiquette.
