Bush could have asked Americans to take an even deeper part in each of our own communities by volunteering at local food banks, schools, hospitals and community centers. Bush could have asked Americans to join organizations such as Teach For America and AmeriCorps.

Boy, that would have deterred bin Laden...

He forgot to mention how Bush could have won the love of the terrorists by building day care centers in Afghanistan. </sarcasm>

What I like about Bush is it seems he is being used to sift the men from the boys.

Reparations for the families of the suicide terrorists who attacked the WTC!!!

"In 2000, Bush campaigned upon meaningless slogans and the fact that he was a former president's son. His true vision for America did not appear until after 9-11."

OK, sentence #1 is a lie. Tax cuts are by definition not "meaningless," and Bush delivered on his first tax cut PRIOR to 9/11.

"Franklin D. Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson and Bill Clinton are just a few presidents in the last century who have been able to dream of a better America before taking office."

Hmmmm. Seems to be a trend here. Wonder why he chose these particular presidents and didn't mention, for example, Reagan or Eisenhower or Coolidge? It almost seems as if he has a subtle party preference that he is subconsciously expressing.

Well an article in my old college newpaper blamed 9/11 on fat Americans (because other places in the world people are starving and they wanted to bomb the fat people). I also noticed all the presidents he mentioned were Democrats.

Is that short for Daily Lobotomy?

Franklin D. Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson and Bill Clinton are just a few presidents in the last century who have been able to dream of a better America before taking office.

De Nile has overflowed its banks.

"Bush could have asked Americans to take an even deeper part in each of our own communities by volunteering at local food banks, schools, hospitals and community centers. Bush could have asked Americans to join organizations such as Teach For America and AmeriCorps."

Bush has been touting volunteerism since he took office, and Democrats criticized him for it, e.g., "It's not fair to ask volunteers to do what governmnet should be doing." But why do people need the president to ask them to volunteer - what's stopping people from volunteering on their own initiative?

hehe

[Southack]

"Looking at past presidents, those who entered into office with a firm vision of where they wanted America to be when they left became the most successful in achieving their agendas. Franklin D. Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson and Bill Clinton..."

More nonsense from some uneducated U of NM student.

Precisely what part of President Bill Clinton's campaign agenda did he enact?

Certainly the author of this article can't name it. Gays in the military? Don't ask, don't tell.

Nationalized healthcare? Hillarycare failed in 1993.

Tax cuts for the middle class (Clinton's 1992 campaign promise)? President Clinton **raised** taxes on the middle class as his first tax initiative in office.

Chumps like the author of this article can't name any specific **policies** on which Clinton both campaigned and then enacted (because there aren't any), even though for at least two full years President Clinton had Democratic Party majorities in both the House and Senate.

The author is just one of Lenin's useful idiots. His case master told him that Clinton is great, so he dutifully repeats that Clinton was great. It will never occur to such a simpleton to ask if Clinton's actions in office matched his agenda as outlined in his campaign speeches.

What a hangwacker. Useless idiot.

According to Senator Murray (D - Microsoft) Osauma Bin Ladin beat us to that one.

Kinda hard to scream when no one is listening to you.

Daily Loco?

[Normal4me]

Curious. Do we still have a senate? Ya know the place where people work and where the bills are signed into law. It seems that president Bush is an awfully busy guy making all of the laws and such by himself.

The forest fires are Bushs' fault along with the blackout, California recall, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Liberia, Mars, Venus...My truck needs a tune up; this has to be his fault too!

[DeFault User]

When Bush leaves office next year...

He must be a Dean supporter to be that delusional. Not "if" but "when".
