The President being called “chimpy” on this forum is unacceptable to me in any circumstance. The fact that other posters supported the statement was appalling. I don’t care what the issue is you disagree with the President about, this type of name calling is DU-like and becoming more and more prevalent on FR

[Antique Gal]

He really helped Scotter Liddy,the border guards,while his Justice Dept. let Sandy Berger skate,what was that all about?

[MuttTheHoople]

Agreed. I strongly disagree with President Bush on the illegal alien issue, but he still has my respect for his decisive handling of the Islamofascists in the wake of 9/11. If algore would’ve been President, he’d have been curled up in a corner in the fetal position for 3 weeks, muttering, “Daddy never said there’d be days like this..daddy never said there’d be days like this...”

[mamelukesabre]

You are correct. I must admit though, that this name calling of the president doesn’t terribly upset me. I can’t quite energize myself to defend him anymore. But you are correct.

President Bush has had to take that kind of low cr@p since day one. Even 9/11 didn’t stop the hardcore BDS sufferers.
So, now we have stood together and opposed a man that we have all staunchly supported. Who said that would be easy?
I will never forget the courage of GWB through these years of no good will from the rest of the world. I think there is good will for our President here, but for his amnesty plan...NO WAY! The disrespect is what needs to stop.

Am I wrong or did not the president have some some strong comments about the people who were against amnesty, along with mesures Lott , Gramn and McCain. Wasn’t the racist tag thrown around? Seems like they were more than willing to throw us under the bus, but that’s just me.

I agree. I sent a lot of private replies to some of the most offensive ones trying to explain it was the Kennedy/McCain bill. Then Harry Reid changed it to the President’s bill. Bush just wanted an immigration bill (I did not agree with it either and did all the calls and messages to everyone I could think of to defeat the bill). The return offensive comments were even more offensive than the ones they posted. I was surprised to see that a lot of them were long time members of FR. Someone had a tag line quoting Thomas Jefferson “if you train the mind and do not teach morals you have created a menus to society”

[farlander]

I by no means condone blatant disrespect of the President - but darn do I feel let down for all the support I’ve given over the years.

[ClancyJ]

I agree.

Hmmmm... I studied this thread and searched for any use of the term “chimpy” and I found none. In fact, I looked back at the entire thread and noticed that NO ONE AT ALL bashed the President until YOU TWO BROUGHT IT UP AND KEPT IT GOING.

What the heck is up with that nonsense?
