Pres. Bush's presdency was foretold in the Bible

[MC Just]

thats real mature.

[Aloysius]

I bet [b]President[/b] Bush knows how to spell [b]presidency[/b] better than the fellow calling him a "child".

[OverheadNite]

I don't lile president Bush. I also didn't like President Clinton. We should give this government back to God the Father Almighty like it should be.

[jiyoung]

I don't think Bush is perfect, but he's a heck of a lot better than the alternatives. And while "lesser evil" isn't a good policy, it's all we've got here.

just like a modernist english speaker...

Dan was using an archaic spelling of the word, which was probably taught to him in school or by his parents. The Oxford English Dictionary lists "potatoe" as a variant spelling of the word. But you can blame him for his educational background just as irrationally as you can blame Bush for his accent, I suppose.

"presdency", however, is not an acceptable spelling in any century or educational background.

I make a point of it to always spell "potatoe" with the e, because otherwise that o at the end should be pronounced softly by the rules of english pronunciation. The e should be placed there, and I will always place it there.

He's not a mainstream Republican, just like his father. Reagen's statement "the government that governs best, governs least" is the ideal of the old stock Republician who has some libertine sensibilities, who wants no massive welfare state, nor a country whose main costs is a gigantic military budget. Bush senior and junior are both not of that type of Republican. Reagen preached it, but didn't put it into action (he made the deficiet sore as high as the sky). The very evident domestic policy of Bush, "no child left behind", the Patriot act, etc are all federal government hands on type of governing. Democrats do that, Republicans ought to lead the country, not increase the federal government's already broad role in society.

what about Justices Roberts and Alito?

[MichaelFilo]

Since they aren't policy makers it's almost a non-issue. However, the only thing I know about them is their moral stances, which do reflect that of the Republican party (I'd say sadly, since the consensus is to allow abortion in certain cases which is the special belief of our president, whilst some of his more conservative cronies including Chaney and Rummsfield reject it completly). However, I have seen neither judge in any shape or form advocate many of the measures taken on the domestic front; but they certainly aren't unconstitutional.

God bless,
Mikey

[ardillacid]

You have blinders on if you think judges aren't policy makers.

[MichaelFilo]

Hahahaha, its more of a problem of having the constitution on. They aren't supposed to be. The fact that some do, and that they are always liberal reforms (I mention the Warren court, because hell, we know what I mean), I don't expect it from conservative judges.

God bless,
Mikey

You know something, you're absolutely right. I say we should have allowed Saddam to keep his reign of terror over his country. Gas the hell out of those Kurds is what I say! Hell, we should have just left Adolf Hilter alone as well.
Daniel, you're stupid.
[/quote]I really can't understand why so many orthodox American Catholics defend Bush's war in Iraq, sometimes even making the bewildering assertion that it's linked to 9/11. Pope JP II was also vehemently against the war. Would you retort in a similarly scathing fashion to his position?
