GEORGE W. BUSH



ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS PRESIDENT:



I kept Canada's status of alway been irrelevant to the rest of the world intact while allowing it to maintain it's fortunate geographic proximity to the US, without which it would go totally Biafra.

[Galmin]

When you don't have anything intelligent to say and lack the prerequisite:

attack someones nationality!

Yeah - but we can certainly forgive #1world for the attack anyway, so don't be too hard on him! Goes with the territory.

[Galmin]

Last time I checked it was still called USA and not GWB.



GWB is your nationality, Ron? Interresting.

[RonOnGuitar]

Naw, lad. If anybody ever heard of an elected Canadian leader and if they had too much free time, they might have some fun with him/her, too. Same as they could with a Biafran leader or other unimportant figures. But it would be absurd for a hateful outsider to post long, bizarre screeds demanding either Biafians or Canadians vote so as to make the cranky outsider happy. C'est la vie.

[NumberOneWorld]

Ron, I'm not sure what you're trying to say, but let me suggest this to you... George Bush is running your country, (i assume you're american) ... what i posted was a list of his less than benevolent acts... they deserve to be known, for when americans go to the polls they should understand what kind of guy represents them to the rest of the world... i suppose if an american never leaves his country, something i'm not sure isn't what the us gov. has in mind anyway, they wouldn't see how the rest of the world sees them. America is only one country.. there are many others, many with different ways of thinking and living... your comment about canada being "irrelevent" is a clue for you... where did you hear that? from the american midia ie. gov/big biz? if you knew about canada you'd know for instance that we have more fresh water than any other country in the world... when the water wars start, who will be irrelevent to america then? our fear as canadians? someone like bush will decide to invade us for our resources... if we were arabic, we'd be sweating a little harder this year

Ron demonstrates the sort of contempt for other cultures that typifies many right-wing Americans. It is of course driven by fear and paranoia because they can feel (rather than think, of course) how fundamentally fragile and unstable their way of life is, dependent on so many things such as oil and imbalanced global trading practices. A huge giant with a glass jaw.



On another political board some other right-wing American recently responded to me by saying that people from the developing nations could "go and eat their dog-on-a-stick" as far as he was concerned. That sums it up and brings it out into the open. As other cultures become aware of this level of contempt, it will rebound on America rather badly. When the Americans helped the triumph over Nazism and saw the Soviet Union collapse they thought the world was just an inviting piece of real estate and they could do what they wanted with it. That was a big mistake, and they need to alter their foreign policy before there is more trouble.

[NRKofOver]

I think it's very important to understand that cultural bias in Americans isn't limited to just the right-wing. Unfortunately the mantra of 'the greatest country in the world' really has taken over many many Americans who really don't take the time to understand the implications of such thoughts.



Many of our middle of the road political types don't comprehend the cultural differences inherent in a place like the Middle East and that's why it's assumed that we can just export our brand of culture, government and economic system and everyone will just love it.



Ignorance is the rule for the masses in America. It's a problem and it grows every day. Ultimately, the recent years can be summed up quite simply. If I can continue to drive my SUV affordably, maintain some kind of decent standard of living, and not be afraid, any approach the government takes is quite alright. Ethics, morality, global interest, long-term national interest, and future aren't of much consequence for most Americans.

NRK, it appears that at least SOME folks seem to be getting the picture of how badly they've been had, as bushs ratings seem to be falling. I hope for the world's sake this sets an irreversable trend.



I'm pleased the Dems now have a contenda - Wes Clark. Been watching with interest the past month... I wonder what dirty tricks will start soon though, and whether the bush gang have a contingency plan for winning the 2004 elections.

Hmm, from an outside perspective I think this might be quite easy......of course they need to create another big threat! Cause Americans seem to have the unwritten rule that whenever someone says "national security" critizism is not allowed anymore and would be considered as un-american.

[debbie mannas]

some further plot to rig the elections - if not felons, who else can they exempt from voting... I wouldnt at all be surprised if some other fiasco takes place. And the majority of the US will buy yet another lie.



have you read Stupid White Men?







the whole bush family and their ilk (cheney, rove, rumsfeld and entire gang of scoundrels) should be tried as war criminals and exiled for the sake of humanity and global peace.

if not EX-felons...
