Bush loves his role in history
« on: January 26, 2005, 06:07:48 PM »
I swear every time I read a speech by him its full of junk about how big a part he plays in history. maybe he doesnt get it that this is about more than what historians will write about him. Yes he does play a big role but I for one would appreciate a little humility on his part. He seems to not only think he is the big fish but says it. That is not a sign of leadership it is a sign of a big ego.


"I firmly planted the flag of liberty for all to see that the United States of America hears their concerns and believes in their aspirations. " Bush speech Today

I don't remember him planting a flag...I do remember him sneaking into Iraq and then back out.

I think GWB will be remembered just like Nixon and Clinton; not because of the good he made but because his royal fu__ups.

I'm afraid history will not love Bush.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

was his arrest in Rhode Island for DWI a felony? I heard it was and have seen reports it was but have not seen it from any reputable sources.

That is so debatable that to make such an assertion is simply absurd.
