I'm curious what you believe the major issues are?

National security, immigration, social security, education, economy...and I don't expect the American government to have a perfect solution because there usually isn't going to be one that satsifies the entire population.

He staight out said as much in one of his interviews about Saddam. He said that he was going after Saddam cause he tried to kill his daddy. That was either before or after he was told by God himself to go to war, or however he put it. Hurry up November, I will be one of the first people in line, lame duck season here I come.

GW scares the living heck out of me. Not only is he blindly following in his daddy's fatal footsteps, but everything he's done has been based on lies, and the lies of those around him and force fed down our throats over and over and over again. He is the scariest person I can think of to be the leader of the free world and his singlemindedness of purpose has gotten the entire world into nothing but trouble and bloodshed.

wow, you guys really need to do more research.

im sure none of the Iraqi people want democracy, thats why their voter turnout was more than twice ours. dont listen to propoganda without doing yur own research, you silly gooses!

I think he's a little hard-headed at times. I don't fully support the war in Iraq because theres just no plausible way terrorism can be elliminated. I don't hate him or anything though. He's obviously a really smart guy... he is the president afterall. You don't just drive up to the white house and ask for it, ya know?

Where is this interview? Sounds like a liberal hoax to me.

BTW, below is part of an interview Bush had in 2003 with Fox News' Brit Hume.

HUME: How do you hold the situation in Iraq in juxtaposition to your faith?

BUSH: Well, I -- first of all, I would never justify -- I would never use God to promote foreign policy decisions. I recognize that in the eyes of an almighty, I am a lowly sinner, and I ask for strength and wisdom and I pray for calmness when the seas are storming, and I pray for others. I pray for -- I pray a lot for families who have lost a life. I went to Walter Reed, was struck by the braveness -- bravery of our soldiers, and kind of got a quiet moment afterwards and prayed for them and their families.

OK I pulled up a few sites about what I said and why I said them. I wasn't pulling these ideas off the top of my head cause I don't like the guy. It is in print and not just once and not by some slime magazine like the National Inquirer but by multiple papers and sources both inside and outside the US. This guy is a loose cannon, bottom line.

BBC - Press Office - George Bush on Elusive Peace

washingtonpost.com: Road Map in the Back Seat?

This interview has been flip flopped back and forth and dismissed by Bush and his press secretary on many occasions but after watch Bush backtrack on several issues I personally believe that the man said it and meant it, he seems like that kind of person to me.

Maybe he did, maybe he didn’t, but what if: Did Bush Say God Told Him To Go To War?

About his daddy:

CNN.com - Bush calls Saddam 'the guy who tried to kill my dad' - Sep. 27, 2002

Saddam tried to kill my dad, says Bush - smh.com.au

If you have any sites that can prove without a doubt that what here is untrue show me.

I don't care what they want in all reality not when it hurts our own people.Children are going to grow up not knowing there parent because they are fighting someones elses problem and that to me is the biggest issue.There is no reason we are over there fighting when we got bucketloads of problems in our own country that needs attention.Our main concern SHOULD be OUR country and when we got our stuff straight then we can go and help whoever needs it but not until then.We need to stop being "BIG BROTHER" to everyone and concentrate on ourselves fully.
