In response to Mr. Howard's question about "why do people hate Mr. Bush," I have several reasons I can cite, but foremost is the fact that he is not, I repeat, NOT a successful leader. He has taken us into a war and a country where we do not belong. If we were to get the terrorists we should have gone to Afghanistan where their leader was hiding - not Iraq. He is arrogant (unable to admit he makes mistakes), self-righteous, condemns our friends and allies abroad, behaves as a child would when things don't go his way, e.g. freedom fries, no Heinz ketchup, etc. What a joke!!! When the people of America have to line up for flu shots, and get turned away because there isn't enough to go around, and then ask Canada for help after we've said their medicine doesn't pass our inspection, and even our own medicine (Vioxx) isn't safe. Need I go on?? Please see that there is another way - a better way. We can't abide another four years of the same old Bush/Cheney system of politics and cover- ups.
