TG: I totally agree with you. But he has used fear, and deceit, and vendettas, and lying and criminal activity to good measure it seems.
His popularity is at an all-time low and strill he does what HE wants rather than what is in the interest of this country.
Rhabbi: Sorry to disagree with you Rhabbi. Politics may suck, Bush certainly does, Cheney is the devil himself, so yeah. Respectfully, There are and always have been sucky people in the world, but I still have an inate faith in human beings and in Life.
Louise: You are right Louise. His administration does not care what AMericans think so how could they care what the rest of the world does. That is one of the saddest occurrences since 2000 and since 9/11.
When I traveled in Europe and Asia in the '80s and '90s I felt proud to be an AMerican. People accepted us so wonderfully. When I was in Italy in 1989 San Francisco had its horrible earhtquake. The italians, when they heard we were from San Fran, fell over themselves to tell how much that felt for us and love that city (as I still do).
But we have squandered the world's good graces. With bullying and the war and hatred we have very few places that like us anymore. It is disheartening.
As i said in another thread, I sooo want my country back. I just hope we aren't irreparably damaged.
Thanks for the comments folks. I appreciate it.
