Now just because I usually support Republicans it doesn't mean I am 100% Republican, I am a Registered Indepedent and voted in the Democratic Primary in NC and many of my views are socially liberal....I just don't buy into the whole political correctness bullcrap though.



KillFace, W just got shoes thrown at him, it was a secure room, nobody (aside from the security detail) had weapons. George W. Bush showed that he wasn't a whimp and he wasn't going to let one person keep him from doing his job as President. It makes W look weak if something so minor makes him flee the room, and it inspires people to fight the Americans to some extent. The hypotheticals I mention with Obama are more due to the manner in which he is covered by the press and yes there is a hell of a difference, you can't tell me otherwise.
I don't know why I bother posting in these threads anymore, but here goes.

Bush had no one to blame but himself for the way he has been treated in the press. Following Sept. 11, he was treated like a Greek God by the media; and by almost everyone else. However, almost everything he has done since then can be categorized as, as best, a series of complete cluster-fucks, and at worse, imperialistic military aggression which has resulted in the deaths of tens of thousands of people.
