You must know that when BeeHO became President he was
briefed by all the alphabet agencies about what was really going on in
the world and he probably soiled his pants and wondered what in the hell
he had gotten himself into.

Oh dear, the man has only been in office two years and already you have
a case of Obama Derangement Syndrome that qualifies for clinical study.

I would love to see a bunch of Leftists go to the Middle East and
offer hugs to the Islamic Fundamentalist loonies and
experience getting their heads cut off and their genitals stuffed into
their surprised open mouths. Reality really sucks doesn't it? :-)

You wouldn't know reality if it sank its teeth into your leg. Here's a
wild concept you could maybe get a friend or family member to explain to
you: it is entirely possible to have a negative view of the Bush
Presidency without being a "Leftist". As the late, great Wm. F. Buckley,
Jr. pointed out, whatever he is, G.W. Bush isn't a conservative. I
assume Buckley was thinking that conservatives believe in fiscal
responsibility by government (Bush doubled the federal debt), believe in
the Constitutional protection of individual rights (Bush decided he
didn't need warrants to tap our phones and open our mail), and believe
in the avoidance of pointless foreign military adventures (even Cheney
finally got around to admitting there never were any WMDs, I'm not sure
if Bush knows yet).

But if it quickens your creaky old pulse to dismiss anyone who would
dare to criticize a Republican President as a "Leftist," okay, you go
with that. But keep in mind that Bill Clinton (a man I roundly
criticized in and out of office) isn't President anymore either, and I
bet that doesn't stop you from spitting when you hear his name
(figuratively speaking). So try to grasp the concept that someone
pointing out the errors of past Presidents maybe doesn't tell you
everything you need to know about that person's politics. I think Jimmy
Carter was a lousy President in many respects, does that make me a
right-winger?

I hate to burst your bubble Bucky but I'm not a Republican, Republicans
disgust me but Democrats are special, they horrify me. :-)

Congress makes the laws, The President, any President of any party only
signs or refuses to sign the bills into law. BeeHO can champion a bill
and perhaps coerce senators and congressmen to vote the way his party
wants but in the end it's the members of Congress who are to blame for
any cluster coitus. Perhaps that will bite your leg? You freaking
Commie! :-)
