Well he is the Main Man in the US and of course you can buy a home here Come on

What is Bush if he's not "popular"? (Except for where he's deeply unpopular, of course!)

Bush has caused so much trouble because people love him or hate him. And when they love him, it is because they like a dude cowboy, folksy, "man-of-the-people" guy in charge. But clearly, he's not remotely a man of the people. He's so dumb it beggars belief. Whenever I see one of his press conferences, I ask myself, "How can someone so tongue-tied, so inarticulate, so stupid, be elected to any office at all, least of all that which is often touted as the most powerful in the world?"

And what makes you think the war's going well? Did you know Bush declared that the war was over, several years ago? Many thousands of lives have been lost since that precipitate ammouncement.

If the cripple bought the race, then they would be the subject of derision - and you would have a more accurate metaphor.

Getting there is all well and good. Doing the job is another thing. So far, Bush Junior has been nothing but a puppet to larger (and more evil) intellects. I don't think Bush is a bad person (although I don't share many of his values or opinions) but he simply isn't equal to the task. He has done major damage to US foreign relations.

And "The race for the White House" isn't strictly a metaphor, it's another trope which slips my mind for the moment. I think.

In my eyes, your president, not only Bush, like to impose your so-called liberty and democracy on other countries. In fact, there are your benefits in those countries,for example, resources,oil,etc. However, the price is expensive. So many soldiers's lives........
