    President Bush is losing backers because of a few reasons...mainly because he is a lame duck president. no shot of being reelected and a few want his position so the best way to "look good" is to distance yourself from him. many Democrats did the same towards the end of clinton's administration.

    This is where we have gone wrong. What we do is elect someone and say fix it! What we don't do is, listen to the people and what they have to say and then hold them accountable for the promises they made while running for this job.

    With all due respect, it is not a Presidents job to fix this country. It is the people who live here to fix it. And to do this, we better start paying attention to what these freaks who run for office are saying and doing.

    @ ranger, you are 100% correct. It's no different than when someone changes what football team they like each year by whoever is doing the best. Politicians do the same thing. if the majority doesn't like someone, then all of a sudden they don't like them. All the do is cover there own butts and then say "what the American people want".. How the hell do these guys know what we want when they don't listen to us?

    I'll watch the video hoe, i just haven't had the time to free up yet..

    Prez, i can sum it up for you....President Bush is Hitler and Mussolini evil cousin and is turning the USA into a Fascist country. according to this lady, Bush will never get out of office because he will "create" a national emergency to keep himself in office. I watched it all through and through and wasnt even kind of close to being swayed by this Michael Moore in a dress.

    yeah i heard from one of my friends about that. for lack of a better way to say this he is bring up dirt and trying to make other countries fight against eachother and cause a world war to stay in office. Not sure how much is true, but hope if that is the case it doesn't happen.

    Because we have a system called "Checks and Balances" and a document called the Constitution. They won't allow the president to stay in for more than his allotted time.

    well Crimson you have a point, only thing is that Bush believes that if a huge war happens (much like WWII) he can stay in office until the end of it. FDR was president from 1933 to 1945 when he died, thus he would have been president until the war was over but died. And thats the precedence that he would use to explain why he can stay in office.

    Actually before and up to FDR there was no restrictions on Presidential terms. He won 4 consecutive elections which just so happened to take place during WWII. (1933-1945)

    FDR was the president who urged congress to pass a 2 term office.

    Katrina is a prime example, because he could NOT usurp a Governor's powers he had to wait three days to send in troops to help the victims.
