Yes, give the people free expression and they use it. Bush is the first person who has done the impossible - made me regret to see the spread of 'democracy'. With the hatred he has generated toward America, I am afraid to see free expression in the middle east.
I spent a lifetime looking forward to the spread of democracy, and that idiot blew it.
Well yes, his reception under communism would be friendlier. A police state fits his style.
It is time to go back to the 1950's theme, 'Better dead than red'

I remember the first visit of George W. Bush in Poland - he was really welcome, but that was before Iraq and the shield.
Now it's different - there is so much resentment, lots of people feel we're (Poland) just a pawn in a big game and we're not even sure if it's fair and justified to join it at all.
I've always been more Republican than Democrat in my political views but now it's changing....

I still have a sticker on my car "pro-life democrat" to show that I respect pro-life values. But... I do not respect this administration anymore. Some republicans are too much connected to big business but somehow they are also supported by so called white trash just like in this article which I recommended earlier... as for American values, yes I was also disappointed. Empires are similar worldwide. |
