In order to keep this from becoming a screed of It-like proportions, I'll just say that the only thing he's done in six years that I appreciate is to rededicate NASA to the task of manned spaceflight.

1. Destroyed what little credibility we had with foreign policy.Tell Us Why In Your Own Words :hookline:
...The true answers of why this administration has done anything it has done are not revealed. The operative and defining quote for this administration came here (taken from wikipedia):
"The source of the term is a quotation in an October 17, 2004, New York Times Magazine article by writer Ron Suskind, quoting an unnamed aide to George W. Bush:
<DL><DD>The aide said that guys like me (article author Suskind) were "in what we call the reality-based community," which he defined as people who "believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality." ... "That's not the way the world really works anymore," he continued. "We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do."</DD></DL>I believe this strongly. We're all here assessing micro and macro events logically and based in reality. The administration, skillfully building firewalls around itself, creates its own reality, outside of history, reason, or law. They are secretive, and the secrecy of their agenda will be preserved throughout the hierarchy, at all costs.
Essentially, they are not truly our elected representative leaders. They are a rogue cocoon who has co-opted all levers of power and resources owned by the government on behalf of its people -- to further their own agenda, consolidation of power, and redistribution of public wealth and resources to their inner circle.
While I know my take may sound deluded, blasphemous and darn hyper-liberal to so many reasonable-minded people, I urge you to consider along with your own, any Bush event in that context....
Yes, in your own words. No links. No copy and paste jobs.
Hey now, I never play linky ping-pong in threads I post on. 99% of what I write is in my own words, so the use of a link by me here was a point of personal privilege.
No, off-topic, I'm afraid.
