Bush is a handful to face-off with. There are few countries today who do not view him as a loose cannon and thus, will go along with whatever he says because he is just that overbearing to deal with. The man eats generals for breakfast, and a trillion bucks to him is the equivilent of a box of cheerios, because he doesn't think about the genrations to come. His stance on Greenhouse gases proves that. The fact that several scientists pressed charges because (they claim) the Bush Administration silenced them from speaking... gives you a good idea of what happens to people who, heaven forbid, disagree with him in any way, shape or form.
This isn't ideology we're dealing with. The man does not represent the people, will not represent the people and has slandered the names and reputations of the people, in favor of his dream,
If I Could Rule the World.
To be honest here, I'd rather deal with the Mafia. At least that would be without fake pretenses.
