I had to watch the Bush speech tonight. I knew I would cringe, but you have to watch what everyone is saying.
It is amazing how little content we get on policies. Anyone can come out and say "I WILL GET MORE JOBS IN MY NEXT TERM". What about this term? What have you done in your four years? Nothing good.
It is painful to hear him talk about items such as education and claim good things. "No Child Left Behind" is a fantastic slogan, but it has been a nightmare. It is a mandated program with NO funding. It is crippling schools. Just testing kids isn't going to do jack.
What was most disgusting was hearing people cheer after Bush talked about detaining and killing people. These large speeches look and sound like Hitlers. Really scary stuff.
The sad part is that some people eat this stuff up. I hope there is enough time for real debates, and for us to get into real policy issues. When it gets to the meat, the president has no legs to stand out.
Let's get him out. I can't take four more years. I will have to move to Canada aye?
