Politicians You Respect but disagree with
NobodyButMe:
yeah i got mad respect for clinto too. i think he did a lot to clean up the environment, and i think he was a good president. they say that the economy was waning as he was on his way out, but i think that that is cyclical. i can't say that theres really anything that sticks out in my mind as a 'bad decision.'
i also respect bush to some degree. although 90% of the things he's done, i don't agree with, but he's been thrown some pretty difficult curveballs. all this shit that people say about him 'engineering 9/11' i think is pure bullshit. it took years and years for that shit to be planned, and i don't think bush had the capabilities (nor the heartlessness) to pull off something like that.
what i can't stand though, is those politicians that make their name off ripping somebody else. like howard dean. that dude talked mad shit about bush and his war and then as soon as saddam was captured, he had nothing left to say. kerry too, about the unemployment rate, what the fuck is he gonna say now with 2 straight months of increased employment.
i think al sharpton is a respectable politician, but only because he's black. he's had some pretty ridiculous ideas in the past, but he represents some minority.
custamante cruz worked his ass off to become govenor of california and lost to arnold, which i think sucks but at least arnold is working for free.
everyone out here in new york bitches about mayor bloomberg, but everyone bitched about rudy giulliani until 9/11. i think bloomberg is doing a fine job at running this city, although he has raised taxes for the senior citizens ridiculously high.
rudy giulliani was a piece of shit with race relations between blacks and whites, but he did a lot against organized crime and it'd be almost impossible to NOT respect him for the way he went to ground zero during 9/11. that was insane the way he rounded up everyone that was trying to get him away from there and went to the scene of chaos.

Marx and Lenin. These guys were for the true communism, the communism for the poeple. I may disagree with their politics but they were good men and honest about their polotics. Stalin on the other had was a horrible man and tyrant who ran Russia under the guise of communism.

No wait, you're right. I'm sorry. George W. Bush is a far better president. Lead us into meaningless wars into countries we can't control, go torture the civilians there, lose our own soldiers (which don't matter to me at all, but to some people they do), spend our tax money, deplete the surplus, cause a huge loss of jobs, etc etc. Yea, you're right.
