That's - an interesting "analysis" of Social Security. Privatized SS would not completely remove the system from Fed Regulations. Also - the fact that SOCIAL SECURITY is running out is a problem. It may not be petering out at the pace the ADMIN says - but it does not have an infinite lifespan (nor was it ever meant to). SS is problematic, and the President deserves praise for at least bringing the issue to the table.
Its true insomuch as every other "documentary" is true - the filmmaker sets up shots in such a way that is meant for the viewer to come to their own conclusions. That's the way good prapodanga works - the unspoken truth.
Bush is a "country boy" - that in no way means he is an "idiot" or doesnt know what hes talking about - but his rearing comes out more so than his Presidential Pedigree. . .and he could care less. Being President isnt a popularity contest or a Speech Club.
WMD was the tent-pole in which the march to war was structured around. It was not the only reason.
You call sexual harrassment, campaign finance violations, and potentially putting the interest of Chinese campaign contriubers (who work with the Chinese government) above American interests. . ."some scandals". Wowzers -
Noone in the admin made overt suggestions that Saddam was tied to 9/11. The "exaggerated" ties - you mean like enfranchising terrorist bombers by promising payouts to the families of suicide bombers who attacked Israel? Those kind of ties?
No - Bill Clinton simply launched a few missles at IRAQ (when the sex scandal was gaining tranction) and botched numerous attempts to secure UBL - all documented.
You realize. . .that though a President can WIN a state - that very often he does so by as slim a margin as the national popular vote. Meaning - that in NY city there were a significant number of people who dont fit the "Bible Belt" (do you know where that is) who did vote for George Bush.
Respectivelly disagree. CHINA's economic growth is impressive. . .but ANY growth in a region completely nationalized with no true representative government would be something to marvel at.
I disagree. Would you have a problem spreading SCIENCE to communites that believed in the GODS even though they have prescribed to this for numerous years?

Another dumb idea, privatizing Social Security, that's a bad idea because SS is social and if it's privatized you can't call it Social Security anymore.

I just thought it was amusing to watch. I really have no clue if any of that footage mixed with the naration is true.

But I'm puzzled about why someone doesn't find him some better speech writers!

he rushed into war just because he THOUGHT they had weapons of mass destruction

I liked Clinton better, even if he had some scandals

The alleged ties to 9/11 and the exaggerated links to terrorists are another.
Noone in the admin made overt suggestions that Saddam was tied to 9/11. The "exaggerated" ties - you mean like enfranchising terrorist bombers by promising payouts to the families of suicide bombers who attacked Israel? Those kind of ties?
There is also the obvious fact that in 1998 President Clinton didn't have a traumatized post 9/11 public that would willingly follow him into a horrendously costly invasion of Iraq over an issue that very few Americans would have felt justified those costs.
No - Bill Clinton simply launched a few missles at IRAQ (when the sex scandal was gaining tranction) and botched numerous attempts to secure UBL - all documented.
The only problem is that nobody except the Bible Belt and the Mr Blair seems to like him

I think China is more economically popular than Japan atm.

The main problem I have with Bush is he sees the world through his eyes only. This whole issue about spreading democracy in the Middle East and spreading our freedom, is narrow minded.
