Ya mean GWB isn't a complete tard and doofus ?

Hang about the movie hasn't come out yet, so how could Oliver Stone have planted that impression in my mind ?

quite a challenge to do otherwise, the guy has been a total failure all his life, from A to Z, how could someone portray him otherwise ?
Yep, must be the crowning disappointment of anyone's life to become President of the US. Stick to economics, buttfrier, at least that's a subject in which you can sound convincing.

can you portray Duh-bya in a positive light for us, with examples?

name 1 thing he has done that has had a positive outcome.

Fuedalism alive and well in the USA. Grandfather rich nazi banker, father head of the CIA. Dumbalya never had to lift a finger to "succeed".

My point: any movie is limited, and this one will be, too.

I'm not an Oliver Stone fan when it comes to 1. history and 2. historical stuff, he's done.

I did like Wall Street and its main writer is the same guy who has written "W."
Do you think Bill Clinton's press secretary Mike McCurry will ever write a book? The guy seems to be sworn to silence.

Make no mistake about it, if it wasn't for his daddy, you would have never heard of GW Bush,

Btw not playing at all, your rules confuse me.

looking for your daddy help at over 50 is hardly an accomplishment by any measure,

If you want to be an apologist, try someone else who at least worth it, supporting an inferior leader like GW Bush does say much about the character of his supporters,

You made the announcement, not me, to the effect that he'd be a useless good for nothing - if it wasn't for...if it wasn't for?

Now you backtrack and divert from your own desperate though feeble attempt to denigrate the most powerful man in the world, who btw earned the position. Oh, and even if your standard chorus has any basis in fact, that he cheated, then at least made it as a contender...there you go, even more for you to cling to in pathological denial.

If you don't like him then say so. There are many intelligent people on TD, and it's sad that you need to cheerlead for the intellectually challenged that cannot see through and readily fall for such crap.

Never met you, but I imagine you to be a very bitter person, insecure and with nobody to blame but the rest of the world for your own failings and missed opportunity.

I am having a hard time following your logic about how I am backtracking ??? maybe you could explain yourself ? or is your name AA and have no logic in your accusations ?

No, that would be you sorry. I mean what kind of person would keep supporting such a failure and think of him as some kind of hero ?

I don't like him as a president because he is unfit to be president, it's that simple. He is a disgrace to the presidency.

See my point about the quality of characters of those who support him. As soon as they have no arguments to explain themselves, they start the attack mode. Keda, thanks for proving my point, you are a proud supporter of GW Bush and that speaks volume about your character. Nobody is perfect, so no need to go into attack mode
