I think the people should stand up against this "President", he hasn't been running the country in a responsible way. We've gone from huge surplus to huge deficits. His new budget doesn't even account for the war, occupying Afghanistan, or the war on terrorism. He talks about creating jobs, well his administration has the worst job creation record of any other in the last 58 years - of any party. The tax cut for the rich, means less stripping educational and social programs, and certainly won't stimulate the economy. Bush should go after the real terrorists (Al Qaeda), and work with the UN inspectors in Iraq. Somehow Bush has taken all the good will shown to our country after 9/11 and has somehow turned the world against us. Even some of our most loyal allies don't like the US anymore. Most of our military war planners think this pre-emptive war is a really bad idea, and it will only inflaming the middle east more against us. Even the Joint Chiefs of staff urged Rumsfeld to tell Bush to cool it. Even worse, his administration is trying to slip "Bunker Busters" (which are nuclear weapons) into our military's "conventional" arsenal. The Washington-driven media, has been trying to make us feel ok about using these nuclear weapons. Just so you know, the explosion blows out a crater of radioactive dirt which rains down on the local region with deadly fallout. The UN Inspectors haven't found anything to justify war, so why should we sit back and not question everything and work for peace.
