You seem to forget that Bush is the executive...

And he has been for six or so years.

Yep, and will be for another two (2).

How long does the man have to be
president before you guys make him accountable for his actions

Yes, I "hold him accountable." I don't have a problem with his
actions, save the proposed amnesty for illegal immigrants.

and quit
blaming past adminstrations?

It was Winnie that was having problems with the way things are now
(that are the way things were then but didn't have a problem with them
then). See?

Yes. You are right. Clinton started the war in Iraq and Bush is
doing everything he can to bring us "peace with honor".

Saddam started the war with the invasion of Kuwaiit. The coalition
kicked his ass back to Iraq, and demanded certain things to insure
that hew wouldn't make more trouble. He agreed to weapons
inspections, and he agreed to the no fly zone. We allowed him to sell
some oil to buy food and medicine for his people, but he sold oild to
buy himself a life of luxury and Johnny Walker Black for his troops.

You blame America for his starving and sick people, and you blame us
for his repeated violations of the no-fly zone and denying access to
the weapons inspectors. Whatever Saddam does is OK.

Also the economy was in the dumper under Clinton

That was obvious.

and under Bush it is
soaring to new heights.

Hardly.

Yes, the world is much better now than it was then. Bush should get
praise instead of criticism.

Bush will never get praise. He's a Republican.

Oh, maybe when he's dead, and some reporter opens him memoirs and
discovers that he was critical of his father for spanking him will
there be a kind remark for him. I'm old enough to remember the hatred
for Gerald Ford, but once his interview criticizing the war was made
public, there was ALMOST a kind word for him.

I don't understand your being down on Bush over immigration. After
all, Clinton started the flood and Bush just doesn't think it's fair
to cut it off when so many families are planning to come here.-

I wasn't for NAFTA, either.
