George Bush Was a Good President

First off, thanks for a good argument, it has been fun. a.) First off, to say that spreading freedom is a virtue that America has stood for since the declaration of independence, is straight fallacious. When the French asked George Washington for support in the French Revolution (a revolution devout to the principals of freedom, liberty, and justice), Washington said that America IDEOLOGICALLY supports the quest for freedom, but will not physically get involved in international affairs. We saw our great founding fathers continue this ideology in their presidencies: Adams not going to war with England, Jefferson with the Embargo act of 1807, Madison with the refusal of entering Napoleonic Wars, etc. Not until the imperial age in the late 1800's did we see "spreading freedom", and many would argue that this virtue is indeed "unamerican". So to accuse me of opposing "American ideals" is the mark of an ignorant fool. You are speaking from speculation with little to no historical knowledge. Freeing Iraq from Hessian was fine, but you cannot argue that Iraq was less stable under him, and to fight terror in Iraq was illogical, for Al Qaeda did not exist in Iraq before we did. b.) I CAN disagree that his moral values were not good!!! War, cowboy diplomacy, ignorance, murder, and demagoguery are not moral values that I and 72% of Americans find to be good! And paying terrorist groups to kill other terrorist groups (Sunni militias were paid to kill Shi'a forces) is not "trying to rid the world of terrorism", its just trying the rid the world of the terrorist YOU don't like. c.) I already told you, I am not going to argue the economics because it is obvious that his economic policies were not good, as the recession had indicated. Now, you said that he protected the Constitution and Declaration of Independence. Now obviously, one cannot protect the Declaration. It is a historical document with no current legal importance. He DID NOT PROTECT THE CONSTITUTION. By signing the patriot act, he violated the 1st and 4th Amendments. Guantanimo Bay violated the 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th Amendments, and giving money to Israel, who gave money to religious groups, one could argue that he violated the separation of Church and State, but this is a whole other argument. 1.) I never said that not catching Bin Laden made him a 'bad person'. Please don't be such a fool. 2.) Your statement was misguided. Obama has not spent more than Bush so far. Presidents propose a set budget, and like I said, including the wars, Bush's proposed budgets were actually more than Obamas. Oh, and the fact that Bush has left the largest deficit in history IS CALCULATING THE INFLATION OF EVERY OTHER ADMINISTRATION. And it does not cost Billions to fund the Military everyday, and it is considerably less not during war time. I have allowed you to argue your points, but nothing you have said is rooted in fact. 3.) How can you prove that we have lost minimal casualties, for I can assure you that the ZERO soldiers we would have lost had we not gone to war, is more minimal. I hereby affirm, George Bush was not a good president. He left us the greatest debt of any administration in history, he left us two wars, he decreased international support, he help create the worst economy since the Great Depression, he broke the U.S. Constitution, and gave new meaning to the term 'moron'. Thank you
