What I find is that it is so easy to criticize when we have absolutely no clue what it would be like to be in the President's shoes. Sure, Bush hasn't done everything perfectly, but I seriously doubt any President has. I can say this at least, there haven't been any terrorist attacks against the US since 9/11 and that was several years ago. During Clintons' administration, there were several terrorist attacks against the United States.

What this reminds me of is the movie Bruce Almighty. He thought it would be easy to be God, but it isn't. I am sure the same goes for being the President.

At the end of the day, I agree with the war in Iraq and I agree about putting up a border fence between Mexico and the United States, or better yet, just taking over Mexico and the rest of the countries until we get to the very narrow stretch of the Panama Canal and using the Canal as our mote against illegal immigration. That will decrease the length of the fences (i.e., one on each side of the canal, do away with any digging underneath the fences, and shorten up the length of the border that needs to be patrolled. Make all those countries we take over states of the United States, give the people of those countries US citizenship and hold them accountable to the US laws, and hopefully straighten them out. INS will have less work to do, the Courts will probably have less work to do, and we will have less border to patrol and a securer border. On top of that, these guys will be able to provide us with the laborers that we need. What is the farm land like in Central America? If we really start using ethanol cars like Ford is trying to put out there, we might need the extra farm land. Resorts will be a lot nicer in Central America too.
