Do you like Bush?, After everything thats happened Options

Looking at the way George Bush dealt with the whole hurricane disaster, do you like him as a president? I think he did a horrible job. I haven't done tons of research or anything but first of all it took him 5 days to get people food and water, and before he even stepped FOOT in new orleans. Remember the tsunami? He was helping out the very next DAY and he can't even do that in our own country. I was just watching the news and it was pissing me off when they showed a clip of him hugging some new orleans residents like he saved the day, so i had to make this poll.

What I don't understand is as I'm reading the paper today, one article is saying how there's not enough funding going towards the New Orleans relief etc etc, next article is how we may dump billions of dollars into a war effort to help some other country that I can't even remember the name of. WTF. Honestly, I hate the whole "America is the world's police force" thing. It's so stupid, we dump money and all kinds of stuff into foreign war efforts that have no direct threat or connection to our country's well being, while things like hurricane katrina, etc are happening here at home and little is being done about it. Honestly, if I could afford it I would probably move out of the United States. To me it's beyond which dummy we have as a president, it's our country's general standing towards world views and even our own country's issues.

For example, the separation of church and state deal. Yes I'm a Christian, and agree that religious matter should be left out of politics, but some people take it too far. The separation of church and state issue has led on to the country appeasing any minority party's claim or complaint and ignoring the majority population. I couldn't get a college scholarship anywhere I went, even though in high school I had a 3.9 GPA, was very involved, scored a 30 on my ACT, etc, but a black guy who never did his homework, cut class, and honestly didn't care if he went to college or not got a full ride scholarship. My sister's friend is like 1/16 native american, doesn't have a clue about her heritage, and gets grants to go to college wherever she wants for free.

Geh, I guess I'm just not patriotic.
