3. I don't hate him, he is not human, he cares not for our country..
nor humanity as a whole, to hate someone gives them power over you, and he holds absolutely none over me..

40. Power
No Power, I hope we can all say that a year from now if he gets elected or re-occupies the Whitehouse (notice I did not mistakenly imply reelected).

7. Yes
I know it's not "Christian" to hate (I'm agnostic, but philosophically consider myself a liberal Christian, as confusing as that sounds...) I know I shouldn't let that twerp concern me so much, make me feel that strongly. I know I should be a bigger man than that... I know all the old adages about hating...

But damn, I can't help but hate that horrible, worthless man and joke of a "President"!

10. I have no emotions about the man.
I believe that to 'hate' someone, you really need to know him or her. I really don't know him, so I can't say I hate him.
I think sometimes we confuse disagreement with emotional hatred. I'm not willing to let anyone, least of all a Politician, get my goat.

I mean, I don't hate Republicans, even some who support him (my mom and dad do), but I do hate W because I truly believe he's evil. Many people who support him are not evil, just brain-washed or misled. But W and his administration are crimals.

13. I feel sorry for him
Ever since I saw him meeting with Clinton in the White House and seeing the panic on his face....I knew it was not going to be good.

He's over his head.

16. No.
I have never met him, so can't personalize my feelings about him.

I do, however, hate everything he repreents; the upper-class double-standard he has lived his life by; the hypocrisy of his actions; and the policies he has supported while in office.

21. I don't hate him
I would save his life if he needed it. Thats my standard. If I can't bring myself to consider saving a person's life, it must be hate. Anything less than that is just disgust.

25. Damn, that was my 500th post-
and I used it to say I would save Bush's life if needed?

I don't know how I feel about that! Im all confused now! Who am I?

Wait - let me ask myself a new question to straighten this out.

Would I vote for Bush if it would save his life?

Hmmm.... Not likely to happen, really. How would that work? I don't know, not the point. Stick to the issue - would I do it?

Nope.

I wouldn't vote for George W. Bush even if his life depended on it.

I'd still save his life, but I do have my priorities.

Now thats more like me.

22. For me...It isn't partisan, anymore.
......It's personal.

I've NEVER seen such an administration!!!!

If Buxh was a Democrat.....I'd be on the Nader forum.

29. I find it impossible not to hate him
He has done so much damage to our country, and to so many human lives in so many ways.

Should one hate a sociopath? Maybe not, but I just cannot help it.

There! I admitted my own failing. More than he can do.

33. He is evil
No one listend to Molly Ivins before the chimp got in. Ralph thought there was no difference between bush and gore? America can't afford 4 more years of this POS! Not on any level, not on an environmental level, a judicial level, an economic level, a moral level, a split level, parking level you get my drift. Kick this clown to the curb "Merica"

32. oh, yes
I've lived through a lot of Republican administrations, and while I've often disagreed with their policies I've always just gritted my teeth and worked for the Democratic candidate on the next go 'round. I've NEVER personally hated a Republican president, not even Bush Sr. Not even close. I respect the office and I ultimately respect the decisions of the American people.

But this time...whew. This imperialistic, strutting little poseur actually rouses true, pure, white-hot hatred in me. I hate what he's done to our country at home and around the world, but in a personal sense, I hate his arrogance, his banana-up-his-ass walk, the way he spits out his words and his fake Texas accent. I hate the way he bobs his head when he speaks and how he slumps over a podium - disgraceful. I hate his cowardice and lack of empathy and his utter lack of a soul. In short, I think he's a total waste of biological material and an complete human zero.

I feel somewhat free to hate him, given that he was NOT elected to his office through the consent of the governed.

Our only power left is through the ballot box, and even that is now in question. So, all that's really left to do is just hate him, however pointless that is - and work like hell to elect John Kerry.

37. Well.....
Can't stand to look at his lying, smirking, arrogant face, can't stand to hear his voice, can't stand to hear anyone put the word "president" in front of his sorry name. Don't like his policies, don't like his personality, and I don't like anyone who can't see his supreme stupidity. Yep, I guess it's true hatred.

45. It's not JUST BUSH I despise...it's the entire neo con movement
and the entire bush cabinet. Why do I hate him?

BECAUSE IT IS HE WHO HAS PUT US THROUGH ALL THIS SHIT IN THE LAST NEARLY FOUR YEARS. It is BUSH who has caused me to lose sleep and miss so many fine peaceful days worrying about what the bastard was going to do next.

He STOLE my PEACE. That cannot be replaced! He caused my family and friends and fellow Americans to suffer in horrible ways. All while he chuckles during his MANY "vacations".

Bushco has caused me physical illness and has allowed others to suffer illness and didn't do one god damned thing to alleviate any of it!

Baghdad Bush got us involved in a war that was totally unnecessary..killing THOUSANDS OF SOULS. Now Bush threatens to send MORE people into battle...my g.son is on the list.

I DESPISE THIS MOFO..... He and his whole crowd are evil, corrupt, and maniacal. I don't hate people like this normally, it's a waste of energy, but Bush has EARNED our loathing.......
