Default I'd pay good money if he'd just shut up...

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7127198.stm

Paranoid delusional little jerk... One can't help but wonder why there isn't more co-operation and peace in this world. Constantly pointing the finger and making accusations doesn't solve anything!

Give it up DUBB-YA! You're lame duck, mentally deranged and a total PITA to America!

I haven't read the report yet but from what I see on the news the reason the report alleges for Iran's backing down from pursuing nukes is international pressure. If we give credibility to the report, then removing international pressure would remove the brakes on the nuke program.

Nope, there are very few people I absolutely despise, and Bush is one of them... His continual rhetoric concerning the "war on terror" and the evil Iranians is wearing really thin on me. I'm honestly beginning to believe that he thinks anyone who is Muslim is evil and his Messianic complex is real...

This is possibly true though there has been more open dissent within Iran to cause MA to 'back down".

The thing that p*sses me off about Bush and his rhetoric is that IT NEVER STOPS! If, Iran is genuinely concerned with further sanctions that would create more economic hardship for the country, then why does Dubb-Ya have to pull his "jump up and down and scream" routine?

Simply more gas on the fire and an exercise to keep his already over-inflated ego propped up IMO...

He's not much of a statesman. His head is too far into the idealist world of black and white; when in fact, the real world operates in a shade of gray.

I'd agree. I honestly don't think the guy can stop or admit a mistake. Sure, there are groups and individuals in the world that would like to see the US "eat some crow", but it's been like that for decades...

The last 7 years of the Bush administration have been the worse 7 years in US history IMO.

It might be nice if he actually stepped back and had a look at himself and his policies before coming out with statements such as that. If he did, it might occur to him that out of the two countries in question, Iran and the US, only one of them has recently been invading countries all around the world in a largely cobbled up excuse for a 'War on terror', in order to get what it wants. As such, you'd tend to think that saying things like 'Iran is dangerous' is a bit like the pot calling the kettle black. It might then possibly occur to him that the Iranians have a very good reason to want a nuclear weapon if it stops them being added to that list of countries that face the threat of attack if they don't bend over backwards to suit what he and his policy makers want.

I'm no fan of Islam, that's for sure, or any other religion for that matter, but I do think it's a bit rich to complain about someone building a nuclear weapon when you yourself have the largest stockpile of the things in the entire world, and have been using the threat of them to get your way for the past forty-odd years. Especially when the building of such a weapon by Iran, is clearly to negate that threat from a country that, in recent times, seems to have no qualms about invading countries to force its policies on others.

The US is a great country and it used to be a beacon of light for the world which stood for freedom and all that is good, but George W Bush is doing his very best to turn it into a bully that will make it hated around the world, a state of affairs which he might recall led to the attacks on 9/11. If I were an American, I would be unbelievably pissed off with how the guy is pissing away the country's admirable legacy and putting its citizens in harm's way to line he and his sponsor's pockets, he is a disgrace. And on top of all that, he would have to double his IQ to qualify as an idiot.

The US deserves a much better President than him, he clearly did not inherit his dad's brains.

I'm convinced that most of the people that hate bush, don't now what politics he's has. They are, said in a plain english, just playing follow John.

Obviously you are too young to remember the Carter administration.

But since you disagree so vehemently with the Presidents assessment then you must believe that Irans government is no danger at all, or perhaps you are just letting your hatred of the man get in the way of your objectivity?

This is bang on! Can't be said better.

In the article, Bush is simply stating the obvious, so there is nothing wrong with it. To those that hate Bush so much (For little reason I see), I suggest you quit reading articles on him. You will feel better. Simple solution to a simple problem.

I'm not a fan of some of the things Bush has done, but for all the weight he has to deal with, he is doing a pretty good job on many fronts. Much more tha many people give him credit for. The more I read about things he has done and said that are off the front page news, the more I get me respect back for him that I lost when he supported Kennedy's stupid immigration bill. He is a good man at heart.

Having read up on some of W's background, in my mind, he is clearly a man who should have never have been elected to begin with. It's amazing he's done as "well" as he has. He should have stuck to baseball.

Oh yeah? So you want to replace him with what? A professional politician? That's worse!

What exactly qualifies a man to be in the oval office anyway? Just kind of curoius.

Also amazes me people still defend him. Why can't everyone admit we the people F'ed up when our country elected and re elected him? Yes, Bush Jr is not stupid, hes acutally very intelligent - what he is not, is wise, prudent, and patient. These are what we need in the man who holds the nuclear football, the man who sends our nations sons and daughters to a war, and does not view the world through a set of horse blinders.

The thing that really upsets me about Bush, is that he seems like a really really nice guy. Just a bit dim.

And everyone hates him. Well, why dont you try and run the largest powerhouse in the world. You cant appease everyone.
