I'm not a Democrat. Nor am I a Republican.
Since I've been voting, starting when 18 year olds were allowed to vote in 1968, my guess is that I've voted for a nearly equal number of members of each party. (in the early years, most of them lost -- of which I was very proud)
Sorry, but this isn't a GOP vs. Dems thing with me. I just see too many things in President Bush that I have strongly disliked in other politicians in the past.
Again, this is my opinion. You certainly don't have to agree.

The thing is that this country isn't run by one person. Others have a voice. The idea of "The buck stops here" is great, but it doesn't reqlinquish other parts of our balanced government of responsibilities and credit. You didn't mention those other congressmen and didn't even include the quote.
And I have to ask this. Knowing it stopped 2 terrorist plots in the 2 years it existed, do you wish it had never existed?
