How many of you netters think Bush will wage another war with Iraq (in the guise of protecting Kuwait) in order to win the November election? Seems like it's the only way he can win since he doesn't seem to be doing much about the USA's economy. ----- holly@mailhub.scf.lmsc.lockheed.com

Even this won't win an election for a man who negative ratings hit 80%
yesterday. He's effectivey dead. It would take a miracle on the order
of the resurection for him to win. Or something really stupid done by the
other side. But they don't appear ready to do anything that dumb. For
once.

People who dislike Republicans have used this red herring for years. "They're going to start a war." Feh. WWI, WII, Korea, Vietnam. Ring any bells? What party's presidents started those wars? Bush won't do anything until forced to do something. That's the wayhe operates. Wait until all courses of action have been elminated, except for one. That way your choice is made for you.

Well, if Bush doesn`t I don't think he has a snow ball change in hell to win and then we will have four more years of the Howdy Doody Show and we know who the dummy is..... Maybe it`s really Barbara who has both danny and georgie on the end of a string. I don't think Bush has a choice he is damned if he does and damned if he doesn't what a great place to have him.In article <holly.135@mailhub.scf.lmsc.lockheed.com>, holly@mailhub.scf.lmsc.lockheed.com (Holly Wise) writes: |> |> How many of you netters think Bush will wage another war with Iraq (in the |> guise of protecting Kuwait) in order to win the November election?

King George was quotaed as saying he will "do anything necessary" to get reelected. Starting a war is the perfect thing as historically it has been shown (i think..) that voters will vote to keep a war-time president...and if he were to do this he could also invoke a national emergency, activating the list of executive orders one of which cancels the election (someone correct me if I'm wrong) ...and voila...we have King George in his record breaking 4th term!!! Why 4th?? He was vp for both Reegan terms......I believe it was Bush who called the shots...not Ronnie Raygun. Len

Bush will win in any case, because the democrats simply don't have anyone who can beat him. Clinton sure won't. And no other party has anyone who is electable. Mark

But George isn't that way. He's too indecisive to carry through that kind of policy. > ...and voila...we have King George in his record > breaking 4th term!!! Why 4th??

And if you think Bush ran the Reagan Whitehouse you are sadly deluded. Mr. Baker probably had the most say of anyone during the past 11 1/2 years.
