Clicking through media news sites tonight looking for an interesting topic, my attention was drawn to random headlines scrolling across the page. "U.S Troops Enter the Shiite Stronghold of Sadr City," was placed right next to "Husband Arrested in Dismemberment Slaying." One has to wonder, who decides where to place these titles? Do the editors put a topic of serious interest right next to some weird freaky story to keep our interests going? Who knows, thats another topic all together. What I want to bring up is the next headline I saw way down on the bottom of the page that caught my attention. "Bush Shows New Willingness to Reverse Course"!!!! "Realities in Iraq, Middle East 'becoming more apparent' to president". WHAT??? Whats with the sudden change of heart Mr. President? This sentence halfway through the article definately summed it up. "The realities of the situation are becoming more apparent to them. . . . Presidents begin to focus very much on their legacy, and he recognizes that insufficient progress has been made on some of these international issues." What they really mean in plain English is that no one likes Bush, no one ever did like Bush, and it has taken him 7 years to figure out that we Americans dont really like what is going on in our political system. It also shows that all Bush really cares out is his "legacy"..... so if he thinks that by maybe changing his tune in the year or so he has left in office will backshadow what he has done over the course of the presidency, Bush better start performing miracles.

I like President Bush, what do you propose he should have done differently or should be done now? What course of action would make the situation better? Instead of focusing on "it has taken him 7 years to figure out that we Americans dont really like what is going on in our political system", why dont you list the facts... like what has changed over the years that has made people's opinions shift. "Bush better start performing miracles", is a large statement, is that opinion or is that a fact? I could list ten things that Bush has done that are good for our country,so "no one likes Bush, no one ever did like Bush" is something I take as very offensive.
