A couple of issues Esmer: First and foremost this is a forum for lighthearted fun and games. The content of your post above is innappropriate and misplaced. I Request that a mod split this thread and move it to the Think Tank where it will be more appropriate.
Second, you are employing an emotional appeal to make your point which is a logical fallacy. You are also using generalization which is another no-no.
Arguments of this ilk are easily countered by either pointing out the inherent fallacies or countering with similiar emotional appeals:
CAUTION: THESS VIDEOS ARE UNSUITABLE VIEWING FOR THE YOUNG OR FAINT OF HEART. The following videos display graphic scenes of torture including Iraqi's being thrown from 3 story buildings onto concrete. Limb, hand and tongue amputations. Breaking of arms. Executions and a cornucopia of many other practices routinely committed under Saddam's regime.
Video 1
Video 2
I would suspect that those in these videos who survived to witness the downfall of Saddam might counter that Bush is indeed a hero to them.
Now, Back to our regularly scheduled programming.

Just name something dastardly, cruel, painful, disgusting, insensitive, or downright evil that the President is responsible for...Try it! It's easy and fun. Just think of something you don't like and add it to the list!
looks like it qualifies to me.

Hemmorhoids, and the spelling thereof.
Migraine headaches.

Bush is responsible for the following shocking statistics:
This year alone, 31 out of 32 NFL teams will NOT win the Superbowl,
29 out of 30 MLB teams will NOT win the Series,
29 out of 30 NBA teams will NOT win the Championship,
AND..........
29 out of 30 NHL teams will NOT win the Cup.

Actually, I don't have a problem with them either. But, HE is responsible for them......or at least that's what Laura claims!

Wow, I really pissed off the Esmer, didn't I?
This is a GAME dude... don't send a caesure after me ok?
I say that GWB is responsible for:
That horrendous TRAFFIC I faced on the 91 Freeway today. (for those of you not in So Cal, the 91 is the most wretched POS excuse for a freeway that there ever was. Believe me.)

How is it that Tom has less than twice the posts of Fist, and yet over twice the percentage? I think George W. is responsible! Trickle down! Run for the hills!!!!
