The same that Clinton, Bush 1, Reagan, Carter, and most others, except those like Eisenhower, made. Say, why not make a ballot about them too! =:-)=
But did Clinton, Reagan and Carter send thousands of our finest to their deaths?

(p.s. Bush 1 and Carter served in WW2.)

^My mistake. Clinton sent those troops into Somalia, launched air-raids on Iraq and Kosovo, yet Bush is the bloody murderer.... Name one president who hasnt sent US troops into a battle zone, because I cant. By the way, I dont agree with the Iraq War at this point, but I'll make my final judgement in the future.
No, soldiers are soldiers. I agree that many didnt die in Kosovo, if any (I dont believe any were killed on the US side anyways). That was more of a point that Bush is a "killer" but Clinton wasn't. I didnt love or hate Clinton, by the way.
This ballot did not accuse Bush of being a 'killer' - just not making a personal sacrifice.

^Agreed. However, its a common theme on this site and most Bush ballots are bound to go in that direction anyways.
Cletus, I'm not sure if James Carter or John F. Kennedy ever got the US involved in a war. No US troops died in the Kosovo bombing campaign which was a success for Democracy and I have no clue to what happened in Somalia. I'm not a big fan of Bill Clinton either, in fact I'm not really a fan of any politician. All US presidents have fu**** up somehow but what Dubya has done has passed all records and boundaries.
HE SACRIFICED YOUNG SOLDIERS LIVES. JUST LIKE A 10 YEAR OLD SAYING THAT $200 Sneakers are WORTH IT . FOR THE SIMPLE FACT THAT IT WASN"T THE KIDS MONEY JUST AS IT WASN"T BUSHES LIFE. HES THE LOWEST OF ALL LIFE FORMS
I thought human sacrifice died out with the Aztecs. Oh well, guess I was wrong.
When asked about 'sacrifice,' Bush made the following statement to Jim Lehrer a few days ago -- "Well, you know, I think a lot of people are in this fight. I mean, they sacrifice peace of mind when they see the terrible images of violence on TV every night." I swear, he can hardly open his mouth without saying something functionally retarded. It's like reading the second half of 'Flowers for Algernon!'
