When considering the "net cost" (lives & dollars) of all the terrorist acts committed against the U.S., through-out our entire history. Compared to the "net cost" of the Bush administrations policies. Which has hurt our Nation most?
No forecasting or history lessons, (please, I think we've heard it all). Just hard facts.
Obviously, true Bush supporters will most likely "Wag the Dog" on this one (if they respond at all.) But considering the republican party was founded primarily on the principles of "Free Enterpise" (or better known across the globe as Capitolism) you would think crunching numbers would be an unavoidable practice.... Well, here it is, create your own balance sheet and have at it..!!
Again, no forecasting or history lessons, Just hard (known) facts.
Below, I have provided just a few specifics to ponder:

Respect in the International community
Value of the dollar
Cost of war
Unprecedented conflict with-in our political system (since the civil war)
Lack of attention to our infastructure
Internal civil conflict
Stifeling medical research
Immigration
Education
Lack of facilitating care for our soldiers

Let me give you just a couple hints (facts);
The international respect issue alone has cost more than all the terrorist acts committed against the U.S. combined.
The Iraq war has cost more than all the terrorist acts committed against the U.S. combined.

If you honestly believe the Bush administration policies have been "a good thing" for our country, then you haven't "crunched the numbers", (or you just don't care...!!) If you don't care, prove it by not going to the polls in '08 !!

By the way, did I mention, I'm a registered republican...!!!
