I really really disagree when people who don't even like President Bush say that we should respect him because he is president. I don't beleive I am taking it out of context to say that that means you should respect people because of their job and position in life. Maybe you should respect him because he too is human, and you beleive in respecting ( Read more... )

I completely agree with you. I think that people deserve respect only when they have earned it, like by working hard. I'm sure your dad deserves more respect than President Bush.

Hah, I think most people deserve more respect than President Bush.

I think that President Bush, as do all former Presidents, work far harder than you give them credit for. True, we shouldn't just respect people since they're of higher position than us... but the inverse shouldn't be true either ( ... )

I thought someone would say this. Being president is definately a hard job. His job or how hard he works at it is not why I don't respect him. His decisions or more his views, to me, are not respectful of other people, so I in turn lose respect for him. I don't beleive that he works as hard as a lot of people, or as hard as he could. I'm not saying there haven't been worse presidents, or that he is a terrible person at all. I don't even mean Bush specifially. The Inverse of what I have said isn't true either, for me at least. I don't not respect him because he is of a higher position than I.

Right, those are the reasons to not respect someone... for what they're doing. I totally agree with you. I am obviously a little less critical of Bush, seeing as how I view the alternative as spineless, opinionless, and is basically just trying to be the antithesis of Bush... but I do disagree with a lot he's doing in office and wish we could get someone better (on any side). Our options suck.

These comments are like essays.

I don't really think any of us have been alive long enough to have seen enough Presidents to know who is doing a bad job and who isn't. i'm not defending bush by any means. he's clearly an idiot, this is old news. But insulting him isnt a 'fad', it happens to every president in office until they are out of the white house and become a legacy and suddenly are respected for all that they did.

You don't have to compare a president to another to have an opinion on whether he is doing a good job. You either like, don't like, or don't care what the president does. If you like, hes a good president, if you dont like, hes bad, and if you dont care well, you dont care. If he is taking care of your needs and others, then a president does a good job. if not, he so doesnt.
