true but a great man respects his country and his father but does not use them, and you agree that BUsh would be nothing if he had grown up like most americans?

Its never been done before for a president to attend a popes funeral

Both think they speak for God
to compare the Pope and Bush is a joke.

I never said most want a socialict health care system. They do however, want health care. The cost to provide that from after tax income for the average and low income workers is preventing coverage. Also fewer and fewer employers are paying part or all of the cost and the result is more people do not have coverage. Nothing Bush is talking about addresse this problem! In addition, he pushed Social Security when the far greater problem is with Medicare and Medicade.

I'm sorry, I can't let this ignorance pass. What is your problem with Bush attending the Pope's funeral? What GW isn't good enough to attend? If you lived close enough would *you* have attended? Who the hell cares if it's ever been done before. That means exactly what in the grand scheme of things.
