Wolf Blitzer asks, "How can Bush win back your trust?"
1. Immediately send his daughters to the front lines in Iraq, without the same body armor he is sending the National Guard without.

2. Fire Karl Rove

3. Help impeach Cheney

4. Admit Condaleeza Rice lied at 911 hearings

5. Admit he willingly lied to get us to go to war with Iraq.


I will leave the other reasons up to DUers. I know you can come up with some good ones.

60. That would be MOST excellent, of course. Wouldn't necessarily win
my trust. But it would be the ONE time he actually did the correct thing. FOR OUR COUNTRY, NOT for his own greedy, infantile, self-involved self.

7. Yeah, if that schmuck had any decency at all, he'd resign now...
...and spare the nation the disgrace.

4. Resign
and take Cheney with him. All I trust him to do is screw up more and more. If he's out of office at least I can "trust" he will be inflicting less damage on this country.

It's tough to win back something he never had to begin with.

6. Resign. Then, take a little trip.
Here is one. Warp speed would be best. A little too slow, but in the right direction.

50. Question 2: How can a Republican ass-licker like Wolfie win back
my respect? I will never trust the corporate media until they go through a similar process as Commander Clusterfuck: Resign, testify, hold to account, reform to show us it won't happen again.

Seems the only way for the government-media-war machine to regain my trust is to create a free market for ideas, get rid of K-street by making bribery illegal again, and return control of government to the citizens of this country.

One group benefits and another one pays. I'm sick of this taxation without representation shit.

then resign immediately and appoint Al Gore president. Anything short of that is too little too late.

Al Gore and John Kerry. They can share. With those two at the helm, we will have our country back to the way Clinton left it in no time at all!!

6. order U.S. troops out of Iraq;
7. resign from the presidency;
8. plead guilty to war crimes;
9. testify against Cheney; and
10. shut up.

22. Win BACK? never trusted the POS to begin with
From the first reports I ever heard of him when he was Gov. of TX, I never liked him.

And the fact that the big GOP money was behind him all the way made me trust him even less.

Admit to HIMSELF and THE ENTIRE COUNTRY that he is a lying criminal.

But he can never gain something that he never had in the first place.

He can NEVER have my trust or support.

Same for Hitler.

43. Not A Thing.
Even if he'd do all the above and then some.

How did he put it? "Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice... ehm... uh... you can't get fooled again".

After all he and his gang have done, why would anyone ever trust them again? Not ever.

But only AFTER giving back Al Gore the oval office, with VP Kerry (Al can change his mind).

In a speech to sell the war Bush said, "There is no doubt Iraq has WMD." But now they are saying they made a mistake. Over 2,000 Americans died because of a "mistake." America deserves a better government than one that can make such mistakes.
