(62,325 posts)Bush also, never resorting to name calling when pointing out bad policies is more than enough.
Yet, I have been ACCUSED of 'bashing the 'president' anyhow.
So it really wouldn't matter how civilly one criticizes a president. For some it's all about the 'person' they support, in many cases blindly.
And so long as we enough blindly loyal protectors of our leaders, nothing is going to change. It would be great if EVERYONE looked at their policies, but that is exactly what the personal attacks on those who do, are all about, to DISTRACT the people from doing just that.
Some day we will grow up as a nation hopefully, but by then it may be too late, thanks to the successful tactics of those who do not want to see the people united on policies.
