    A quadrillion times better than the last guy...

    It's amazing how fast people forget, and how spitefull resentment can be.


    I been to the Former soviet union in Clinton's army, I will never forget.

    Bush was a Good President at a bad time. I don't think that anyone could have done a good job in the last six years. The people at the Capital have lost touch with the citizens and what they feel is right for this country. Who's falt is it for this Socalistic turn in Government?
    So what ur saying is that we would have went into IRAQ no matter who was in office, i think osama would be done and gone. Instead he decided to go in and finish what his pappy couldnt do...

    No....for one main reaon...his domestic policies. He is responsible for growing Big Brother into a monstrous machine. We have lost more freedom under his administration than any other. With 9/11 it probably would have happened no matter who was Pres, but Bush was our Pres and he could have stopped much of it. He also sold us down the river when it comes to the Second Amendment.

    He did take the war to the terrorists and kept them from hitting us on our soil again...and I do support this.

    Did this surprise you? I warned anyone who would listen back in 2000
    to remember the shot his pappy took at the NRA after we were the only people who supported him in 1992.

    Bush was a mediocre president, but he was just what we needed after 9/11. He has only two faults, but they are biggies: he is too moderate, and he is a terrible communicator. We live in a visual world, and the latter fault has hurt him badly. I believe he is a good and honorable man, which is refreshing. I think he has handled the war on terror fairly well, and he understands how the economy works. He had not responded well to criticism, which makes him look silly. He is not an idiot, not a fool, and history will be kind to him.

    Please. Go back and read page one of this thread in full and report back.
    The ONLY people that can give him even a fair rating are the ones that have not taken the time or are unable to completely wrap their minds around the full extent of the damage he has done. Also the lack of things he has done. I doubt there's ever been a list as long in history.
    This is coming from somebody who voted for the man twice.

    The last time I could go out and put in five job applications in the morning and come home and get to choose from the four that called that same day was when Ford was President....When that happens again...then I'll say the man was a freaking good President!!!! Nuf Said!!!

    Not the greatest one we ever had, but absolutely better than the last one.

    Hmmm, well the prosperity of the Clinton years is gone, we are in a war we absolutely cannot afford unless we have contracts like his cronies. Petroleum is at an all time high and the oil patch cats are getting obscenely fat. He is owned lock stock and barrel by corporate interests, Homeland Security is one of the largest bureaucratic boondoggles ever, and the VP, whose former company moved to Dubai for tax sheltering their billions, shoots supporters.

    Yeah, he is a peach alright.

    His Judicial appointments are good. Most everything else he touched is a disaster.

    Judicial appointments! C'mon the man was naive enough to think that he could get Harriet Myers confirmed.

    Bush is the worst President of the past 100 years. Even if there was a kernel of good to be found somewhere, his stupid invasion of Iraq trumps all.

    I would hesitate to say that the other choices would have been worse. I don't think that there is any way that Gore would have invaded Iraq.

    I am offended by Iraq and take it personally.

    That is well put woodshermit.
    I voted for Bush in 2000, and more than anything was voting against Gore.
    But now I wish Gore had won, because he wouldn't have gone into Iraq.

    i will say the same thing about bush that i said about bill clinton......america is a beautiful and strong country and the president cant make better or worse this country. life has been good in america under both clinton and bush.



    So let me get this straight: The most powerful man in the world cannot improve or detract from the most powerful country in the world?

    The hits just keep on coming don't they!
