Bush is most unpopular president ever

Well when the war started it actually brought up the economy and I can't say that over the past 3-4 years it has helped much either, but my statment was basically that its not all because of war on why the economy is in rough shape right now.

But you said the war stimulated the economy. It didn't...and never has.

Um ya it actually did when it first started. back in 01 there was a recession, in 02 and 03 when the war kicked up the economy went into an expansion period and the war had an influence. If you don't believe me google FRED that will give you all the stats of GDP, and economic growth, as well as it will show you a graph from 1900 to present time of all the recessions and expansions. If you know about history you can then tell why the graph was at high points and why it was at low points.

Clearly you don't want to take the time to research and it get on the same page but thats ok. You do realize that our ecomony is based on output, which is GDP, right?

Hes not the worst president ever even though hes pretty bad. Andrew Jackson, Nixon, Grant, Maybe Harding and Hoover.

This administration however is a complete disgrace, nothing but crooks and arrogant, curropt, self-absorbed morons advising the intellectual equivelent of what I just created in the toilet after breakfast.

Because clearly you don't understand how the economy works, because if you did you wouldn't be making the statements that you are currently making.

An economy is based on output, a recession is means that there is less output than recent periods, which is what we are currently in. At the end of '01 the country went into a recession because of obvious reasons and other reason such as tech stocks not being worth as much as they once were. The country soon came out of the recession fairly quickly around 02-03 one of them being the war. Now it didn't boost the economy 10 fold and it wasn't solely the reason why it came back into an expansion, but with war means things need to get manufactured, things are being bought and sold and used. With that being said things needing to be manufactured, means more labor, means people are working, means people are spending money when they have jobs. So yes the war did help the economy in its early stages, but as time has dragged on the war is indeed over, its trying to keep peace in a country thats in disarray. At this time with the housing market being the way it is and inflation being as high as it is, the war isn't helping, but it did at one time.

Actually I understand it quite well....and the economy is not doing well. But what does that have to do with your statement that the Iraq War stimulated the economy? I asked for proof that the war stimulated the economy which you still maintain. And still haven't provided....

Did you read anything I just wrote? :| Everything I just presented to you is fact! I told you where to look for the graphs and if you don't want to take the time to go and look them up then don't. You were born with hands and eyes, go google FRED like I said and look at the numbers its not that difficult.

Also I just explained to you how the war stimulated the economy in the earlier stages of it, if I'm not speaking english please let me know. :|

They'll get to do McCain, Obama or Clinton then.

But Bush was comedy gold, it will be a hard act to follow.

ill be honest I thought the bill clinton impersonations on SNL were better. You see, Bush is too easy, so its just not as funny since anyone can make fun of him.

Wonder why ?8)

Bunch of greedy self serving scumbags who need to hang next to Bush .. Hang that Senate slimey slugs

mccain is going to get ass ***** by comedians if he gets elected. the way he talks just begs for impersination

Yet he's had the highest approval rating EVER also.

Go figure.

And also, that's CNN, a huge liberal station.

That was the day after September 11th. Now his approval ratings are lower than your chances of getting with Jessica Alba.

I fail to see what that has to do with Bush's approval rating.

I fount making fun of Bill Clinton was more funny. Especially that guy that now plays Donald Trump in some SNL scripts, he use to play Bill Clinton really good.

Ironically, he's held the highest approval rating as well..Azurr

I'm not surprised.thusaha

I'm not supporting him, I just felt like pointing that out.

Funny isnt it - last week polls showed that Gordon Brown is currentlt even more unpopular than neville chamberlain! (he who had that disaster with hitler in munich)

who voted these idiots in eh? :roll:

Eh... Bush has been a crappy president, but it's not like we've had a great one since Eisenhower. The only tolerable one since then was Reagan, and even he put us in a big deficit. Bush, Clinton, Bush, Carter, Ford, Nixon, Johnson, Kennedy... No thanks.

Pft... Having mediocre presidents is almost America tradition at this point. I mean, just look at the year following Liclon. Not really one worth talking about until Theodore Roosevelt, almost 40 years later.
