No. We're in a war that seemingly has no end or beginning and our economy is worse than it has ever been before.

It hasn't been the best, but it is no where near as bad as uneducated/liberals want people to believe.

How is Bush responsible for the economy now?

Sure he made one bad decision on some bad evidence that led to more negative moves, but he was in a really bad position after 9/11.

You already know what they will say so why ask? And I don't blame him for the economy that would be ignoring all the democratic fingerprints all over it.

And Clinton had Osama in our possession and let him go. Clinton also signed NAFTA if I'm not mistaken. Does that make Clinton worse?

Edit: Sorry, meant Osama !

Didn't he promote faith-based initiatives? I would say that was a good job. Also, he put Saddam Hussein out of commission although had to tear two nations apart, one (Iran) physically, and the other (U.S.) politically.

Agreed.

The New York Times and MSNBC would want us to believe that the U.S. is doomed because of George Bush. The reality is that George Bush had to deal with the worst attack in the history of the United States less than one year after he was sworn in. Let's not forget that he once had a 90% approval rating and was reelected by a considerable margin in 2004. The real turning point in Bush's popularity coincides with the Democrats winning control of Congress. Too bad most Ameicans don't even know that the Democrats control the congress and harbor the real legislative power in the country.

For the record, I don't think Bush has been a good president, but not for the same reasons that most Americans have. I feel that he has been way too fiscally liberal and has gone too far with deficit spending.

like i said earlier he slept on info of 9/11 being imminent......he also pushed this country into a second war that wasnt needed.......and third the NYT does make him out to be the single hand behind our downfall which i think is untrue...it took alot more then just him for us to be in this situation but he should have attempted to fix it earlier then now

Listen, no one could have possibly imagined that terrorists would hi-jack commercial airlines and fly them into a skyscraper. I'm not denying that he has been over-zealous in the war on terror, but think about how he felt after 9/11. He felt personally responsible for all of the lives lost and felt that it was his duty to keep America safer. Like I said, I disagree with many of his policies, but he is undoubtedly a decent human being who loves his country.

He led the country without the support of the UN into a war with false accusations and drag other nations with him.

His government didn't do enough for people during the floods. Mostly because they weren't going to get votes there.

The economy is stuffed and will effect other countries as well.

I don't think it could be much worse. He will be remembered for all the wrong reasons as President.

EDIT: As for "a decent human who loves his country": When his country was under attack he took a holiday!!

I think people are looking at the 9/11 attacks in the wrong way. I agree that it was a big disaster, and the biggest attack to america in a long time, but that doesn't mean it's the biggest threat to america. 9/11 happened because apparantly america didn't see it coming. Just with the extra safety checks that were introduced after 9/11, the chance of an attack anything like 9/11 was decreased dramatically. It's not like america would be invaded by a terrorist army too, because they can't let their flocks of sheep alone. Those people are living in medieval times while america has the biggest army of the world. I'd say that america not being attacked since 9/11 is not really a strong point of bush. If there was another successful attack on america since 9/11, it would pretty much make bush the biggest failure of a president in quite some time.

Could have been much much worse, he had very good solid ideas, but never had time to oversee them because of the war. If 911 hadn't happened or the war, Our country would be in great shape..

First of all, bush knew nothing about 9/11. You guys are so gullible.

Secondly, beleive it or not, everything isn't his fault. The problem isn't bush. Its the American citizens.

"Lyk, omgz we are broke wuddo we do?" "Omgzz lets blame bush!!"

"Omgz I cnat pay bak mi loan!" "Bush giv us money!!"

"Im faat help help" "It all bush fault!!"

Greedy greedy selfish USA will die within 200 years. I'm smart, I'm gonna move to Wales in a few years =)

Where were those weapons of MASS DESTRUCTION again that we HAD TO GO TO WAR over for in the first place cause it was soooo imminent that these weapons in IRAQ were so plentiful? That was the main reason we went to war in the first place.

9/11 was expensive not to mention the Iraq war its not his fault it was/is so expensive.

9/11 wasn't expensive for national debt. Do you really think the US government did all the funding on the reconstruction? The Iraq war was expensive, and not necessary. Just a memo to you: the terrorists that attacked the US weren't in Iraq. They were in afghanistan. However, to most americans the middle east is one big country full of terrorists, so noone seemed to bother. In the meantime the war started with a false excuse (WMD's), and the country isn't shaping up to be a better place to live than before the war. All america had to do was concentrate on afghanistan, and the terrorists would be found and killed.

I do agree that it's a good point that saddam hussein has been caught, but who says the next saddam won't stand up once america leaves? I don't think democracy will work in Iraq, and the people that once had the power will try to reclaim it, either democratically or by shooting the opposition.

It wasn't great, but it wasn't the worst.

Staying in Iraq past learning about no WMD there and learning about Iraq's surplus = fail.

pre-bush national debt: ~4.5 trillion

post bush national debt: ~ 10 trillion

Pre 9/11 national debt: 4.5 trillion

NOW: 10 trillion

9/11 was expensive not to mention the Iraq war its not his fault it was/is so expensive.

it was the bush administrations decision to invade iraq under false pretense therefore they are repsonsible for the ridiculous costs of it

anyway. a little perspective. it took the us government basically 200 years to rack up a debt of about 5 trillion. it took the bush administration 8 years to double it. if the words "epic fail" can not be used to describe that then i do not know what can.

I have always been a big Bush supporter but that doesn't mean my head is stuck in the sand.

I can't blame him for the war.... congress had the same info and voted for the war

The economy...the war is a major factor in the deficit and everyone knew that going in.....that's what happens during a war.
The real culprit here are policies that forced banks to give loans to unqualified people, (Clinton) and the mismanagement by the leaders of freddy mac and fanny mae

Illegal immigration....Bush blew it on this one. Instead of closing the border he decided to look the other way

Homeland security...he has done a great job

PR....he has done a poor job of communicating with us. Of course the media has done everything in its power to crucify him on the way.

Spending....he has done a terrible job of reigning in his team. Its congress who chooses and votes to spend , not Bush. They looked like a bunch of out of control Dems

Gov. is bigger now not smaller...another Bush failure

But all in all Bush has not done the terrible job the media has lead us to believe.
