I dont want to start any flame wars, though that will probably happen, I am actually curious as to what he has done right. I dont know much about his policies and what he done.

He's fought to make abortion illegal (though we still have a long way to go). He's appointed some decent Supreme Court Judges. He's cut taxes. Even though war is bad, he's managed to fight two of them without having any actual battles on our soil. That's about it.

Well the abortion being illegal thing is can be argued about whether that is good or not, so I dont consider it a good thing to make illegal personally.

I second this. Everything that comes out of that man's mouth is comedic gold.

That's true. It's not like abortion being legal forces people who are against it to abort their babies.

He's provided relief in Africa. Other than that, not much.

Still not the worst guy, though (contrary to what the internet is trying to make me believe).

hes helped alot outside the border of the US (not talking about iraq here). prolly therefore he seems so s***, cause clinton did the exact opposite: did lots for the country, minimal for the outside world.

oh definitely, George W. Bush isn't even close to being the worst president we've had. Of course the president that resides during the population's generation is generally deemed "worst" because they hadn't lived during different times.

well i didn't say he wasn't in the 'top 5' or however you want to rate the worst presidents...but we've had worst officials, that's for sure

if you want to know who the worst president is, then research James Buchanan. If anyone is still upset of the civil war, then you can place most of your blame on him.

Worse than Franklin Pierce? James Buchanan? Andrew Johnson? And that is just covering the failure leading to the civil war, and after it. That does not even go into Calvin Coolidge, who happened to be the president, when The Great Depression happened. And that is only hitting the surface of the debate. I am not necessarily saying Bush is good, or anything along those lines. Hell, I would be willing to hear argument on why he supposedly "worst president ever." I am just tired of mindless bashing.

don't forget Warren G Harding who had this famous quote,"I am not fit for this office and should never have been here."

if you read his history, you begin to agree with him. Think of Bill Clinton, only instead of doing good things for the economy he just had the women.

Making me laugh. :P Well, did make the U.S. a safer nation... Even though there were multiple reports of Osama's plan to attack the U.S. but he was on vacation the whole time. But there are those tax breaks... I don't know much about our nation's other presidents yet so I'm just going to say that Bush was one of the most incompetent presidents of the U.S.

Good point. I mean, while, for example, Gerald Ford was made-fun for being clumsy, and Clinton for his "JFK" behavior and poor dieting, I cannot ever recall president in "modern" history who been the butt of more jokes than W. Eh, maybe Nixon. I mean, this is the guy who said the all famous "I am not crook" line. Not to mention, Nixon's eccentric voice, eccentric facial expressions, and goofy peace gesture he was known for.

He set the stage for this website.

I guess I appreciate the tax cuts. They've been quite good. I'm just relieved we haven't went to war with a powerful nation....

WTF? He didn't declare war on Muslims, only terrorists, who just happen to be muslim. If a christian group orchastrated the attack on the WTC then he would have gone after them. It has nothing to with being muslim.

Oh sure, if you consider the whole, "Completely oblierating any form of order that existed in the middle east to install a puppet government that WILL fail and inevitably lead to a strong ethnic war like we saw in the Balkans, Darfur, and Germany. This plan has worked so well in the past right?

So you think the iraqis would have preferred Saddam to stay in office instead of taking a risk in trying a new government? Don't forget how many people that man killed...
