After 9/11, Congress basically gave him a free pass because they were afraid. Bush continues to play on that fear, whether it is justified or not. To Ik Weet Niets!: I've read the Constitution, have you? It is not in his job description to wage war. That is the job of Congress. It's called checks and balances. It is designed to prevent any one part of the government from abusing power. It is the presidents job to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, act as Commander in Chief of the armed forces, and take care that the laws be faithfully executed.\nCongress gave the President the power to wage war in Iraq. If we want to place blame, it needs to be placed there first.

I believe you are absolutly right. He is depressed and angry about the mess G.W. made of the country and the war's and just about everthing elso. How he is going to have a big job cleaning up the mess made by his fellow Republicans over the past few years. You bet he is depressed.

because the president didnt listen to the people that are telling him that this is a losing battle yesterday on the abc, cbs, and nbc news, a story appeared about how bush was told, by his own hand picked generals, that the war is going badly, and he immeditaly went in to a prees conference and said the exact oppisit. bush is a perenial liar he should be shot. republicans have no one else to blame for this fiasco but themselves

The trouble is that George Bush, no matter how resolute, has never understood the Arab world. He has blundered his way through territory that should have been about diplomacy and careful planning. Now, instead, we have a mess in Iraq and almost universal mistrust of everything American. His bully boy tactics have created a politics of fear. And yes, I do believe that his miscalculated entry into Iraq has been the source of discontent that has sponsored the growth of terrorism.

I totally do not think that Bush is a good president. I recommend watching the movie Loose Change. It proves that 9/11 was a conspiracy, and that Bush knew about it. He let it happen so he could get oil from Iraq. Also, he is doing this new immigration law to distract people from raising high gas prices. This is my opinion.

I think that a bout of quickie wars led bush to believe that the war in Iraq would also be very swift. i think he would probably take a longer time before declaring war, which he has come to realize is a very long, heartbreaking thing, with no real winners.

In my book, money is often the cause of unethical behaviors, thus having more money but no more brain would not safe Bush from himself.\nBut I like your "tongue in cheek" argument.

If you're referring to President Bush, there are a number of reasons that his numbers have fallen so low lately.\n\nThe number one reason is that he got the United States into a war that isn't ours to fight. Instead of fighting terrorism, we decided to fight a dictator in a completely different country than the one which harbored terrorists. Instead of fighting terrorism or terrorists, now we're fighting soldiers on two different sides of a civil war.\n\nInstead of helping the Iraqis get back on their feet, we aggravated the situation so much, that now the entire country has dissolved into  a civil war. Instead of instilling a new, independent government, we've put into power pawns of the US government. Instead of working for the good of mankind, where help is needed AND desired (like Darfur), we're stuck in an incredibly sticky situation in the Middle East.\n\nIn a nutshell? Because so far this "peacemaker" hasn't made any peace.

no war is good for anyone.  I really think that if one coutry has a problem with another....the two leaders should duke it out and who ever is still standing wins!!  It would only cost for the flight there and back.

It has been suggested that Bush feels that way. There is no doubt that he is obsessed with his place in history – even more so than your average egomaniacal politician. It might explain his apparent lack of concern for his complete failures in Afghanistan and Iraq, for allowing Israel to choke the Palestinians to death, and for further destabilizing the already volatile Middle East. And, he does maintain that he invaded Iraq on instructions from God and he began the invasion talking about it as a crusade. The US President is a very sick puppy – and very dangerous.

Wars happen for two reasons.\n\n1. To expand power.\n2. To protect existing power.\n\nAny other reasons given are what we tell ourselves to make us feel better.

Its typical Bush he likes to send soldiers to war on false premises and ill defined goals.  He is trying to deflect attention for his utter failure

because he wants to keep the christians and convervatives on his side so he uses it often to get them to hear what he wants them to hear.  He does it alot in the decisions hes making.  With him its never been a true seperation.  He makes that line blury alot trying to get what he wants.

Its possible but not probable.  Reason being is because people want things their way or no way.  They refuse to comprimise.  So, they declare war.  Its a sad fact of life.

Bush is a person who has the guts to follow what he feels is correct. few people in the world are as gutsy as he is. his war against islamic terror speaks volumes of his guts although he made a mistake by invading iraq

Because he wants to be "The war President"...When he was a little boy he wanted to own his own "Ball team" when that didn't pan out he wanted to own his own oil company, When he ran that business to the ground...Then he wanted to be president but daddy said "You will have to have experience being a Governor...He had Karl Rove a long time smear merchant run the campaigned.  They spread all these nasty rumors that Ann Richard's (Governor) was a lesbian...George won and he really enjoyed the power of executing people on death row . There were more executions during Georges tenure. More than any Governor ever!...So when he became president he wanted to start a war so more people could die...But this time they all died based on a lie...and in the end "He will be known as the worse president ever!"
