Yes I do, President Bush is an excellent president, who confronts difficult problems instead of ignoring them.  He does the right thing even when it would be easier for him to do the wrong thing.  He is largly responsible for removing the Taliban and Saddam Hussein from power.

Dislike intensely. I do not think he is trustworthy at all. I think he has lined the pockets of his friends (Halliburton!) at the expense of the middle-class. I think he is a big international bully; if other countries did some of the things Bush as ordered done, like invade another country without the support of the UN, Bush would have invaded them, too.  I also find it offensive how Bush and the rest of the Administration think the public are a bunch of sheep--- really, a $100 gas check, but I have to say it is OK to drill in the Alaskan Wildlife Preserve? What kind of deal is that? And how dumb do you think I am, if you think I would accept that?\n\n I think we need to break the Republican stranglehold on power in the upcoming elections.  And I voted, like I always do.  So I am allowed to complain!

How fickle people are, these polls out today are a joke. I would like to see this question posed...what don't you like about Bush, factually, not just off the cuff running your mouth...give me facts.\n\nIsn't it interesting that some 96% of the US population approved of the war in Iraq 4 years ago?  Yet, they don't approve now, sorry folks, you don't just change your mind about war in midstream.  It doesn't work that way.  We didn't have it easy during many wars, and didn't give up and pull out, eventually the tables turned and we were very successful.  I think of the Revolutionary war, WW1 and  WWII.  People seem to forget that we activly fought WWII for 4 years (after it was already in progress for 3 years).  It was awful, it was tough, but we got dragged into it by Japan, just like the terrorists draged us into this one.\n\nSo why is Bush great?  Number one, he has named his priorities and goals and stuck with them.  The economy is very strong, growing so fast the Feds can't raise interest rates fast enough.  I can't see what it is that Americans can blame Bush for when it comes to the economy, most of the damage was done by the terrorists on 9/11.  Bush said he belived in tax cuts, he didn't want new taxes and he wanted Americans to have more money in their pockets so they spent more.  All of the above happened.  I didn't see anyone complaining when they got their $300.00 a few years ago.  The democrats are dying to use taxes to lower the deficit...okay, that means our money folks, you okay with that?\nThere is a time a place for everything, raising taxes during war is not the way to go.\n\nWe have not had another attack on American soil.  If you want to keep the terrorists from attacking innocent Americans, send the military to the terrorists, keep them occupied and kick their asses somewhere else.  The men in the military are all for being out there kicking terrorism in the butt.  That is their job, they signed up for it and trained for it.  They don't just want Americans support they want success, that means letting them finish the job.  Some of these men and women are on their 4th and 5th tours, and wanting to go back for more.\n\nBush tells it like it is.  If he screws up he acknowledges it.  He doesn't mess around with anything.  He gets to the point and moves on.  You can tell how much he learned from his dad and President Regan.  Sometimes he so reminds me of Regan it's astonishing.  \n\nI'm sorry but when Hurricane Katrina came and Bush got the report on the dykes a few days before landfall..what was he going to do about them?  Send peple out to dump dirt on them?  It was too late to rebuild, it was not feasable to get everyone out of the City, hell that shouldn't even be the governments job to do that.  We have been through 3 direct Hurricane landfalls in 2 years where I live in Ft. Pierce, FL (not to mention the 4 indirect storms and depressions) and we took care of ourselves.  This is the land of the elderly.  If we had waited for the government we would have been standing in waist deep water for weeks.   Bush came and saw us, he gave us support, it's more emotional than anything else.  That is what we needed, when you dont' have TV, radio, phone, you feel very isolated.  Having your President come to see you is a great moral booster.  He is very good at that.\n\nBush has reached the point where he really doesn't care what everyone thinks about him.  He is out for doing what he thinks is best for America, not whats best for the social circle.  So if the other countries don't like it well, I'm sorry, but that is the way it is.  As soon as everyone begins to wake up and realize that we are all targets, we will be better off as a nation and a world.  If your President doesn't look after you first, then what good is he?  It's like having a dead beat dad...no thanks, I'll take GW!

My only problem with President Bush is that he can't run for a third term.  I think he is a wonderful President.  Greatness is not appreciated in its own time.  Neither Mozart nor Shakespeare were considered geniuses in their day.\n\nIn fifty years time, the history books will record that George W. Bush (and his close friend Tony Blair) rid the world of a dangerous evil.  Peaceful democratically elected Middle Eastern governments will erect statues of him honoring him as the man who brought peace and freedom to their troubled land.\n\nI would like to see him veto a spending bill, but has anyone noticed that our economy is doing quite well.  There hasn't been another terrorist attack on our soil.  Perhaps this is because he is intercepting the cell phone calls of terrorists.

I really like President Bush. I don't agree with all of his decisions, but I think he is a wise, Godly man who is a good leader. People claim that he is an awful president, but no one ever likes the president. People had problems with Clinton and every president before him. I am sure if some of these people who criticize Bush would have people that didn't like them if they ran the country. Electing a president is more or less electing the person who will get the blame. Running the most powerful nation in the world can't be a day at the beach....

2000-2005: Heck yeah.  I kept seeing him with harsh reviews, and constant attacks for no apparent reason, but from liberal sissies who literaly threatened to flee the country if Bush was elected president again.  He can't do whatever everyone wants him to do people!  Hes fallen under stress with the war in Iraq, and has been in trouble since then.  He needs support, not feedback.  Now do us a favor and can it!\n\n2006: Not at all.  I used to be a Bush supporter, as already said.  Now, my repulicanism is going down the drain, as is my hopes of this torment ending.  The war in Iraq, Neuclear threats, Anthrax, Snipers...and we even abandoned Osama Bin Laden!  For crying out loud, do you not know how our Middle East conflicts in Bushs term (Not the war in iraq, but on terrorism) started!?  Where has Osami gone to?  We would know, had Bush not set his mind elsewere

I do.  I don't understand why 80+% of people thought he was a good president when we were going to war and dealing with terrorism and now half of the population has decided he shouldn't have gone.  Where's the consistency?  I guess popular opinion is fickle and that's why I support Bush, because he doesn't just base his decisions on popular opinion.

Because he was better then Kerry. what's wrong? You don't like out president? C'mon he's just a little slow! ;) Be nice to the little guy. "Bush, you wanna pretzel? huh? Do ya? Do you wanna pretzel Bush?"

No. I think he has done a pretty good job. He has made one big mistake. Supporting Bush in the Iraq war. Everything else has been ok.

While I had my problems with Clinton, trade issues, especially, he was intelligent, capable, eloquent and cared about people. Bush has none of those qualities.\n\nClinton also reversed 12 years of deficit spending and created a 7 trillion dollar surplus. Bush wasted it in the space of about 2 years.

I think Bush is a great man. He has delt with soo much since he has been in office. My props out to the guy. No matter who is elected to be in office there will always be people who don't agree. You can not please everyone.

President Bush is a wonderful president! And you are wrong in the polls...the latest polls show a 40% rating. 82% percent of this poll are Republicans. Now I will tell you why I totally respect our president.... I hope I don't leave anything out!!\n\n1. Low unemployment (5.3 million new jobs)\n2. Excellent growth. \n3. Low inflation (under 3% ... In spite of gas prices)\n4. Low interest rates. \n5. Bush has given tax breaks back to the working class.\n6. Has lead the world in aid to Africa.\n7. He has appointed more minorities to the highest levels in government.\n8. He has increased spending on education, environment, social programs, Medicaid and drug plans.\n9. He has extended tax cuts. \n10.The economy is still stable in spite of the war and Katrina.\n\nAnd:\n\nHe has restored our moral values. He relies on God for guidance in his decision making. (His ethics and moral values are those seen of Godly men.)\nHe cares enough to try to make this country a better and safer place?\nHe openly asks for solutions from both parties. (but because of their political agendas would rather his polices fail then for them to work as a team to better this country.)\n\nAnd the war in Iraq has brought down an evil dictator, Saddam, and freed the Iraqis to begin a new government. They now have a Prime Minister and a full Cabinet, and have established their own Constitution. They have soldiers in training and a police force. And the Iraqis are thankful to our troops for their help and support in all these things.\n\nAnd now, our troops, our coalition, and the Iraqi police have brought down and killed the evil terrorist leader, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. Since his death, many raids (400+) and many documents and have lead to the capture of other terrorist.\n\nPresident Bush has accomplished much... In spite of bashing from the media and the left...\n\nUnfortunately, the "leftist" and Liberals will see nothing but negativity in our President. They will continue to make fun of his way of talking, the way he looks, the way he walks, and never give him any credit for any of the good he has done. \n\nThis bashing and disrespect is sad that they choose to do this instead of supporting him. However, President Bush will just continue doing the job he was elected to do, inspite of them.
