Bush has stretched the resources of the Army almost to the breaking point. He ordered the invasion of a country on a fictional pretense. Thousands of people have died and the\nU.S. is now hundreds of billions of dollars in debt. Other\nworld leaders deride him and wonder how he ever got re-elected,not to mention elected in the first place. The U.S.\nhas been embarassed in front of the world,even if Bush supporters lack the wit to realize it.\n\n NO. He's not a good President.

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.

i really dont think he cares about his image,thats why his leadership and loyalty as an american trumps most political figures.clinton would poll to figure out where his ideas were.bush has conviction so his ideas are his.i think some of his decisions in his presidency will prove fruitful leading to good image.hes got my vote

Theres this last 30 percent of people that still like bush and they would continue to like him even if he ate kittens.  They blindly support him and anything bad about him or Iraq in the media is thrown aside by them.

'bush' isn't a bad president.. we have a left wing mainstream media.. and a bunch of sheep that sit in front of the tv all day and eat potato chips and believe everything they hear about crackpot conspiracy.. the same ppl that think bush is a bad pres are the same ppl that believe the da vinci code is real.

We have such a man in office right now. Just because you disagree with him politically does not mean it is not so. President Bush has the courage of his convictions and stands up for what he believes in. You may not agree with his positions, but you cannot deny that you know exactly where he stands.

How can one know the answer to some hypothetical question whose answer is somewhere in the future.  History has not judged George W. Bush yet as he is still President.  What we have here is just a lot of people here you either think everything he does is wrong and those that give him their support right or wrong.  None of this will go very far in the judgment History will have on the man.  Each President has highs and lows in their popularity, which also goes nowhere in history actually judging the merits of his programs.  There are those who believe that Hilary Clinton would be far superior of a President that Bush however that is just polls as well and have no basis in fact for the way people feel.  If in fact Hilary would be elected she would also be judged by history after her term(s) and then you could compare the two, but you can not have anything but an opinion now, not facts.

As a person maybe, as a president he is better than was the option but he leaves a lot to be desired. I am on his side for most issues but not all and I find him to at least be willing to do what he believes to be right. That is rare in politics. He will make the hard choices and stand behind them and that takes balls in his line of work.

George Bush is THE MAN! He isn’t bad, the liberal media only corrupts the American mind into thinking he is bad.

Frist I like to say that people are people, and people make misstakes, and 2nd you should never takes on a side of a "party". Some people who like Bush do not think he is perfect[like me]. But people get binded, ther think that if they say that someone that they subport does wrong that there will look like a fool too. No one like to look that way, so we put on a front. That is why peole piont on Clinton so we do not look so bad.

Bush isnt really Evil. He is simply dumb. He doesnt know what he is doing most of the time. He doesnt realize that he is digging a hole that will take America decades to climb out of, but that is commonplace for republican presidents. They break it, and then a Democrat is elected to fix it. This is a never ending cycle. One I dont see stopping anytime soon.

he is doing the job he was elected to do, protect this country from its enemies.. no  president is perfect .. but the media / left wing  exaggerates  any mistakes  and   twists   the   truth   to its advantage to make Bush appear to be inept ... in reality   history will one show he was one of the best presidents we have had.peace in the US is divided by political alliances not  the individual people like it should be. when you become that dogmatic in your views  you become blind to the truth. peace with the rest of the world  depends on their views as well as ours,  we cant make people  who are so  fanatic in their religion like us . zealots  don't have room  in their ideology for other religions and views...

Near as I can figure, among the common folks that are royally being screwed by his administration's policies and still back him, it falls into two categories:\n\n1) People that associate him with the Republicans under Reagan and thought the Reagan era was "good times".  They haven't realized that neo-conservatives running the GOP are completely different animals than old school conservatives.\n\n2) Cut'n'paste Christians that bought the born-again Bush slogans, but haven't stopped for 3 seconds to reconcile the values of divisive hatred and war for profit with their "Christian values."  Instead, they focus on the "real" issues like abortion, sex toys, and gay marriage where Republicans are more than willing to throw a few bones to the idiot masses to get more votes.

Because they refuse to accept the fact that Bush has done a lot of good things for this country.\nA lot of people accept this because it's the only side they get from the mainstream media.
