Impeace! An Oil man trying to help us, please! That's like saying Satan is gonna save our souls! He has screwed Iran and such, and even our own people here in the US! Yeah he brought back the military quo, but at what costs? the cost of the oil we buy from who, IRAN, IRAQ, and Baghdad! Not to mention the soldiers who have spent well more than the 4 years they only signed up for.Other than good bud what the f*ck is out there??? All I can say more than that is watch Canadian Bacon

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...

No President can satisfy each and every individual.  In the given circumstance, his is the best. Even the best President of US will do the same thing what Bush has done. His actions are the best.  Take it from me, the next president of US will make the present one the best - his worst critics will only say these words.  His actions were all by and large good ones. No doubt.

I feel he is by far the worst president in the history of our country. He demonstrates absolutely no understanding of statesmanship, competence, and the ability to govern by compromise. \n  Our government has three branches of government. It is obvious that disagreements on policy and its execution will occur. Bush is blind to anything that differs with his own policy and pushes forward an agenda that ignores all suggestion of other views.\n  His entire presidency is a failed attempt at prosecuting a war which has cost the lives of 2000+ Americans and over 30,000 Iraqis in the name of \nDemocracy. That price is not worth the cost in lives and money. That war has been singularly the most flawed effort in our history.\n  His economic policies are based on cruelty and fantasy. The rich Americans are profitting from every single proposal, while the poor are suffering. \n  His reaction to  Katrina demonstrates that we are unready for an attack on our country by terrorists even after the September 11 attack which should have woke us up. His appointment of cronies to sensitive offices that require \ncompetence demonstrate his own lack of perception of excellence. \n   To answer those who say he is maligned, send your children to fight the war in Iraq and if they come back in  a body bag see if you say the same thing!!!!! Bush and his friends have not sent one of their own.\n   Finally, anyone with his resume would have been turned down for both the job of Texas governor and President of the United States if his last name weren't Bush. If his name were Smith he would have been laughed off the American  political stage and sent back to drink his way to oblivion.

Bush is one of the best presidents ever!!! A very good man. True he is not right about everything but who is. He is doing great under the circumstances. The media totally misrepresents him.

Remember when George Bush was a moron? A poor student who spent most of his life in a substance abusing haze, who cost America billions in the Savings and Loan bailout, whose only foreign policy experience was the “It’s a Small World” ride at Disneyland, and who stole the presidency despite forming sentences like the kid from “Deliverance”? Up until September 10 2001, Bush was the favorite whipping-boy of talk show hosts and columnists. But, in the wake of the Al Qaeda attacks, somehow that same George W. Bush became a hero. And a recent poll found that a surprising majority of Americans think George Bush is doing a good job as president. A good job? In the 3rd year of his presidency the US economy is still in tatters while he runs around touting a foreign policy that can be summed up as “Hulk Smash”, and people consider that a good job?\nMany people will tell you he's doing a good job because of his leadership after September 11. Huh? Why do they think Bush did a good job after September 11? Because he publicly led America’s response to the attacks? He’s the president, what other option did he have? Curl up in a fetal position and drool like Ozzy Osbourne? Hell, maybe if he got in a plane like Bill Pullman in Independence Day and actually joined the battle, fine, but giving him high marks for making speeches and waving his fists is like giving a student straight As just for showing up to class.\n\nMaybe they think Bush deserves extra credit for ordering post-911 military retaliation against those deemed culpable. *sarcasm*Wow, what a bold, groundbreaking move. Much as I supported the action, an American President ordering a military response is like the guy at the drive-thru asking if you want fries with your order. It’s the most basic, perfunctory function of the job.\n\nAnd what did he do after he took out the Taliban? Help keep Afghanistan from the clutches of nasty local warlords and gangsters? Start to build bridges with the anti-western world? Or maybe even pay attention to the continuing-to-falter American economy? No – he looked for someone else’s ass to kick. Bush with his military is like a boy who’s just discovered his penis – he can’t stop playing with it. After all, the War on Terror distracted people from realizing Bush was the same election-stealing, silver-spoon moron he was on September 10th, so why not keep it going?\n\nAnd so George W rooted around in his dad’s war-chest and pulled out some old scripts, and once again Iraq was the enemy. No question, Saddam Hussein is a world-class tyrant, torturer and oppressor of his own people. You’d think it would be easy to find a reason to take him out. But in the months since Bush focused his monkey-like attention on this shiny object, he still hasn’t been able to convince anyone but his cronies that war against Iraq would actually provide any benefit. It would de-stabilize an already volatile region, engender greater hatred of the west among Middle-Eastern nations, seriously damage any existing good relations with Arab countries, and likely only result in greater terrorism against the west. But Bush keeps stamping his feet and demanding his war, like a 2 year-old in a Toys R Us aisle screaming for a new BeyBlade.\n\nAnd that’s what really puts the lie to the notion that Bush is doing a good job – after months of trying, he actually has fewer people convinced the US should war with Iraq. If he was a halfway competent President, he could have cooked-up some decent Gulf of Tonkin, tossing babies from incubators propaganda by now. In fact, Bush is such a lousy president he can’t even convince Americans to go to war, which is, let’s face it, like trying to keep a dog from licking itself.\n\nI don’t really blame Americans. Their media’s become an extension of Ari Fleischer, they’re scared, and they want to believe – no, need to believe – that the guy in charge of their safety knows what he’s doing. It’s like th

Hmmm... nope I don't HATE Bush.\n\nHe's in a no win situation because he created the situation he is in.\n\nI can't think of a single thing in the last six years that he has done that I agree with.\n\nTo make me happy, he could voluntarily resign the Presidency right this minute and apologize to the world for his stupidity.

Bush's job is not to run the country, his job is to be the puppet for those who are truly running the country.  You don't seriously think that Bush is actually fit to be a president he is as dumb as they come.  He was chosen by the others based on his bloodline.  Presidents are all chosen not elected, the illusion of voting is just that it's an illusion.  So don't get mad at what the dummy prez is doing he just being he.  They really don't need him anymore anyway, they've done enough with him that can't be changed anyway.  Your freedoms are almost completely gone.  Here's a video that might give you an idea about what really went down with 9-11 if you dare to watch.  If one can't see what's really going on after watching this then one gets what one deserves.  Ignorance is BLISS!  Enjoy!!

Bush Jr.'s heart and spirit burns with American patroism, but his cabinet appointment choices have been nothing less than poor; rife with unqualified and inept people.\n\nNot that this problem is isolated with just the White House, but historic and often tragic events during Bush Jr.'s terms have produced glaring clear evidence that other vital government operated offices our National safety depends on are rife with political brown-nosers whose ineptness adds a dangerous ingredient for a recipe of disaster.\n\nBottom line: I pray as Americans, we learn it's not very wise to elect politically empowered family members to become our President.

I Love my Country!!  I believe in my President...I may not agree with him on every issue, but unless I was President I don't think I would agree with everything ANYone did in the oval office....I also know that having Bush in office is FAR better than having ANY democrat in office!!!!

at this point in time i would say he is definitely the right person for the job! let me state for the record that i am a democrat and frankly i am appalled at the tatics of my party. bush said from the beginning of our war on terror that this different type of war would be long, costly and ugly. i fail to see where he was not correct. \n  yeah lets listen to my party that wants to cut and run, that will send a real message to the terrorists... america has no stomach for the job and can simply be waited out.\n   come on ...bin laden thought he could attack us with impunity due to our reactions to the bombings of our marines in lebanon, the uss cole, the embassy bombings etc. he further believed that we could easily be defeated because in his own words, they had defeated the world's strongest military when they drove the soviets out of afghanistan. well he was wrong then and he and his kind are wrong now.it would be a shame for our military to win all the battles and have our politics cost them the war because we don't like body counts. all i can say is that if this same point of view ruled the day in world war 2  we would all be speaking german or japanese.  how quickly we forget that on 9-11 we were attacked without provocation and had over 3,000 fellow american citizens killed.  more than in the attack at pearl harbor!!!!\n did saddam attack us on 9-11? of course not, but once the war on terror started  iraq was a likely choice to be the next area of conflict.  look at the facts...iraq continually fired on us and coalition planes enforcing the no fly zones agreed upon as a condition of saddam's surrender after us and coalition forces drove him from kuwaite under un security council mandates. he used chemical weapons on the kurds,he kicked out the un weapons inspectors and impede them from competing their u n mandated mission of locating and destroying weapons of mass destruction. he further tried to manipulate the oil for food program so that he could continue the ressurection of his military.in spite of all those clear violations and over a decade of more resolutions and extended timetables and deadlines saddam would not comply with u n mandates. so it is obvious to me that more mandates and deadlines were useless and if he was not producing wmds why did he not cooperate with weapons inspectors?\n  when bush went to the u n to outline a plan, the u n would not even enforce its own mandates... big surprise there huh? our so called allies ..particularly those in europe had no backbone or taste for this dirty war, yet even today are demanding their right to participate in the rebuilding of iraq so they can make profits at the expense of american blood! they were quite willing to leave the dictator in power on the backs of his people so they could make a buck.  really, i must ask... am i the only democrat that sees this?\n oh and as an interesting side bar   saddam plotted to assasinate the first pres. bush..that in it self was justification to remove saddam from power...i dont care what your political party is, he wanted to assasinate the president of the u s a !\n regarding legal rights of terrorists and enemy combatants..it really is simple according to geneva convention rules, if you want the protection of geneva rules you must abide by them..if you do not,you forfeit your right to claim protection under them. for example you must be a uniformed combat soldier representing a country or government, you may not hide among or attack civillians.etc.  i say the terrorists fail on those counts alone. further more in the early stages og gulf war 2, they executed american pows another clear violation of geneva rules.\n  so to think that bush is somehow wrong for spying on good americans here at home who are e mailing or making phone calls to suspected terrorists abroad is so rediculous that it defies common sense. add to that the so called mistreatment of terrorist detainees, where were all the activists screaming about

He is the worst president in the business of running a country that I have ever seen, I am 60 and go back to the Eisenhower era. I do remember Ike. He did a lot of good. The reasons that I do not like the way that Bush is running the country is his supply side economics. It has never worked, to give the top 1% of the people the tax cuts is just plain wrong. When you have a pile of boxes and you want to move them you lift from the bottom, not the top. If you lift the top box you just get one box but if you lift from the bottom they all move. I don't really understand why repuglicans don't get that. Clinton did.

It seems that Mr Bush is a very focused man - which could be a good thing, but has instead been a negative thing.  There have been people inside his administration who have tried to give him advice and he has almost categorically ignored them.  It seems that there is information that is welcomed and accepted, and then there is some information that is swept under the carpet.  I think people feel disenfranchised when the President and congress act as if we are preschool children and we are incapable of making informed decisions at all.  Most Americans are intelligent enough to take the information that is presented to us on a daily basis and form opinions and ideas.  We just wish that we felt represented and not dragged along behind whatever agenda our government decides is important.

Better than what or who? \n\nEach President faces a unique set of challenges in unique times and in many ways it is impossible to compare them.  President Bush is clearly dislike by some people almost to the point of being an obsession.  Is this dislike based on reliable facts?  It doesn’t appear to that it is.  And yet there are concerns about some of his actions.\n\nHe is doing what has to be done as President and that is, trying to protect the country from the multiple attacks it has received.  That he is doing things that might be considered by some as extra-constitutional, is true.  However, he is not the first president to do so and is far from the worse.

I believe President George W. Bush lacks good judgement because he believes God is engaged in a battle with Satan for the control of the world and that he was elected President because God chose him to use that office to fight Satan.

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.
