I have no opinion on it. President is a very tough job, and people take it more lightly than it is by simply bashing him. I don't necessarily agree with everything he does, but still, if being president were easy, more people would do it.
Update:Wow, you know, 3 months from now, you guys will be saying the same thing about Barack Obama.

yes. i hate how people are so quick to bash at him. i'd love to see their attempts at being president! i hate how people have so easily forgotten what wonderful things Bush has done for our country. Think of all the good things he did around 9-11, and how he has kept our country safe since then. honestly, i think a lot of people just say, "i hate bush!" cause everyone else is, without realizing what they're saying. trust me, obama will be about 100 times worse
p.s. i agree w/ your comment about obama. a couple of months from now, people will say, "what have we done?!"
It was more the government itself then bush, he sucked at speaking so people used that as an ex cuss. they just wanted someone to blame. Bush could of had really good ideas but the branches could have turned them down see what I mean? in a way the president takes the fault for who really is to blame. if a middle school kid could figure all that out why can't 99% of america? lol
Being an avid student of history, as well as our wonderful Constitution, I'll keep it as simple as possible: On a scale of 1 to 43, from George Washington, who was our first, to George Dubaya, our 43rd, without a doubt his rating will be 43, with 1 being the higest possible. And this isn't bashing by any means, just the pure, simple logical truth of the matter which will be verified by future historians when the story of this era is written.
There was a poll and 70% of people who hated Bush didn't even know why.... I think Bush was OK, he was just president in the wrong time and didn't have enough control over things because the liberals would veto everything that would've helped our country. Either their stupid or trying to sabotage the Republican Party... Apparently it worked because now we have Obama which 79% of his voters were either uneducated and going for the popularity because he's younger, or they were black... no offense, just we need to pick our president wisely from now on.
He was VERY underrated! I hate how everyone blames the president. He doesn't control everything that happens in the country. They ARE the ones that voted for him.
What ever happened to the republic our forefathers wanted though?
"Democracy is the most vile form of government... democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention, have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property, and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths."
-James Madison
Edit: I forgot to mention that ignorant voters in a democracy can make our country just as bad as a dictatorship. Many voters were ignorant because of the reasons they were voting for Barack Obama. While many were educated, many were not. Same goes for John McCain supporters.
Sorry. I ranted a little.
Edit 2: (To whoever TD'd me.) Yea, go ahead and thumbs down me. I bet you thought our forefathers WANTED a democracy. A woman asked Benjamin Franklin if we had a monarchy or a republic after he signed the Declaration of Independence. "Republic, if you can keep it." is what he answered. Democracy=Mobocracy.
What you said about Barack Obama is very true.
I think Bush is a decent man...maybe presidency wasn't the job for him.
He even admitted some of his mistakes.
=]
bush i'm not asserting the different a million cuz he not assume to be it and that i observed a video on techniques of menica of him sticking his midsection finger up and that comparable video on an internet site yet i forgot what it grew to become into called
I was tough 2 respect any pres. Even though Bush wasn't perfect, I thought he was decent.
At least we all survived under his control.
But being president is difficult, and no one would want 2 b as ridiculed as he was.
I think after Bill (The previous president) he was great I imagine what 9-11 happened and he wasn't in office I think he did exceptionally well
i think more peopled be president if it didnt require millions and millions of dollars to even get on an election ballot let alone stand a chance.
no i dont think he did a good job, hes helped strip americans of their rights through the patriot act and hes alienated the country from the rest of the world, but he isnt the only person everyone should be blaming.
