Is there anyone out there who actually thinks that George Bush has been great as a president?

Question

lol I sure as h**l dont! but just wondering if anyone actually does??

Answer 1

I do, but I am a right wingnut!

EEEEK  MOONBATS !!!!

Answer 2

h**l no!!!!!!! he's a mass murderer !!

Answer 3

Yes he sucked the biggest @$$! Do you know what else? So did congress.    

Answer 4

He is certainly not the best President, but I think that history will see him in a much better light than many see him today.

I think your perception of him is altered by your age and responsibility. If you are responsible for a family and have to work to support them, you probably see Bush a lot more favorably than if you are a child (which many on this site are) or a young adult with limited economic responsibilities. Sadly these types of voters become indoctrinated by ultra-liberal professors at University or are swayed by the cult of celebrity.

People complain now about the war and the spending, they didn't complain when he responded quickly and decisively after 9/11.

Too bad people have such short attention spans.

Answer 5

I know it's really popular to hate on Bush. And let me be honest - he's certainly not my favorite president of all time, but I don't hate him. He didn't use his veto enough, he increased spending too much, don't like the Patriot Act (but I blame all of Congress for that, too), and he adopted the wrong strategy for the war (he should have listened to McCain), but I think he's right on sometimes. I didn't vote for him in '04, but I just can't muster hate for him.

Answer 6

I think he is doing fine. If you think you can do better than lets see your name on the ballots.

Answer 7

d**k Cheney and Join McCain do, not very many other people do though otherwise he wouldn't have the lowest ratings in U.S. history.  

Answer 8

Believe it or not there are actual people out there..it's scary.

Answer 9

and on behalf of WORKING americans everywhere, i/we surely hope you enjoy your bill of goods  you bought hook line and sinker from the pelosi/reid regime.  YOUVE GOT ONE RIGHT HERE! to answer your question.

lol that GENIUS.

Answer 10

I think he has been good.  He could have been great but got sidetracked into too much wasteful spending.

History will judge the war on terror very positively.  I know that is impossible for the left to see now but it is a fact.  It's not much different than Lincoln who was despised during the Civil War but gradually became a beloved President as people realized that maintaining the Union was the correct decision.  

Eventually he will settle into the 2nd tier of Presidents below the great ones like Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Roosevelt and Reagan but above the do nothing place holders like Clinton or Coolidge who were popular at the time due to technology driven economic booms but who did nothing of lasting value.

Answer 11

great is a difficult word to live up to. He's done a fine job under the worst of circumstances. 9/11 could have had lasting effects, but here we are, 7 years later, and the liberals have already forgotten the lessons. Luckily Bush didn't forget.

Answer 12

Great? That term is subjective. But, unlike Clinton, Bush was a strong enough leader to take on Muslim fundamentalists and no one can deny he's made our country safer since 9/11.

You're obviously too young to remember the days of Ford & Carter where inflation was at 13% and unemployment was at a record high not seen since the depression.

It's easy to dislike Bush. He's been smeared in the media for years because of an unpopular war, not to mention he's probably the worst public speaker to ever hold office.

So, he won't go down as the greatest President, but certainly not the worst.

Answer 13

Good, not great.

Answer 14

He will go down inl history as a great one for protecting this nation from further attack.

Answer 15

There hasnt been a great president since Ronald Reagan. But considering what Bush has had laid at his doorstep the past 8 years, I dont think he has done bad at all. What folks keep forgetting is..he cant make hardly a move without the say so of congress, so anyone wants to lay blame for the mess it may be in now..blame the congress and senate.

Answer 16

Given that he has a 32% approval rating, I'm guessing about 15% actually think he did a "great" job.

Answer 17

I'm not a big Bush fan, because of what he did to our economy, but believe it or not I think the war in Iraq may be the one thing he DID do right.

You just can't leave crazies like that to their own devices.

Answer 18

hahaha i sure as h**l hope not! even republicans have to be smarter than that!

george bush=worst president EVER!

Answer 19

I do. How many times has the terrorist attacked USA Soil since 9/11?

See, it speaks volumes!!

Answer 20

One would have to be blind, deaf and dumb to even think that Bush was competent.

Although those who run Haliburton and big oil think that he's the greatest president ever, because they are making billions at the American taxpayers' expense.

No wonder the war continues.     Why hasn't the administration made Iraq pay for the rebuilding of their country and the cost of the war out of their own enormous oil revenues?      Why does the American taxpayer have to foot the bill?    

McCain has vowed to continue Bush's policies on the road to ruin pursued for these past eight years.

Bush's father was a lousy president, also.    His,"read my lips, no new taxes," statement before he got elected, and then raising them anyway after he was elected has been largely forgotten.     And then, in the first war with Iraq, which we won, he left Saddam Hussein in power.     That's sort of like leaving Adolph Hitler in power after we won WWII.      It has cost us billions, if not trillions of dollars.

No, I for one have had enough of the Bush presidencies, and I hope the American public isn't stupid enough to ever consider another Bush or McCain to ruin what's left of America.
