Are all the people that are such adamant Bush haters just wasting their breath? President Bush is in his second term and has less than three years left to serve and all they want to do is bash him. Why don't they just try to actually help instead of complaining? Bush may not be good, but he is what we have right now and complaining doesn't get things fixed, it actually makes it worse! And quit saying impeach him until you actually have a legal ground on which to stand on. Opinion is not a valid reason.\nI am not a big Bush defender or Republican, but I am really freaking sick of hearing everyone complain and then not do anything about it.

Because we have the right to exercise our freedom of speech. \n\nBush is ruining our country. Not helpin it. The cost of living is so high now, so all the lower and middle class americans are suffering. Yet all the high class folk are reeping the benefits of having Bush in power. Gas prices are a shame. The Unemployment rate is higher than it has been in decades. And you expect us just to sit here and wait it out 3 years? When are the Americans gonna stand up and say, "We've had enough?!?!?" When gas is $6 a gallon? When all of our jobs are givin to illegal immigrants. \nI am not republican or democratic. I vote for the person who is suitable to run our country. I didn't vote for a C average student. I would want someone who would benefit us. Not destroy our country. Send out our brothers and sisters out to die. Good job voters! U picked a real winner there.

Actually, I have recently taken the current Bush administration's approach with pretty electrifying results:  First, deny the accusation.  Then, quickly choose a subject to talk about that is related but does not directly address the issue.  And lastly, end my retort with a personal attack on the person doing the criticizing.  \nMy only struggle has been that because I choose my friends so specifically, there is no criticism to deal with.  No wonder he's so good at it!

I do not complain about President Bush.  I know tons of people that do, but, I feel the guy is doing the best he can.  We re-elected him to finish a job and that we must do!  We look bad when be bad mouth our own.  Yeah, I mean freedom of speech is OK and all, but we as Americans just go for the throat most of the time.  \n\nGreetings from Beautiful New York City, USA!!!

i woudl say ppl vote for him because they are misinformed or it's in there best intrest,although i have yet to meet somone benifiting from bush being in power(these people fly in private jets over us while we sleep) i will admit he would have made a better comedian than a leader(cracked jokes at last speech when prompter failed),his inclusion of faith based politics,and that sending ppl my age and yunger into battle underfunded and mom and dad having to send them armor and bullets just seems sureal but thats whats happening right now so yeah why do ppl vote for him,i've talked with a few ppl that say he knows what's what but thats a marginal few where is this majority of supporters?are they closed off from news sources using the same baracade they used on protesters to keep them out of king george's earshot...mabey they live in the same cloistered bubble he does and dont have to deal with heating costs and health coverage..it's a damn good question..mine is what does it take to impeach a president based on his conduct?

oh i agree with you there! i think he is doing the best he can being one man and having so much on his plate. the United states is having major issues especially with terrorists and wether bush was president or not, they still would have attacked us they were planning it for years and years and they hate us. i bet if a different president were in office everyone would hate him too because people love to blame someone when things go wrong but the bottom line is he is our president, the one who is fighting for us, maybe we should blame .. hmm i dont know .. the terrorists who flew planes into our buildings and killed thousands of innocent people on an ordinary tuesday morning!\noh and kia u are worried about terrorism cuz he is in office.. that is because they attacked while he was in office not because of him! the point of him not giving up the war is to keep terrorists from gaining strength again!

It is just another move in a long line of them that highlights Bush's penchant for self-righteousness.  To him, it matters not that the majority of the American people don't approve of him, his tactics, or his job performance.  Right after the mid-terms he was all welcoming and talking about working together with the Democrats.  I hoped for once he was being forthright and truthful, but lately I've realized that a leopard really doesn't change its spots.  The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior and there you have it.  For the next two years it's going to be a battle in Washington D.C.  I was stunned by his declaration that civil war is not happening in Iraq.  That man has the worst case of tunnel vision I have ever seen in a President.  It's a sure sign of egomania when someone is unable to ever admit they are wrong about anything.  Honestly, this man is the worst President I have ever witnessed in office, and I've been alive long enough to remember Nixon like it was yesterday.

Their just a bunch of idiots who dont understand anything....   Here's something funny...  next time you come across a Bush Basher, ask them a question about our president.   People are just bored, and when people get bored they form small groups, witch lead to larger groups, and by this point their stupid people in large groups...  and never under-estimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  Why is it you never hear anything good about ANY of our presidents.   Well we voted for them....  People are just bored and have nothing better to do than Bush Bash.

He's not.  Many people feel like they need someone to blame. Often, it's because of low self-esteem, and they feel better by complaining about someone else, even if it's not for a legitimate reason. However, I think people blame the president because he is the central figure of power in this country. Even though he doesn't really have total power, many people are ignorant of that fact, and for that matter, many of them CHOOSE to remain ignorant about it!  Questions like this show this blissful ignorance of all the good things he has done during his presidency.  Please don't take a one-sided view of things.  If you don't like him, then I suppose that's your choice, but you don't need to go around trying to make people hate him.  And now I step off my soapbox.

The funny thing is, Bush's rating is 29%.\n\n29%!!!!!!!\n\nEven at during a time of crisis for Clinton (with the "impeachment" stuff,) HIS approval was OUTSTANDING!!!\n\n"In the wake of the House of Representatives' approval of two articles of impeachment, Bill Clinton's approval rating has jumped 10 points to 73 percent, the latest CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll shows." ~ CNN.com\n\nEven if Bush's rating DOUBLES, it would STILL be failing. 58%. Not that he can get it that high.\n\nI wonder if it is the LOWEST a President has ever gotten since they started polling...\n\n************EDIT***************\n\nDAR claims he has a life. (See below.)\n\nIf that were the case, why is he "here:?

I am not against George Bush. He is a decent honest man. He cares about this country, both present and future. However, he is only one man and too many people want to blame him, or the government for their own stupid problems and lousy choices in life. How can anybody blame one person for all their problems. We have a huge government from local on up. On one hand people like you hate George Bush, on the other you act as if though he has the power of God. If everybody would accept responsibility for their own actions and not expect the government to solve all their problems, the country and the world would be a much better place. Why do hate him? If you live in the United States you have more opportunity than most people in the world. How is George Bush messing up your life? What are you doing to make life better in this country? I would like to hear it.

I believe those that are in office now, especially Republicans, are going to distance themselves from him, but that will be hard to do! None of my Senators were up this year, but they will be in 08!\n\nI think if they are seen as obstructive they are going to have a real problem in 08!\n\nWe threw out 2 Republican Congressman who were incumbent and had several terms in! They were in total shock! They could not believe it!!\n\nPeople still harp on Clinton's BJ and who really cares! But they try and justify a war that is not justifiable and has killed 1/4 of a million people! You can be for the war all you want, but when you have body bags coming home 365 days a year for over 3 1/2 years, and are in a war that is longer than WW II and it is getting worse, not better, people are not going to forget that!\n\nI don't think they are going to be able to hide from their votes and their support of many things that were unpopular, even among Republicans.\n\nBush isn't a scape-goat, he's the goat that they allowed too much power, too much corruption and they were rubber stamps for his policies!\n\nI loved one of our Republicans here bragging about the war on terror, which there is no such thing, and about"No child Left Behind that Bush wanted and Congress passed! The only problem was, and he didn't mention it,  they never funded it!!\n\nI'd like to see people put the country and it's people first, not their wallets!\n\nCosmic, you said the magic word: Bush! It will get you a thumbs down everytime! You are asking people to think, not be an idealog! Unfortunately they are idealogs who still don't get it!

I don't know.  I get up every day and ponder the misfortune of our wonderful country at the unmerciful hands of the Bush dynasty and their oldest buffoon. \n\nHe is going to try to block the congress on every turn.\n\nI joined impeachbush.org but no one seems to be doing anything to remove the nutter from office.\n\nI think there will be a revolt in the US at a certain stage because we cannot wait 2 more years with him in office.

It's about time.  But, his ratings have plummeted along Bush's and he needs to come clean or they will beat him up over there more than they already have.  Bush's "lap poodle" has made the other turn around about admitting to the disaster of Global Warming, so maybe he "got  religion."  If we had such candor here it would be refreshing, but that is only coming  from democrats  and conservatives like Bill Buckley who calls this war "lunacy."  But, Bush and Cheney are not interested in what we think, nor do they care.  They are sailing along with their plan for the plunder of  Iraq and the US Treasury, and it will only end when  he leaves office and all of Halliburton's contracts expire.

Honestly, Bush knows about pretty much everything going on. Now, does he act accordingly to what goes on? No. Why? Well that's the multi-billion dollar question, er, wait, multi-billion dollar war budget he made. Why focus so much time and effort on a country hundreds of miles away when your own country isn't too well off? We have people protesting soldier funerals for gods sake. WTF. And he knows about everything going on, but doesnt know what to do. So how does he react? "Well the war is going good". Honestly, f*ck Bush. He's the worst mistake in the history of the United States.

George Bush is an alright man. I dont think the world of him but i dont think nothing of him. He is the president and he makes the desicions. Not the people. They do have a say in it, but George makes all the final ones. I dont understand why people complain about him. He has done nothing to harm them and has done nothing wrong. I think he is a good president

Did you actually listen to what she had to say?  Is that what you want the Democrats to do?  Spend their time tying up the Congress with impeachment proceedings?  She's right, it's a waste of time.  There are only two years left in Bush's Administration and she's right that they would love nothing more than for the Democrats to prove they are what the Republicans have been saying all along.  Thirsting for revenge and hatred of Bush is the Dems only platform - that's what the Republicans were saying before the mid-terms.  Now you want that to be true?  Not me.  I want the war, our economy, and terrorism addressed on a bipartisan level.   There are going to be investigations into the constitutionality of many of Bush's actions, that's a given.  I hold no love for George Bush, but those thirsting for impeachment/revenge will have to find water elsewhere and I couldn't agree more.
