What do you think has been President Bush's ONE biggest mistake while in office (If anything)?

It started with stealing the first election that turned out to be an appointment. That was his first mistake. I think the biggest or the one that cost the most lives would be the Iraq war for no good reason.

I can't really say of all time, but of my life time George W Bush.  He is clearly racist and elitist and puts his own financial and political well being before the good of the nation as a whole in a way that is without precedent.

What other president has had to deal with the issues President Bush has had since taking office? The economy was in a slump, 9-11 in his first year, Katrina, the list goes on. Certainly he has made mistakes, but I don't think his mistakes are enough to warrant "worst president ever." What about democratic presidents that got the US involved in Vietnam with over 50,000 DRAFTED US servicemen dead? I am not a Bush fan by any means and I do wish we had elected a different President, but worse ever isn't fair either.

George W Bush....look at the current situations, he has caused the most damage, the most money to be spent and the most laws broken by any president in history.

Yes, and i still bring up this argument when talking politics with an avid Reagan/bush/bush fan. It is hard not to forget that Reagan plunged the national debt to levels previously unheard. But let us not forget that the economy took a horrible hit as well, with FIFTY percent of farmers(just mentioning one of the hard it economic groups) nation wide going bankrupt thanks to his trickle down economics. Lets us learn from one of the worst presidents ever and try not to vote another one in...uh...wait..damn, to late.

If he was gone 1 year ago, it might have made a difference. 3 weeks ago, the results would have been the same. Bush has no strategy other than to lie, make excuses, and blame others. He even lied about wanting to keep Rumsfeld.

President Bush has had more to deal with than most other Presidents. I think he has made mistakes but it has been a tough 6 years. I don't think any politician would have done well in this Presidency. I don't think any politician can run our country.I think the people who are capable of leading this country aren't even in politics. They are too smart to even want to be involved with the spectacle that we call a government.

Bush is by far the worst president we have ever had. Watergate was spying on the other political patry, while what Bush is doing is spying on the general public, and that is horrible.

it is worse than a huge mistake. it is a war crime. bush/rove/cheney (the real axis of evil) should be tried as war criminals for their actions in iraq and afghanistan.

Becouse Bush should have never been elected in the first place.  He put his "No child left behind" bill in place and that is exactly what it has done to our most disadvantaged youth.  There are millions of WORKING americans with unafordable or no health coverage at all.  This "war" of his is a a complete joke.  While I do suport our troops.  I think he got into it for personal reasons.  He went about it terribly and now were all paying for it!  There is people living were Katrina hit who still don't have any where to call home.  How long has it been?  Although Bill Clinton was far from perfect americans and there children were much better off!

Man, you should have seen the state of the Oval Office when my boy Bill left: pizza boxes, empty forties, condom rappers all over the place!  Don't even get me started on the Lincoln Bedroom!  Anyway, Bush had all that stuff cleaned up by the summer of 2002, so no he's not currently cleaning up Clinton's mess.

Thanks for the special mention of me in the question.  Katrina wasnt bush's fault.  Last time I check he didnt have power over the weather.  If he does, I could have done without the snow last week.  I dont see anyone going on and on about the appointment of Robert Kennedy to attorney general.  Mistakes are made.  However one should also keep in mind that the Mayor and Governor were both Democrats and both failed to call in the national guard.  As for his "faith based" decisions, pehaps we give him our support because the majority of U.S. citizens believe in those decisions.  Most of us arent in favor of the abomination known as gay marriage and many oppose the systimatic murder of unborn children by claiming its a constitutional right.  All one needs to do is look at a map of the 2004 Presidental election and the fact that many states passed marriage laws and/or amendments in that election to see how the majority of us feel.

I love how the best that most people can come up with is that he is dumb or stupid..............at least if you are going to take a position know why.  I don't agree with everything that George Bush has done.  I hate that he can't admit that we have been in Iraq for way too long or that our budget is in a major state of crisis, however, I think that he has lead this country in a direction that he though was right and that he has lead this country through some of the hardest times that we have ever had.....and if you hate President Bush so much, than maybe you will get passionate about your right to vote.

Bush is a sad case, he is so out of control that he doesn't realize it, but in his defense the lack of control is not necessarily his fault.  He has a cabinet of slimy corrupt money/power hungry friends that are influencing his decisions in a very detrimental way.

that most americans realized that Bush is wrong and how stupid the president can be despite an overwhelming lack of proof to support his stupid fears.. it makes bush human.. prone to error =D
