do you think george bush is a good president?why?

No. He has abused his power. He has lied to the people he is supposed to serve. He is self-serving and supports big business while cutting assistance to those who need it most. Jobs are being outsourced at an astounding rate under his administration. When he took office there was a budget suplus, now we have enormous deficit. He talks about keeping our nation safe while allowing illegal immigrants to enter the nation at thousands per day. He has burdened our education system with his ineffective "no child left behind" without providing the funding to support it. He has taken us to war against another country with faulty intelligence (which, of course, he was well aware). Many in his administration are corrupt and unethical. He apoints people that are not qualified for their positions. (And people call these the actions of a Christian? Not in my book.)\n\nDo I think he's a good president? I think he's the worst President we've had in my lifetime, and I've been around for awhile. Unfortunately, he will remain the President long enough to do more damage.

Bush has already done a lot of good things to US and to the world.  If he controls Mafia and terrorist activities in US definitely he can be remembered by Americans for ever.  Surely next President's actions will make Mr. Bush as the better one.  Sure his party will win back power in this election.

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 think Bush is a good president not a perfect one.  I believe he has faced more diversity than any President since FDR and we are still in good shape despite these difficulty's.  \n\nI believe that the biggest problem that he faces is that most democrats are using the difficulties as a way to divide real Americans and create a level of hostility so that they can achieve their true objective and make the US a socialist/communist and UN-Free nation.

Please go ahead and look through my responses. While I do often disagree with the President and his supporters, I often state that I feel he has good intentions and is certainly not evil or stupid.\n\nI don't think President Bush is the best, but he is certainly not the worst either.\n\nOn the other hand, when you say that I am stupid and an infidel and unChristian (from your own list of questions), you are undermining your whole idea. You start seeking out people specifically to insult them and make them feel bad, and then claim it is unfair and impolite for them to behave just as badly as you do.

No.  Honestly I've seen a lot of George W. Bush's life before he became President.  Not only is he a bad President, but he was a disastrous governor in Texas and did the same thing to their state as he has to the United States and flushed it right down the toilet, and he's a generally poor example of a human being.\n\nBefore doing that, he spent his life doing absolutely nothing except screwing up and letting other people take the blame.  Gets into the National Guard, spends his whole time there on a drinking binge, then goes AWOL for seven months?  Who cares?  It's not like we were executing other people's children for that sort of behavior at the time (well, we actually were, but not the RIGHT KIND OF PEOPLE'S children, and that's the important thing to remember).  Gets busted for drunk and disorderly?  Boys will be boys!  You're not supposed to remember that's something that usually ruins the lives of your average day folk, after all.  Mis-invests public money in failed efforts to find oil in a state where people are literally tripping over the stuff in the streets?  Daddy's friends can take care of it.  S&L scandal loses 90 million?  Oh gosh, not his fault.  Bail out time.  Plunges Texas from its best economic times straight into the worst recession in its history?  That has to be the last guy's fault, you know... everyone loves me.\n\nBe offended if you like the guy, but you have to ignore common sense to review the man's record and think he should be allowed to run a 7-11, much less an entire country.\n\nThe bottom line on what went wrong is that an incompetent man who never should have been allowed to make a serious bid for the office of President was swept into it, and did what all incompetent men do.  He screwed up.  What continued to go wrong was that he ended up in the one job where no one could feasibly fire him for it and the people were too apathetic to collectively afford themselves of the opportunity to do it, so he just kept screwing up, and kept screwing up, and kept screwing up... and when it came time for people to decide whether or not he should be stopped, he hired some very clever people to distract the public from what a poor job he did just long enough to let him keep his job because, apparently, he WANTED to keep screwing up, and keep screwing up, and keep screwing up for reasons unknown.\n\nI'm afraid the state the country is in, and the President's "lowest in the history of the United States" approval ratings, are both the fault of the same two things:\n\n1)  A man who refuses to take the advice of wiser people even when it's mind-numbingly apparent he has no idea what's going on or what to do about it, because he has visions of ruling the world; and\n\n2)  A country of people who allow him to keep doing it.\n\nMaybe instead of voting for looks and a bit of charm, we should try voting on who has the best grasp of the issues, who demonstrates the best ability to lead, and whose track record demonstrates the most competence for the job they're applying for.  It might just avoid some of these problems in the future.\n\n\n\nP.S.-- Oh, and for the record GWB didn't manage any of the things BassCatcher ascribes to him.  His college grades were lackluster, he wasn't responsible for winning his elections (quite a few advisers his father handed down to him were... and whatever else you care to say about Bush Sr, the man was awfully bright and hired good help), he didn't accomplish more than 300 million people by being the only one out of them who could have been elected President since most people, quite a few much more solidly qualified than him (even in the conservative base) don't aspire to that job, and the bulk of evidence indicates he wasn't elected either time in any case since in both elections reviews by the state of Florida found evidence of massive voter fraud (and in both elections losing Florida wou

George W. Bush is the Best President Ever

I believe President Bush is not the best public speaker. Maybe you could even say he is bad. I don't think that is a reflection of his intelligence and truely I don't believe anyone could draw that conclusion solely on how he presents himself. I believe everyone here including myself is not in a position to say since none of us know him personally. I can say that he was educated at some of the best schools in the world. Yale University, bachelor's degree, history, Master of Business Administration from Harvard Business School. If I had to guess, I would say he is intelligent.\n\nHistory will be the judge, 50yrs from now everyone who has put down this administration will see for themselves how truely stupid they were at the time.

George Bush is So STUPID...he thinks he's actually a good, moral man and not a Hillbilly, murderous warmongering, tree-slaying Thug.

great, yes he could win the nomination, although that depends on his wife Elizabeth's health; he is a good choice because he talks about the good in America, the hope for a better future, college for all students who want to work hard and attend,, he speaks well, doesn't read from a script, tells it like it is, with a positive message,, a desire to unite a divided America,,  refreshing after listening instead to the Rove-Bush focus on evil and fear,, criticizing the media for printing a story about  the terrorists assets,, something the Bush team and Homeland Security has talked about many times,, their rhetoric is getting tiresome,,\nI sometimes wonder what it would take for citizens to stand up and say  "we are sick and tires,and are not going to take it anymore."

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

While I had my problems with Clinton, trade issues, especially, he was intelligent, capable, eloquent and cared about people. Bush has none of those qualities.\n\nClinton also reversed 12 years of deficit spending and created a 7 trillion dollar surplus. Bush wasted it in the space of about 2 years.

Even as a conservative, I say he is in no way the best we have had at President. But also, he is far from the worst (Nixon, Carter, Hoover, Clinton, McKinley, etc, all worse).\n\nHe's done good, but he has also made poor decisions, as all leaders do. I'd rank him as slightly above average.

An excellent president,I think the best president ever.He is smart,wise and he have the guts to do big things.BUSH FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!
73776
yes!!  \n\nTake a look at President Reagan.  He was given so much critisism for Iran Contra, Evil Empire, and Star Wars.  But look now, he's revered as a great man who caused the collapse of communism.  It's all about sticking to your beliefs and I think that's exactly what President Bush is doing.  There's always going to be critics.  But the smart people, the majority do see President Bush as doing a good  job.

It depends on which George Bush you are talking about. For George H.W. Bush, I think that George H.W. Bush was a good leader for the country but was not a strong leader like Ronald Reagan. As for George W. Bush, I voted for him twice and although I do approve of his leadership and his decision to go to war with Iraq and Afghanistan, I think that President Bush (the current one) needs to focus on issues at home including improving education because during the 2000 Presidential Election, he said that education was his top priority and I do not know if that is still his number one priority.
