Republicans: Is there anything that is Bush's fault?
367430
As A Republican\nYes there is a lot that is Bushs fault.  The large deficit.  Medicare.  Our failing school systems.  However, you must look at the state govs.  My state is run by a Democrat.  She ran deeper into debt in her first month or two in office than Bush did.  So Michigans falling apart also at the hands of Granholm.  One thing that really annoys me about Bush although I stand behind him on his decisions is the fact that he dresses and talks like a cowboy.  Yet if you compare him to the Cowboy Code written by Gene Autry he is not and will not be a Cowboy in my eyes in this lifetime.

i agree with the hydra comment. yet the RNC is about 100 times worse because it has now been hijacked by a radical, non-conservative group who is drilling this country into the ground. just today cheney makes a suggestion he has little power -- nothing could be further from the truth regarding a VP who many say is actually the one running the country. \n\nFor this reason, the president should not be blamed for all the failures of the administration; in many ways he is simply a figurehead. there are many virtues of conservative and republican viewpoints, but there is no room to hear any of them, democrats meanwhile are simply working to win back enough power to impeach the president and vp and initiate a full investigation of the scandal of this administration declaring war on Iraq. as bad as politicians are generally in washington, anything would be better than what we have now. and it will never be enough to just replace the president; we must get rid of the neo-conservatives for good.

Yes, he gave them the concrete wrongdoing many Democrats based their campaigns on, even more than Bush at some points.\n\nWithout him, it would have been a lot harder for the Dems to point their fingers at the Bush Administration.

Without so much as an effort, he makes Republicans look bad. The tragic thing is that he also makes all Americans look bad to the rest of the world. Bush is an idiot, a simpleton, and a dimwit.\nHe can't form a complete sentence without stammering, and the vile events he's caused in this world will take men of greater intelligence and acumen decades to undo (if, indeed, all the damage can actually be undone).              -RKO-

In place of Bush i would ask the American education system be fixed, so i can understand some people's frigging questions!\n\nOther than that, i would blame Cheney and Rice too.

At least you recognize the Republican congress is pretty crappy, in spite of your sarcasm, dishonest and uneducated assertions, and bias.\n\nBush hasn't overspent?  How about that record deficit?  How about record national debt, the worst in history, including both world wars?\n\nIs taking back the exhorbitant tax cuts Bush gave to his wealthy contributors, and thus reducing the deficit, "raising" taxes?  That's like saying a store raises prices every week after a sale.\n\nCitizenship for illegal aliens? Isn't that EXACTLY what Bush is trying to do?  YES, it IS!  How else can he get all that cheap labor for his corporate buddies?\n\nRuin our efforts in Iraq?  Can they be any more bungled??  Besides, our illustrious President has already Proclaimed "Mission Accomplished" in Iraq, so it's all over, isn't it?  (Tell that to the brave Americans who are dying every day because of his "efforts" in Iraq.)\n\nAll they've done for six years is to criticize??!!  That's all that Bush's rubber-stamp Republican controlled congress has let them do!  They do follow the law and the rules, after all (not change them for their own convenience as this Republican congress has done repeatedly).\n\nRepublicans talking about Democrats not having a plan is just ridiculous.  Talk about the pot calling the kettle black!  Like the Republican plan has worked so well in Iraq and after Katrina?  I'd rather start over without a plan and create a new one than to "stay the course" on the road to disaster.  Seems the only thing the Republicans can plan well by themselves is a coordinated mudslinging attack on anyone who opposes them.\n\nThis nation desperately needs Democrats to gain office, not because Republicans are bad, or because they are better politicians the Republicans, they certainly aren't.  We need a Democratic congress to restore balance of power and reign in this megalomaniac President.  Without that there is no telling how much further damage he can do to our nation.\n\nGod save America!

Those of you claiming that Prof Adam is saying these things are all Bush's fault by calling it the Summer of Bush, He never said it was Bush's direct fault, so maybe you're seeing something and believe it is eh?  And yes these things are directly Bush's fault, but as the President it is his job to repair them.  Lying to the American people, spying on them and starting a war in the wrong country (Note: War ALWAYS raises gas prices) is not the best way to repair things.\n\nIn any case, yes it's going to be another Summer or Bush.  Sure others have had corruption in the past, thing is, they either didn't get caught or didn't end of using the lies to the public to start a war.  Clinton I would say is guilty of the opposite lie, Not telling us enough of what is going on.  Bush makes up stuff to tell us instead.  I can't speak on Enviro Pollution cause I haven't heard anuything new on it but as far as the rest, yeah it'll happen.  Then expect some damage control right around November.

Not by any objective standard.  \n\nThe follies, crimes, and lies of this administration are too numerous to post in this little box.  There is a website, which I've included below, which lists 525 reasons why Bush has been an abject failure, organized into various categories for your browsing convenience.

Oh, there's nothing wrong with Republicans. Not real ones, anyway. The Republican Party of today has been infected with a problem: not Conservatism, but extreme Conservatism. It's only the Neocons, as they are also called, who still support Bush, depsite everything he has done, or lacked to do. It's not Cons I have a problem with, it's sheep.

No if it is good it is the Republicans doing, if it is bad it is Clinton and the Democrats fault.

Bush has already tried to blame the Democrats for his failed Immigration reform, despite his party having control of both houses of congress.\nI think they will try to blame it on any Democrat that is handy: Governors, Mayors, Congress, and if all else fails: Clinton.

Are you blaming this on Bush because you cannot find reason to blame it on the clouds?

You're right, President Bush cannot be blamed for everything.  Democrats voted for us to go to war too...and I still don't think they were completely wrong (even though my own husband is leaving in a couple of weeks...).  Gas prices?  Not the President's fault.  They're higher in Europe.  The economy?  President Clinton was handed an excellent economy, which is proven to be trickle-down economics from both Reagan's time in office, as well as Bush Sr.  President Bush was given an economy that was destined to break down, just like Harding.  We're lucky it hasn't led us into the next Great Depression.  Everything that can be done, is being done.\nGood job asking a great question!

No one knows that because the media won't tell that story.  The media control what people know and what they don't know.  It's a conspiracy, pure and simple.  Bush did everything he was supposed to do in New Orleans and Nagin and that stupid bitch governor sat around and tried to figure out how to look composed and in charge.\n\nNevertheless, the media has everyone convinced that it was all Bush's fault.

People would have blamed Bush for not retaliating.

No. I feel that his cronies and his staff do. Bush is merely a puppet. His cronies pull his strings and Bush moves to their whims. He is at fault because as the head man he should be asking questions and I don't think he is bright enough to do this. In fact, his stupidity is what made him appealing to the Republican party. He is a mindless puppet who marches to do whatever his cronies want. He is not bright enough to ask questions or know what questions to ask.
