How many believe that Bush will actually step down at the end of his term?

It's good to see some people here opening their eyes. However he still has 1 1/2 years to destroy everything... I move for impeachment on the grounds of committing war crimes, waging an unjustified war, damaging the American reputation world wide, invasion of a country with no proof of wrong doing, a disregard for intelligence stating that there were no WMD's in Iraq, and using fear of terrorism and disasters to try and hold office. Pry those eyes open people and join me in creating awareness of Bush and his crooked politics. Why do you think most countries don't like Americans anymore? Because they get more of the real story. Do you think Bush will let our news broadcast information on how much of a criminal he is? HELL NO! It is our duty as American Citizens, and as a Capitalist society to make sure that we are not the aggressors! Muslims do not attack us because they are jealous of our way of life. They attack us because we are forcing our way of life on them, and using torture and fear to justify our "Lawful" actions. That is called Fascism, and it was supposed to die with WW2. \n\nIgnorance is your choice in this country.. please don't choose to ignore the people dying in other countries to push democracy, when democracy is not what the people in that country strive for. Who are we to oust a government, even if they harm their own people. History has shown that when the people are ready, they will lead a revolution and make the necessary changes to secure the success of their country in the world. If we are to continue as a world power it is our responcibility to make sure we do not endorse negativity and oppression.

Hopefully congress will grow a set of balls and Impeach him for all his lies etc. If not thank God we only have 2 yrs left before he is out Let's hope the next election is not as rigged as the last 2   and that the bush sheep finally wake up  and don't vote for a Bush clone

Good question.  If so many people don't think he's doing a good job as president, doesn't our constitution allow us to get rid of him?  I don't think as many people disapprove of him as it may seem.  The media sure makes it seem that way though.  I think people just say they disapprove of him because it's the social norm.  I might not agree with everything Bush does, but I trust that he always does what he thinks is best for our country.  And who can blame him for that?

Some likely came to their senses. Others are unprincipled bandwagon jumpers who go where the political wind blows. And the remainder are currently residing in mental institutions, incarcerated or now deceased.\n\nThe sensible ones are doubtless angry and disappointed about all the lies and scandals (some only just now coming to light; others as yet unrevealed). Aside from the dread true believers, no one could possibly view this despicable president and his criminally corrupt administration as anything but an abject failure.\n\nThis hateful man and his ignominious presidency will be reviled in history books until the end of time. We have never had a worse president and can only hope we will never see such as this ever again.\n\nP.S. How twisted is it that just over 1/3 of the electorate actually still APPROVE of this monkey and his immoral policies? Scotty, beam me aboard.

Depends on how you look at it.\nI think he will be as influential within the White House as he has been for 6 years.\nHowever, given the fact that the administration is facing a Democratic controlled House and Senate for the final 2 years, I think it's safe to say that the White House as a whole will be less influential in what happens in and to the U.S.

Neither. The only thing that will happen is bush will put another person who thinks like Rumsfeld in his place. There will be no change in that aspect. However, the person taking his place has to deal with a Democratic Congress, so now he needs to come up with an exit strategy. Rumsfeld didn't feel like dealing with it. That's why he "cut and ran"...

Yes it does that is why more than 70% of Americans dislike him. If his ratings keep falling someone may find a way to impeach him before this is all over. The republican party sure looks bad at this point and if he saves a pullout for the end of his term isn't going to help the republican party.Alot of republicans are southern rednecks who can't spell or read let alone vote.

No, i think he will retire at the end of this yr...

Yes I think Bush is gonna hold on for the full term. We the people are continuing to hand over more and more of our liberties in the name of safety. Were afraid of terrorism. Were afraid of crime. Hell were even afraid of people who have thoughts that aren't dictated by the media or the government. Shame really.. I remember a time when we were free to speak our mind no matter how unpopular our thoughts.Once our forefathers thought freedom was worth dieing for now we cheapening the deaths of those who died for freedom by giving it away so trivially in the name of safety.

Bush's support is currently in the mid 30s. It has consistently gone down his whole time in office though, so it will probably drop further.

I doubt it because he's not up for re-election.\n\nHow do we help him make the "right" decision? We elected him after he had already served for 4 years, so we knew what his policies would be. He's doing badly in the polls mainly because people are still getting killed in Iraq. I don't think he's going to change his policy on that.

Yes.  But once President Bush is out of his term, and all the Bushs, then you can depend on the truth.

I believe it will serve as a signal that people are tired of the current administration and its policies; especially on the War in Iraq. Those who support Bush's policies may want to be prepared to lose their seat.

I would believe him before ANY one in this administration.\nMaybe he would.

Considering exit polls showed more people were concerned with the recent scandals than with the war, probably not...but it might have been closer.\n\nI have to admit I'm surprised to see changes happening so quickly though... apparently Dubya is not actually a president-shaped cd player with 'stay the course' stuck on infinite repeat after all. I mean this man has been beating his head against this particular brick wall for years now... while some 6 billion or so people throughout the world said 'Uh, buddy... you fu.cked up and this is NOT actually working' and all it took was a thorough official trouncing of the GOP to get him to realize that maybe SOMEbody ought to be looking for actual solutions. So I guess he's not entirely brain dead after all, but it still bears mentioning that my eleven year old niece was able to figure out that Iraq wasn't going very well quite some time ago.\n\nOf course it remains to be seen if anybody can really pull our collective American butts out of this mess, but at least we have some hope.

It'll still be Bush.  His term doesn't end until January 20, 2009.

It will take years to straighten out the mess that Bush has started, indeed the next president will have his or her work cut out for them. I think the only hope is to hold Bush in check until his term is up and the only way to do that is to elect democrats to the house and senate this november.
