Finally a republican among the mob of idiots! Viva Bush! \nThey just need someone to blame for everything...like hurricane katrina for example.

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.

It is a knee jerk reaction from the liberals to hate President Bush;)\n\nThough I do not like everything my President is doing, I do like him and I know he is a good Christian man doing the best he can in a very difficult job.

Bush is an awful president and it's shameful to see so many people who like him. \n\na couple of reasons to hate him: \n\n1- He had Bin Laden cornered and had the resources necessary to find him wherever but then he decided to go to Iraq for no valid reason and he is not even trying anymore to bring the greatest criminal to custody. \n\n2- Bush does not appoint people based on their abilities.  Look at Michael Brown at FEMA, his supreme court nominees, etc.  He gives jobs to his friends regardless of the fact they are incompetent for the position.

Yes, you have taken leave of your senses.  Bush is the president of the United States.  He's commander in chief of the most powerful military in the world.  He shouldn't be treated like a normal person because normal people don't have the power to blow up the world several times over.  We can't let him get away with things just to protect is feelings.  If he didn't want the job he wouldn't be president.  It's not really a job you can get without really wanting it.  And the humiliation and ridicule comes with the job.  If he didn't know that going in he also doesn't know how much we hate him.  Besides, he's earned those low approval ratings.  Would you feel bad for a murderer going to jail?  Think about how many deaths Bush is responsible for.  If you ask me, he's getting off easy.

No I don't like president Bush. It's not him as a person. It is him as a leader.  Maybe he believes in God, and wants to save unborn babies.  Maybe he is otherwise a great guy but that doesn't mean he knows what he is doing in the way of leading a country.  Perhaps Bush coveted ,only, the idea of being president.  He wanted to follow in his daddy's footsteps, and be a great and powerful man.  Now he has what he wanted and doesn't know what to do with it.  He's like a teenager who just got his license and now wants to drive everywhere for no reason at all except for the fact that he CAN.  He figured "Well,... I have all this military power at my disposal.  I want to have some fun with it before I go".  Like a little excited kid playing make believe with the nation. His motives aren't as much for the good of the world as they are for is own childish enjoyment.  Sadly many Americans bought into him.  People have always had problems with Americans and probably always will, but with George W. Bush the world really has lost what respect it had for the U.S.

I know!  I've noticed that too.  Most of the people I know HATE Bush, his ratings are low, and the Congress that supports him had a recent 16% approval rating.  I even know some moderate Republicans that voted Democrat this year.\n\nYet people still say that "liberals are idiots" and "Bush is great."  Don't they realize that most of America and practically ALL of the world disagree with them?  Yet they still act all high and mighty.\n\nQuite a god complex they have, isn't it?\n\nBUSH SUCKS!!

We could do hours on this subject.  But it boils down to this:\n\nIf you are one of the many who HATE George Bush with a passion, you will see everything as bad and all of it as his fault.\n\nIf you are one of the many who LOVE George Bush with a passion, you will see everything as good and all of it due to his leadership.\n\nBut if you are one of the middle group who simply preferred George Bush to John Kerry or Al Gore in the last two elections, you will see some things as good, others as bad and much of it not under the immediate control of the chief executive.\n\nThe fact is that politics have become so negative, so biased in favor of a predisposed point of view, that most people find themselves just parroting the talking points of "their side". (And BOTH sides have talking points, believe me).\n\nOur president is NOT the legislative branch and he is NOT the judicial branch of government.  But, he does have access to the "bully pulpit" and as such, he should be helping to lead public opinion, NOT "respond to it". (George Bush is only "OK" at this). \n\nOne of the areas where the president MUST demonstrate leadership is as Commander in Chief of the military.  When you are president and our citizens are attacked, as they were on 9/11/01, you must act.  Not blindly strike out, but take action (militarily if need be) to protect our country.  George Bush did that, first by removing the Taliban in Afghanistan which was a safe harbor for Al Qaeda and then by deposing Saddam Hussein for possessing (we ALL believed) and using (we all KNOW) WMD's.  \n\nIt's also hard to deny that Saddam's open and aggressive anti-American, anti-Israel, anti-Kuwait, anti-Iran adventurism played a big part in our decision to depose him.  He had already demonstrated a willingness to use his military and WMD's (if he had them).  And he unquestionably (albeit passively) allowed terrorists to operate freely in Iraq.  \n\nAnd yes...he threatened the stability of the area and the world's oil supply.  It's not "just about oil"...but oil surely played a part in our thinking.\n\nWhere George Bush and his defense department and his allies (mainly Great Britain) were wrong was in their assessment of what resources - time, money and personnel would be needed to truly have a "mission accomplished".\n\nSo now we have Americans' short memory of the horror and national unity of purpose after 9/11, coupled with the media's fixation on every negative (and Iraq is a BIG negative) and the political "out party" smelling possible big gains in the mid-term elections of '06 and the presidential election of '08.  \n\nThis alignment of forces causes even reasonable people to see everything as wrong.  (It's not)\n\nI guess I'd close by saying that most people have some underlying agenda that goes a lot deeper than the issue that they're discussing (or criticizing).  It's hard to examine all the issues and form independent judgments about each.  The temptation to pile on is too great... \n\n(Especially if you had your mind made up before you started to think about all this).

I HATE HIM. \n\nDon't listen to the poor brainwashed Americans.\nIt is a great question as it shows youm what the evil propaganda has done to their minds.\nTrying to convince an American to dislike Bush is like TALKING TO A WALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I hate Bush with a passion but I cant knock him for what he has been able to accomplish.  \nHe was smart enough to understand that he needed to focus his attention toward the least educated population of the country.\nHe needed to get the......... \n"LETS BOMB THEM ARABS, USA IS #1, JESUS LOVES ME" \ntype of voter on his side. \nSo he could tells his lies to the retards of the country and also preach JESUS love to the rest.\nAnd the rich will get the HUGE contracts in Iraq!\n\nWith this plan... he won!  You can win on stupid!\nBUSH is proof!

the gallup poll of late states that 59% of americans disapprove of bush's job performane.\n\nthere are no scientific polls on how many people think he sucks, but if you factor in other countries, those that intensely dislike bush would be over a billion, in my estimation.

Though I'm not fond of Bush, you have the right to feel the way you do, you just have to develope a thick skin cause when it comes to politics, it's a cut throat game.  Besides, only history will tell if he was good or bad, & by then we'll have new people to bash.

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.

I have an idea. Why don't you think of a REAL question. This makes you look verry unintelligent. Like a board child who wants to participate in the grown-up's conversation, but dosn't have enough knowledge to do so. Think of all the reasons why you hate Bush, and instead of just calling him names, pick one of those reasons and ask a question about it.

You guys just don't get it. It is not about hate. It is about public policy. In just about every policy decision he has made he has demonstrated either clueless ignorance, craven indifference, laziness, outright lying, or gutless pandering to line the pockets of his cronies.\n\nI don't hate him; I pity him. But I do hate what he has done to the country. We deserve better than an incompetent, ignorant, clueless, dishonest, greedy, part-time president.\n\nIt is all about choices. For some reason, George Bush just cannot stop making the wrong ones. I'm with Newt Gingrich (imagine that!), who said last month that the Democrats' slogan for the 2006 midterm elections should be "Had enough?"\n\nI for one have certainly had enough. If you haven't, maybe you aren't really paying attention.
