How would you rate President Bush's foreign policies and international relations?
926393
The legacy of Bush's foreign policy is a complete failure.\nHe has proven time and again to be obtuse and incapable of understanding intricate international political winds. He has proven on many occasions to be caustic on the sensitivities of other Nations, only willing to negotiate if it serves his interest even at the expense of the American people. America is an important country and her people do not necessarily reflect the ideological path he has chosen. The next president will have many fences to mend.

My only problem with President Bush is that he can't run for a third term.  I think he is a wonderful President.  Greatness is not appreciated in its own time.  Neither Mozart nor Shakespeare were considered geniuses in their day.\n\nIn fifty years time, the history books will record that George W. Bush (and his close friend Tony Blair) rid the world of a dangerous evil.  Peaceful democratically elected Middle Eastern governments will erect statues of him honoring him as the man who brought peace and freedom to their troubled land.\n\nI would like to see him veto a spending bill, but has anyone noticed that our economy is doing quite well.  There hasn't been another terrorist attack on our soil.  Perhaps this is because he is intercepting the cell phone calls of terrorists.

No. I think he has done a pretty good job. He has made one big mistake. Supporting Bush in the Iraq war. Everything else has been ok.

HECK YES!\n\nHe passes the AMERICAN TEST of POLITICS: Morals, Taxes, Defense, etc.\n\nOnly one problem with him (which I'm sure he would correct in a third term: IMMIGRATION).\n\nWith his illness kicking in though - we couldn't allow a fourth term.\n\nI love Nancy!\n\nAli Akbar

I think he will get  his praise in later years. He made some important steps to give America the best defense. For example his first year in office he pulled us out of a anti ballistic missile treaty that didn't allow for us to have killer satellites.

None - There were a bunch, but Bush reversed about 50 years of progress by pulling the USA out. \n\nI figure <and I'm only figuring> that we will never ever ever ever reach full international agreements. If you mean only the countries that are most likely to try to bomb others, like Iran or the USA, we will have to wait for some competent leaders with competent foreign policies. \n\nDon't get me wrong, though, many countries have made agreements. But I think many people will agree with me that without the USA in peace agreements with you, there is probably no point in attempting world peace.\n\nEDIT: I hope this wasn't a question in your homework. Don't use this :P

More than likely no, right now the only thing that the President is concerned with is the war in Iraq and other such issues, and it is not very high on any other countries to do list either.

My current belief is that the president is not smart enough to realize what he's doing.\n\nOh how I'd absolutely LOVE to send his ass overseas

He has run our economy into the groud.  Ruined foreign relations all over the world. Started an unneccesary war.  And wants to start another one very soon (Iran).  So I would say NAY. Also, Bush probably doesn't even realize that Peru is about to elect a President that is anti-American and wants to start wars with South American countries.

Although I think Bush is a poor president in key areas, DJ seems to have some really good points.  I'll acknowledge that Bush is a man of action and that many of his actions especially right after 911 were on target.   However,\n\nWhen it comes to his overall leadership, he is missing several of the most important leadership qualities.  #1: Communication skills.  Without any doubt he will go down as the anti-thesis of Reagan who was our "great communicator"  Bush couldn't convince the devil: the qualities of an airconditioner, and he's from Texas.  He makes everyone I know cringe when he speaks - even my conservative friends can't stand this fatal flaw of his presidency.  \n\n2nd - he makes up his mind quickly and never changes it - good quality after 911 for a while, but he can't adapt and overcome.  When he's wrong - he won't admit it - ever.  (No real plan to win the peace in Iraq after the regime was overthrown - and 3 years later - still no real plan -  not willing to work with the U.N. peacekeeping forces as a legitimate transfer of power in the region)\n3rd flaw - he's appointed some inefficient lack luster people to key positions in the government - FEMA, Treasury, Attorney General, CIA, Defense, State Dept. and the Supreme Court, to name a few apparently unimportant areas.  Many of these people couldn't run a horse show let alone a key gov't agency.\n\nIt's time for new leadership - impeachment is very unlikely.  Lets get someone next time that at least knows how to speak English clearly- and that has true leadership qualities.

I think "Dubya" is a terrific president. He has done a lot for the safety of the nation from foreign countries, unlike Clinton. Our gov't is always shown to be the bad guy, but that's because of the liberal media. Conservatives are condemned for ridding the world of the evils, but liberals are praised for sparing them, consequently causing more turmoil. I don't really want to get started, so I'll cut it short. President Bush is wonderful.

I think Bush is a great guy, just lacking the wisdom necessary for being the president.\n\nHe spends money like a teenager with her parents' credit card trying to impress her friends.\n\nHe cherry-picked info to come up with the conclusion he wanted. (WMD's)\n\nHe made very poor decision for appointments (FEMA's Brown)\n\nHis poor communication skills are no match for combatting the liberal media. (And he's has given them a lot of ammunition)\n\nHey, Shepherd - No president has much control over economics.  What little they can do has little or no immediate effect.

There's no question about that. Some political historians are already calling Bush THE worst President in U.S. history.Since his Presidency began,the standing of the U.S. has fallen to an all-time low. Other world leaders don't\nrespect him and he's done nothing but antagonize them.\nEven Tony Blair steers clear of him now,since not even he has enough influence with his "ally" to have him re-consider idiotic environmental non-policies.

I would go on with life.  I put up with Clinton for eight years, Carter for four.  So one was inept, the other was a sexcrazed lying maniac.  Nothing is forever\n\nAnd I reject the premise that Bush is a bad President.  He has kept his word. And has done everything (well except the borders) to keep this country safe

Both, but Bush has the potential to do much greater harm over time. His embargo on Iraq accounted (according to UN Relief) for the death of about 500 thousand children over nearly 10 years. If he goes on, the toll on the arab countries might entitle the Bush family for an award for genocide against all arab nations, I say award because I doubt he'll ever be tried to crimes (like last week's bombing of a Pakistani village over the Iraq border murdered a few peasant families) but who cares about these things, anyway.
