I know, If people didn't like him after the first four years of his presidency, then why did they vote him in for another four years

I really dislike Bush. And if it has anything to do with it, I'm Canadian.

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.

Most Americans do NOT like George Bush!  Most didn't even VOTE for him!  He's crooked and he doesn't care about anybody who isn't filthy rich like he is.\n\nThere are plenty of things wrong with America, you just don't know.

I am not against George Bush. He is a decent honest man. He cares about this country, both present and future. However, he is only one man and too many people want to blame him, or the government for their own stupid problems and lousy choices in life. How can anybody blame one person for all their problems. We have a huge government from local on up. On one hand people like you hate George Bush, on the other you act as if though he has the power of God. If everybody would accept responsibility for their own actions and not expect the government to solve all their problems, the country and the world would be a much better place. Why do hate him? If you live in the United States you have more opportunity than most people in the world. How is George Bush messing up your life? What are you doing to make life better in this country? I would like to hear it.

George Bush is an alright man. I dont think the world of him but i dont think nothing of him. He is the president and he makes the desicions. Not the people. They do have a say in it, but George makes all the final ones. I dont understand why people complain about him. He has done nothing to harm them and has done nothing wrong. I think he is a good president

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!!

I do.  I don't understand why 80+% of people thought he was a good president when we were going to war and dealing with terrorism and now half of the population has decided he shouldn't have gone.  Where's the consistency?  I guess popular opinion is fickle and that's why I support Bush, because he doesn't just base his decisions on popular opinion.

I'm against everything that Bush stands for and does.\n\n- He believes in manipulating the public with propaganda in order to control the masses. Hitler believed the same yet he claims to be a Christian. The Christian faith believes in honesty and truth. How is manipulating the masses with false propaganda either of those.\n- He is a false Christian. He was hired by his father in 1988 to learn how to 'sound' Christian in order to win the evangelical vote. And I have yet to find any record of him every being baptized.\n- He knowingly lied to the American ppl and to Congress in the state of the union speech about Iraq's WMDs. (grounds for impeachment)\n- He has destroyed my country's high level of respect all around the world. Now ppl actually hate us instead of admire us.\n-His cowboy diplomacy has created more terrorists in this world than could have ever been imagined.\n-He has gone around congress by using executive orders to combine religion with the state. These executive orders evolve around his Faith-Based Initiatives that MY tax dollars are paying for. To this day, no non-christian organizations have received any of those funds. (grounds for impeachment)\n- He has ignored my country's laws and disobeyed the constitution repeatedly. (grounds for impeachment)\n- He has used rendition to have prisoners tortured which is a war crime and violation of the Geneva convention. He is a war criminal. (grounds for impeachment)\n- He is flat out an immoral man with an evil spirit. He believes in lies, deceit and power.... anything for political gain and to keep republicans in power.\n- I truly believe that he is Cheney and Rumsfeld's pawn and Rove has no moral fiber whatsoever in his soul.\n- Any party that 'admittingly' uses HATE to win elections... I can't describe the emotion I get about this... I think maybe nausea.\n- Here recently, after the Supreme Court slapped him on the wrist about some things, he has decided to try to rewrite legislation rather than conform to our constitution. The same constitution he gave an oath to honor, protect and obey.\n- He turned me into a murderer by using my tax dollars to kill 100,000s of innocent Iraqis. (grounds for impeachment)\n- He is PRO-ILLEGAL immigration.\n- he is all about helping the rich get richer. IE, his party sabotages the minimum wage increase by addnig in estate tax cuts for ONLY the rich.\n\nHow ppl believe this man is a Christian is beyond me.

I don't like him at all.  His 2000 election results were questionable, he's unqualified, he's not intelligent, he lies to the american people so that a handful of his cronies can get rich, he's gotten us into a war that is not making us any safer OR addressing the tragic events of 9/11 plus he's lousy at domestic affairs.  I believe he's the worst president in modern history.

I have never met PRESIDENT Bush, so I can't say whether I like him or not.  I'm not intellectually challenged or DEFICIENT (that's the correct spelling, answerman), and actually, I'm not even a Republican.\nHowever, I don't think many people could have led our country better the last six years, except maybe me, lol.  J/K.  I do wish we could raise FDR from the dead though, he would have been awesome right about now!  And, oh yeah, he was a Democrat, not that it matters...\nSo here's why I approve of PRESIDENT Bush as President:\nHe hasn't defended himself on Hurricane Katrina.  Everyone wants to blame him, but really, Louisiana is NOT the only state that was heavily damaged by the hurricane.  What about Mississippi?  Oh, that's right, their STATE government took care of them...and they asked for federal aid immediately.  In New Orleans, it was announced by the mayor, the senator, and the governor that they did not need federal aid the day after the hurricane.  Yet after all hell broke loose, the National Guard was sent in...and quickly.\nThe wire-tapping was a great idea.  Too bad the media got ahold of it.  Why was it a great idea?  Because it allowed the government to listen in on calls placed from known Al Qaida operatives to the US.  They were NOT listening in on Joe Schmoe telling his best friend how much p***y he got the other night, or Jane Doe telling her sister how much pot she smoked.  So, nice job media, ruining that one.  \nThe so-called "leak", which was in fact the disclosure of DECLASSIFIED information.  The CIA agent that was "outed" hadn't been a covert agent for over five years.  Yet President Bush isn't defending himself on that either.\nHe's been accused of "lying" about the WMD's, and yet hasn't defended himself.  I really wish people would get over that one, because no matter how many times they're told that the Democrats "lied", and the soldiers over there (and who were there in the last three years) that have found evidence that there HAD been WMD's also "lied"...they won't listen.\nI could say much more on how he's NOT a bad president, but I'm not going to waste my time.  If some of these people REALLY wanted to know, they would watch FahrenHYPE 9/11 (which disproves much of Michael Moore's lovely\n"documentary"), stop watching Loose Change, and maybe take a look at truthorfiction.com, snopes.com, popularmechanics.com (and search for the story about debunking the 9/11 conspiracy myths), or www.strategypage.com (and search for the story on the War in Iraq).\nHere's what I like about President Bush:\nHe's true to his word, especially away from the cameras.  I've heard many stories about how he shows his respect for our Armed Forces members, has taken the time to pray with someone just because they asked him, given hugs and comfort to those who have lost loved ones in 9/11 and the War...\nOverall, he shows his integrity in private.  That's what matters most to me.  I couldn't care less about how well he speaks (or doesn't, as we all know is true), because that's his public face.\nI like the fact that he illegalized partial-birth abortion within his first few months in office, yet has left abortion alone other than that, even though he feels it's wrong.\nI love the fact that he doesn't listen to the war protesters, and instead listens to the soldiers on the ground.  Most of them say we CAN'T pull out...and we'd better not.  Also, many of them have said that even though they were injured, they would go again and again.  I saw that on, if I remember correctly, CBS news, which, as most conservatives know, leans to the left.  I've also talked to many soldiers myself, and most of them have told me the same thing.\nMost people that have met him say he's not the "bumbling idiot" many think he is.  He's actually ver

"Hate" is such a despicable word. However, one  look at the Bush track record, and it's easy to see why George W. Bush was recently voted the "least admirable" man in America!\n\nIn collusion with his brother Jeb, Bush stole the first election, then did it again in the second election. He dumped America into an illegal, unconstitutional war for two reasons: to 'get even' with Saddam Hussein for humiliating George H.W. Bush during Desert Storm in the early 1990's - and to get all or Iraq's oil (actually, that's on Big Dick Cheney's wish list so he can make all his oil-drenched buddies even more obscenely wealthy than they already are). \nBush lied to the American people about weapons of mass destruction. He showed no remorse for all the thousands of Iraq people he's killed, nor has he shown any remorse for the 2,500 U.S. soldiers that his dirty little war has killed. Bush is a spoiled rich kid whose daddy got him out of harm's way while making it appear that he was serving time in a military unit. Macho man that he is, he was still allowed to fly fighter jets because he thought that would be 'cool'. \nHe's snuggled up to big business, special interest groups, the wealthiest individuals in this country, and lobbyists, all of whom can pour millions of dollars into the Republican party. But he's totally neglected the environment; the state of our fragile ecology; the poor, disabled, sick, hungry, and underprivileged in this country; and he's pretty much sold the middle class down the tubes. Because of his reckless policies, the next generation of Americans will live in a two-class society, just like they do in Haiti and the Dominican Republic: the very, very rich and the rest of us, the very, very poor. Americans are now trillions of dollars in debt, which will take generations to pay off. Bush has allowed credit card companies and pharmaceutical companies to cheat people with usurious interest rates and service charges and drugs that might actually shorten their lives!\nBush is a cowboy capitalist who should be impeached...or at least tried for high treason, and - if convicted - he should stand before a firing squad. He has turned America into an "evil empire" that mistrusts its own citizenry, lies to protect its own greedy interests, and spies on anyone that's not liked.\nIt's hard NOT to hate an impotent, stupid, selfish man like Bush.\n\nWatch www.blogger.com for a new 'blog' called BUSHWACKER!\n\nDick Cheney and Don Rumsfeld are just as evil (if you could life their scalps, you'd find "666" underneath their receding hairlines). Surely there's a special oil-saturated corner of Hell reserved for these three demons, where they can spend their eternal damnation.

Sorry I didn't answer before, I just found your question.   Deep breath.  This is going to be a long one.  These are reasons to not hate him, as well as reasons to almost approve of him.\nLet me explain a bit. I'm a proud wife of a soldier in the U.S. Army. I'm a good friend of many other soldiers. When President Bush first ran in 2000, I did not support him in any way. As a matter of fact, I chose not to vote, because I hated Al Gore. The only candidate I even halfway liked was Ralph Nader. In 2004, about six months before the election, I was leaning towards John Kerry. Then I found out some things about him I didn't like. So I started researching Ralph Nader, and I liked him a lot. But THEN I started finding out more about the incumbent. This is a man who took time out to pray with a man he didn't know, for the man's mother-in-law. This President made the 17-hour flight to Iraq and Afghanistan just to shake hands with his troops, and thank them for what they're doing. This is a man who went to church every Sunday that he could, and expected no special treatment. There are eyewitness accounts to that. This man also embraced a young girl who had lost her mother on 9/11, visited injured vets in the hospital without the presence of the news media, who starts each day in prayer, who saluted a soldier and HELD the salute until the soldier (who had been terribly injured in Iraq) saluted him back. As for the last one, for those who don't know, that's usually what lower ranking soldiers do to the higher ranking ones. It's a huge form of honor. And yet you guys say he's this horrible person? Do any of you know him? I doubt it. Have any of you heard these stories? I doubt it, because it's the last thing that the news media or conspiracy websites want to report.\n"Bush lied about the WMD's in Iraq." Sure, he did, along with Congress and the House of Reps, both Democrats and Republican.  Even John Kerry said there were WMD's.  Was he lying too?\n"This war is all about oil." It is, actually. Many who protest the war do not understand the conditions in Iraq before we went in. Hussein would punish his people by depriving them of food, of oil, of water, and of electricity. The soldiers are simply giving all of that back to them. To add to that, did you know that mass graves with over 250,000 decomposing bodies were found in the sand? ALL SLAUGHTERED BY HUSSEIN!!! These were women, children, young men, elderly men and women, people who had done nothing wrong.\n"When is Bush going to realize that enough have died in Iraq and it's time to call them home?!" You people call just over 2000 a lot? Perhaps you have forgotten history. Do you know how many died when D-Day, the day we landed on Normany Beach during WWII, in one day? Nearly half a million! Now I'm not belittling the lives of the soldiers who have died in combat in the last three years. One soldier dying is too many. I ache for their families, I really do. BUT all things considered, when you add in the statistics of how many soldiers are there, and how long we've been there, that means that an average of one soldier dies a day. Out of over 200,000. This is WAR. It's not pretty, no one ever said it was. But one death a day? Liken it to Tacoma, WA, where I grew up. More die in Tacoma than in Iraq, in accidents, in murders, in suicides et cetera et cetera. \n"Bush wants to illegalize abortion." Sure, he wishes it were possible. The fact of the matter is though, he knows it's not. Abortion has been legal for thirty years, it's going to stay that way. He DID illegalize partial-birth abortions. For those who don't know what those are, that's when labor is induced in the third trimester, and the baby is delivered feet first (and at this point, it is most DEFINITELY a baby!). At this point, scissors are inserted into the back of the baby's skull, then the hole made

While I have some concerns about some of the actions initiated by the President Bush (such as some elements of the Patriot Act) but by and large he is a dedicated and sincere President.\n\nI say this though I have never supported him in an election, but I make a distinction between such reservations and the blatant, unsubstantiated assertions made about the President.  I have no doubt that there are those who want a different president, that is obvious with the virulent yelling of hatred which is so often seen here.  However, I suggest that those who sincerely want a change that there should get involved with political actions which will lead to such change.  To do that is an act of a mature person.  To continue to scream hatred is childish and ineffectual.

i dislike him for the follwing reasons:\n-he is deceitful and manipulative.  \n-his cabinet has promoted and condoned torture and human rights abuse, particularly concerning anyone detained in the so-called 'war on terror', (not actual terrorists).\n-he shows no respect for other countries or their cultures.\n-he has put our country in extreme debt, harming future generations.  \n-he claims to love jesus, who promoted peace, but bush promotes war and fear.  \n-he is not intelligent or articulate, and he makes americans look like idiots to the rest of the world. \n-he doesn't seem to know how to apologize. \n-he appoints people to positions of power who are seriously unqualified for the job, (like the head of fema).  \n-he doesn't read the news.  \n-he exagerrated and falsified reasons to invade another country, against international law.\n-he refuses to answer confrontational questions. (he is more secretive than the nixon administration was.)\n-he conducts business and makes contracts in secret with corporations which cause harm, to benefit his wealthy friends.  (look into halliburton.)\n-he claims to be speaking on behalf of god.  that is a psychological disorder, making him unfit for office.\n\ni could go on, but the list is too long for this post.

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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
