Yes he is a strong leader and deserving of being the President. He stood up to the terroists and we have not been attacked sine 9/11/01. A lot of liberals hate him only a couple of months after that and have done everything they can think of to try and make him look bad. He has made good decisions with some very tough issues which to be quite frank about, liberals or the useless United Nation could not have handled. Neither Kerry or Gore could have handled the office as effectively.

I'm not quite sure people realize quite what President Bush has done to this country. I'm not bashing Republicans, I'm trying to enlighten everyone by saying that the true effects of the President's policies are either not know or will not be felt for some time. Let's review the facts:
Bush has caused 95% of the entire world to hate us.
The War on Terror has actually CREATED more terrorrists than its killed by moving millions of Muslims toward radical Islam.
The President has effectively single-handedly ruined our economy, turing a 200+ BILLION dollar surplus, one that colud be used to resolve our oil dependence, or maybe be saved in case of another depression, or could be used for AIDS research, Bush took it and turned it into a 423 BILLION dollar DEFICIT. Losing 600 BILLION dollars is quite a feat.
The President has make American education a laughing-stock. More and more kids are dropping out and China is taking the lead due to a lack of funding for education, prefering to pay for a costly war.
The President has let 2000 soldiers die in a war based on lies. Colin Powell went before the UN and said that Saddam Hussein had WMDs that could reach America, he said the smoking gn would be a mushroom cloud. However ,after no link to al Qaeda could be found, the President declares we are bringers or freedom to a country that has collapsed into chaos after we went there.
The President is leaving global warming to destory our planet. He ignores solid science, prefering unfounded religious statements to run the country than highly respectable scientists.
The President is slowly creating an Orwellian society by eliminating privacy and granting more power to one man, nullifying the system of checks and balances in our Constitution. The NSA has shown that the President has no concern for the ultimte law governing our land, prefering his own rule.
I am not asking everyone to be a democrat, I only ask them to turn away the propoganda from both sides of the aisle. Dont listen to the politicians, look at the numbers. These are all facts, and I only ask you to consider them.

I admire him. I respect everybody's decision on who they vote for, because Democrats and Republicans shouldn't fight because in the end, were all people right? I have seen friendships lost and people getting into fist fights because one was republican and other democrat! We shouldn't let our beliefs tears us apart, yet bring us together. Like people hate Bush for keeping them our soldiers in Iraq, but he wouldn't just do that to get them killed. Because if we let down, they will try to attack. We've seen it a million times before. I am also not saying that they should obligate the soldiers to stay over there, but most of them are very happy to serve our country. But what I think about Bush is he is a little clumsy but he is overall a great president. I do wonder sometimes what it would be like if he wasn't picked as president, but not saying I wanted the other to win! It could have ended being Worl War 3 for all we know. Because it is a possible thing for that to happen. But he may not be "the sharpest knife in the drawer" but he is sharp enough to cut the meat, right?

People like to give Bush trouble for the war. Whoever reads needs to take a minute out to think back to 911. Remember how it felt watching the building collapse and the plane flying into it? Remember how damn never every American of all backgrounds was flying red, white, and blues! Remember how we all sort of felt united and ready to go kick some terroist azz? I think Bush could have done better, but I gotta stick by him for the main reason that people critisize him. I approve of Bush, but I can't wait for a new president.

How can you settle for mediocrity? Isn't the leader of the free world supposed to be the BEST we have to offer? You're willing to settle for a guy who's short in brains and long on malapropism?
What message are we sending to the world, heck, what message does that send to OUR CHILDREN?
It's ok if you ride the short bus, you can be President too!
Um, I have a HUGE problem with this.
WE'RE the United States of America for crying out loud! The last bastion of Hope. The ongoing Experiment of Democrasy at work. When we SETTLE for Second, heck third best, what does that say about us?

No, I do not approve, he is a coke snorting, alcoholic and has a limited mental capacity, he was appointed to the presidency, he cut taxes to the very rich leaving the poor and middle class behind, he has run up record deficits, He started a war for no reason. He tried to give away our ports, his response to Katrina was to clear brush on his ranch. I can go on and on and on about why he is the worst president I have seen in my 60 years, but you would consider that to be hate.

as a person.... I adore him. He stands for everything that i believe the united states should stand for, He used religion in his decisions, and thats what we need more of. I'm not one of those bible thumping religious psychos, but i am religious, and i support anyone who has the same values as me. And i like cowboys. Sure he had some problems, but he's only human. think about how carter dealt with the hostage situation in the middle east during his presidency, he didn't think either. We need more men like Bush in the office, people who don't worry about the polls, but what is best for the country. But thats just my opinion.

How can you excuse a nation for having such a low mentality in its President? And a religious hypocrite to boot. Couldn't a country of millions find a more clever clear-thinking individual to risk its future with?

Bush is a man of courage. But at times his decisions seem to be taken in haste and cannot be accepted. As a person though I don't know him in person i think he is a God fearing and loving person who likes to spent time having fun in Golf and with his family. He is surely a man of his word. Mistakes are human and he has made a lot of it. this is my personnal opinion about Bush. Being the President he has to be harsh at times and thats what he is at times ....

I think bush the president is not the one running the show, i think its his father doing everything.. with his people...Sorry i know you like him, since the whole world is supposed to look up to USA, his job is to create peace in the world.... Not cause destruction... he is the leader not the follower.... Whatever is going on now, is only the beginning of what is actually going to happen. And i only prey it all ends peacefully...
Peace be with you...
To answer your question, I do not approve of Bush
