The toplist made some interesting points... But he must first educate himself. No most of the troops are not educated. Do you know that the Marine Corps will not accept non high school graduates. Only 5 percent of the marine corps can be a non high school graduate. That means that if you have a GED, than you are not a Marine.
The point he made about Bush starting 9/11 (should I even address that).
People in this time a need, we need to stand as one NATION. we need to support our president and Commander in Chief. Regardless of wether you are a republican or a democrat... regardless of wether you like or dislike war. A lot of good is being done in Iraq. You would understand more if you saw that face of a young Iraq boy saying thanking you to a U. S. Marine. That is why we are there. those people deserve better than what they had.

Who was the last president who was really well liked? They all get a hard time. I think in the long run President Bush will be seen as one of the best presidents of all time. Many people base their opinion on what they read in the newspaper, which is very narrow and tends to focus on only the bad. I subscribe to World Magazine, which reports the news you don't find in the liberal newspapers. In the August 19 issue one journalist lists some of the many good things happening in Iraq, and gives an example of the hope emerging among the Iraqi people as they learn about the concept of democracy.

Screwed up alot of stuff
Got us in a war that we didn't need to get into - mislead the nation on reasons (Iraq. Afghanistan is a different story)
Next to no domestic agenda
Appoints cronies that are incompetent (all presidents appoint cronies-- Bush's just aren't all that great)
Driven by religious ideology (hmmm,, like the mullahs maybe?)
Increased national debt more than any other pres.
Is viewed as arrogant and not willing to work with other nations
Is viewed as arrogant and strong armed many in the legislative branch.
Is viewed as too conservative.
Has p*ssed away most good will from other nations-- we are very much diliked in many parts of the world
Good at breaking things,, horrible at fixing them.
Buddies with Bin Laden family
**Percieved** as having stolen both elections (I don't buy this one but people think it)

geez, I could go on and on.

Bush lives in a fantasy world where his friends and relatives are ruining the United States systematically by alienating allies and most importantly and regrettably his own country. He is not qualified to be a president. He is running the country like all of his failed business enterprises except this time, no one will be there to bail him out except maybe the next president if we are lucky. Just look at the defecit he has created in his tenure. The budget has never made any sense and this administration has no sense of fiduciary responsibility. God bless you for your service and your beliefs.

It was his bad beginning with being appointed and all, and then the tax cuts for the very rich. Leaving the poor and middle class behind and going from a surplus to a deficit faster then you can blink
Might have been his terrible middle when he went to war for self enrichment. Or it could be lately where he tried to give away our ports, or nominate a crony, his lies about the war. He is really a tool.

Wow...this question has trillion answers...

First of all as someone already mentioned about Michel Moor's 9/11 film, i firmly blv that 9/11 is planned by himself to invade middle east ONLY FOR OIL to make his company get huge margins of profits (Exon Mobil has record profit ever since they invade middle east and thatz why Mr. Bush dont give damn about whoever asking him to stop the war despite many Soldiers have already died) as well as to sell arms which is just like an advertisement when these new war planes and rockets are used from which they can really experiment the affects.

You have been in war...I do salute you...But can you please tell me how many of your social status good i mean those Soldiers who serves in iraq are Rich? Damn No. Those who die in the war whether it is american or arab, all of them are poor. Most of the youngsters who joins forces since they dont have any job and they are from low class community or poor or uneducated. Does any rich would join in american forces? Hell no unless it is a prestigious & commanding job not the field job.

Middle east was doing all good during all these period though westerns alwayz from their way to lick every single drop of OIL but still they INVADE THEM by making their own plans as they fear they cant get any more Oil...

And do remember...It is since this war starts only OIL PRICE HAS REACHED TO RECORD HIGH duly making bush & his friends rich and i do blv Osama must be good friend of Mr. Bush otherwise who will pave him to get this much of profits.

War shall against Soldier vs Soldier but what happens here is Soldier vs Public which is unacceptable @ all...Eg. You know very well how these soldiers raped and killed innocent during war in iraq…It became a big issue but did Mr. Bush took any decision? @least none of the executed as of now coz ur law doesn’t support to execute soldiers but without no evidence u still keep on killing innocent and would continue to do…

I guess he forget that there is a day of reckoning…It is not very far from him

The President lies, costing the American people their lives and their tax dollars for his unilateral, delusional, misguided foreign policy.

In our Republic, the Congress has the sole power to declare war. The founding fathers wanted this power to remain in the hands of the people so that individuals could not go willy-nilly into war. President Bush unconstitutionally circumvented this war power by manufacturing bogus intelligence and fear-mongering to pressure Congress into giving him sole authority to go to war.

We are under no obligation to support a criminal leader...even if he is our President! In fact, we are under obligation to impeach our current President for high crimes and treason.

Well, let's see. He has intentionally lied and deceived the world over and over again, he is responsible for the unnecessary, pointless deaths of tens of thousands of innocent people, he has made the world and particularly the US a MUCH more dangerous place to live, he has cause the world to hate the US more than they already did. Do you need more reasons? He is the worst president in the history of the US.

Just read the news, there's lots of things that can tell you (Iraq, domestic spying, Gitmo indefinite detention, signing statements, destroying checks and balances) For me, I just put it all under one big heading, too much executive power.

Thank You, sir, for serving our country. Must be pretty frustrating to do what your proud to do, and a bunch of bleeding-heart (sorry-lack of a better word) folks saying "Bush is a Nazi" He may not be my favorite but I respect his decisions, and respect you highly for your service. Bless you!!!
