I'm sorry to have to inform you that President Bush is not an honorable man doing his best for his country. He is a catastrophe for the US and the world.

As a human being, he is a decent man and of course pretty entertaining too! But, as President of a huge country with world-wide influence and interests he is far from satisfactory! Anyway, for him, it is his second term and in two years he will be off the field. Thank God, the constitution does not allow a third term!
As for his legacy, let the people be the judge of it and decide what to remember of him - his comical acts on television or whatever he hasn't done for the countrymen or his international adventures or the way he messed up things after 9-11!
One thing which is crystal clear - if not for 9-11 he would not have been re-elected. It was a blessing in disguise for him! As for the first election, we all know how he won, thanks to Florida Governor –his brother!

I think he is descent in some of his religious beliefs and he has the potential to be decent in all areas of concern, as does everyone. But, with that said, he has let his Presidency go to his head. His ego has far out weighed decisions that affect all Americans. I feel that his main concern is his fellow Americans (Oil persons). He has stubbornly refused to admit any wrong doings, (since when does any human never make any mistakes), the President is no different. His pride has taken over and we are paying the price(literally) for it. I would have much more respect for him if he would step up to the plate and admit that "Stay the Course" in Iraq, is failing. Admitting our faults is not a sign of weakness, but rather, a sign of strength especially when you try to fix the problem in the best way you can. Perhaps he doesn't know how, it has gotten to big to fix, how sad, that oil, ego and pride does/ will affect millions perhaps billions of people in a negative and selfish way.

I know a woman who worked for him when he was Gov. of Texas, she assures me he is a nice guy. However, his policies leave something to be desired. The tax cuts for billionaires and the war in Iraq have put the county a trillion dollars in debt to Communist China, that is not good. Giving corporations tax cuts for shipping jobs overseas is not wise, to say the least. The war is a tragedy, totally avoidable, and a ghastly mistake. So altho he probably thinks he is doing the right thing, reality is otherwise.

The President has a Vice President that is up to no good. Any man that sneaks around the country has got something up his sleeve. Dick Cheney is not the Antichrist, but I do not trust him. He is a Washington insider from way back. He is a big time wheeler-dealer and a power broker. Things are going to get interesting in 2008.

Depends on who you ask. The answers you have received reflects this. This is the nature of democracy. At the end of the day you can vote if you are an American. There is an inherent wisdom in democracy. If he is not then he will be outed. Besides the constitution ensures you cannot grab or stay in power indefinitely!!! Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely - only a question of time.

Yes, unlike the coward that was before him,Bill Clinton, who had a chance to get Osama after blowing up our embassies and the USS Cole, and passed, Bush, and all of America got stuck with 9-11..Have we been attacked since 9-11? No we havent..That's because Bush has shown the world he has balls and wont put up with shitz, unlike under Clinton where we were attacked repeatedly

While he might (I said MIGHT) be a decent man, I don't think he is doing what is best for THIS country, however he is the president and I won't bad mouth him. I still pray for guidance for him and the rest of our leaders.

He is doing the best he can. It would not matter who was in office, there would still be people crying that their candidate got robbed, unfair, bad for the country, etc...
