The day he was inaugurated he gave an order for the US military to do a "flyover" into the No Fly zone in Iraq. I wonder if he asked the pilot to flip Saddam the bird?
The second thing he did was cut the funding for International family planning effectively ending the only health care many women in remote areas receive at all. Why? Because he promised the Christian right that he would end abortion and birth control wherever he could as president. Those clients do pre natal care for expectant mothers, regular health care visits, inoculations for children and disease control. I wonder how many women and children died as a direct result of his helping out the Christian right's agenda to take us all back to the 1500's?

Did you research it?
The International family planning wasn't cut so bad it couldn't be used. It went from 504 million to 425 million. That is the same ammount that was in effect the last year Clinton was in office. It was raised under the new fiscal budget in 00 and reduced again in 01 back to 425 Million.
You bash bush blindly and have missed. Look up facts next time.

He undid much of what Clinton did in the first 90 days of his presidency. He also give money to the rich and left the poor and middle class behind, I really do not understand how anybody but the very rich voted for him in the second election. It shouldn't have even been close enough for Dibold to make a difference. He has set back America at least 40 years or more.

certainly bush has done a disservice to women around the world, particularly in poorer countries where family planning is a priority in order to enable governments cope with the growing needs of their populations.
perhaps he made some people happy but these are people that are happy in the safety of their comfortable homes and have no idea what it's like to be in the position that millions of poorer women around the world find themselves in. it's a case really of hypocritically putting one's own convictions ahead of the welfare of a fellow human being.
as for the flyover into the iraqi no fly zone, that would pretty much signal his intent, he came into office with one eye on iraq and made sure he got in there by hook or crook.
those two acts pretty much sum up most of his actions as president, undoubtedly one of the most incompetent to occupy the office.
