Why do people hate President Bush?

Question

Real reasons not junk talk.

Answer 1

I'm against everything that Bush stands for and does.

- 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.
- 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.
- He knowingly lied to the American ppl and to Congress in the state of the union speech about Iraq's WMDs. (grounds for impeachment)
- He has destroyed my country's high level of respect all around the world. Now ppl actually hate us instead of admire us.
-His cowboy diplomacy has created more terrorists in this world than could have ever been imagined.
-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)
- He has ignored my country's laws and disobeyed the constitution repeatedly. (grounds for impeachment)
- 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)
- 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.
- I truly believe that he is Cheney and Rumsfeld's pawn and Rove has no moral fiber whatsoever in his soul.
- Any party that 'admittingly' uses HATE to win elections... I can't describe the emotion I get about this... I think maybe nausea.
- 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.
- He turned me into a murderer by using my tax dollars to kill 100,000s of innocent Iraqis. (grounds for impeachment)
- He is PRO-ILLEGAL immigration.
- 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.

How ppl believe this man is a Christian is beyond me.

Answer 2

Well, the United States is split into sections. There are Democrats and Republicans. Who hate each other apparently, because the two groups have very different beliefs. Technically, the United States is also split into two other groups, the North and South, because of the Civil War. Still others have broken into innumerable groups for religious reasons, such as the Catholics, Baptists, Methodists, etc.

The reason Democrats don't like Bush is because they do not agree with his opinions and choices. This means all the people who think gay marriage should be allowed, all who think we should just stay out of wars (though it is literally impossible to do so), and all against various other decisions he has made. But then again, Democrats truly believe Bill Clinton was a great leader. Regardless of that small blip in the history books with Monica Lewinsky. This may be mean of me to say so, but if Hillary Clinton becomes the first female president (because God knows she's going for it), my entire family is most likely moving to Canada.

Answer 3

Bush's whole with us or against us thing backfired, big time. He has no unifying leadership skills and creates division on a daily basis. I'm no lefty, but Bush is not a strong leader. He follows through on what he says, which is good. Unfortunately, we need a President that will follow through on what the people want, and that is not Bush. Bush makes no or very poor efforts to sell his agenda to us. He's generally made a mess of everything. Post 9/11 we had the world behind us, now look where we are.

Answer 4

What's there to like? Really - what has he done for the country to make our lives better? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. He's gotten us into a never-ending war, he's shown disdain for the victims of natural disasters, he's vetoed legislation which would have possibly helped find a cure for those with debilitating diseases, he's sold out to his buddies in the big oil companies, he's been opposed to anything and everything which would help improve the quality of life of the common man. Of course if you're rich, you got a nice little tax cut, but not all that many of us are rich. And let's not forget, he took a record budget surplus and almost overnight turned it into a record deficit. Most embarassing of all - he's made this country the laughingstock of the world with his mangled and garbled speaking and how can we forget the famous "back rub" in Germany? He's a LOSER and a COWARD and the WORST PRESIDENT in history.

Answer 5

Because, 9/11 was a horrible day for the US. Terrorists came over after following Bin Laden's plan to kill as many of us as possible and hurt our financial center. Bush did a great job answering back by going into Afghanistan, but he did not send enough troops to find Bin Laden. Then, he wanted to go into Iraq with the rest of the world saying you should wait a while until we can prove they have WMD and he didn't. So he starts this war with Iraq and once the gov't is destroyed he doesn't have a purpose any longer. But more Americans keep dying everyday over there - for nothing.

Also, his response to Katrina was horrible.

The $100 Billion he spent on Iraq could have decreased American's healthcare cost, improved schools, improved resources to get rid of gangs and drugs, improved the welfare system so lazy people don't advantage of it, improved people's unemployment benefits if they lst their jobs, improved our defenses against illegal aliens, etc.

That's why I don't like him much. I also don't think the most powerful man in the world should be only average intelligence.

Answer 6

Because he symbolizes everything wrong the republicans have done in the last six years, like misleading us into war, prescription drugs for the rich pharmaceutical companies, tax cuts for the rich (while millions don't even have health care), not even talking about issues like global warming, alternative energy, 8 million people in our prison justice system etc, etc, etc.... The list of why people hate bush would be extremely long, my reason is for all of these issues and the fact that he doesn't even discuss them... too me this makes him a very evil man.

Answer 7

human beings somewhat seem to think of the President has extra ability than he somewhat has. i'm no Bush lover, however the Congress the Justices who now legislate from the bench are only as to blame. yet as quickly as I had to p.c.. on a a million-10, i might say 5.

Answer 8

I think it is more party affiliation than actual hate. It happened during the Clinton years and it is happening now!!! There is no such thing as bipartisanship anymore!!!

Answer 9

Difference of Ideas. When Clinton was in office, it was the Republicans complaining, now Democrats complain. It is all about difference of ideas.

Answer 10

Idk but I am so TIRED of people dumping on him. Do they not realize that he is doing what he can and that all the decions made by the government arent necessarily made by him? Even the decision to go to war wasnt just his so I wish people would STOP with the Bush jokes, he has been a GREAT president.
