I don't think Bush is stupid or insane. His biggest problem is his unwavering faith in his own infallibility. He refuses to admit that he might be wrong. He takes no outside advice. His way is the only way, and anybody who disagrees is a traitor, or misguided, or a cut-and-run liberal, or a terrorist-lover, or an America-hater, or whatever label he can think of to hang on them.
George is not dumb. But if he would open up to a little more advice from smart people, he'd be a better president. I knew he was going down the tubes when he fired Colin Powell. Powell is one of the brightest military minds of our age, and a sharp thinker on foreign policy, and Bush fired him and replaced him with a 'yes' girl who only thinks the thoughts that Bush tells her to think.

Earlier today I read a review of the U.S. Presidents who have generally been judged by history as the worst. Each tended to have been judged worst because of their policies and actions in a specific area of governing. And in each area, Bush after 6 years has been worse than any of them, making him clearly the worst President ever. If he's also a mad man . . . well then at least he has an excuse for being the worst President ever!

I don't think he's a madman, just inept at the demands of his office. He's in way above his head. A puppet leader who has gotten all his strings tied up by all his puppeteers! He has no right to be leader of a country, no less to make foreign policy decisions. He simply doesn't have the education or background.
He keeps asking us to "trust him". I reserve that leap of faith for someone who'e educated, well read, well traveled, a diplomat, uses proper grammar when making public statements, doesn't need speechwriters to tell him what to say about everything, doesn't need an earpiece during a debate, wins the popular vote, doesn't freeze up during national crisis, doesn't unilaterally launch an illegal war, doesn't run the country into the biggest trade imbalance ever, wipes out our financial reserves, destabilizes the middle east, makes millions of dollars as a war-profiteer, makes millions of dollars with daddy's oil investments, doesn't blink at the loss of american lives in Iraq, doesn't loose sleep over the hundreds of thousands of iraqi innocents and non-innocents who have lost their lives due to his ineptitude.....

No.
Back when Jimmy Carter was elected President, some voters said they voted for him cause "he was a nice man".
Problem is - you do not want a nice man/woman running the federal government. Given all of the enemies the U.S. has, sometimes you need a leader who has no problem with cracking heads.
Many people say one of the greatest leaders was Winston Churchill. But when (WWII) the British government broke the German's military codes, and knew the German were going to bomb specific cities in England - Churchill would not warn the citizens and evacuate the cities. Warning the cities would make the German realize that the British could read their military commands (and thus, lengthen the war). But Churchill did go view the ruins in the cities (including seeing the dead laying in the streets).

NO!
When all is said and done the history books will show that he was a good man with a vision of a strong America that protects itself and others that can't.
Alot of women aren't being beaten on by these sadistic religious zealots because America instigated a change of attitude.
Terrorism won't be tolerated on a global or personal scale.
I love Bush for that.

No. I think he is cold and calculating. Being a "Mad Man" implies more feeling than he possesses.

The man is the head of our country, like it or not. Many US pres have made bad decisions if you look into their histories. Over the week-end it made me sick to hear Americans fixated on Pres putting him downwith the CIA. I'm sure Some enemy countries are keeping up on this to determine if we're strong or divided. Ellison has 2 Hamas friends said author of 'The Truth about Muhammad' why isn't anyone concerned about a fellow state voting in someone who should be checked out. Soon we'll be like Eurasia with terrorists demanding their Sharia Law be in force. Hang on to your heads, if you need them.

Totally and completely insane...a pananoid schizophrenic with delusions of grandeur. He should be hauled off to the big house with rubber rooms.
