I forgot to mention the erosion of our constitutional rights.
The latest is the passport requirement for Americans leave and return to the US, that is slated for 2007. They can prevent citizens from coming back to their home

Well, He's benifited himself, his family, his friends, his oil business interests, and furthered the agenda of the rich as far as taking over more and more power, leaving the people here without rights, and at the hands of the corporations. A poor person would never be able to be president, as they can't afford to campaigne, travel, and have no connections to corporate america. No taxation without representation. Since the poor are not represented by rich politicians, they should not be taxed, imho

Good question. I guess some people just like to be bent over the stump. It's funny, but I haven't heard many complaints about food prices. I think it has tripled since he took office. We don't eat nearly as well as just five years ago. Fresh veggies cost what beef used too and beef what lobster used too. Dairy products are terrible also. I just hate paying 1.99 for a .49 cent package of cream cheese. We've all been bent over the stump, but it probably been hardest on the poor. That these people have the gall to call themselves Christians is what amazes me. I pray to god that a day of reckoning is coming for all they've done to this country to bring it down.

Pro
1) Protected us from Islam Fascists*
2) Caught Sadaam
3) Restored faith in family values*
4) Reversed the recession*
5) Kept inflation in check*
*Not actually true
This is just a recap of all the 'positive' responses here. So essentially, the answer is-- he caught Sadaam. Of course, it's been proved that Sadaam was no danger to us; just a ruthless, evil dictator.
A pathetic track record.
If only back in November 2000, when he lost the election to Gore, and his little brother Jebediah called him from Florida and said "Don't worry about that. I can get this election back for you," he'd said, "No, thanks. Gore won fair and square, bro." Imagine how many lives and money it would have saved. Not to mention the years (generations, actually) it's going to take to restore the good name of our country in the rest of the world. If only...

What have YOU done for America?
I may not believe Bush has our best interest at hand and may not even believe he is the best president. I sure don't like the fact that our money is being thrown away either.
BUT I do believe that everybody has to have someone to blame for everything that happens in the world. Why not blame the president?
I don't think it would matter who was president. He will always be the 1st to blame for everything.
And it is easy when your not in any position to make such difficult decisions.
So instead of criticizing Bush for his faults why don't YOU figure out a way to get your point across and maybe make a difference.
It only takes one voice to get the ball rolling.

Drawing a blank....
...which is why he'll occupy the bottom of the historic barrel of American presidents and their administrations.
This is what can happen when you serve 2 presidential terms without ever having actually won a single election.
But his own supporters finally spoke up on Election Day with a loud and clear 'You're OUTTA here!'

1) Protect us from Islamofascists.
2) Reverse a recession in record time despite several aggravating factors.
3) kept inflation in check.
Pretty good track record in my opinion.
