I didn't realize there'd be so many who blame others for Bush's failures.

Man...what is up with all of the conservatives out there. All of the things that have gone wrong during the past 7 years have been because Bush has LIED. There are alot of issues that needed tending to but the way he went about it just totally screwed everything up. The Iraqi war...come on.SOOOOO many innocent kids are being killed each and every day for what...Bin Laden? Terrorists? Nope. Bush's need to put millions of dollars into his buddies in the oil industries pockets. 9/11 may have not been preventalble by any means...but maybe if bush had his head out of his you know what we may have been for warned.
Where is Bin Laden? Where are the Weapons of Mass Destruction? Where is the threat? We have causes the treat and the hatred by having bush as our president. We need to bring out kids home put them back where they belong...with their families. Thanks pres. bush for ruining America and killing America's youth. If he were so FOR saving Iraq, why has he not pushed for his daughters to enlist? Thats just my opinion :)

Not sending enough troops to Iraq in the beginning of the invasion. If he had better planned the aftermath from the fall of Saddam's regime, this war would be over.
As for:
bin Laden - He is nothing more than a figure head. The complete eradication of al-qaeda from the face of the Earth is what is needed, not just bin Laden.
Increased terrorism - ??? I haven't heard of another attack in the States.
Staggering debt - the debt has been growing since the war of 1812. This can hardly be put all on Bush's shoulders, so stop trying.
Increase in government - While I do not advocate an increase in government control during peacetime, I do understand during times of war. If his policies are not removed in the future, then we have a problem.
9/11 - The attacks on 9/11 are a very small part of a very big problem facing the entire world today. I think Bush has held up well in the face of this problem.
Anthrax attacks - I would not know if he has made "ZERO" progress on this front. I am not privy to such information.
Opinion:
It could be worse; Gore or Kerry could be President. A thought scarier than anything Bush has done.

He has been rescued, from facing the consequences of his decisions and actions, throughout his entire life. He has chosen not to thrive; by that, I mean, he has chosen not to immerse himself in meaningful emotional or intellectual growth. He has chosen to remain a child; a smug, myopic bully. He probably regards not being able to give Dad a grandson, his biggest failure. [Iraq will be an historical comma?!?]

To be honest,I feel he could have picked his cabinet and advisors better.Especially the defense secetary.Donald Rumsfeld is an arrogant j.a.c.k.a.s.s. and Robert Gates is even worse.Colin Powell was a good secretary of state.Condi Rice is ok but he could have done better.And I have never been fond of Dick Cheney.And I support GWB for the most part but it is not just about him.It is like a head coach in sports,you can be a great coach but if you surround yourself with a crappy staff then your team will not win.

Iraq, he invaded another country overthrew their leader and created a civil war. Did something his father didn't do because he knew it would lead to a mess. Now, we may have no solution to the problem.

Your right somewhat! They are pointing fingers at Bush for getting us into a war over oil with a people that had done nothing to America, and "yes" Bush should have gotten his facts straight, and came up with a provable reason to go to war with Saddam so that he could legally kill the enemy of his Daddy, but as usual he blundered his way to war! Then to make matter's worse, Bush didn't forsee the enormous cost of sending us to war, nor did he seem to really care, nor did he understand the amount of innocent lives that would be taken as a result. Is it his fault? "YES" it is! Bush should have come up with a plan for the gradual withdrawal of our troops once Saddam was captured, but "no" he now wants complete control of Iraq as a way of taunting his enemy. We have no business there, and we should let those people settle thier own affairs! We had a Civil War in this Country to settle our affairs, and now we have a better Government as a result, and a consistent way of life, that recognizes the diversity of the multi-racial/ multi-cultural people of this Country. We still have a few problems that we need to workout such as: Erradicating racism completly or legally, Gun control, Court reform, automatic/ systematic Minimum Wage raises, and enacting Police anti-brutality laws.
It seems apparent that we need a new Leader, as Bush has failed us as he seemingly has had "No Plan" that has been productive, practical, and prosperous for the Middle and Lower Classes of people in this Country. His policies have ultimately been very divisive and destructive to the welfare of the masses, without posing any suitable alternatives to our current or previous situations. Under the Bush administration, crime is rampant, the economy is faltering, and our response to our own people in crises( Katrina and Rita) is atrocious, and was thought to be blamed on racism/ republicanism/ compassionate conservatism! We can't truly blame anything on the Democrat's cause the Bush Admintsration has largely undone most of the Clinton Adminstration's efforts and replaced them with their own. Wake up AMERICA! It's time for change once again!!!

Probably the fact that the world is a much more dangerous place because of his misguided policies.

No Child Left Behind --great idea, totally unfeasible, and designed to undermine public education so the public will clamor for vouchers.
