if everyone hates bush then how come people voted for him?

Answer 1

I hate my ex now ....but i dated and married her....need i say more?

Answer 2

Many people do not hate Bush and never did. I voted for him and considering the choices available, it was the better choice in my opinion.

I don't agree with everything he has done, in fact, I'm annoyed by several things he's done financially, but I know Kerry would not have done things better, in fact, I believe he would have spent even more money (with or without war).

The thing so many people forget is that very few presidents won the presidency with the popular vote. Lincoln had less than 40% of the vote, yet no one questions his legitimacy as president.

Part of the real problem is that the press is so liberal and so full of Bush hatred that the general public believes everything they read and think "everyone" hates Bush.

Answer 3

I am not wealthy or influential, but I voted for Pres. Bush
and I am not sorry. Everyone doesn't hate Bush. If you listen
to all the people who call in to Rush's radio show, you will see
there are plenty who still like him. Even the military guys like
him that I saw interviewed on Tv in IRAQ>I am ashamed
that those who don"t like Bush act so antiAmerican. We should be behind whom
ever was elected and Bush was elected. He is a gentleman,
a wonderful family in the White House, and he has done
what he thought was the right thing to do. All Congress agreed
with him sending troops to Iraq until they saw this was a hard
project to win and then the Libs all changed their mind. Well,
' you can't change your mind in the middle of a war and at
least Bush understands this. I'm tired of a wishy-washy
Congress. At least Bush sticks to his convictions. If you don't
like that, too bad....he has another two years in office. Be sure
you don't put in someone even worse than you think he is come
the next election. Palosi is not that person, nor Sharpton, nor
Kerry, nor Edwards, nor Hillary so who the heck are you gonna
vote in? You don't have any winners either.

Answer 4

The liberals are out once again with misinformation first have all Bush receive the majority of the popular vote 51% it is easy to look up.

Second they are quickly to state they did not vote for him so I guess he does not represent them. It is funny how Clinton who never receive 50% of the vote in both elections (go look it up) you never saw conservatives say he is not our president.

I think once a man has won the presidency he deserve all the support from the voters if not then all you get is a bunch of whinny bickering people which projects weaknest both to our allies and enemies.

Answer 5

Pretty simple answer. Not everyone hates Bush. It is a known fact that the people that dislike something have the loudest voice and the most attentive press. I voted for Bush. Do I hate him?...no. Did he make mistakes?...yes. Do I value his advisors?...no. As far as I am concerned we needed someone like him during 9/11. I voted for him agin becuase of this. Maybe my mistake. I would not have wanted a soft president like Kerry.

Answer 6

Bush didn't win the popular vote so the majority of Americans didn't vote for him. Bush won the electoral vote, which of course is just another way of cheating, just like the ballot incident in Florida four years earlier. (I suspect that Daddy paid out millions and made lots of promises to get the ignoramus reelected.) I did a survey awhile back asking people who they voted for and why. Nine out of ten who voted for Bush said it was because he is against abortion and that was the only reason. I am also against abortion, but I realize that it isn't the only issue that you need to look at when you choose your leaders. A shame more people didn't look at ALL of the issues.

Answer 7

I think its because they have had bush for so long, and they know how bush is going to do things. For an example (Not a good one but close):

If you went out of town for a weekend, and you need someone to take care of your house. Would you chose a complete stranger, or a person you've known for a long time?


That example should answer your question(s). I'm not saying bush is a good president, in fact, he is the reason why nature is dying. He is the idiot who started global warming. Lol, i just wish war would cease, and those who need help would be helped.

Answer 8

I don't care who is elected president, some one will start criticizing the job they do. It is a no win, thankless job that only a fool would want. You just have to figure out who is the less a fool and vote for that fool. I like Mr. Bush and would vote for him if he could run for a third term. He is the most sane fool out there right now.

Answer 9

Half the country did not vote for him and the electoral process in 2000 and 2004 in Ohio and Florida were tainted. In Ohio voting machines were removed in democratic areas to create long lines and in Florida over 90,000 people were incorrectly purged from the registered voter list by Kathryn Harris.

Answer 10

Only 53% of America hated him on Election Day. Things have really fallen apart since then. Karl Rove got the winning percentage by putting out the message, 'Don't judge him by his record. (Which was admittedly bad, even then.) Vote your values!" And a lot of people ignored his record to vote for someone who loves Jeezuz and who stroked them over their Culture War obsessions. Some of them are even sorry.

Answer 11

It's the greatest puzzle we have ever solved about the elections. People don't think much when they vote. Sometimes just want to revenge... Or just hope and believe what they promise. Politics is the worst thing in our life.
