Answer 1

I don't think there's a clear definite answer about whether the American people are for or against President Bush. Obviously, as seen by the media, many hate him and the job he has done. However, if you go to the midwest and more of the farm areas, they still love him. Also, some conservatives will always love Bush no matter as long as he doese not tamper with the conservative position.

Yet, as Bush has done more and more unpopular things, he is losing the support of his base. Previously, many "Christian" conservatives supported him for his moral beliefs. But, in a recent study by Time, Bush is losing ground in that area too as some "Christians" are seeing Bush failing in the war in Iraq and are tired of him regardless of what his moral stance is. I think that a major part Bush's previous support is slowly draining as the war continues to get worse. I grant that some businessmen may support Bush because the economy's not too bad, but the majority of the country is getting tired of the war, regardless of whether they support him or not. Some prominent previous supporters of Bush going to war are now going against him.

So to answer your question, people don't hate Bush as much as they are frustrated by his inability to solve the problem in Iraq and the Middle East in general. As long as that continues, Bush's popularity will continue to drop.

Answer 2

I am for my president! I go by facts and if you do and not by the media then you will see there are allot more positives then negatives. If you heard no problems then he would not be doing anything. That is true about all things. Don't do something and there really nothing to say do something and there is always someone who don't like it.

Also, a person is never perfect, so don't dwell on the 10 or 12 bad things when the good things are well in the thousands.

Answer 3

I personally do not approve of Mr Bush's policies. I did not vote for him, nor any other Republican.

BUT

I am not against him, I disagree with his beliefs, but I hope that in his last two years things will turn around. Not for him, not for his party, but for my country (and for the world).

I am old enough to have seen America at its best and its worst, and right now it is not so good, but I want it to be better, even if George Bush has something to do with it.

I will disapprove of most everything he supports, but I dont want to see him fail, because when that happens WE all suffer. I want my country to succeed and I want my country to be great again.

Its called being the loyal opposition. I want my party to win, but pray the other party does not fail.

Answer 4

Against - always vehemently against.

As for the person who said they understand the mission and the issues - do you really understand the effects of economic imperialism, or just pretending to?

As for him just being human and just making a mistake, right-o, but you can't just say "ooops!" in the face of human destruction. That why presidents are held to a higher standard than the rest of us - they are not allowed to make stupid mistakes.

As an American living in the Middle East, I see the effects of this war everyday. Those of you that regurgitated what you saw on CNN in your answer of support are the very reason that the US is going to hell in a handbasket, and are exactly the ones who should sign up for combat in the war that you can so ignorantly and easily support from 10,000 miles away. Put your money where your mouth is.

Answer 5

I am for. Yes, he has made mistakes - he is only human. The truth is that the only reason it seems that the majority is against him is because those who oppose him are the loudest. They yell more, make the most noise, and complain the loudest - and the media in the US leans towards the liberal point of view - anyone who is honest will admit that. However, those who support him spoke with their votes - which is why he won a second term. He did not go into Iraq for any self-centered reasons - and it was NOT for oil!!!
The reason a democracy will fail in Iraq has nothing to do with Bush- it is because of the extreme religious behaviors. The 2 sides hate each other and will not work side-by-side.

Answer 6

in case you particularly think of Mahmoud gained in Azeri factors against an Azeri after he has moved for Iran's closest ties with the Armenians, the sworn enemies of each and every Azeri and a people who brutally massacred thousands of Azeris at Khojali on an identical time as illegally occupying Azerbaijans territory interior the Nagorno Karabakh i do no longer comprehend what to tell you. If he had gained the election, then how did all of us comprehend the outcomes so promptly whilst they have been hand ballots counted like in a classification election. Why is it that they declare extra human beings voted than have been eligible voters? and the way is it that Rezee and Karroubi went from having 30% of the vote to having 2%, with virtually all of their vote share being attributed to Mahmoud. it is all a farce and my in basic terms be apologetic approximately is that we did no longer protest in this united states against Bush in 2000 whilst he stole the election, yet a minimum of his election theft became available in comparison to this farce the place it is so obvious

Answer 7

Bush lost the popular vote when he became president (by rule of the Supreme Court, not by the People nor the electoral college); currently his popularity rating is in the toilet.
Overall, the US citizens are, and have been, against Bush. Only a few actually support him.

Answer 8

First you must clarify that you want answers from people in the United States. You too, are American since you are in South America. Second, many people who voted for Bush in the last election voted for him because they saw him as some sort of god. Next Bush himself told us that God told him "that it was all right to invade Iraq" -- (that should have given us a clue about this man and his beliefs You see, he uses religion to confirm the reasons for all of his actions).
Third, the people in the United States who do not support Bush are no longer afraid to express their dislike for this man.You see, even as he is always smiling and shaking his shoulders and repeating himself over and over again, these things no longer matter. He has gotten this country into a lot of trouble, i.e. we have far more enemies than we had PRIOR to the beginning of his first term as president.
Bush is a Lame Duck. It no longer matters what he thinks. He is trying hard to salvage himself as an important legacy. But it will never be......

Answer 9

There are many like GW Bush and Cheney who have never been in war. They are both draft dodgers, they know nothing of war. Until you been there people like Bush should not be considered a voice of wisdom on war. Gearald Ford called Iraq a "mistake".
Many of the troops in Iraq also agree, More troops will not help there. Spc. Don Roberts of Pania, Colo. Just gave a interview in Iraq. Sgt. Josh Keim in Iraq said "Nothings going to help, it's a religious war and were caught in the middle." Pfc. Richard Grieco, said "it's hard to see how daily missions in Baghdad make a difference". 1st Lt. Sean McCaffrey of Selton Conn. said "there never going to be as effective as we are". I trust the troops on the ground to know what's really going down.

Answer 10

I am For....He releaved a country that was oppressed by a tyrantical dictator, and that left Iraq very shaken and ustable. Bush may have made many rocky decisions, but his intentions were for himself and not of the Iraqi people...Now, he is putting the exicution of Saddam in the hands of the Iraqies and its up to them to grow as a soverighn nation...Bush, with or without the support of the american people, he will do his best to handle this ustable situation.
