Answer 1

1. Successfully executed two wars in the aftermath of 9/11/01: Afghanistan and Iraq. 50 million people who had lived under tyrannical regimes now live in freedom.
2. Saddam Hussein is now been exicuted. His two murderous sons are dead. All but a handful of the regime's senior members were killed or captured.
3. Leader by leader and member by member, al Maida is being hunted down in dozens of countries around the world. Of the senior al Qaeda leaders, operational managers, and key facilitators the U.S. Government has been tracking, nearly two-thirds have been taken into custody or killed. The detentions or deaths of senior al Qaeda leaders, including Khalid Shaykh Muhammad, the mastermind of 9/11, and Muhammad Atef, Osama bin Laden's second-in-command until his death in late 2001, have been important in the War on Terror.

Answer 2

The dems and media are desperately attempting to cover some thing good about his presidency. in case you're informed many times "he's undesirable", even with the data there'll be the tendancy to trust that. those who do not care to envision data and those of decrease IQ will take in the rant. it is what they are relying on. He has achieved many great things for the period of his time period, yet with the vile the media and dems spew it isn't difficulty-free to be sure truth.

Answer 3

Oh my yes! His mistakes got the neocons kicked out of congress and he has single handedly reduced the population of iraq by so many people getting killed there as a result of his incompetence.
He has also torn up the constitution in the name of national security, and proved once in for all that the ONLY person he listens to is Cheney.

Answer 4

Bush did several good things he makes me laugh whenever he talks he should be a comedian http://politicalhumor.about.com/library/blbushdumbquotes.htm

"See, free nations are peaceful nations. Free nations don't attack each other. Free nations don't develop weapons of mass destruction." —Milwaukee, Wis., Oct. 3, 2003

One of his hits

Answer 5

On thanksgiving, he made a speech about how he wasn't going to have the turkey that they brought out killed and then he pet him. Other than that....can't think of anything else.

Answer 6

Lowered taxes, toppled the Taliban, toppled Saddam's regime, those are first things that come to mind.

Answer 7

I don't know if it's good or not but the security that our nations forces offers (that where almost non-existent during Clinton) has enabled hateful people to sit on their butts and bitc* and whine about others.

Answer 8

only if he has referred to his being out of office in a year. that would be a good thing. Of course someone would have to tell him. I doubt he'd be able to read it out loud.

Answer 9

Well, he's made some other countries try to get over their squabbles and unite...against us...

Ummm, I'm sure there must be something.

Answer 10

Not really. He never vetoed one piece of pork-barrel legislation
