Yes it is the policy which we should criticize and the actions . We should never use the title President when referring to Bush . George Bush is not worthy of the office as he has broken his oath to defend our constitution .

No, good thing about America everyone has a voice. To criticize the President is a voice that needs to be heard. So many factors in the job of President, (he) takes the heat for others (he) chose that "fail". So the criticism much of the time is indirect failure.

No, the President should never be above criticizm. I cannot think of any Presidency that couldn't be criticized in any way.
What is wrong is attacking the President with false claims, or undermining the Presidents efforts as Commander in Chief during a time of War (and thus enboldening the enemy).
Good question.

It is an American citizen's duty to criticize the President. He/she is supposed to represent the will of the people and is in control of the tax money collected from the people.
I find it highly hypocritical of all the right wingers who say it is unpatriotic to criticize Bush but they had no problem with trashing the whole Clinton family including their young daughter and pets.

It is the right and responsibility of every American to critique elected officials. Having said that, it is important to the health of our society and culture to do so respectfully, logically, and responsibly. What passes for civic discourse these days is shameful; it does not reflect poorly on our leaders, but on our citizenry. Keats wrote in his poem "The Second Coming" the following lines at the end of the first stanza:
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
I find these lines as applicable now as when Keats penned them in 1921. It is a sad commentary, but one we can change.

It is wrong to manufacture lies about the President to serve your own agenda. It is wrong to divide the country when the country is at war. In general, criticize away, but remember the four fingers pointing back.

Of course not. Our government was created in part because of the lack of free speech in England, the near tyrannical control the King took over his people. Just because Bush was voted in as president doesn't mean EVERYONE has to agree with what he does, says, or thinks. It is our right and privilege as U.S. citizens to disagree or agree with our president as we see fit.

No but you should think and respond how would you do things differently! And then write the people who you think can make your plans and decisions come to life! Take action and do what you know to be right!

I don't think it's wrong as long as it isn't hurting anyone or making threats. People on tv do it all the time on news shows.

Not according to Theo Roosevelt, (among MANY others of the like). He had THE job.
