Do or don't you like President George W. Bush and why?

Answer 1

Don't like Bush. He has used an agenda of fear and of lies to further his own agenda of religion. He uses a bully pulpit to try and instill fear into other nations instead of using actual diplomacy and negotiations. His work ethic is pathetic at best. His morals are flexible. His true call is that of a whore. He has whored the office of the White House to the Oil industry and whomever can buy him off. Bush will, no doubt, be the WORST President in US history.

Answer 2

I am not a fan of President Bush for many reasons. The first is that he clearly makes decisions and then tries to find evidence to justify that decision rather than waiting for the facts to come in before making such a decision (Iraq).

He often will go against the grain when clear evidence proves that the plan of action is backfiring. The tax cuts for the rich and the impact on the economy, the war in Iraq, etc. It seems as though he would rather let the whole ship crash than admit he read the map wrong to change directions.

The final reason I do not like President Bush is the same reason I do not like many politicians. They simply make appeals to emotion. A true conservative would not want the government to infringe upon liberty and would support rights for all people, however the "new conservatives" have changed the meaning to anything not about Jesus isn't conservative. Liberal has become a bad word and is seen by the non political savvy person as supporting hedonism when it actually promotes more Christian/Religious values than true conservatism.

Answer 3

I think he is an ok president. Not great, ok. He did the right thing in Afganistan and Iraq although he should have used more force from the get-go. The tax cuts stimulated the economy to all time highs but he has been terrible on the borders. He is a very moral man but also a poor public speaker.

Answer 4

I like President Bush as a person, I think he tries to do what is best in his mind. I do not always agree with his choices. He has made some very good decisions in the past few years, just the Iraq war stands out as so horrible people usually can't find the good. I think he is a wonderful husband and father and down deep a good person.

Answer 5

i fully support Bush's motives in not only Iraq, but in Iran and other places in the Middle East too...

However, i dont support Bush's troop surge.. well i do.. but i would like to see it change...

i dont like the idea of it being a surge... fix the problem then leave.. thats the democrats policy on Iraq.. and it shouldnt be the Presidents plan to secure Baghdad.. Troop Increase... not Troop Surge and go home..

Also, i would like to see another 23,000 US troops stationed in Afghanistan to fight back against the growing Taliban in Pakistan and Afghanistan... Dont just support your troops.. support your allies troops too. As the largest military in NATO, we have the duty to lead and support as much as possible, our allies troops..

i would also like to see another 30-50,000 troops deployed in Iraq... no not just to secure Iraq, which it will easly accomplish, but to tell Iran that enough is enough... put a gun to the side of Iran's head and ask them if they REALLY want to do something stupid...
With tensions in Eastern Europe flairing to the point where Russia is ready to go to war with Europe + America... war is right around the corner... and the sooner we take out Iran and Iran's WMDs... the sooner we can deal with Russia + China...

Station our troops in the Middle East before its too late...
we can either do it now, before Iran/Russia strikes...
or we can do it after and be at a great strategic disadvantage.

I also dont like how he often shrugs off the immigration debate and allows the democrats to just badger the public's opinion with propaganda...

However, if he did start to restrict immigration and remove all government funding for illegal immigrants... i could see how he would lose a lot of support from moderates and independents...

of which the Republicans desperately need to defend against the Democrats..

so id give him a B+/A-
Its like the White House's media advisor has said... We wont know for sure how successful this president has been for about 10-20 more years.

Answer 6

Despise him. Too many answers why, but briefly:

1. He doesnt believe in Democracy. If he did, he would have accepted defeat in 2000 when the popular vote was CLEARLY for Gore and he knew that a recount of the entire state of Florida would have given Gore the electoral vote too. He also chooses to ignore the will of the majority of this country on the issue of the war in Iraq.

2. He is a liar.

3. He is delusional. He believes that God put him in office. That scares me.

Answer 7

I like Bush's sense of resolve.

I dislike his sense of resolve in the face of overwhelming analysis that should cause him to reconsider. Rather than restructure his (and America's) war with Iraq and listen to others' analysis, which accurately foresaw our current failure, Bush listened to Dick Cheney and that dummy sycophant Rumsfeld and declared war.

Bush is a horrible, horrible leader, because he is not a leader.

Answer 8

Yes I like him. He is a good Christian man, good family man, and doesn't flip flop according to "popular vote". I believe he had the right idea going into Iraq and I do believe we should still be there. I just wish he would crack down on illegals here in the US. End of story...

Answer 9

I don't like his policy's.I did like the tax cuts.

My problem with him is he's a guy born with a silver spoon in his mouth and is out of touch with reality.Most people I know like this are democrats.He doesn't believe in small government.

Answer 10

i like Curious George W Bush as much as I like finding a penny on the street.
