Since he is at the top of the chain of command, he is responsible for killing more hostle militant Islamists than all of the other presidents in U.S. history combined. Is that a good track record?

yes/no
yes - he has done a good job of protecting America's borders, and he has done a good job securing Iraq and building up Iraq's government + police/army
no - this is somewhat out of his control, but im sure he can and in time will accomplish. However, the fact that we are still having to kill so many insurgents means there are still a growing number of insurgents in Iraq and other parts of the Middle East... and i think, as Bush would most likely agree, a 'good track record' means we have stopped the hostile insurgents from destroying the Iraq Government and the rest of their targets and we have stopped the hostile insurgents influence and propaganda in the area...
search and destroy.. not just search..
extinct and irrevivable..

end the maturing technique & then your opinion will recommend some thing to those who've lived via 13 distinctive administrations of presidency. President Bush is plenty smarter than you supply him credit. first of all he replaced into elected two times - if he's as dumb as you think of how dumb might the voters be. He graduated from Yale & Harvard & i anticipate you're no longer attending the two - i presumed no longer. If he replaced right into a guy or woman who allowed others to think of for him, he might merely supply up & do what you & the Democrats opt for him to do. there is not any benefit for him to proceed to argue different than to save the Iraqis & the honour of the u . s . a . when you consider that he can no longer run back & says he would not care what historic previous says of his presidency. Why do you think of you recognize perfect even regardless of the indisputable fact which you're no longer priviledged to the intel that the President reads & hears daily? Your conceitedness shows stupidity no longer intelligence.

No this track record you speak of is of no good but this don't make him at all all bad nor unsuccessful!
He has helped the world leaders view America differently and yes this is good for those whom ancestors has suffered from the violence, intolerance and prejudice since white man has arrived on the northern continent! It helps them see and view America as the blacks , Indians and other minority (Asians) which are 3 continents of people to chat share there peoples horror stories and begin to become allies with one another alienating themselves with the USA and begin to plot on revenge or justice either will do! think about it it. that's 3 continents on the face of the world America has abused and mistreated its forefather. and historians know every single incident this has happened to after 100 of years there is all ways retaliation for the abusers and the ones seeking revenge or just to annihilate a place do. y'all think on this please try thinking differently Bush has started the wheels to turning for devastation to come to the USA.
Now dig this Yes bush has been a successful Commander in Chief in bringing America down to its knees! Also Many are sitting and thanking him for his ignorance of this so true fact wow he is a hot mess!

Well, that is remarkable, but, there is one good thing George W. Bush has accomplished, since becoming Resident, and that is, that the National Guard is no longer a means to escape combat duty, in the US Army, the way it was, back in Ol' George "AWOL" Bush's day!!!!

I think so. What are you a Ji-had? He has faced alot of difficult issues and situations in the middle East that he has dealt well with, what would you have him do? Plus anyone can criticize the President and use them as the scapegoat for their problems so if you do that, don't think of yourself as great political thinker or an analyst of world events, you're not, you are a dumbass!

Hmmm... we've run up the deficit again. Our international reputation is tarnished, that will take some time to recover. We're 42nd best in infant mortality, 46th in life expectancy, Our trade deficit is enormous. We lost a city. The gap between rich and poor grows daily. And that's not even mentioning the war.
I don't know... mixed bag?

NO
Iraq is redux Vietnam. The major players in the Bush regime are many of the same people who were around during the Nixon administration. Donald Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney, for example were aides to Gerald Ford who followed and pardoned Nixon. They tried to persuade president Ford to veto the enhanced Freedom of Information Act. Back then they seem to have recognized that the truth would haunt them. It still does. They preferred to operate with impunity then as they do now. What can one expect from the same cast of characters? They were sick then, when Nixon was in office, and, they are sick now.
History has a way of repeating itself as the observation goes. Sooner, or, later, as the tide continues to turn, the people will respond to the pervasive sickness that permeates this regime and the land, and do something about it. The populace will once again become sick and tired of the sickness. When that happens, and I do believe that day is coming, a second president in my lifetime will be leaving the White House in disgrace. The people will line the streets and salute farewell to the commander-in-thief in similar fashion to how they "welcomed" him on "inauguration" day, June 20, 2001. The difference this time will be, however, that George W. Bush will be leaving the White without legitimately having been elected in the first place.

He's been very successful at achieving his goals, which was to depose Saddam and prevent Iraq from forming a government that the US does not approve of.
Whether those are valid goals is a different question.

yes he`s been successful in making sure that none of the rich, powerful republicans send their kids to Iraq to get killed. But guess what .... what goes around comes around. What Bush and his party is doing to get innocent Iraqis killed, and our brave innocent troops killed, I will be the first one to pray that they all get their boys killed in the same manner. Guess what GOD has all the power to do it, afterall Bush and his neocons` empire is no bigger than Pheros...

Speaking strictly as a military Commander-in-Chief, he has failed miserably. This country has been laboring under his direction since 2003 in Iraq and we're stuck in the middle of a civil war for our efforts.
