because of the millions of ignorant people who vote because of one thing they like about someone. for example, some old hunter who likes him because he supports the NRA. clinton didnt, but you didnt see hunting get outlawed while he was in office. or pro-life people, who voted for bush because he was against abortion, yet he hasnt outlawed it while hes been in office. people dont understand that these basic beleifs are views of the party they represent(democrat or republican), not their own platforms. i guess as long as retards vote, theyll elect retards

I don't hate him. I honestly think he meant well. I also think he misled the country about the Iraq War but even that I could overlook. He's done a terrible job managing the war and continues to do so. His supporters try to blame the liberals and the media but that just doesn't wash. Past presidents have had opposition to their policies and never pointed the finger at anyone else. Truman also had a very low approval rating but like a man he insisted that "the buck stops here."
George Bush has been too quick to pass the buck and blame others for his mistakes and that's just unacceptable.

1) There are those who STILL thing Al Gore won in 2000, despite ALL the FL recounts, including those done by liberal newspapers found that Bush DID win FL.
2) Some have the even crazier idea that Bush somehow "stole" OH in 2004. This despite the fact that his winning margin in OH in 2004 was about the same as JFK's NATIONAL margin in 1960.
Many are still seething about the Republicans winning Congress in 1994. They are poor losers, but as 06 showed, even worse winners.

Folks don't like'm cuz he's too much like his 'gran-pappy'...ole' Prescott Bush a convicted 'NAZI' supporter !
The reason he 'won' 2 elections is simple...he cheated !
Do you really think ANY of the creeps on either side are really gonna help? The Democrats have been silenced by only the Devil knows what. I think that somebody got to them and SERIOUSLY THREATENED them! I wouldn't be suprised by ANYTHING NOW !

ALL presidents have their detractors. In president Bush's case, (personal opinion only) he doesn't seem to have the country's best interests at heart. His main focus seems to be the war in Iraq, and many domestic programs and agencies have suffered because of it. The food supply seems to be less safe, gas prices continue to rise (what happened to the oil in Texas and Alaska?), people are poorer, yet BILLIONS of dollars are poured into a war that we are taking heavy losses in. He seems bullheaded and unwilling to waiver or listen to the people of his country.

I do not think anyone hates the President personally just his administration and its policies.He won on a popular platform for security against an often manufactured and exaggerated threat for a genuine fear.

He isn't well liked because he isn't charismatic and he doesn't know what the heck he's doing. He's overwhelmed. He often looks confused. For goodness sake, he can't even get doors open half of the time. As for the two elections that he and his brother Jeb rigged/stole. . .He needs to go NOW.

People don't like him in my opinion because most people go with what is popular... And hating President Bush is what is popular right now... I've heard people who don't have the first clue about politics say they hate him.. And when you ask them why all they can say is "our gas prices and we're at war" DUH!!! Then try and get them to explain why they hate Bush for those things, they just scratch their heads and say because he's the president.. Ha Ha...

A bum off the streets should have been able to win the last election. Kerry is an idiot for letting that happen...as is the DNC.
