Nope. He has a 24% approval rating...

Most people of goodwill and intelligence understand that he has mismanaged the war on terror in general and the war in Iraq in particular, hence the poor approval ratings-yet Americans don't revile and hate him as they do in most of Europe. He is not a bad person. And he is honest. For a politician, that is.
I believe the same to be true about Tony Blair in the UK. I don't think a majority of people there hate him-how can you?He has been a true statesman-serving his country faithfully for 10 years or so. He revived the British economy although many people will say Gordon Brown gets the credit there. But in the UK as in the US people get impatient with dragged out wars so he steps down being unpopular. He deserves better.

People that murder are bad (some might use stronger language but live in a society that is crushing and punshing their freedom of speech). Bush and Gepetto (see VP of USA) command mass murder. Maybe we should ask the citizens of Iraq or those people in the WTC towers on 9/11, those that helped physically clean up 9/11... oh wait, alot of them are dead.

He's a black hearted bastard. The educated, enlightened ones among us who see through his facade despise him thoroughly. He personifies the very worst of what Capitalism can be.Those who profess to like him are to be pitied. I'm sure Tony Blair has his loyal cadres in Uk also, so you know what I'm saying.

Yes, everyone I know likes him and respects him. We are disgusted with how the liberal media distorts everything he says and does. They have manipulated the people into believing lies about him. He has done a lot of good for our country and has re established dignity to the White House. He as protected our country, improved our economy. He's lowered taxes, stopped partial birth abortion, has budgeted more funding for environment protection than any other president,and lowered unemployment. Thats to name a few.

I like and respect him because he is a man you can depend on. He is not wishy washy and doesn't pander to whomever is his audience at the time is why a lot of people don't. No human is perfect and I don't expect him to be. I also think you could get a lot worse than Tony.

I believe Bush's support is somewhere around 25%.

He is the laughing stock of the world. Certainly, he's laughing all the way to the bank.
He cannot wait for his Presidency to over so he can retire somewhere to write his multi-million dollar memoir.
Have you checked out his approval ratings recently.
Pitiful.

We don't like him in the states.
Many would like his head on a plate.
Impeachment hopes way too late.
Many uninformed thinks he's great.
Can't wait for 2008.
