"The national debt — the total accumulation of annual budget deficits — is up from $5.7 trillion when President Bush took office in January 2001 and it will top $10 trillion sometime right before or right after he leaves in January 2009."

BushIsSmarterThanYou--that statement you repeat to yourself in the mirror each day may be true for you,
but I even doubt that.
I can, however, see you've done no research and are best at blindly following.

Bush is awesome! He has presided over other records as well.
- Record low US dollar
- Record high foreclosure rate
- Record high oil prices (due in part to the devalued US dollar)
- AG with record number of "I do not recall"
- Record growth in the size of government
- Record decrease in health care coverage
- Record number of illegal aliens
- Record number of Repub reps and admin persons quitting
- 2nd worst approval rating (Nixon still holds record)
Bush is the man...

People want to blame GW... for the number of foreclosers happening now. Back in the 90's, when the economy was slipping due to higher taxes, and everyone thought things were great, they overextended themselves. The liberal media, daily told you how grand things were, and you bought it. But along side the commercials for Viagra, were commercials for debt consolodation loans...So people borrowed against thier homes to get out of the debt they just got themselves into... several times over. Economy is great....remember
Now lets go to the commercials for a chance to get into the oil futures... Remember those?... I do, so you bet the price of oil is going up, which it does... and you make money on it.
George may not be the most articulate of Presidents, but he sure has brought this country back from some sad times. And he won't be disbared for perjury in a grand jury investigation!

Sorry, yet historic previous writers are already putting him interior the destiny textbooks as palms down the WORST president united states of america has ever had. that's in step along with his ineffectiveness, his blatanly offender task of government contracts to Haliburton, his blatant lies which began the Iraq conflict, and the destruction of the american financial gadget.

US voters made a big mistake in 2004 re-electing Bush. Let's move on and do better next time. I ask that of Republicans and Democrats.

Either he's great enough to fool so many people
or so many people are just that damned ignorant.
I haven't figured it out yet.

Apparently, America loves those who have the abilities to break new records.

Better then Clinton who sold us out to China, Let Bin Laden walk when they had him targeted, dragged America into the Balkans, Did nothing after the cole and the embassies were attacked, did nothing after the first WTC attack in '93, tried to change the deffinition of is, lied to the American people and a grand jury, opened us up to NAFTA......
The list goes on and on and on.....
With what Bush was given months into his term and what he has endured I say he is doing a great job. It takes a great leader to make the right move even if that move is unpopular

Nightmare, what is bigger his waist size or his IQ. The neo-cons will tell you the debt is good or the socialists fault.
But America didn't you vote him in twice. Well, at least once for sure.
