Dislike the current president. His actions point to him being power hungry. And he does not show respect to the constitution.

Wow I can't believe people still like Bush! I think he is a puppet, a liar, and doesn't care about anything but money and power. He didn't show up for a united nations meeting to discuss global warming stating that it wasn't necessary since, he was going to hold one in America instead. Why would it NOT be necessary? China and the U.S are some of the biggest contributers to global warming, and the countries like the Philippines and Africa are suffering. Let's not forget the California fires either. Bush also vetoed a law that would benefit child care. So yeah Bush is honorable, and what else? How so? Many people who supported Bush but have had their child, or husband or brother die in the war, are changing their minds.

Dislike, yet respect as any good American should.
Why? No diplomacy, my way or the highway type attitude, not easy to work with, no ability to compromise. Probably my worst criticism is his war-mongering rarely-factual rhetoric. No ability to sympathize with the common man from what I've seen. Had his father not been a powerful man, he'd be another nobody.

It’s sad when teachers promote anti-capitalism and pro-liberalism views on their students. Not surprising that 99 cents out of every dollar donated to Congress is given to the Democrat party. So many students trust teachers as being honest, but instead are promoting their political agenda on young gullible students
American Federation of Teachers
The American Federation of Teachers represents 1 million teachers, school staff, higher education faculty and other public employees. As one of the leading education groups on Capitol Hill, the federation lobbied heavily on President Bush’s education plan, beating back attempts to attach pro-voucher amendments.

I like the president of the USA because he is an honorable and decent man first. He changed the tone of the White House, restoring HONOR and DIGNITY to the presidency.
He has tried to spread a moral democracy around the world.
He has been prudent and just. I am not always in agreement with him, but there is noone who could hold a position like his and have everyone agree with his position 100% of the time.

I dislike the president.
In February 2000, I Joined the Navy, assuming that since there had been rumors of war since 1995, but no real problems, we would be able to keep peace for the four years I expected to be in the military.
I was onboard a ship, stationed in Hawaii, and it was like a dream come true. We went out to the middle east to enforce our sanctions, stopping twice in Austraila, and once on a small island along the way. In the gulf, we went to Bahrain, or Dubai every other week, even after the bombing of the USS Cole, and on the way home, we stopped at Australia twice, once in Thailand, and once on a small island. Once we got to Hawaii, we were scheduled to be in drydock for two years... That would be two years of shore time, in Hawaii. Our whole deployment to the gulf had lasted seven months.
Then September 11th happened, and Bush went ballistic... But no, not really. He didn't go insane or anything, he just saw a huge opportunity, and he took it.
At first, I thought he had just gone nuts, but I later began to see his plans. It meant more work for us. Our two year drydock was shortened to eight months (The last ship that had an eight month overhaul was the USS Scorpion, a nucelar submarine that went down with all hands a few weeks after their drydock period.)
Drydock was insane, the faster schedule meant that everyone had to work like crazy to make the ship ready. Hoses, wires, pipes, and duct-work snaked along the passages like a jungle. We could no longer close our doors. Workers were surly, demanding, and unforgiving. One group needed to stick a ventilation tube through a doorway to our storeroom overnight, when we told them we had to lock the door, they cut off the top of the door so we could close it with the tube in place. When they needed to get the tube out again, they cut the lock without telling us, and someone stole MILLIONS of dollars worth of electronic parts from our store room before we even knew the door needed a new lock. The workmanship was shoddy. Someone was welding in a new high-pressure water pipe that went up three decks, and they never welded the back of the joints. We found that out while we were sailing in the middle of pearl harbor. They shut off the toilets, and workers still used them. One guy used a cutting torch to put a hole in the ship so he could pee over the side.
When drydock was over, we went out again to the middle east. We headed straight there. A month into the trip, some guys told us they needed fifty pounds of cement. Why would you need cement on a ship? It's simple really, somebody had cut a crawl-hole from one of the sewage tanks into one of the fuel tanks. We couldn't let the two things mix together, but we couldn't weld it up, because there was fuel in there. Did that stop our mission? not at all. We just kept on sailing. We hadn't been able to order the parts we would need for the journey, because our computers were down during all of the dry dock period, so everything had to be ordered by hand. Some of our weapons systems didn't even work when we were in the gulf... or so the guys that needed parts for them told us...
What did we do in the gulf? Mostly we watched airplanes. Someone told us that the troops in Afghanistant had surrouned Osama at one point... and the next day, someone told us the troops surrounding Osama had been sent to Iraq.
Three days after Saddam Hussein was captured, our ship was given a new mission: to convoy the first supertanker of oil out of "a free" Iraq. Supertankers have at least 50,000 gallons of oil on them. They take way more than a week to fill up.
For this deployment, we were in the persian gulf for eleven months. In that time, we visited Bahrain twice, and Dubai once. On our way home, we stopped at a backwater port in India to help their airforce with exercises, once at singapore, and once in Guam.
Iraq has some of the worlds richest oilfields, second only to those of Kuwait. Now that oil was coming from a free Iraq, I thought maybe the gas prices would go down. When I had left to join the navy, gas was costing $1.95 a gallon. When I got back it cost $3.25 a gallon... and almost all of that money was going to Halliburton.
George Bush had an agenda in taking over iraq, and that agenda was to help Halliburton make huge proftis on oil. When gas prices were getting out of hand during the Clinton administration, Clinton looked into things, and the prices went down. In eight years of George Bush's presidency, he has not once looked into the gas prices, because he doesn't have to. He knows why they're so high, it's because that makes his friends the best profit.
