Bush and his Administration are incompetent in 2 ways (and ONLY 2 ways):
1. Not really conservative
2. Failure to communicate why they do what they do.
I like that Bush is stubborn (we all loved Slick Willy for that same reason), but he is just not effective in telling us why we need to stick with his policies. I think in this day and age of open access communications, not opting for the optimal solution is OK, but you just need to tell everyone why you went with this option. Clinton was brilliant at that, he would be ranked 21 in the list of Presidents (due to his policies) except for that ability which probably puts him in the top 10. Bush is probably also 21 on the list, but if he can't explain to a simpleton like me why he is taking a course of action, imagine what it must seem like to the smart people? This article is a prime example.
Oh and just so you all know, I have been a registered Republican since 1977 and have never voted for a Democrat, so I am not a Clinton fan.

Well, because, in our opinions, he is incompetent and doing the wrong things. We went into a war with barely enough proof of weapons of destruction. We went into Iraq for no reason. (No. They weren't the ones that bombed us on 9/11.) And then we ruined peoples lives by killing innocent people, leaving families without homes or places to go, and bringing violence into a country that didn't deserve it. That is why a lot of people are against Bush.

There is not enough room or time to examine all of his mistakes. Have you ever seen the popular "Bushisms"? He is the most incompetent, inept person to ever occupy the big leather swivel chair in the the Oval Office, without exception.

Read Al Gore's: The Assault on Reason it explains the whole rotten bad apple in great detail.

Because objective reality actually exists. By any rubic the Bush Junta has proven that it has the Ex-Lax touch and the movers and shakers of the GOP are both dishonest and incompetent. You can't fool all of the people all of the time! No kiddin!

he isn't incompetent...he is slick. He secured his families fortune and that of his political allies with this war. He was chomping at the bit to invade Iraq based on any type of information.

Personally I think it is because he ignored national security and terrorism until AFTER we were attacked!

If a thought came into his head it would die of loneliness.
