Answer:
Yes, he has made every citizen look intelligent. I feel brighter every time he opens his mouth no matter what side of this mouth he uses.
not one thing
am not american...
but i dont know why the hell did people voted for Bush!
A face tells many character about a person... so.. he looks like monkey. at least al gore looks better than him
When he dies I'll let you know
Wow its hard to believe you voted for him, lets go over your list;
Federal Budget; responsiblity of the congress;
National Security, I'll agree with your on bordern control, but since 9/11 we have been hit how many times?
Leading the Nation...who's harriet myers and why does she matter?
9/11 happened 9 months after he took office, while the planning begun 3 years before...but you soley blame him?
Health care? What has changed besides the wasteful medicine program (I give him a D there too).
War on Iraq; how can you give him an "F?" Name one military conflict the US has engaged in to this magnitude that ever went better? We've accomplished more in a short period of time then any organization in history; its pathetic that America can't learn from its history and realize what our government, men and women in service have done is amazing there.
For.Policy; Clinton use to use hand outs and photo ops to make other countries be happy, screw that; we are on better terms with more countries then ever before.
The medicaid prescription program seems to help about 25 percent of those that are signed up for it... that's probably the most successful program of his administration... I'll give him a "D" for that...
Oh, and if your rich, all the tax cuts you've been getting should probably get an "A" in then "wealthy taxation from the point of view of the wealthy" category
You're on target with the other points...
netjr: "who's harriet meyers?"... hahahahahah... that's golden
you forgot he also was not "getting" with ugly fat interns, its always nice to see the leader of your country "get" with an intern to raise her confidence, way to go Clinton!
He has one hot twin daughter that I would bang! The other one - no way. After 6 years of bush - Clinter never looked better.
Sorry, it escapes me! I can't think of ANYTHING Good GWB has done for us. We are much much worse off since he has been in office.
I am sad for the country........
I'm just going to make a couple comments cuz u don't know what you're talking about and/or you're blaming the wrong guy: 2. Illegal immigrants were out of control long before Bush was in office and now he is trying to right the illegal immigration, its the worthless liberals slowing that up. 3. how about blaming blanco and nagan for katrina, they have more direct service over the area, or is it cuz Bush is the 'racist' president who didn't want to help the complaining welfare blacks there? ha ha, nice try to blame him anyway. 4. 9/11 happened because clinton didnt do anything about the first attacks (he was too busy with monica or something) not Bush's fault, and apparently u forgot how he and Guiliani brought this country together after it happened. Now how about supporting our elected President and our troops? enough said!
Okay, I dislike what he has done with foreign policy, the War in Iraq (I wish we didn't go), and I believe we spend to much (much due to Iraq), so I complain about him a lot, but...I try not to be blinded by one party thinking, so with that, there are a bunch of things I do like:
A. I like lower taxes, and everyone complains about tax breaks for the rich, but regular people got them, too. If you reduce my tax burden, I am happy. Also, anyone can take advantage of the tax breaks, by saving money and investing in stocks. I started investing in stocks when my salary was $18K, it is easily do-able if you want to save, you just need to prioritize your life goals. Easy win there.
B. I like his position on illegal immigration, but I understand this is a divisive issue, so there is a lot of disagreement.
C. He has an energy plan, I just wish he would be more aggressive. For example, he has improved CAFE standards, but they are still fairly weak, mainly due to American car companies complaining. So, I guess he is trying to balance energy conservation with the health of American companies.
D. 911 - To blame him solely for this is sad. This problem has led to all of the issues we are now having regarding wiretapping and spying. We all want to be safe and have the government find all the bad guys, but we want privacy. There is a fine line that we must define right now, and that is why I believe we have issues. We are still in the definition stages of what we want versus what we'll give.
E. Economy - Whether we want to believe it or not, our economy is in good shape. GWB was given an economy on the downswing (look at GDP growth leading up to his 1st term) and then 9-11 happened. The economy has done well since then. I never give too much credit to the President for the economy, as there is only so much he can do, but I believe tax cuts helped here...now if the government would just quite spending so much it would be much better.
By the way, I wouldn't vote for him again, but I believe he has done a bunch of good and a bunch of bad...like every President we have had.
Sure I can! Embarrassed us. We should have all stayed close to the Dixie Chics back then. Maybe they can pick the next president.
