OK we've all seen the polls but what does everyone here think. Do you approve or disapprove of the job our president has done?
 
I disapprove. I think he made a mess of the war in Iraq, has done nothing noteworthy, and his policies are terrible. I also get the feeling he just doesn't care now and will like to pass his failures onto the next president.
 
I don't see how anyone can approve of this miserable failure.
Today he signs into law, oh surprise surprise, more tax cuts, this admit the fact that the national debt is at a record time high, admist war, various departments in government completely underfunded.
A purly political move.
He's an idiot.

I approve of our "Good Ol' Boy" president, except for his immigration policy. It sucks ***!

Interesting you would say that as several of his temporary measure expire in 2008.

oh how those republicans are dying for the Latino vote. I heard a rumor that someone bought into univision as a way to brainwash the latinos into thinking they actually care for their rights and not just want their vote. It's only a rumor but let me see if I can find anything to back it up.

Most of the GOP leaders are a little misguided anyway. Sen. Mel Martinez and Gov. Jeb Bush are two of em'. They don't realize what they are asking for!

And Ben and Jerry's donated millions to Kerry 2 years ago; as did Progressive Auto Insurance. (By the way, John Kerry served in Vietnam)

hhhhmm.. I knew there was a reason I cancelled progressive and it wasn't just cause they suck!!
 
Bush was a lousy student who somehow got into the finest schools.

Bush was a National Guardsman who somehow missed a year of service.

He was a failed businessman who somehow became rich.

He was a minority investor who somehow was made managing partner of the Texas Rangers.

He was a defeated politician who somehow was made governor.

He was a man who had the thinnest, weakest, and least impressive record of public service of anyone who ever gained the White House.

He is a failed president who lied to the American people, manipulated intelligence, and took our nation to war.

He is a man who has failed at every aspect of his life, who was only propelled upward by wealth, privilege, status and the special interests who used his family's last name for personal gain.

He is a man who has taken our nation to the brink of bankruptcy.

He is a man, who acting out of political revenge, had a CIA agent revealed.

He is a man who skirted the Constitution to do warrentless wiretaps.

He is a man who believes God speaks through him.

The blood of every American who has died in Iraq is on his hands.

Other then all of the above, yeah, Bush is doing a damn fine job! ROTFL!!!

The one good thing he's done? We'll never see another Bush in the White House.

Just because he can't speak proper english, it doesn't mean he's stupid. Do you know how tough the IQ Exam is to get into the White House?

Is Mary Mapes and Dan Rather your source for this crapola?
He was a failed businessman who somehow became rich.
Hmmm...... if he failed then why is he rich?
He was a minority investor who somehow was made managing partner of the Texas Rangers.
Jealousy?
He was a defeated politician who somehow was made governor.
Obviously not defeated if he became Gov of TX.
He was a man who had the thinnest, weakest, and least impressive record of public service of anyone who ever gained the White House.
Being a governor isn't good enough? What about Bill Clinton being only the Gov of Arkansas before becoming president?
He is a failed president who lied to the American people, manipulated intelligence, and took our nation to war.
What lies has Bush told? What manipulated intel do you speak of? What's wrong with putting a stop to a brutal dictator?
He is a man who has failed at every aspect of his life, who was only propelled upward by wealth, privilege, status and the special interests who used his family's last name for personal gain.
Bush can't have been a failure, SINCE HE IS IN THE TOP MOST SEAT OF POWER IN THE WORLD!!! Wealth and privleges? Like the ones the whole Kennedy family gets?
He is a man who has taken our nation to the brink of bankruptcy.
There has been a deficit since the Great Depression in the 1930's. So that's the fault of every president since then.
He is a man, who acting out of political revenge, had a CIA agent revealed.
Her own husband was releasing her ID for years. Half of Washington already knew about her profession. Even NBC, though they deny it.
He is a man who skirted the Constitution to do warrentless wiretaps.
Skirted? Nay, he has done everything by the book. Every president since JFK (that I know of) has done wire taps. Clinton in 1994 made a system where the gov't doesn't have to ask for phone records, they can just take them. Besides, Bush's are only "Foreign-To-Domestic" wiretaps. As in, only numbers from known terrorists are compared with US #'s. There are no names on the list. Besides, there are websites like the SwitchBoard site where I could type in any random phone# and find out who it belongs to and where they live. And it's all legal. Actually pick up a law book and research our laws before telling lies.
He is a man who believes God speaks through him.
So do all world leaders, both past and present, although the God may have been different than what Bush believes in.
The blood of every American who has died in Iraq is on his hands.
It's the terrorists who are pulling the triggers at our troops, not Bush. It's the terrorists who are making IEDs and setting them off, not the president.
Other then all of the above, yeah, Bush is doing a damn fine job! ROTFL!!!
Yeah, he is doing a good job. He is doing nothing any different than any other president has. People like you just have a political vendetta against him.
The one good thing he's done? We'll never see another Bush in the White House.
You don't know that for sure. Don't judge a person by how his family acts.

Your false accusations have been duly noted.
 
it doesnt seem like it, but bush had higher a higer GPA at Yale than Kerry, and had a higher military aptitude test. so i guess kerry is too stupid to be a senator too...

source for Yale grades
http://www.boston.com/news/nation/w...grades_portray_kerry_as_a_lackluster_student/

you have to compare grades for the two different military tests, and both bush and kerry did pretty bad. however, most think that bush did slightly better than kerry, but there is no way to know since they were different tests.

Oh, do you mean the same NBC who was owned by the same GE which stifled the story about Juanita Broaderick's rape until after it could no longer influence Clinton's impeachment trial?

Hint: Don't pretend either party gives a crap about the god damned mexican invaders. Both parties want three things:

1) Money from people seeking to influence the law.
2) Votes from the new invaders.
3) Keep the other party from getting those votes.

It's that simple, it's that corrupt. Any candidate you can name in recent times, including Reagan, operated on that principle. While Bush has done a truly suck-*** job of doing nothing about this vital issue, it's certain that he's not doing anything differently that any other candidate would do.

+1 The only good thing Bush has done is lower taxes.

-1 His failure to spend a quarter to replace the lost veto pen gives him seriously bad marks.

-1 His incessant babbling about how that superstition of the towelheads is a "religion of peace", AFTER 3,000 Americans were murdered by that superstition, is an abomination.

His unlimited capacity for catering to the socialists is another mark against him. Areas include:

-1 Edumacation,
-1 Expanding Government,
-1 Kissing French Butt,
-1 Harriet Meiers,
-1 Closing drilling sites in America and along coastal waters
-1 Being apologetic about what happened with Katrina and other such nonsense. Not the Feds job to babysit.
-1 For signing an EO holding all Executive Branch documents for fifty years before they become public, thereby preventing the public from a full disclosure of Clinton's crimes, and, naturally, holding back revelations about his own activities.

All in all, he's doing exactly what I thought he'd be doing back in 2000. Which means he's better than any Democrat, but that only gives him 1 point of approval on a 10 point scale.
 
I approve..........History will judge GWB as a great president regardless what the whacko left and liberal media say about him now.......

Thank you President Bush for sticking by your guns and not governing by polls as "Slick Willie" did.....

Maybe you'll luck out and Jenna ( hiccup) will decide to run one day? ROTFL!!!

Yeah, she's probably got a bush, too. Can't ever tell, these days, though. At least she's more decorative than Hillary ever was.
 
Perhaps he is likable as a person, but not as a president....bless his heart.

OMG! A politician did something political?
 
I disagree with some things President Bush has done, but I agree with others.

Overall, I must chose "approve".

I can't condem everything he has done just because of a few mistakes.
 
I voted disaprove, and cant understand why anyone would vote otherwise.
