Pros: - Dead Saddam - No terror on American soil in 7 years; terrorists on the run - Democratized Iraq - Clinton Credit Crisis contained - Lower taxes, tax rebates for hard-working American families

Worst president ever? Only if you're smoking crack.

They volunteered, it was totally worth killing Hussein. If you don't think it helped the world, get your ass to Iran and protect Mackmooood, if you can BWAHAHAHAHAHA

Democrats in Congress are 100% to blame for inflation by deliberately screwing up the economy to make it an issue for the election. Jeez, you don't know how things work, do you?

Dead Saddam? You mean the dictator that America helped put in power in Iraq and keep in power? The man we armed? So what, now we're replacing him with a puppet democracy that has to give us what we want or we won't leave? Thousands die for a sham democracy and the death of a man who we helped enthrone. Great job, Bush. Thanks for ignoring the terrorists who attacked us and instead invade a country that had nothing to do with the terrorist attacks. Genius.
No terror on America's soil. Since few of the safeguards recommended by the 9/11 Commission haven't been enacted by Bush and since the war on terror is only creating more terrorists--as estimated by the CIA and other intelligence agencies--it won't be long before terrorists attack the United States again.
Democratized Iraq. Nonsense. They have no sovereignty. They are an occupied nation who must abide by the United States mandates. How is that a democracy? When America leaves, then let's talk about Iraq being a democracy.
Clinton's yadda yadda yadda. Did you forget to mention Clinton's federal surplus spent and now we have the largest federal deficit ever?
Lower taxes...for the very rich. And this during a time of war. These tax breaks for the rich have succeeded in only one thing: increase the gulf between the rich and everyone else and also eroded what little remains of the middle class. Last time there was this level of wealth disparity was immediately prior to the Great Depression. There is a connection between wealth inequity and economic downturns.
I notice that you didn't mention Enron in the con grouping. Enron had close ties with the Bush administration. You didn't mention the housing bubble popping nor the mortgage scandal nor the failure of several banks and Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac. All of these failures were set in motion over twenty years ago when the knuckleheaded Republicans thought it would be keen to deregulate everything. When the economists started predicting these events, instead of admitting that deregulation doesn't work, the Republicans and Bush specifically ignored the approaching storm.
Also, in the con grouping: The politicizing of many of the agencies under the Bush administration, which is illegal. The firing of US Attorneys for failure to illegally ignore Republican crimes and to manufacture false charges against Democrats.
I could go on but we've all seen all of the negatives that Bush has brought upon America. What is astounding is that there are people who still support Bush. When you come on here and make false arguments to defend Bush, you're wasting your time because most of us Liberals and Democrats know our stuff. If you want to defend Bush, try it with your family, friends and coworkers because most Americans are ignorant as to what really happened in the White House.
> How has that helped to serve America? How many lives did it cost?
It removed a brutal dictator who demonstrated his willingness to use WMD. Clinton's appointed CIA director Tennant said he had the WMD, Clinton said he had it. Other coutries intel said he had it. He thumbed his nose at us after being warned about letting inspectors in which would have avoided the conflict to begin with. Lives would not have been so many if the democrats didn't stand in the way of everything.

> What does that have to do with anything? There hasn't been another Katrina. > Does Bush get credit for that too?
As if Bush was responsible for katrina to begin with. He set a precident by declaring it a disaster zone before the storm hit freeing up everyone to be able to handle it but DEMOCRATS bothced it up and then had the audacity to blame Bush.
>> - Democratized Iraq

Yes there is.
>> - Clinton Credit Crisis contained
> What crisis is that? The Bush crisis is the real concern of Americans.

"WMD" being a propaganda catchall term. The United States of America are the only brutal dictators to ever deploy nuclear weapons against other human beings.
> Clinton's appointed CIA director Tennant said he had the WMD, > Clinton said he had it. Other coutries intel said he had it.
Anyone who did not go along with the PNAC plan to invade Iraq (outlined in the Y2K document "Rebuilding America's Defenses") was dismissed, so that is no surprise nor is it any excuse for acting on false information.
The Bush administration are ratfucking liars, not simple victims of bad intel.
> Pros: > - Dead Saddam > - No terror on American soil in 7 years; terrorists on the run
How much is it what Bush has done and how much is is dumb luck? 1.It was 8 1/2 years between the two World Trade Center attacks. 2. What do I hear every time they test how well the TSA is doing? The seemingly not doing their job well.
> - Democratized Iraq
Great. They can vote. Now all we have to do is feed the Iraqis, give them a decent infrastructer and make sure they don't get blown up on the way to the polling place.
> - Clinton Credit Crisis contained In a word: Huh? > - Lower taxes, tax rebates for hard-working American families

Slightly would be $2 a gallon instead of $1.75 a gallon. I'm paying $3.50 a gallon. Time to redefine terms.
> - ...?
All our gains we made in the 80s and 90s internationally are down the toilet. Russia has gone from potentially having a democracy to being up to it's old tricks. We have a secretary of state that can do little more than give a good photo op. Iran is years away from making the Middle East a nuclear wasteland. It seems our answer to most international crisises over the past 7 1/2 years is a good stump speach and a slap on the wrist, tops.
> Worst president ever? Only if you're smoking crack.
OK, one can argue WORST president ever. There ARE Some presidents in the mid to late 19th century that could vie for number one. Carter wasn't to keen, either. Bush is easily on the Worst 5 list, and I don't mean squeaking in at 5, either. More like top 3.

Hey moron, they thought it was payback for 911. You sure are a fool aren't you?

Thousands of US soldiers dead in Iraq? Worst economic period in decades? Enough verbal faux pas that people are questioning his intelligence? The laughing stock of the rest of the world? (Bush, not the US)

He is A man, yes. THE man, no. That would be THE Brian Kendrick.
