Not everyone. These days, the media looooooves to criticize and get in everyones buisiness, along with be very negative and anti-gun, so yeah, it's not only screwed up the media, but many poeple as well.
There are accomplishments Bush has made that go sooooooooooo unnoticed, it's ALMOST criminal.
But yeah, he has screwed up a lot, too.

Ugh, need we speak of the current candiates for the 2 major political parties?
Because people want a president they could have a beer with. :|
Still, I would gladly take another four years of Bush rather than Hilary Clinton.

I really don't care, just as long as it isn't Hilary.
We are either getting the first women president (very unlikely), the first black president, (very good chance), or the oldest first-term president. (Probably the most likely)

And then from that we may get a revolt (very unlikely), an assasination (very good chance), and ummm... something generic (The most likely)

If Obama is elected, he will have the Secret Service with him 24/7. Hilary would be the one that would be assassinated. McCain would just serve a term or two and then die like a year later.

Not everyone. These days, the media looooooves to criticize and get in everyones buisiness, along with be very negative and anti-gun, so yeah, it's not only screwed up the media, but many poeple as well.
There are accomplishments Bush has made that go sooooooooooo unnoticed, it's ALMOST criminal.
But yeah, he has screwed up a lot, too.
Most people don't realize that the President can't declare war. That's Congress's decision.

Bush DID make the No Child Left Behind Act, though.

Most people don't realize there's such a thing called executive privilege that allows for military action for a limited time before needing to request additional funds from Congress. And that there's precedent for it.

That leaves thousands of children behind by forcing schools to conform to ridiculous and often counter productive standards. In Bush's home state of Texas, many high schools pushed students to drop out or get a GED to make the school look better overall. The No Child Left Behind Act is a joke and does little to solve to issue of the continuous decline of our school system.

I'm sorry, I didn't state my opinion on it.
You pretty much did, it is a joke.
Honestly you guys, let's not derail this into '08 politics but.
My top pick is Hilary. Yeah, she's really not fit to be a president, but I don't want McSame, and Bill behind her makes her better than Barack "What the intercourse am I doing" Obama.
If only Kucinich or Ron Paul made it far enough though :(

In the end it becomes the decision of Congress however. Truthfully I did know that.

Silent Majority
I thought you were going to ask why we still have him as president. I'm still wondering how he got the second term ???

I'd be interested to see what kinds of things you mean, just out of curiosity.
