Who voted for such a :[ president!!!

I don't know.  Your guess is as good as mine.  Hopefully we'll soon be rid of him [:@] and will have more sense than to elect someone else just like him. Then again ..... sometimes we just don't learn and history repeats itself.

Not I.  Either time.  And I shudder to think what's going to happen in the NEXT 2 plus years.  Sigh.  Shrubs belong in the garden...and NOT the rose garden.

Hope I dont offend anyone...
 
They are all a bunch of idiots leading idiots.  Bush cant even talk correctly, keep a train of thought for longer than 5 or so words... just plain LOOKS dumb.  Boy do I hate him.  His approval rating dropped to around 30% within MONTHS of the election... why the heck did those people vote in the first place then!?  I dont listen to his stupid speeches.  You know theres a thing on the net where you can hear the person reading into his ear for him to repeat it[8|]  Idiot.
 
I have a tee-shirt that says "Is it 2008 YET??"
 
Regardless, the damage is done.  No one likes us anymore, I think hes manged to get rid of any friends we had (the country)... thanks.  I dont get people... I didnt get why he got re-elected... although there was speculation of the votes (just like the FIRST time) but since the house is primarily republicans and a bunch of his daddys friends they decided a re-count was not necessary - hmm how convenient for Bush...   

Jumping on this bandwagon, what a moron he is. I cannot believe it took this long for the American public to finally see that this guy Does'nt have a clue and never,ever did!
We will never be able to get out of the debt he put us in, never mind that our kids are being
killed daily.AAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!

See what you started Iva lol

Not I. NOT I. I have been unable to watch him bumble through a speech after he stole the first election and actually won the second. He smirks, mangles the language, says nonsensical things, LIES and then there's that self satisfied snicker that passes for a laugh....my hackles rise!
 
But then I watch the poll numbers rise and fall.  We kill one bad guy and display his mangled, dead face world wide as proof and the numbers go up! The vast majority of people seem unable to have a firm opinion - either the war is a just one and the costs and sacrifices justified or it wasn't.  Support for it ebbs and flows depending on whether we can be perceived as "winning". 
 
The man has no plan - just the conviction that he is right and righteous.  That makes him dangerous in my book.

Personally, if I'd been old enough to vote, at the time, I would have still voted for him. Kerry was an idiot, plain and simple and I believe that things would have been 10 times worse with him. I mean, the guy couldn't even be truthful about things.
 
That aside, I don't support a whole lot of what Bush does do, however, I refuse to jump on the band wagon of Bush haters. It helps NO ONE to poke fun at another party or the president; especially when others basically call me and my family dumb because we did/would have voted for him over Kerry. At this current point in time, I am oblivious to most of what goes on in the country politically. I hate politics, with a passion. Whatever happens was meant to be, IMO, and it's in God's hands.
 
 

I'm with you Pumaward...my sentiments exactly.  I would hate to see how Kerry would have fared through all this.  Maybe we need to limit Presidents to one term in office...it seems like the second term decimates them.  I don't like politics, either.

I don't see Kerry as a president, his words was weak, I don't really know who he was.  And I wouldn't want either to be the president.   News after news, I get from how Bush did this, how his people did that and etc.  I am sick of it all!!  What good had he really done?!!!!  Gas price are up.  Health care are cut down.  I watched on TV how people and pets are dying when Katrina happen.  I am reminded of 9/11 as I walk by Ground Zero every day to work.  Disaster after disaster and people are angry.   Federal funding are cut, city isn't prepared for disasters including terrorism.  The war is still going on.  His rating drop for a reason.   I am upset that he's the president.....[>:] 

I supported Bush in the first election, and at the begining of this second election, but now im just not sure.  He hasn't done much good for the country, but i don't think Kerry would have done any better either.  It does seem like Bush is doing dumber and dumber things. 
 
I agree about the 2nd term thing.  If you look back in history, almost every president who has been elected to a second term has had plummeting approval ratings and failed to accomplish much.

 Yes presidents don't do much in the second term that's why it's called the lame duck. But this goof ball didn't do anything in his first term.
I agree the democrats dropped the ball they did not have one good candiate, and they still don't.
We are just in deep doo-doo, I don't know if that's the technical term for it though lol
 

I'll be the one Bush-friendly person here. The things you listed are not his fault. For example, Katrina. He signed over funds to Louisiana over 2 days before it made landfall. He did not cause Hurricane Katrina. Guard units and Red Cross units were stationed to enter New Orleans but the mayor of NO and the gov of La told them not to enter as they did not want people trying to go into NO for aid. As for what happend to NO, that is 150 years of mismanagment and Bush is not that old. When military funding cuts became the rage during the Clinton admin., the Corp of Engineers took a hit along with all of the base closings. Bush had nothing to do with that. The city of NO put up a bond election to bolster the levies and the voters turned it down. The Corp of Engineers, what's left of them, has been warning of this problem for a long time and no one would listen. Many of the problems associated with that disaster were either beyond his control or were, at worst, mishandled by FEMA. Houston, OTOH, was a success.
 
It was not his directive that people be unpunished for taking artifacts from ground zero. Bush did not cause the crash of Flight 93. Nor did he allow bin Laden cronies to hijack the plane. Clinton, OTOH, turned down a few offers to capture bin Laden. I'm not blaming Clinton. Bush is cleaning up the mess left behind by others. I don't agree with everything he does and I think we should leave Iraq. I really wish he would do something about the fuel situation. I also don't think we can fight terrorism with troop movements. It's a special forces war. A SEAL or AFSOC team carries a sniper that does the job, get in, take the shot, get out.
 
The next president will be a democrat, not because I think the democrats have a better candidate but because I think the republicans don't have as strong a candidate as Bush was. He's not perfect but he is not soley to blame for the problems we have. That gives him way too much power.

i agree with ron, the war on terrorism can NOT be won with massive amounts of troops.  Having soldiers stationed all over iraq isn't doing anything.  The way we are making progress is with the special forces teams arresting and killing terrorist leaders, not with troops being blown up driving around iraq.
