George W, good or bad?

Since George W. Bush is nearing the end of his term, what do you think his legacy will be?

restoring honor to the white house by not soiling a pair of pants in the oval office?

sorry... i almost leaked beer out my nose laughing as i wrote that.

ummm... time heals a lot, like fr chuck said. who the hell knows what iraq will become? if it dramatically changes the landscape of the middle east, itll soften the image. if iraq falls apart, its hard to say... will it be his fault for destabilizing the area or will it be the fault of the next person(s) who didnt "finish the job?"

as iraq goes, so goes the bias?

I think he will be seen, even 30 years from now the worst president ever in american history.

Billions of dollars in dept. Going into war under false evidence of weapons. There is a long list that I could go on. The american economy blows and they are not going to see above the waters for a long time because they focused on a war that should have never took place.

I'm discontent with his presidency overall. I don't think he was a good president by any stretch of the imagination, but looking back, let's say twenty years down the road, I probably wouldn't label him bad, just somewhat incomplete. The guy got into office with less than half of our nations voting populace in support following a lengthy national election that took too long to sort out (and even included the Supreme court). Shortly after being in office he was saddled with a huge burden of 9/11. I give him good marks for Afghanistan and poor marks for his strategic measures in Iraq. Second term the guy got saddled with natural disasters, i.e. Katrina. I think he reacted fairly the same as any other president would had in most of the calamities. His tinkering with the economy was average at best, loaning us our own money to see it taxed again, along with cutting interest rates several times. I give him mostly negative marks for the amount of bankruptcies filed and for a housing market that we saw peak, only to have increasing foreclosures to pursue. This lead to new tighter restrictions on mortgage broker loans. It took the pressure of most of the nation pondering what's taken him so long before seeing the minimum wage finally increased. Gas prices are ridiculous and having a presence in the Mid-East region of the world, to the contrary, has shown no oil benefit. To Bush's credit though, since his very first term, he has challenged the large car manufacturers to come up with alternative fuels. I think die-hard Republicans were mostly disappointed with his immigration reach-out that most people recognized as a form of amnesty. Overall because of the circumstances that happened during his presidency, a fair amount beyond his control, I'm grading him with a "C+."

really? the prez is now responsible for bad mortgage loans???

i voted for the guy twice, and almost puked the second time, but the dem had a wacko and a liar so it sucked to be me.

but really... the prez had NOTHING to do with the mortgage fiasco.

when the hell are PEOPLE going to take responsibility for their own bad financial decisions?

a lot of lenders made bad, bad decisions. they should be held responsible too... a lot of financially responsible IDIOTS took out loans they couldnt sustain.

but i dont hold the president of a company responsible if theres no toilet paper in the stall.

get real.

I think he has been a puppet, a shill for greedy people who have their own agenda.

I am talking about the debt caused by the governments policies, war policies, world policies. These are not debt caused by the people but by the government.

P.S. Wondergirl maybe your right. Puppet for greedy people. Still the President.

I am grading him with F, a big capital F. I guess I should also blame the people have voted him in twice. For being duped. Each time.

Wondergirl agrees: And the buck stops with him.
