And it only took him 8 years to break our economy. Our approval rating overseas is prob. about as low as it ever has been. However, the "base" still approves.

The saddest part is that there are still 25% of people out there that actually APPROVE of him.....
What the hell has the guy got to do to get those votes.......blow up a school bus

He is a funny guy to watch, but George W. Bush is the worst president since Andrew Johnson, maybe the worse ever.

It appears that the American people view the democrat led congress as being more than twice as bad and doing a much worse job than Bush. That's about right.

Your House and Senate have a lower approval rating then Bush. Putting Obama in control of that bunch of losers, is not what America needs right now. Just my opinion.

I for one am sick of the blame "Bush for everything" by the media and by the liberals.  The dabate over the financial crisis showed what the Dems are made of. That was a effen embarresment, and if you can support Frank,Kerry or any of those ilk then you have no right condeming anyone that might support the President on one issue or another.
Go ahead and blame Bush for everything if it makes you feel better. Symbol over substance.....it's the Dems motto.

George Bush is an Embarassment to this Country....period! I don't blame him for everything. I know full well that pretty much all politicians are full of chit and they all suck. The problem isn't the republicans and it isn't the democrats....its ALL of them. And I get pissed when everytime I say something about that president (and I use the term loosely) of ours I get labeled a Dem Liberal Whack-job. Believe it or not I actually hold a lot of conservative views.
I do blame him for what the rest of the world thinks about us....every time he opens his mouth its another Embarassing Moment. There's something to be said for looking Informed and Intelligent when you are the face of our country.
When I was in the Service and went overseas in Europe when people found out we were american they loved us, bought us drinks, pulled up a stool to talk to us, hell in a couple of countries they took us into there homes.....in the past 8 years this idiot we have running the country has turned us into laughing stocks for the rest of the world.........and it disgusts me. We have lost our Respect in the world because of him.
Every time I see the videos of him flipping off the camera with that goofy laugh, his inabilty to open a door and then following it up with his best Snagglepuss routine , or his inane dancing that he feels is his "Go To" move to make people laugh, I cringe. You are the leader of the most powerful country in the world...ACT IT!!
As far as I'm concerned he doesn't deserve the 25% rating that he got and I'm counting the days until he is done. And I hope no college or univerisity wastes any of their money getting him to speak there........he will just, once again, do something to embarrass us.

Congress historically has had lower ratings then the president. As far as the do nothing congress, many of you seem to forget that the republicans have set modern day records filibustering legislation, and not only that they set the record during the first half of the session last year. On the other hand, when the republicans controlled congress, filibustering was such a horrendous abuse of minority power.

A very real fear that you all should have is the liklyhood that the Dems will have a super majority and the Republicans will be unable to filibuster. With Obama in the White House, no one will be able to stop the forward march of socialism.
Add in the replacement of up to 3 Supreme Court justices and life as we know it will change. I hope this isn't something any of you are comfortable with.
Carefull what you wish for.
And I promise to never vote for Bush again! Enough already!

I've argued one should vote for McCain for just this reason. I think government works best when there's a balance of power.
As for the Supreme court, I'm less concerned with confirming one idiology over the other and more concerned with objective skilled people who will do their best to interpret the constitution. I happened to like Roberts...Alito quite a bit less.
