Just a poll of how many Bush supporters are out there. With the war in Iraq and all i think he basically lost a big amt of support.Whats your opinion of him too, it would be interesting to know

Im not really a big fan. I am a firm believer that he went into Iraq not for the war on terror, but to finish what his father started. Thus under the guise of looking for WMD's he effectively made the United States an empire through the removal of a world leader. We never should have been there. I also think though that all of the people that say we should pull out now are crazy. We have to stay there at least in partial because we need to save some face left in the world and if we just pull out we will look really bad.

Totally agree...but as someone that has been there and endured a grueling 15 months in the desert i do have to say that its about time to drastically reduce the troops present. The Iraqi army has been well trained and for what i understand are running operations basically on their own with minor help from the U.S. my question is why do they keep the troops at the level of 120-130,000 thats ridiculous. If anything reduce it to 2/3 of that but Bush doesnt want to listen he always has to have his hands on everything. WMD although at the time seemed like a good reason to invade we all know what the US came up with...nothing

exactly. We have to leave some troops there but reducing drastically the numbers that are there would be a godsend

I've never supported Bush and I still can't believe he is in office. Bush lied to the American people about the WMDs and that has cost this country so much. I feel bad for whoever has to clean his mess up. :(

I think Georgie-Boy pretty much ruined the Bush name. I can't see the American people voting another Bush into office.

I couldn't see many people voting a second time for someone who deceived us into thinking Iraq had WMD and look what happened.
Unless the Democratic party has a strong candidate, the Republicans will always win. I didn't even like Kerry -- he wasn't a very strong candidate, but I'd rather have had him won the election than Bush for another 4 years.
GWB shouldn't have won, but he did. Don't underestimate Jeb or else we'll be stuck with a decade of Bushs'

I intended to vote for Kerry but actually was too late to vote...being in Germany didnt make the process any better for me when it came to voting. This time around i think the Democrats will win. I think tjough at this point regardless of what party gets elected the situation in Iraq will not change. There's been talks of diminishing troop strength in Iraq but we've been hearing the same BS for the last year. Some may call me dumb for reenlisting in the Army for another 3 years but chances are very slim that an optometry tech will get deployed.So Im fairly safe for now.

Ughhh... don't even get me started about this.. I still don't understand why he was re-elected. I really did think we would be saved.
As much as I'd hate a female president (even though I am female), I'd vote for Hillary too..

I'm in shock to be honest. I don't love GWB...I don't think anyone does. But I think Hilary will be the worst thing to happen to this great country.
A) She believes in a large central government that will drain power from the local governments. This is EXACTLY the reason our forefathers left England and established our own nation!
B) Does anyone remember Hilary single handedly ruining healthcare while Slick Willy was in office?
C) She is extremely irresponsible with money. While Bill was in office, Hilary, Chelsea, and FORTY-TWO friends took spring break in South Africa. The cost of the airfare was the only disclosed amount of the trip and that alone was a WHOPPING $1.2 million plus! Imagine the cost of the rest of the trip. I hated having to pay for that.
The list goes on, but I'll stop now because I don't think anyone has read this far down...

Well as an outsider I don't support him, but then I don't support our moronic Prime Minister either. But then if you wanted to go further I don't really like humans as a whole. GWB is an imperialist and until no other country has WOMD only them, he won't be happy and we are all screwed...well if it wasn't for China, North Korea and Russia that is :)

I agree national healthcare, and legalize drugs. Make them the same as alcohol cant buy under a certain age and driving under the influence is a hefty fine and jail. It would let so many ill deserved people out of prison. It would have to be done gradually though so there isnt anarchy in the beginning.

I've heard that countries with national health care think it's horrible. I think the govt. screws up EVERYTHING THEY TOUCH and I would like them to leave healthcare alone.
