I don't know if this has been posted before or not, but I am trying to come up with a list of reasons as to why the general public doesn't like Bush. Feel free to add to this list. If you are pro-bush, then post of the good things he has done! So far, here is what
I've got:
1. A war in Iraq in hopes of finding weapons of mass destruction.
2. $1 Trillion Deficit
3. Huge unemployment rate since he stepped into office(don't know the exact amount).
Add to this list! Let's goooooooo!

He didn't goto ware simply on the hopes of finding mass destruction weapons. Everyone from the right to the left to the U.N. thought he had weapons before the war. The real question for our country shouldn't be why doesn't he have weapons. But what did he do with them. Because it is a fact at one time he did have them and no one that is speaking up knows what he did with them.
Secondly, he didn't make the debt all by him self. It's been growing since most of us can remember. However, he hasn't exactly helped it. But, if you took econ 101 you'd know that he isn't supposed to in times of recession. In times of recession the gov't needs to spend money to start the ball rolling again. He gave tax breaks in hopes consumers would spend the money and get the ball rolling again.
The unemployment rates do drop in recessions. Unfortunatly he hasn't ended the recession on jobs as quick as everyone would like but I won't give up on him yet. He's had a lot of obstacles to overcome just to get the economy moving in the right direction again which he has.
