Can any objective person think of one positive thing Bush has accomplished

[WI_DEM]

as president?

I mean everything he touches turns to shit!

1) biggest surplus in history becomes biggest deficit
2) 9/11 on HIS watch
3) A major US city is destroyed while he strums some guitar and rests at his pig farm.
4) US gets involved in another Vietnam by going into Iraq
5) The US becomes the most hated country in the world

Everything this guy touches turns to dust and yet he keeps between 33-40 percent of the American people behind him. Something is seriously wrong.

1. He signed the Do Not Call act

Though I still get automated telephone calls

[Karenca]

7. He signed Megan's Law

Though I think many people are against that.

[rusty charly]

2. oil and defense contractors awash in profits

[valerief]

3. Extremely wealthy people got WAY wealthier. That's gotta be

good. Well, for small number of extremely wealthy people.

4. Is this a trick question

cause i can't think of a thing

(but I'm still hopeful that he'll resign someday)

[danalytical]

5. Actually I can

He designated a large piece of the ocean next to Hawaii as a nature sanctuary. This was probably the only good thing he did during his presidency.

11. yeah I was trying to remember the specifics of that

In the balance thats such a band-aid because some of the most irreversible damage he has done has been in environmental areas...
But thats the only thing he has ever done that was good.

What a cree[

[DURHAM D]

6. Energized the Dems. eom

[BOSSHOG]

8. He will have reduced the gop to permanent minority status

by January 2009. What could be more positive then that? I am objective when it comes to that monster. My hate is rational and I believe my prediction will come true. (Permanent equals for at least 50 years.)

[tandot]

9. He gave big tax cuts to the filthy rich. Very positive thing for them.

[johnnie]

10. Oh yeah..

I got $300 back from the IRS 6 years ago.

:rofl:

[BuyingThyme]

12. AAR

[IChing]

13. He turned me into a radical liberal socialist democrat

I wasn't always this leftist
so I don't mind that part of my awaken consciousness.

:) :evilgrin: :rofl:

[blue cat]

17. Bush has inspired

a lot of people to become activists, me included. I used to considered myself independent during Clinton's presidency, and Clinton was the first dem. that I voted for. Now I'm a flaming die-hard democrat.

[Marr]

14. The standard answer is the Do Not Call list.

And that's literally the only decent thing I can think of that he's been associated with.

[Sherman A1]

15. The only thing that comes to mind

is the Thanksgiving message and that certainly was written by someone other than him.

[grytpype]

16. He's taken a lot of pressure off of Buchanan, Harding, and Grant

"WE LOVE YOU GEORGE!!!!"

[Ioo]

18. I have one - He has done a great job exposing republicans as cowards...

[lectrobyte]

19. Lots of positive things. Look at your Halliburton stock price. I'm

sure there are lots more. Boeing? Etc.

[Ready4Change]

20. By destabilizing the Middle East and raising crude oil prices...

... his otherwise disastrous and ill concieved agendas have made development and installation of renewable systems fashionable, or even profitable.

Of course, this is far from his intention. He's been trying to drop prices by promoting drilling, while at the same time cheerleading all manner of energy consumption. It's just that in those areas, like everything else he has ever tried in his sorry life, he has been an utter failure.

[Jed Dilligan]

21. Recruited at least one loyal Democratic voter

me

[indepat]

22. He and Laura had a very good first year in the oval office

[Lisa]

23. he's getting more attention for this Canadian university

[Texasgal]

24. Ummm...

The creation of DU come to mind!!!

[bluestateguy]

25. The Do Not Call List

But the only "accomplishment" there was getting out his pen and signing the bill. Congress took the lead and initiated the bill themselves.

[flordehinojos]

26. when it comes to bush,

is there any one single person on this planet who can view him objectively?

[SammyWinstonJack]

27. I got nothing.

:shrug: But then I am not objective when it comes to **.
