That's debatable. And what exactly is the "end" of this "war"? The way I see it..we went in, ****ed with a weakening country, made them weaker, and screwed them up worse than they were before. Statistically, they were actually better off when Saddam was in power. Plus, I'm guessing in a few years we'll end up leaving Iraq because we've created an irreversible problem...making all the lives lost on both sides, utterly pointless. I see the future of Iraq at this point as pretty grim. That in itself makes Bush a pretty crappy president. He had little justification to start the "War"...came out finding no weapons of mass destruction, and decided to conveniently direct everyones attention to Saddam...making it "seem" like there was some point.
The United States is helping Iraq get back on its feet. And then end of this was I suppose would be Osama killed and Al Qaeda destroyed.

How are we going to find and kill Osama (the true cause of 9/11) when all of our attention is devoted to a country that is probably never going to get back on it's feet (in my opinion)? The whole hanging of Saddam was stupid as is. The person who should have been hanging, is, as you said..Osama. I'm not seeing that happening any time soon..but then again, I'm not psychic. If anything, Iraq has been a nice distraction from what we should TRULY be worrying about.

All of our attention is not on Iraq, we have troops in Afghanistan. And though I agree with it, the hanging of Saddam was decided by an Iraqi court, not American.

Yes, because the fact that Iraq is one of the richest countries in the world in oil really has nothing to do with it.

No it wasn't a freakin typo! I gave the retard a -10 because I can and I'm one sarcastic bastard!

Hell, with Bill C. at least he was good at his job! He wasn't some half baked retard that only got the job because his daddy had it before him. At least Bill wasn't a D- student! At least Bill could say the RIGHT words at the RIGHT times. At least Bill didn't choke on a GODDAMN pretzel! I'd rather have a dude who got a blow job in office then a retarded douche bag. Bill would have found that shit stain Osama in a week and beat the shit out of him with a goddamn tire iron.

Bush needs to be kicked out of office and Bill C. needs to come back damnit!

I long for the old days of the USA, the days when we took a hit from someone, we hit them back ten fold. Look at Japan, those small dicked shits bombed our boats, what did we do? We nuked their damn island. Have they had the balls to **** with us again? Shit no, those people learned their damn lesson!

Me? Cold blooded? Probably.
Your opinions aren't funny at all. Plus, they're so misguided by the media directed against Bush it isn't even funny. This is why I simply cannot take you seriously.

Also, at the topic creator, what should I base my ratings on? His performance as the President of the United States of America? I'm not going to judge his performance as President by a mere mispronounced and made-up word every now and then. Because, that doesn't define how well you have done your job.

I'll only truely be able to answer this question when the whole situation with Iraq is over, to see what kind of impact President Bush actually had. Until then, I'm going to keep my ignorant mouth shut, unlike some others who like to spread it like the plague.

But Bush started it!

There doesn't look to be a future in Iraq that can be seen. It looks so painful.

These insurgents are not only Al-Qaeda members. Osama probably isn't hiding in Iraq - it's too dangerous.

And if Osama dies, someone will take his place. If he dies (unlikely to be a female, given their words), someone will take his place. The war will not end with Osama dead. In fact, it could make it worse.

Regarding his hanging, I cannot believe that a court can find a mass-murderer who could have pleaded ignorance of his subordinates convicted in such a short amount of time. Conspiracy? Several other criminals had problems being convicted and their crimes were just as bad, if not worse.

Instead of blowing up terrorists and giving young children an excuse to avenge them, they should've tried to understand the resentment. It's not too hard to see that it all boils down to Israel. Not saying Israel should be destroyed, of course, but most Muslims perceive the bias towards Israel as unfair when Palestinians are being oppressed.

There isn't a day where I worry about going back on the Tube because there is absolutely no possible way that the current security can definitely foil a terrorist attack. One of the bombs went off in an area predominantly occupied by Lebanese and Arabic people. This shows that they don't care where the bombs went off - even amongst their own religion and race.

Which is why I will always resent this so-called stupid war on terror because where I am is such a dangerous place because of it. Anyone can call it a legitimate war but I do not want to be a part of this war because I know what both sides feel about this war. I don't want to be a sacrifice because if I die in a bombing, it gives the excuse to the war-mongers to go ahead and push for more catches and resentment, and an excuse for the terrorists that it is easy to foil security and be tempted to do more violence.

As of late, terrible. He used to have balls. Now he doesn't. Hell, wtf is he doing? Yeah...going to Iraq and getting rid of Saddam good job. But we are staying there too long...the Iraqi government isn't doing shit to stay upright. Talk about just taking our money and soldiers.
Yeah, I'm conservative but that doesn't mean shit.

Two. He get's a point for holding off the draft thus far, and a point for me accidently selecting option 2 instead of 1.
:(

At what cost? Do you have any idea how much this is costing the American people?
How about we try fixing our economy before we play world police?

Oh and good luck "ending terrorism". Ending terrorism is an unrealistic and ignorant goal.

I don't think America really cares except to join a bandwagon.
People aren't suffering. Save for one thing only, gas.
Otherwise everyone got a damn iPod for Christmas or whatever expensive toys they bought. Again, people wouldn't even freaking know except for the news. People aren't even "helping the war efforts" like they did in the past.

As for terrorism. Yea, gl stopping that.

I don't honestly see why people care so much. Especially teenagers. My life personally hasn't changed for better or for worse based off of a president's actions ever. So, that being said, why do you all care oh so much? Even people in Canada care more than I do..o_o;

Because the national debt isn't going to disappear on it's own.
