BellaOnline Forums News and Politics Current Events History cares about presidents

History only cares about presidents, what they did and the events of their presidencies. We do not teach the lives of Senators or Representatives in school. George Bush understands this and knows that history will judge him a great president, one who defended America and western civilization in the wake of 9/11. Urged on by ultra-liberals Pelosi and Reid, Congress is trying to usurp the authority of the president as commander-in-chief. But George Bush is "the decider" when it comes to the military, not Speaker Pelosi. He will veto the bill tying troop withdrawals to funding. Congress needs to send him a bill consistent with history and one which provides our troops with the funds and supplies they need.

President Bush needs a plan for Iraq. Unfortunately, he's never had one.

I seriously doubt that history will judge President Bush to have been a great president. Personally, I believe he will be regarded as one of the worst, if not the Worst, President in the History of the United States.

yeah Bush is decider and take it so easy but less care of futurity and consequences of his decisions or image it so simply, less intelligent estimation. He is leader of most powerful country in the world so must more think of what he do. I don't consider him a bad guy but what's the difference.

There was a clear and present danger after 9/11. Our most important buildings were attacked. 3000 innocents dead. We had no clue who was to blame. If there had been no response from the Bush administration, what would other terrorist groups have thought, that America was ripe for the picking? That they could take over? Bush did the only thing he knew to do, and that was to go after Saddam, a symbol of tyranny in the Muslim world. Saddam could be found. Bin Laden was a shadowy character who could easily fade into the crowd. As Christians, we could say let's just sit back and let those who hate us, destroy us. Jesus did that. But is that what we really want to do? See our children and grandchilden die? The destruction of the Twin Towers and the attack on the Pentagon were of such magnitude that there was going to be a major war, somewhere with somebody. Bush took the war to the desert. Our military is a magnet, attracting jihadists from around the world who are looking for a fight. Their obsession with the 50 States has been broken. Bush knows what he is doing. He is a great president. Let the war be in Baghdad, not New York City.

3000 inncocents dead yes but more innocent troops have died since.Is it worth it? I wonder if your president would send his kids off to war?

And as for him being a great president and knowing what he is doing well you are deffinatley in a minority there.

He will go down in history as one of the most disliked presidents ever.A war monger just like his father.Thank god he will soon leave for good - sooner than you might think.

Geore Bush will finish his 8 years. History will regard him as one of the greatest American presidents.

No matter what plan George Bush may or may not have had in the beginning, it would have evolved to the point of being unrecognizable. This is an ongoing thing, moment to moment. The United States won the war. We are trying to keep the peace. Bush is one of America's great presidents, and he will be recognized as such by succeeding generations.

....your'e to funny.
