How popular is George W Bush?

As a newcomer to the forum, and a non-American at that, how popular is George W amongst posters on this site? How much support does he have?

There are many good sheep here who think he's great. I sometimes think that his dismal approval ratings are shored up by many of the members of this board.

Personally I believe him to be a criminally, evil prick. But I try to keep that a secret.

His dismal approval ratings are still higher than the approval rating of your do-nothing Democrat Congress.

If it were constitutionally allowable, I'd vote for him again for another term.

As much as I have supported him, I couldn't vote for him again. His fiscal policies involving the national debt and spending are an abysmal failure like so many presidents have been in the past. Other than that he is fine IMO and gets a lot of worthless and unneeded crap from the Che leftists in America.

I think he has done a good job considering the state of affairs left by the previous administration and the fact that he was left to deal with 911, Saddam Hussein and a technology bubble. But at the same time, I think he could have done more with immigration. He's no Ronald Reagon but I give him an 8 (out of 10). He's a hell of a lot better than our current choices, so I'd vote for him again in a heartbeat.

You shoud write him in. Just in case.

You know...as "bad" as some sectors of our economy is...it's not as bad as it was in Mar of 2003 under Clinton. Unemployment was higher then but the media wasn't beating that drum as much as it is now. I wonder if we had a democrat in the White House if all of the news would be so negative.
