Bush is the first Republican President since Dwight Eisenhower to enjoy outright majorities in the House and Senate. If he can't get a Bill written the way he wants it with both majorities the future is dim. He hasn't done squat about reversing any of the Executive Orders issued by Clinton. His administration reeks of Clinton personel. He can't seem to get his selected judges to the courtroom bench.

For some people, personal integrity and ethics go together like bread and butter or children and toys. When we think of one the other always comes into the picture.
I wish I had studied him more before I voted because now I regret it. Voting for him was a mistake that I'll not make again.
His respect for veteran soldiers certainly isn't reflected in his budget. We had to scream and holler to get wounded soldiers to not be billed for their hospital meals. The VA needs the $15 billion he gave to Africa!
Mr. Bush had promised the American people to rein in government growth, federal discretionary spending. He said he would support the 2nd Amendment. I sure haven't seen any sign of these yet.
He had promised not to raid the $175 billion surplus in the nation’s pension trust fund except in times of war, recession or a national emergency. Now he has all three going and our trade deficit with China continues to reach peaks that Republican Senators and Congressmen promised us would never happen.
He pledged that he would provide no bailouts for Latin American nations.
Isn't leaving our Southern border open 24/7 a bailout for Mexico? You're damn right it is!
Then he okayed a $30 billion 'rescue loan' for Brazil, presumably because the collapse of Brazil's economy would have caused serious problems for Wall Street and his personal friends . I'll bet this turns into a loan that will be written off by Washington leaving it for us to pay with interest.
Oh Yeah, He's a great guy but a lousy President.
