Very appropriate and accurate summation of the “compassionate conservative”, better than Gore or Kerry, presidency.

"protect us from all enemies, foreign and domestic."

Below average job rating on this category.

HAAA You are so completely clueless!

We have current immigration laws. Why are you so certain that all is lost. Maybe now, as is being seen in various sections of the Country, they will be enforced. Just adding more sh@@ would do nothing. That is the clue.

Thanks for the copy and paste effort. I feel much better about his push for amnesty and all the other non-conservative items from his presidency.

BTW, things he wants to do are not accomplishments. If they were, count me in as the first person to step foot on mars.

Much of this was done because we had a Rep controlled Congress much of his term in office--something that has been frittered away. It is far too soon to write Bush's legacy, but if we are attacked again and it is in any way related to his failure to secure our borders [including having a system to track and deport visa overstays] after 9/11, Bush will certainly not be honored as among our great Presidents.

I won't waste my time going over your silly laundry list of "accomplishments," many of which would have happened regardless of who was in office, e.g., Brought back our EP-3 intel plane and crew from China without any bribes or bloodshed.

Great Post. Couldn’t of said it better. The misery these “Savage” idiots have caused is just now getting through to them. Two years from now the “problem” will be an entirely new one: more Latinos, less border coverage, more Democraps in office. More Socialism/Communism big, big, government. Thanks to Michael Savage and his idiot followers.

I agree...I’m sick and tired of these Bush haters. These post lately look more like the commie lefties. What’s happened here? This same kind of crapola was taking place at the end of Reagan’s term...Shame on Them...herd of animals...

The humble advice I’d give Dubya is to remember something he surely
heard during his boyhood in Texas:

“Lay down with dogs...get up with fleas.”

His dalliances with the likes of Ted Kennedy demonstrate he’s fogotten
that truism.

Our borders and ports are more protected then is openly talked about (and rightfully so). Think outed NSA Operations.

Are you living in a parallel universe? You need to hear what the BP agents are saying or the Minutemen who are on the border. You can only spin reality so far.

If you think the minutemen are informed about NS operations it is you that is trying to spin reality.

The guys mean well. I agree with some (maybe even most) of what they are looking to do. But they don't have a clue regarding NS type Ops concerning our ports or borders. I'll leave it at that.

Furthermore there is a difference between Mexican's crossing our borders and true NS threats crossing. I am not going to get into an open debate on the differences, nor the how's and who's and such...

If you seriously believe AQ and their mimics could easily cross our borders & ports, bring WMDs or even smaller dirty equivalents....and they simply haven't because they are being nice......So be it.

"2. Saddam Hussein is now in prison."

WOW did that POS come back to life??

Virtually everything you tout as W's accomplishments were done in his first term. I have no issues with that. It is clear he saved his NAU and NWO agenda for his second term.

Let's try this:

1. The spending is so out of control even the Dems are jealous.The Federal Government has expanded under him like no other time in our history. Not even WW2 saw such a massive increase in Gvmnt power and size.

2. The WOT is a joke. It is being fought like it is a Stratego game being played by two teenagers.

3. The cost of keeping Gonzales in place will be another round of gun restrictions. The bill is already in committee.

4. He has fractured the party to the point where HE SINGLEHANDLY has given Hillary the best chance at the WH as she has ever had.

5. He has put into place all but 2 EO's initiating the NAU. Why do you think the military is deployed out of country? It ain't to take Saddam out as stated. The WMD's were a lie.

6. He has done nothing to curb the Chi-com military build-up.

7. The Patriot Act removed many of our freedoms - unnecessarily. The FBI is out of control and he pats them on the back.

No one forget about the veto dimwit. Read the article. It says that it’s the end of the PROACTIVE part of Bush’s presidency. Bush is an irrelevent lame duck with declining support. History will almost certainly not treat Bush’s time in office kindly.

His presidency has accomplished much on that list - And in those few cases where he hasn't...he has pushed for the conservative cause on them (if that isn't worth anything...then no one should be a conservative because you are only pushing for success not having it).

Furthermore, if you don't like the reality of what GWB has pushed for and accomplished because it doesn't fit well when compared to your shallow and silly list (regarding several issues you don't agree with him on).....To bad.

There has never been one conservative POTUS by your criteria. That is just foolishness.

It’s tough to be a conservative and root for politicians in the present. Most of the politicians that we talk about these days are the bottom feeders of the political spectrum.Today they’re men and woman who stand up for the Constitution,tomorrow they’ve flipped and are as liberal and socialist as D’Craps !!!

Thanks for your excuse making. You’ll make a great RINO enabler one day. If you aren’t already.
