I may have possibly revealed my own bias in the title of this thread, but YOU get to decide, and to be fair, there are options other than Bad and Worst. You can even select Best if you are crazy (don't let me influence your vote -- select Best if you really want to, you crazy nutjob). Whatever you vote for, please post a reason. If you think he is bad, why? If you think he is good, what are his accomplishments and who do you think has done a worse job?

For example:

I think George W. Bush is among the worst of presidents. He is not the uniter he claimed to be and has been the most divisive president ever. He did not have an easy time considering the 9/11 terrorist attack, but that was one event nearly 7 years ago, and we should be beyond that by now. I feel he used that event to get us into an unnecessary war that has cost us dearly. I think he lied about the reasons for invading Iraq. And when the war started going poorly, he did not do what was necessary to get it back on track. Now it may be too late to salvage that situation. I think he has created more terrorists than he has eliminated. He wasn't willing to pay for the things he wanted --- his tax cuts and this war have driven us into dangerous levels of debt, and now our economy is under threat from the debt load. He worked to weaken important environmental acts such as Clean Air, Clean Water and the Endangered Species act. He worked to PREVENT individual states such as California from tryng to deal with some of these environmental problems. He has failed to act on some of our most important problems such as climate change and other environmental problems, Social Security, Medicare, healthcare costs, national debt, and fair trade issues. He appointed incompetent boobs to very important posts. He worked to weaken our civil rights. He ruined our national image abroad. Energy prices are now through the roof.

After this list of failures, I cannot think of one accomplishment. I must be overlooking something. Can anyone think of one accomplishment?

Please vote in the poll and state what you think are Bush's failures and accomplishments, why you rank him as you do, and who you think has done a better or worse job as president.
