I voted for bush the first time, I voted for him the second time. If you judge him on his first term I think he was a great prez, looking at his second term, I would say he lost his swagger and let other people dictate his term too much. he lost his decisive attitude, and then decided to eliminate the notion of NOT SPENDING. bush is suppose to be a republican, yet he created the largest budget in history....sheesh

However, its much too soon to judge bush on his overall effictiveness. 10 years from now I think people will look more favorably on bush. right now there is too much venom in the water for people to think objectively.
