Many people blame Bush simply because he is of the opposition party.

Some people blame Bush because of what he has done, or failed to do -- or what they think he should have done and didn't.

George used the search for Osama to drag this country into a war with the Middle East and lost focus on his main objective.

We probably won't have a decent American President until we can elect one that actually proves he cares about the American public and can restore faith in the Oval Office.

There is no comparison between Lincoln and Bush.

Everything?
No no, just the things he is responsible for:
The Iraq War, Katrina's mismanagement, torture, Guantanamo Bay, wiretapping.
