From a conservative's point of view, and ignoring what happened after he left office wasn't George W. Bush the best president ever?

He just looks like the best President ever with what we have now.

What events happening after he left are you talking about? Regardless no, he was NOT the best president ever. Not even close. You have some misunderstandings of Bush you seem to be basing this on or you are just being facetious for some reason.

No, he wasn't the best president ever, not from this conservative's point of view. He did many things Obama is doing now, such as meddling in other countries affairs that don't really affect us. Acting as advisors is one thing, but all this needless fighting is another, which is costing us billions. He lied (like Clinton). He lied about the reason for war and the location of WMD. Making mistakes is one thing while in office, but lying to the American people is another. And, in 2007, when America was getting over the recession of the early part of the decade, he wanted to bring in another wave of Mexicans to add to the labor force. Another thing, I can't stand hypocrisy. The current republican party points fingers at the democrats but yet, they do the same thing in office, and so do the Democrats.

Until we break this mold and politicians become accountable for their actions, the US will continue to slide. Other countries, such as the UK (where I also hold citizenship) have coalitions where parties work together. This be damned in America because it leads to shut downs.

Good presidents don't leave the next with eleven million undocumented workers, in financial crisis, forty million uninsured citizens, an unpredictable Iraqi civil war, and the job of finishing off the worst terrorist in world history seven years after murdering 3,000 innocent Americans, from a patriotic point of view
