Can you list reasons and articulate exactly WHY you hate/loath/dislike U.S. PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH?

In no particular order:

1. The No Child Left Behind act he pushed through turns the entire educational system into a system that teaches students one thing, that is of no use to them once they leave school: how to pass machine-gradable tests. As such, it's anti-educational.

2. He violated international law (and therefore the Constitution), as well as every principle of decency by ordering the torture of tens of thousands of people.

3. He spent months trying to push through a plan that would have been the beginning of the end of one of the most successful programs ever: Social Security.

4. He illegally and immorally invaded a country, bombed it's people, rounded people up to be tortured (and later released, as they weren't dangerous), fired the army, failed to secure ammo and other explosive materials, fomented violence between groups that had been living in peace, put the resources of the country in the hands of thieves, appointed liars, thieves, and murderers, that the Iraqi people had no respect for to the Council, destroyed the country, and refused to outfit the troops he sent with life-saving equipment to do so.

4. He pushed through environmental legislation that hurts the environment and continually tries to expand the sonar testing that slaughters marine mammals, among other things.

5. He habitually says that everyone who disagrees with him is a terrorist who hates America (even though that is the vast majority of Americans).

6. He vetoed medical research that would have improved the quality of life of tens of millions of Americans.

7. He routinely appoints corrupt cronies into positions of power, where the damage they do cannot be calculated (though Katrina showed the worst, as his appointee did nothing while people suffered and died).

8. He uses the apparatus of the government for propaganda and other political purposes.

9. The only concern he has shown for any human who wasn't a personal buddy was breaking up his vacation to sign the Shivo legislation (that was opposed by over 80% of Americans).

10. He is habitually condescending and patronizing when he talks to the American public -- as though he knows all and we are all morons.

11. He routinely mis-uses the military as a back-drop for his speeches.

12. He forbade media from showing pictures of the coffins of those his loathsome war murdered.

13. He is stupid and ignorant AND arrogant; refusing to listen to reason, knowing little, capable of understanding little, yet believing he knows and understands all; and his character is the very lowest, exhibiting no humanity or compassion or sense of fairness or justice, or respect for the Constitution he swore to uphold and defend; he is a habitual liar, is anti-reason, anti-fact, and anti-science.

You know, you wanted to know, but say I need to keep it short. The above is a grossly incomplete list. They're just the first reasons that sprang to mind. To read more of why I loathe him, go to my profile, and click questions I've answered about him.

Notice, I didn't take an earlier rant and paste it; I wrote this one from scratch.

I wonder how many of the ones who claim Bush lied and that's why they have uncontrollable hatred towards him actually feel the same way about Clinton, who was proven to be a liar. No one has proven that Bush lied about anything, but that doesn't stop them from saying he's a liar. That's psychotic behavior.

I'm always intrigued how many ignorant people have such pent up hatred that must be directed at someone. They don't seem to care about the truth, but they believe the lies the media feeds them that is meant to create this hatred.

It's amazing, but rather sad really. I guess it's easier to hate someone when you're ignorant of the facts.

Simple answer, there is NO reason whatsoever to hate Bush.

1)He has NOT lied, and if u think he has, where is ur proof?

-he simply followed evidence that was given to em.

-the dems supported the invasion just as much as the Rep.ns, except the Dems changed their mind like always and the Repubs. stayed the same.

2)Bush has never ordered the torture of ANYONE, quit trying to use these powerful phrases without facts to back them up.

3)He is fully compotent, just not a very good public speaker.

-You all shoudl be afraid of great public speakers, based on history (hitler, stalin, etc, etc etc.)

4) He DID lower taxes tremendously to the aid of the lower class, and I appreciate him for that.

-Now Pelosi wants to do away with this and raise taxes that will squeeze the lower class and create an even larger gap b/w rich and poor......isnt that what theyre against?

5) I dare any of you to proof me wrong. WITH FACTS!! anyone can sit up here and say what most of these guys are saying which is the same things that MSNBC are saying. these things are pure BS. just use your common sense and actually have something to back up your ridiculous accusations.

And as always....Think before you speak.

-God Bless

He, in short, doesn't represent anything but puppetry for big money interests..his reactions time and time again to do something for the people have been scutteled off. Big business interests at any price...it doesn't represent the people at all. Privitization has limits..profitering has a place...not in medical care or in emergency management programs. Most efforts of his administation have been to keep the working class on the bottom, protect the weathy making it easier for them to get even weathier.. Becoming obvious who is really running the country and it isnt the people who make it up.

well, I don't hate him, I just think he's incompetent... my two biggest issues are related...

overall... he doesn't seem to think before he acts... Harriet Meyers? the Ports deal? I mean this was a couple of years ago, but this was the point where I really realized... he just doesn't care enough about decisions to even think them through properly... even Republicans were like "uh, what are you doing?"

then the second issue is: we didn't get Osama... kill 3,000 in NYC... you should go down... I don't care where you are now, what power you do or don't have... there is no excuse that we went to Iraq first (which al-queda is now helping to desabilize, BECAUSE WE DIDN'T FINISH THE JOB OF DESTROYING AL-QUEDA FIRST)

overall... this attitude has appeared over and over again... Katrina, his nominations (bolton, brownie, gonzalez and, of course, Meyers), the whole Iraq situation and each reaction/lack of reaction to situations... and then he seems to fire people that disagree with his rash actions, even if they have reasons? powell, several generals, U.S. attorneys

Hes a liar, a warmonger, decietful to his people, he wont even give a sworn statement about 911.Hes a all about money and oil, he doesnt care about anything, but Carlyle group, and halliburtone getting filthy rich, off Americans dying in a country where were not wanted. Oh yeah hes an idiot.

Bush has limited Civil liberties

Bush has either lied or mislead Americans to start a war

Bush does not compromise, and don't tell me that we don't compromise, the United States would not exist without several compromises.

Just to get started...

Nobody hit on the big one. Gave that big corporation owned by the great democrat Family the Johnson's (LBJ relatives) Haliburton, un bid contracts, yes that's right Dick Cheney is a closet Democrat

He lied to Congress and the American people and invaded Iraq just to manipulate the price of Oil so his buddies in Texas and Mobilhoma could make billions

Being lied to is the worst thing and not keeping enough troops there in the beginning to get the job done so there wouldn't been so many troops lost of life.
