TexasTiger 12,969 Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 The Highlight of Bush Presidency will be a landslide re-election in 2004. I certainly understand your belief that Bush has had no meaningful highlights during his first term. On that, we apparently agree. I would say Bush's highlight was on Jan. 20, 2001. Later that night, however, the perv tried to take his daughter's strapless dress down at a Innaugural Ball-- its been downhill from that point. http://www.sptimes.com/News/012101/State/F...oin_in_da.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TitanTiger 20,506 Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 My personal highlights: • No Child Left Behind act...and don't blame Bush on funding levels. While it was still the biggest federal increase in education spending in recent memory, it's Congress that appropriates the dollars, not the President. The testing and other requirements were a huge step in the right direction. • The tax cuts. With the economy going into recession before any of his policies even got passed, much less would have any effect on things, plus the attacks of 9/11, without the tax relief this economy would still be in the toilet. • No further terrorist attacks on American soil, though most people expected 9/11 just to be the first in a series of attacks. • Pushed for the first ever prescription drug benefit for seniors on Medicare. Took 4 decades of Democrat hot air and actually made it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was golden after 9/11 and got what he wanted. You don't believe that one, do you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanTiger 20,506 Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 I think all of those things are vast improvements over how things were in those areas before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The blind hatred of millions on the left. Etc., Etc.. You got any proof education improved "markedly", or at all? Managed 9/11? He flew around the country clueless. Oh, you mean the Bullhorn thing? Haven't we milked that non-event enough already? Blind hatred? This President was once given the highest approval rating of all time. I was one of them. He blew it. His approval may have been blind, but the disapproval is from those of us with our eyes wide open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKW 86 7,433 Posted September 18, 2004 Author Share Posted September 18, 2004 Education: Increased funding 25% Nationwide. He handled 9/11 faster than FDR did Pearl Harbor. I rest my case, AU Brother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigermike 3,044 Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 I would have to say that there are now 53,888,368 people in two countries that are now FREE and have a chance to live their lives FREE. That is a pretty big accomplishment. Granted there is much to do in both of those countries, but they at have a chance now.
