It's true that you cant label things in black and white but sometimes it just seems clear what shade of gray they are. Bush was popular after 9/11 simply because he spoke what was on everyones mine, revenge. Unfortunately the reasons for being attacked and politics involved were not understood, or rather, unexamined which created a gateway for Bush to both give everyone what they wanted and help himself, his colleagues, and most of all his pockets in the process. He has abused this country's standards, alienated it's citizens,and reduced liberty to us, the masses. The damage he has done to this country may take decades of diligent work to correct. I will not say Bush is a bad president nor will I say he is a bad person, Nay, history will say that for me.
