Has *'s second term been more or less disasterous than you thought it would be?

On one hand, we had Katrina, a borderline depression, and still no Bin Laden or end to the Iraq quagmire. On the other hand, he hasn't (knock on wood) started a nuclear...excuse me, nookyular, war, which is a welcome relief.

2. I don't think a "nukulaur" war was ever on his agenda
Robbing us blind was definatly on the agenda - so if you're a repub, his second term has been a raging success.

Of course, the rest of us are just raging...

3. Same old disastrousness.
We're staring a 12-13T national debt in the face.

Horrid.

4. less actually disastrous, but more recognized disastrous
i'm glad people are finally recognizing him as a miserable failure. it's wonderful to see republicans hang their heads in shame.

i'm amazed that even the media is acknowledging how pathetic he is.

6. NO! - Worse
I knew they would pull something to go out in glory.
This last harrah crisis has been planned for a long time. The attempts to steal social security were part of the deal. Get that money in the Stock Market and then let this happen and poof, all their dreams achieved in one swoop.

10. I felt sick in 2000 when I new Bush was in
I had a gut feeling this was trouble even though i still thought 4 years was all I still knew it was trouble . 9/11 confimed this and the rest was just all an extension of 9/11 . That was when the doors were open to all of this insanity.

Now there are no doors or hinges just a wind tunnel sucking everything into the hands of the corporate power structure.

I would have never imagined things would become this bad so fast after 9/11 or that he could hold office for another 4 years.

I felt people would wise up but it seems they didn't.

12. About what I expected from the nincompoop.
He'd already sown the seeds of the economic catastrophe in the bottomless rathole of Iraq & Afghanistan.
