The things that worry me most about him aren't his service absenteeism. It's the deficit, unemployment, future likely bankrupting of the Social Security System by his policies, and the questionable practice of refunding taxes while expanding the budget. I would rather pay my taxes and not let the economy fall apart.
I am also really aggravated about the exporting of jobs out of this country; however, I think that if that is caused by NAFTA, both the Democrats and the Republicans are to blame. Is anyone in either party going to reverse that? Isn't half of Silicon Valley unemployed now because of that? Many of the largest American companies' tech support phone lines are located now overseas. I miss the lower unemployment rate we had before Bush came into office but I'm not sure if it's his fault or would have happened the same under Gore. I'm not sure how far 9/11 impacted the things I tend to blame on Bush, which might have happened to any president. -lisa
