Bush did some great things and I supported him 100% on the war on terror, including the battle to free Iraq from its mass murdering dictator, but TARP and other domestic spending knocked him way down my list. Spending billions of taxpayer dollars fighting AIDS in Africa was inexcusable, IMO. The money should have been spent in the US fighting diseases that are not mostly avoidable through behavior modification.

Bush 41 would have made my list had he not reneged on his pledge to not raise taxes and paved the way for Bill Clinton's two terms. GHWB, with the help of Cheney, Powell and other administration officials, prosecuted the Gulf War as effectively as any US administration has ever led a war effort.

Not much to disagree with you there! I did not agree with G.W. on his immigraton policies, some of his education policies ('No Child Left Behind'), but believe that what he did in the fight against terror and securing our homeland, in my mind, far out weighs anything I disagree with him on and keeps him in the top 10.
