Street Talk for January 12, 2009

Question of the Week: With President George W. Bush in his last two weeks in office, how would you evaluate his performance as president?

“Bad. The whole time it was bad. Bad how? The economy; you blow up a country and then you go over and fix it? Give them money, then tell them its OK, then blow them up again! He did terrible. It was all a grudge thing from his father, I feel.”
— Lisa Scott, cashier, East Meredith



“I don’t know, I just don’t like George W. Bush. I just think he did a really bad job at everything.”
— Matt Campbell, student, West Oneonta





“A complete failure. He was an a [jerk]. He’s not nice; he’s not intelligent. Third off, he surr o u n d s h i m s e l f with Dick Cheney and Rumsfeld ...”
— Nico Meyering, student, Oneonta





“I feel like it’s laughable, the fact that there is so many presi d e n t i a l abuses of power that went on. It makes you wonder how he got elected twice.”
— Dominique Thomas, student, Middletown



``I’m a big Obama fan, so I’m just happy Bush is getting out of office. It’s not that he’s bad, he just got lucky. That whole 9/11 thing, if that wasn’t a government conspiracy ... There’s so many different ways to look at it.
I stay neutral, I guess.”
— Jesse Campbell, student, West Oneonta

“I’m saying that there’s no way that Obama can do any worse than George W. Bush did. I’m more than willing to give him that chance.”
— Phillip Soules, student, West Laurens
