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
