In Final Months in Office, Bush Is Burdened but Still Confident
This article discusses President Bush’s level of confidence despite the obstacles he faced during his presidency. The article talks about how Bush’s presidency started with the “worst terrorist attack on American soil” that shocked the world, and would now end his presidency with the “worst financial crisis” since the Great Depression. In between, he faced Hurricane Katrina and its damage to New Orleans and to top it off, the war in Iraq. Despite all the obstacles during his presidency, the article says that Bush is still confident of the decisions he made and will continue to make in the final months of his presidency.
I was never a big fan of President Bush and his decisions. Many of his actions have been questionable and hated by many. Despite all the criticism he faced, Bush’s confidence is something I respect. He is still a human and to still have that level of confidence is one characteristic that makes a good president.
