I think Bush was a decent person as a president, and thought he was acting in our best interest. That being said he was a lousy president, but probably better then the other choices. He was anti gun, just kept it in check to keep his legacy and support. I did not think the wars were stupid, but not well thought out. We should have demolished Afghanistan and left, and we should have decimated Iraq instead of fighting PC after taking down Hussein. Then we should have left them no choice but to be a base for the allies or a leveled desert. Iraq was strategic but was later messed up by both Bush and Obama. I don't understand why we are still in Afghanistan, especially since we already know we can't win, and have stated we are pulling out. So get out already. Everyday that passes Obama looks more and more like Tricky Dick Nixon.
