- Booming economy throughout most of his term -- in fact all of it until the dems regained control of congress ;-)

- Took the fight to al-Qaeda and severely curtailed their operations against the US - no recent planes into buildings killing 3,000 or bombs into ships killing dozens, embassies bombed throughout the planet killing hundreds with token replies.

- Pulled together a coalition of 60 countries to remove a brutal dictator from Iraq that had killed 100,000 of his own women and children, offered comfort to bin Laden, sent an assassin team to kill a US president, and was developing WMDs.

- Appeared to have finally halted North Korea's nuclear weapons program - perhaps the greatest threat to millions. Ended the token US effort with real results.

- Kept international pressure on Iran to halt their nuclear weapons programs.

- Pursued elements of al-Qaeda throughout the globe.

- Restored America's pride and strength - enabled French and Italian presidents to be elected on a pro-US platform.

- Bi-partisan effort to improve education with the passage of the no child left behind act.

- Proposed to expand SCHIP to cover needy families and children only to have Pelosi and the dems refuse to vote on it for political gamesmanship.

This is encouraging.......not many folks stand up for Bush.
