The George W. Bush administration has become one of the most controversial in American history. The President who enjoyed a post-9/11 approval rating as high as 88 per cent ranked almost as low in his second term as any President in history. Fuelling the controversies have been his speeches and public statements ("axis of evil," "mission accomplished," etc.). In this volume the most critical issues of this presidential era are brought to the forefront, examined through primary-document excerpts from presidential speeches, public statements, and letters, and from opposing congressional arguments. Over 70 primary documents on 36 issues address the Bush administration's economic, domestic, and foreign policy, and response to terrorism, including: the Enron trial; social security reform; 'No Child Left Behind'; the Patriot Act; the Abu Ghraib scandal; the response to Hurricane Katrina; the Kyoto Climate Protocol; faith-based and community initiatives; the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Introductory sections set the context for each document, and extensive lists of web sites and further reading sources supplement the material. This volume is an excellent resource for helping students understand events that will affect the U.S. for years to come.
