"There ought to be limits to freedom"(George W. Bush) these are the words of the leader of the United States of America, George W. Bush. A man who wants to limit freedom, which is defined to be limitless, is not the type of man fit to govern a country, and should not be permitted for re-election, if not revoked of his office sooner. George W. Bush's presidency has been the source of many flawed decisions, which spawned many of America's economic, political, and military hardships.

Your essay is well written. But...
I must ask you, in his position, what would you have done? The problems with Iraq actually date back to Bill Clinton's Presidency. It's said that the whole 9/11 incident could have been avoided had Clinton not sent Bin Laden back to his homeland. This, you forgot to mention.
