The answer to this question is rather broad, as there are many reasons that were NOT reasons why Bush urged the use of force in Iraq. As well, many people may disagree on former President Bush's motivations, so deciding what suspected reasons are valid and which ones are not is up for debate.
President Bush served 2 terms.
George W. Bush is the 43rd President.
George W. Bush was the 43rd president of the United States. The amount of time that he spent on Air Force One is not stated, but it is stated that he spent thirty-two percent of his presidency on vacation.
There is no public record of the exact mileage President Obama logged on Air Force One during his presidency. However, it is estimated that he traveled over 2 million miles on the aircraft.

For the same reasons many other people at the time of his presidency hated Bush. Do an Internet search for Bush's presidency and you'll see many instances of how he was perceived as a horrible president.
I believe he is a better president. Since President Obama is a president during a recession many people think he is bad at his job. But in fact(in my opinion) President Bush caused that, he made many mistakes and it just happened that President Obama was to become the next president.
