Bush was better than Gore and Kerry. Although his nation building exercises aren’t looking too good now. We should have taken the Taliban out and allow the Northern Alliance take over Afghanistan. With Iraq, same thing with Saddam but allow the Ba’athist government to maintain their hold over the government so we can get out quickly.
> Bush is a war criminal. <
I agree 100%. And the sad irony is that Putin is playing Bush’s old role here. Bush II invaded Iraq using the flimsiest of reasons. Hundreds of thousands of people died miserable deaths or were maimed for life.
And now Putin is invading Ukraine for the flimsiest of reasons. I don’t think Putin has matched Bush’s body count, yet. But Putin’s war is still young.

According to some around here, Churchill was a natural born citizen because he had an American mother.
Curiously Congress appears to have not been aware of that as they bestowed “honorary” citizenship on him in the 1950’s.
Trump was right, again…about Bush.
That would make Putin a modern day Hitler but how many other nations did Putin overrun before he threatened Ukraine?
Sir Winston Churchill had a long career of service to his King before becoming Prime Minister.
Zelensky danced around on the stage in lingerie and high heels, playing the piano with his Johnson before he became the President.
“W is a moron.”
So am I because I voted for him in 2000.
I ditched him in 2004 but he still beat Lurch.(Voted for a 3rd party candidate)
Neither Bush or Kerry “types” have anything to offer our country in 2022, let alone the next decade.
16 or so years ago all this Bush bashing would’ve led to a ban, maybe far less time. Interesting how cons eat their own with a few years.
I agree, but in the 9th inning people like him, McCain, Ryan and others, let us down.
Is this the same President that told us that Islam was a Religion of Peace. He got that one right for sure. I wonder if he meant the Amish or Quakers.
“ i voted for this Globalist Butthole and His Agenda 21 Father!!!
God, Forgive me!”
It was between him and manbearpig. Six one way, half dozen the other
“16 or so years ago all this Bush bashing would’ve led to a ban, maybe far less time. Interesting how cons eat their own with a few years.”
You’re correct by a 100%.
I lurked on Free Republic for 6 or 7 years before joining in 2009. I enjoyed the commentary from older more mature conservatives, many who are no longer with us.
However, I thought the Iraq war was stupid so I didn’t join until “rah rah war guy” cooled off.(The financial crisis got his attention)
I've been here a long time and don't recall ever hearing conservatives refer to themselves as 'cons'.
Makes my radar ping . . .
Ping back, Bush was a hero of the center-right, and is now the fashionable one to bash.
You’ve got to be kidding me.
Should’ve let Al win…
Only when it’s deserved.
It’s not like we disappear those we vote for who fall out of fashion like you leftists.
That’s my main recollection of the time. Gore? Kerry? HAHAH
