I am very disappointed in President Bush. If I had known he would have turn out this way I would have never voted to reelect him again.
“If I had known he would have turn out this way I would have never voted to reelect him again.”
But we did know.
We “fringe” paleoconservatives, libertarians and others who lived in Texas were well aware of what W was, based on his performance as TX Governor, before he was even the R prez nominee. We tried to warn but were attacked and ridiculed for doing so.
Newsmax published an article about him in 1999 which listed several key actions taken by Gov W to expand State government size and scope. A TX state teacher’s union leader went so far as to refer to him as a “Texas Democrat”...in other words a Lyndon Johnson Democrat. Which is what he was and is, just like his wife and daughters are. And just like his Dad and Jeb are. Anyone wondering why Bush kept quiet during the Obama admin should wonder no longer.
Want a sample of what Bush was about even as prez?

I would have voted for Ann Richards for Governor over this guy, if I knew then what I know now.
