A lot of that stuff happened later. People were too shocked at the time of the attack and search for survivors to be very political or divisive.

Well, he was better than Al Gore.
Nevertheless, the Bushes are collaborators. Way too nice to Clintons and other devils.
Entitled Jeb, who got on his toes to vie for the nomination, and sat on his hands while Terri Schiavo was murdered slowly, is a globalist who endorses the gradual invasion of America and replacement of its citizens with looters and moochers who will serve the elite.
Trump improved the USA in so many aspects, and GWB hasn’t a good word to say about him.

This is the final straw for me. Not that I was a big Bush fan since he screwed the pooch after doing some good in the early part of his presidency. But this is just a towering outrage, a vicious betrayal.

Your service and the service of your fellow Troopers kept the USA safe for two decades. Thank you.

I stopped paying attention to the War on Terror when Obama traded five Taliban Leaders for a deserter in 2014. I was amazed when I found out (just a month ago) that Afghanistan was pretty much stable with only 2,500 US Troopers. You and your fellow Troopers did one heck of a job for 20 years! Do not let a piss poor, incompetent, corrupt POTUS diminish your service.

Was he better? A true Conservative may have won in 2004, after 12 years of Dem rule. They are a pleauge on the country.

Afghanistan and Iraq is where we slaughtered the Islamists wholesale

In Iraq we toppled Saddam which eventually led to more radical Islamists.

Re: "until Biden clumsily put an end to it [the Afghan war]"

I can remember when Byron York - the author of this link - used to pretend he was a Conservative.

LOL - Biden's withdrawal from Afghanistan was "clumsy?"

I don’t recall it that way— Bush was flying around in an airplane, ended up in Nebraska, they were mocking him all day; they already hated him from 2000 election if nothing else.

Bush is a disgrace but

He’s still mad at President Donald J Trump for batting down his little low energy brother Jeb.

He is NOT a conservative or Republican.

Please be quiet and GO AWAY !!!

No bigger fool could be commander in chief if he says “victory will not look like that of our fathers and grandfathers. There will be no ceremony on the deck of a battleship.....” I probably have it mostly correct. That was GWB. He started wars that he had no clue how to win.

He was a shameful man then, and continues to be a shameful man.

"The Adams Family was pretty good."

Yes indeed...
They contributed more positive things to the former Nation's well-being than any of the aforementioned political gaggle...

They were similar in their "disdain for pluralism," Bush said, their "disregard for human life," and their "determination to defile national symbols."

The Trump protesters have a disregard for human life? What in hell is he talking about? Does he believe the story about the policeman getting hit in the head with a fire extinguisher, months after it was debunked? Could he possibly be that clueless? I don't know what else he could be talking about. It's a freaking head slapper.

"You FORGOT the BIDEN CRIME FAMILY that is WORSE than some of them already!! "

You are so correct...
However, by the time I finished getting to the bottom of my list (most of whom I'm old enough (87.8) to remember clearly), I was too angry to continue...

The Biden family is definitely the most "gangster-like" ever in the WH...
We might as well have allowed the Sopranos to have the WH... Although, the Sopranos were better Americans and loved the country...

“ Bush showed an astonishing lack of self-awareness”

That’s the one thing he is good at along with being STUPID.

He is an embarrassment to thinking human beings.

The leftist groups are the ones that destroyed historic statues, and demanded that others be removed.

All the more reason Bush doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

Funny how after the fact everyone jumps on the Bush is (at best) a RINO bandwagon. When I said that during his presidency the estrogen fueled day in the life of crowd did their best to shut me up by whining me to death.
