WASHINGTON (CNN) President Barack Obama said Thursday the Bush administration took Americas national security off course in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attack.

Fact is, the Democrats built their political platform out of hatred for Bush and Cheney. That’s all they have. banks are still failing. Jobs are still disapearing. Homes are still being foreclosed on. terrorists are still plotting. and the Democrats are busily attacking the former President and Vice President because that’s all they know how to do. They’re about as useful as a trap door in a canoe.
No, he does not! There are others to do that...Cheney, Rove and Congressman Sam Johnson to name a few.
President Bush took his job seriously for 8 years. He was the adult in charge. He kept this country safe from another terrorist attack in spite of all the ninnys from both sides of the political isle.
Leave him alone and let him live his life in peace!
You’re right.
When the echo of the rhetoric fades and the symbolism loses its sparkle, they are left with nothing but hatred and failed ideas.
The only person taking the U.S. off course is that guy currently living in the White House.
Hey zer0, you wanted this gig, so STFU about the previous act already.
Wonder if he could translate his musings into Austrian for the rest of us simple peasants...
The President is acting like the kid in school who is never on time with his homework.Blames the situation on everyone else and continues to hold out false hopes that he will do better.
I was going to use another phrase,but yours works
He is such a coward.
Too much hawaiian dope induces the permanent pot-head psychosis that is the democrat mantra.
