Yep, right up there with his dad during the first Gulf War. I remember an SNL skit, "The 1992 Democrat Debate to Determine Who Will Lose to George Bush". Buncha pols arguing about how unqualified they were to be president, and how they shouldn't be picked.
Amazing how quickly things change.
I'd still argue that Bush Jr. was a better choice than AlGore or Kerry, just as McCain or Romney were better choices than Obama. But it's a matter of inches, the choice was between liberal democrats and slightly less liberal democrats.
'Tis why Trump is such a breath of fresh air.

Too bad he didnt do the right thing by denouncing the Satanic Death Cult as the very nexus of worldwide terror instead of propagating the Big Lie and summarily ended all Mohammadan immigration to America, shut down terrorist mosques and seriously reevaluated our policies towards all nations that supported this evil... just for starters.I remember thinking at the time that I was glad we had Bush as Prez instead of Al Gore. I think even some 'rats said as much. Looking back at Bush's "War on Terror", his declaration that "Islam is a religion of peace", his keeping Norm Mineta as Transportation secretary, etc, I don't think it would have made any difference which Uniparty candidate had won.

I’m with you 100%. I would still vote for Bush, not even .001% I wouldn’t.
But I will say, that highlights the absolute contempt I feel for people like Gore and Kerry to say that, because my opinion of George Bush at this time is pretty damn low!

He also flung our borders open instead of buckling down on who was getting in here and on the VISA overstays. He basically did nothing as far as I can tell.

Apparently Bush Senior was meeting Muslims when the attack happened.Citation?

We really blew the opportunity to stop islamofascism.IMHO, that opportunity was sown when the Congress led by Teddy and John F'n Kerry decided we must lose the Vietnam War and made sure of it; and then Jummah Cahtah threw the Shah under the bus and installed the Ayatollah. Jihadists in the Middle East easily recognized the vacuum and rushed to fill it.

I have never seen an instance of a man gaining so much support, then throwing it all away, with both hands. His support of the Clintons among other such BS has made him persona non grata.We dread to believe we were so, so conned by this seemingly nice man.

Yes, I think one of the real tests is this. If they were silent during Obama’s terms in office, then they have no right to a voice now.
Screw ‘em.

Sure made me feel like a fool. But then again, I am often more trusting of people than perhaps I should be...
As I said in another post, I would still take him over the alternatives offered, but that isn’t saying much...

I would agree with that...
We lacked then and still lack the will to fix that mistake.

Although there’s a long way to go, over the past 17 years we’ve made some progress in the necessary objective of eradicating this ROT (i.e., Religion of Terror) from the face of the Earth. Watching these videos I just pray that America which was so savagely attacked and is the last best hope for civilized society does not elect leaders who are too weak, too unwise or too callous to do what must be done to prevent this from ever happening again.

It looks like to me that plastic surgery is up with her face.
It’s just tight, not a lack of concern on her part, I think.
